Keeping it Real During the Holidays: p.s. I Love the Grinch! Patricia (she/her) dives into the emotional and sensory whirlwind of navigating change as an AuDHDer during the holiday season. She unpacks the exhaustion that comes from shifting family dynamics, unpredictable routines, kitten chaos, people coming and going, and the desire to show up with more capacity than she actually has. Patricia speaks candidly about shutdowns, resentment, communication misfires and boundary-setting. This episode invites listeners to honor their own wiring, acknowledge their limits, and give themselves permission to navigate change on their own terms—especially when the world is loud, messy, and demanding far too much. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · The emotional weight of constant change during the holidays · Why autistic and AuDHD nervous systems struggle with unpredictability · How people coming and going can destabilize daily rhythms · Sensory overwhelm from decorations, noise, and social expectations · The shutdown mode that follows too much "peopling" · Resentment that canform when needs aren't communicated directly · That awkward dance between wanting to show up and feeling over capacity · Kitten chaos as both joy and sensory overload · Feeling responsible for everyone's experience (hello, people-pleasing!) · The grief of not feeling safe to voice your values or boundaries · Family conflict and the ripple effects on your emotional regulation · Why inconsistency can be draining for some neurodivergent brains · The need for predictability, routines, and familiar sensory anchors · Internalized pressure to be "easygoing," especially around holidays · The truth-telling wisdom of the body when burnout hits · "Harvest feast" (aka Thanksgiving) recovery mode · Observing subtle family dynamics that others overlook · Using pacing and gentle self-compassion to navigate the season · How even positive changes can be dysregulating · The reminder that honoring your limits is an act of self-love SOUND BITES · "Change really affects me. I overdid it, and now my body is telling the truth." · "Even things that you enjoy can be dysregulating and overwhelming." · "If someone could respond differently, they would—we're not choosing to have difficulty with change." · "Inconsistency is very difficult for me; it's not about the tree, it's about the mismatch." · "I think what I call depression is really resentment for not being direct." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. PODCAST HOST Patricia Young (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent.

Send us a textDr. Divya keerthy (New York Presbyterian Queens/Weill Cornell Medicine) and Dr. Katherine Nyman (UCSD/Rady Children's, San Diego) discuss their Hot Topics conference experience. Keerthy presents research on prenatal polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon exposure measured via backpack monitors and silicone wristbands during the third trimester. Her longitudinal study tracked infant microbiome at three time points over six months, identifying two air pollutants affecting microbiome development. Nyman highlights interest in the Tiny Baby collaborative, particularly PDA management challenges in extremely premature infants. Both emphasize the value of Hot Topics' evidence-based sessions including "green and rotten apples" that stress-test current practices. They note the conference's focus on moderate preemies (32-34 weekers) who comprise 80% of NICU populations yet receive less research attention.

(Airdate: 12.4.25) On today's episode of Who Cares, we're diving into Hollywood's most unnecessary drama — starting with the Golden Globes, where you can now buy your way into the room for a cool $70,000. (Because nothing screams "prestige" like sitting next to a producer's dentist.) Then we check in on Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton, who shut down breakup rumors the old-fashioned way: with a strategic PDA selfie and zero explanation. And finally, Martha Stewart reminds the world that she's simply Martha — to her daughter, to her grandkids, and apparently to anyone within a 10-foot radius — and she's perfectly fine dropping F-bombs while doing it. Glamour, gossip, and gloriously odd celebrity energy. Voted 6th Best Entertainment News Podcast! Because being #1 is soooo overrated.

In this episode I speak with a mom of a PDA 14-year-old who regulates himself by wrestling his father after school each day, which causes Mom lots of anxiety. Together we use my cost-benefit decision making tool to weigh her options and she then decides a new strategy to try.I hope this episode is helpful for you.

If parenting your child feels like a constant battle—and every strategy you have been told to use only makes things worse—you are not alone. Many families live this struggle daily without realising there is a name for what they are seeing: Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA).In this episode, we speak with Rachel Crutcher and Sarah Stewart from the PDA Society, two experts who have walked this path both personally and professionally. Together, we uncover why everyday demands trigger such intense anxiety, why rewards and consequences backfire, and how a calm-first, collaborative approach can finally bring relief.You will hear the early signs many parents miss—demand avoidance even for things a child usually loves, the need for control, and the familiar pattern of fine at school, meltdown at home. Once you understand PDA through a can't-not-won't lens, everything begins to make sense.Your guides walk you through the practical steps that transform family life: • How to lower demands without lowering expectations • How to spot the hidden “micro-demands” that drain your child before the day has even begun • How humour, choices, and written prompts make requests feel safe • Why treating a PDA child like a “mini adult” (explaining the why, asking permission, collaborating) reduces anxiety instantlyWe also tackle one of the biggest pain points for PDA families: school. You will learn how masking works, which adjustments truly help, and what flexible, trauma-aware practice looks like in real life. If your school's ethos is rigid, we help you recognise when it is not the right fit—and where to turn for support and SEND-law guidance.For families with siblings, we share a simple principle that reduces resentment and restores harmony: use collaborative, low-demand strategies with everyone. It is fair. It is kind. And it works.Finally, we show you where real, ongoing help exists—through the PDA Society's free guidance service, moderated parent communities, self-paced learning hub, professional training, and bespoke school consultations.If you are exhausted, overwhelmed, or unsure what to try next, this episode will give you both clarity and hope. You can understand your child. You can reconnect. And things can get better.If this conversation supports you, follow the show, share it with your community, and leave a review—your story may be the encouragement another parent needs.PDA Society PDA Society Link Tree

Trotzige Kinder, Gewaltausbrüche, Panikattacken, überforderte Eltern und Fachstellen. Was bedeutet es für Familien, wenn Kinder auf jegliche Anforderungen mit Blockaden oder gewalttätigen Wutausbrüchen reagieren? Der 9-jährige Livio ist ein lieber, aufgeweckter Junge – solange er bestimmen kann. Werden an ihn aber Anforderungen gestellt, kann er ausrasten. Seine Eltern und Fachpersonen sind überfordert. Auch die 15-jährige Emilia und der 5-jährige Lion zeigen ein ähnliches Verhalten. Neuere Forschungen begründen die extreme Vermeidung von Anforderungen neurologisch. Das Syndrom wird PDA genannt (Pathological Demand Avoidance, eine krankhafte Vermeidung von Anforderungen). Ob es mit einer Autismus-Spektrum-Störung im Zusammenhang steht, ist umstritten. PDA ist im deutschsprachigen Raum noch wenig erforscht. Schätzungen gehen davon aus, dass nur wenige Kinder von PDA betroffen sind. Umso gravierender sind aber die Folgen für Familien und Umfeld. SRF DOK porträtiert Kinder und Jugendliche, die wegen ihrer PDA-Verhaltensstörung jedes System ans Limit bringen. Erstausstrahlung: 27.11.2025

Most providers still don't recognize ARFID when it's right in front of them. In this episode, Dr. Marianne Miller unpacks why Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder remains so misunderstood—and how that misunderstanding harms children and adults who live with it. Dr. Marianne explains what ARFID really is, how it shows up across neurotypes, and why messages like “just try harder” damage safety, trust, and nervous system regulation. Through a neurodivergent-affirming lens, she explores how bias, pressure, and diet-culture thinking keep ARFID invisible and why it's time for providers to see the reality of this eating disorder. Why This Episode Matters For too long, ARFID has been dismissed as “picky eating.” This episode reframes ARFID as a real, body-based eating disorder rooted in sensory processing, fear, or trauma—not defiance or willpower. Dr. Marianne highlights the emotional and physiological impact of being told to “try harder,” and how that phrase erodes autonomy, increases shame, and dysregulates the body. When we understand ARFID as a nervous-system and safety-based challenge, our entire approach to care changes. Listening replaces forcing. Collaboration replaces control. Compassion replaces shame. Key Topics Covered What ARFID Really Is: Understanding sensory-based, fear-based, and low-interest eating patterns that have nothing to do with dieting or body image. Why Professionals Miss It: How traditional training and diet-culture frameworks erase ARFID from diagnosis and treatment. The Harm of “Try Harder” Messages: Exploring what happens when people are shamed or pressured to eat against their nervous system's limits. The Neurodivergent Lens: How autism, ADHD, and other forms of neurodivergence intersect with eating, safety, and sensory regulation. The Role of Bias: Why marginalized identities—fat, BIPOC, neurodivergent, or gender-diverse people—are more likely to be misunderstood or dismissed. What Support Looks Like: How neurodivergent-affirming, sensory-attuned, and autonomy-based care creates safety and possibility. Who This Episode Is For Therapists, dietitians, and physicians who want to understand ARFID beyond stereotypes. Parents who feel blamed or overwhelmed by their child's restricted eating. Adults who have lived with food fear or sensory eating struggles and never had language for it. Neurodivergent people who want their experiences around food to be seen, validated, and supported. Content Caution This episode includes discussion of eating behaviors, sensory distress, and medical dismissal related to ARFID. Please take care of yourself and listen in a way that feels safe for your body and nervous system.

In this episode of Let's Combinate, Subhi Saadeh breaks down why more engineers in pharma, medical devices, and combination products should seriously consider becoming auditors. Sparked by a question at a PDA conference: “Why don't more technical people lead audits?” This episode explores the gap between technical expertise and true audit competency.Subhi explains how engineers who combine their technical background with audit training often become the most effective auditors. They gain a system-level perspective, understand how design decisions ripple through the QMS, and can identify systemic root causes that others overlook. He also clears up common misconceptions about auditing, including the idea that it's just paperwork or checklist work, and reframes it as one of the fastest ways to build regulatory fluency, strengthen quality systems understanding, and expand career versatility across industries.The episode closes with practical steps for how engineers can get started: shadowing internal audits, learning audit frameworks and methodologies, taking formal training, and seeking mentorship from experienced auditors.Timestamps:00:00 – Why Engineers Should Consider Auditing01:10 – How Auditing Expands Technical Perspective05:26 – Misconceptions & Why Engineers Avoid Auditing11:25 – How to Start Your Audit Journey13:27 – Final Thoughts: Seeing the System, Not Just the SpecSubhi Saadeh is the Founder and Principal of Let's Combinate BioWorks and the host of Let's Combinate: Drugs + Devices. With a background spanning Quality, Manufacturing Operations, and R&D, he has supported the development and launch of hardware devices, disposable systems, and drug–device combination products across vaccines, generics, and biologics at some of the industry's largest medical device and pharma organizations.Subhi currently serves as the Working Group Chair for the Rx-360 Combination Products Working Group and previously served as the International Working Group Chair for the Combination Products Coalition (CPC).

Jo Jo Siwa BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.JoJo Siwa has packed the past week with headline-making appearances, business moves, and some memorable drama, signaling another busy chapter for the pop sensation. On the business and performance front, JoJo is set to light up Black Friday with a free noon concert at the Mall of America, debuting her brand-new holiday single “Message to the World (Little Drummer Girl),” as reported by 365 Twin Cities. Not only will fans experience her trademark high-energy performance, but VIP upgrades include signed holiday gifts, feeding both merchandise and fan engagement. This special event, set for November 28, lands amid a string of VIP dance class meet-and-greet appearances at major dance studios throughout the Midwest in the days that follow—Aspirations Dance Company in Illinois, Larkin Dance Studio in Minnesota, and CORE Dance in Omaha according to Eventbrite listings. Each session features choreography to her new song and exclusive signed merch, showing JoJo's direct connection with superfans and young dancers.JoJo's public life, of course, is never without social buzz and relationship drama. The “Dance Moms” alum's now-high-profile romance with British reality star Chris Hughes remains a hot topic, following their splashy red carpet debut at the Dancers Against Cancer Gala of the Stars last month in Beverly Hills, covered by AOL and Cosmopolitan. JoJo was honored with the Humanitarian Award for her decade of charity work, with Hughes presenting—cue plenty of red carpet PDA and affectionate posts to both their Instagram accounts. This marks a major personal and public milestone, making their relationship official in front of Hollywood's eyes. Notably, this gala appearance came after JoJo publicly confirmed her relationship with Hughes in The Guardian, describing it as “a beautiful connection,” and after their families were introduced backstage at her latest UK tour stops.Of course, headlines haven't all been rosy. JoJo was forced to address audience behavior during the European Infinity Heart Tour's opening night in Dublin, demanding fans stop distracting her boyfriend Chris Hughes with selfies during her show—a moment that quickly spread on TikTok and Just Jared. The relationship with Hughes itself remains under a social media microscope given its messy origin—JoJo's previous partner, Kath Ebbs, discussed on The Mitch Churi Chat Show podcast their emotional fallout and accidental matchmaking of JoJo with Chris, which led to negative fan backlash and drama that even involved JoJo's mother going after the Aussie podcaster online, as reported by Star Observer.Amid the noise, JoJo's media presence rolls on strong: she's scheduled for an appearance on “Live with Kelly and Mark” on November 28 and keeps her millions of Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube fans fed with behind-the-scenes content, event updates, and personal posts. Her brand collaborations and merchandising empire also hold steady, with hair bows and holiday gear featuring prominently in recent promotions. Current estimates peg her net worth at around fourteen million dollars according to several reputable entertainment profiles, reinforcing JoJo's position as not just a performer but a formidable business force.None of these developments show signs of slowing down JoJo's momentum. Each public appearance and social media moment, especially those tied to her evolving personal story and new music, continue to shape her image for years to come—with her star power and fan devotion only growing louder by the week.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

In this episode of SLP Coffee Talk, Hallie chats with Libby Hill, a consultant speech-language pathologist with over 40 years of experience, about the fascinating connection between pathological demand avoidance (PDA) and selective mutism. Libby shares why students with PDA aren't just being “naughty,” how their brilliant yet challenging language profiles can fool us into expecting too much, and why creating the right environment is everything. You'll learn practical strategies like the “projects on pause folder” and why traditional therapy goals need to flip the script to focus on what the team needs to do, not what the student needs to fix. Whether you're hearing about PDA for the first time or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode reminds us that sometimes the best therapy plan is building rapport and following the student's lead.Bullet Points to Discuss: How a rain-soaked TV appearance opened the door to specializing in PDAKey differences between PDA and autism with extreme demand avoidanceThe connection between pathological demand avoidance and selective mutismWhy environment and relationship-building matter more than direct goalsPractical strategies like the “projects on pause folder” and flexible choicesHow to support students without triggering demand avoidanceHere's what we learned: PDA and selective mutism? They're more connected than you think.Getting the environment right beats direct intervention every time.Flexibility and choice look different for every student.Try the “projects on pause folder” - it removes pressure and sparks curiosity.Build rapport without an agenda, and watch progress happen.The right diagnosis matters - wrong strategies can do more harm than good.Learn more about Libby Hill: Website: www.smalltalk-ltd.co.ukFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/smalltalkspeechandlanguagetherapy Let's Talk Small Talk Podcast: https://letstalksmalltalk.transistor.fm Learn more about Hallie Sherman and SLP Elevate:

This week, Mark is joined by Michelle Parton – a long-time Neuroshambles listener and parent of two neurodivergent children. They explore one of the more baffling challenges of raising our kids: why do so many of them flat-out refuse medical assistance? From hiding lava lamp injuries to meltdown-inducing blood tests, Mark and Michelle swap tales of their kids' iron-willed resistance to all forms of treatment – even when they're clearly in pain, bleeding, or itching uncontrollably. Together, they explore the many reasons this might be happening – from sensory issues and PDA to past trauma, masking, and a fundamental lack of trust in strangers in latex gloves. It's funny, cathartic, at times heartbreaking – definitely one for anyone who's ever tried (and failed) to administer Calpol to a deeply suspicious neurodifferent child. ⸻ CHAPTER TIMESTAMPS (Estimated): 00:00 – Intro & Meet the Guest: Michelle Parton 03:00 – Topic of the Week: Refusing Medical Help 08:00 – Kids hiding injuries 13:00 – Dysregulation about the prospect of going to the doctor 17:30 – Trust issues with medical professionals 23:00 – Lyme disease and the unholy nightmare of blood tests 29:00 – Trying to administer medication 35:00 – The impact of sensory overwhelm: Plasters, creams & the taste of medication 42:00 – The added complication with PDA kids 47:00 – The role that masking might play 54:00 – How alexithymia and interoception can influence things 59:00 – The impact of past traumatic experiences 1:04:00 – The positives 1:06:00 – Neurodiversity Champions 1:10:00 – Tiny Epic Wins 1:14:00 – “What the Flip?” moments 1:18:00 – Wrap-Up & Where to Find Us ⸻ LINKS TO STUFF WE MENTION IN THIS EPISODE: Lyme Disease - https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/lyme-disease/ Alexithymia - https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cg4ky5qgrlpo Interoception - https://www.autism.org.uk/advice-and-guidance/professional-practice/interoception-wellbeing Beyond Creative Education - https://www.beyondcreativeeducation.org.uk/ ⸻ CONTACT US
What if your child's resistance, meltdowns, or refusal to do “simple” things isn't defiance—but a nervous system response?In this conversation, Kristen talks with Casey Ehrlich, founder of At Peace Parents and one of the leading voices on Pathological Demand Avoidance (PDA). Casey is a researcher, parent coach, and mom of two PDA kids who helps families understand the intersection of ADHD, autism, and PDA through a lens of compassion and nervous system science.Together, they explore what PDA really is, why it shows up so often in ADHD families, and how traditional parenting strategies often backfire when a child's need for autonomy is being misunderstood as opposition.Follow Casey Ehrlich on Instagram and be sure to check out At Peace ParentsWatch this episode on YouTubeWant help with your ADHD?

In this powerful episode of the BIG Home Ed Conversations Podcast, Kelly and Ashley sit down with author, educator and neurodivergent advocate Helen Daniel to unpack ableism in the education system through the lens of SEND and neurodivergence. Drawing on Helen's experience as a teacher, academic and author of Neurosensory Divergence: Autistic Languages, they explore how a system built on standardisation often fails autistic and otherwise neurodivergent children – and what more equitable, sensory-aware education could look like, both in school and in home ed. Together they dive into: How curriculum changes and raised targets (times tables, Shakespeare, early formal writing) pushed more neurodivergent children “outside the norm.” Why standardisation is the enemy of equity – and why one-size-fits-all schooling doesn't work for diverse brains. EHCPs, SEND provision and why the system feels broken for so many families. Sensory profiles, overload and meltdowns: what's really going on beneath “behaviour.” Practical examples of small, powerful accommodations (movement, video learning, headphones, flexible seating.) How home ed groups can unintentionally replicate ableism – and how to design more inclusive spaces. Teaching all children (ND and NT) compassion, curiosity and respect for different needs. This is a validating, eye-opening listen for: Parents of autistic, ADHD, PDA or otherwise neurodivergent children. Home educating families navigating SEND needs. Teachers who feel the system is wrong but don't know how to change it. Any parent wanting to raise more compassionate, neuro-affirming kids. Guest Spotlight: Find Helen's book Neurosensory Divergence: Autistic Languages in all the usual places for a deeper dive into sensory processing, autistic communication and building truly equitable lives for autistic children.

Garrett shares his personal journey from real estate success to spiritual and family-centered realignment following the loss of his mother and grandmother. Through stories of faith, grief, and growth, he challenges the hustle culture that dominates real estate, urging agents to redefine success beyond sales numbers and instead focus on faith, family, and legacy.

No Room for In-Between: Literal Thinking and Communication Ruptures In this raw and honest episode, Patricia (she/her) shares her ongoing challenges with neurodivergent miscommunication, community rupture, and the emotional toll of being misunderstood. From neighborhood conflicts to horse training lessons, from cancel culture to navigating friendships and travel as an autistic person, Patricia opens up about the messy, contradictory realities of life, belonging, and growth. Listeners will walk away feeling less alone in their struggles with relationships, self-advocacy, and embracing both discomfort and joy. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · Why Patricia didn't want to record this episode—and why she did anyway · The ongoing story of neighborhood rupture and the painful dynamics of miscommunication · How neurodivergent communication differences play into misunderstanding and conflict · The discomfort of being misunderstood as an autistic person who values precision and exactness · The struggle of wanting repair but receiving ongoing hurtful communication instead · Recognizing when "these are not our people" and finding peace in letting go · Cancel culture: when it's useful, when it's harmful, and Patricia's lived perspective · How language change matters—and conversations with her husband about accountability in speech · The empowerment that comes from horse training and facing fear with big draft horses · Lessons from working with animals: calm presence, assertiveness, and learning new leadership skills · Navigating differences in friendships around money, dining, and travel · The autistic push-pull between craving sameness and being invited into novelty · Strategies for managing overwhelm when faced with too many choices or new experiences · How safe friendships allow for authenticity and unmasking · The sadness and privilege of having barriers to change, novelty, and travel—and finding supportive companions · Building resilience through small trial runs and intentional fun · The importance of bumping up against resistance to live a fuller, lighter life · Patricia's reflections on aging, matching tattoos with her kids, and wanting to add more joy SOUND BITES · There are times when we need to speak up, and there are times when we need to let people misunderstand us and sit with the discomfort." · "If you're autistic, precision and exactness are high values—being misunderstood can feel unbearable." · "This isn't personal. This is about neurodivergent miscommunication. And that gave me relief—at least for a little while." · "I'm more than two-thirds through my life, and I want to whip it up a little bit. If you're going to do some fun stuff, you better do it soon." · "Sensitivity is nothing to apologize for. You are perfect exactly as you are in a world not made for us."

She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges.

Justin Bieber BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Justin Bieber has been making plenty of headlines in the last few days thanks to a mix of career moves, family moments, and candid responses lighting up social media. The biggest music news is his release of the music video for Speed Demon, the lead track from his new album SWAG II. Shot in striking black and white and directed by longtime collaborator Rory Kramer, the video takes place at the Empire Polo Club—the iconic grounds of the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. This location choice is no coincidence, as Justin is set to headline Coachella in 2026, sharing the stage with fellow chart-toppers Sabrina Carpenter and Karol G. Clips from the video show him dancing across the Coachella grounds while his family, including wife Hailey, cheer him on, combining professional triumph with personal warmth as reported by BOB FM and Krush 92.5.Family life is also in the spotlight, with Justin and Hailey sharing affectionate photos and playful Halloween snapshots on Instagram. Hailey posted a series of pictures from their trip to celebrate Kendall Jenner's 30th birthday, including several candid bikini shots that prompted Justin's unfiltered four-word public reply: Oh my fuckin god, as spotted by Elle and UNILAD. The two also dressed up as The Incredibles for Halloween with their one-year-old son Jack, earning a shout-out from Disney and fueling even more love from fans and followers. On November 4, Justin posted his own PDA-filled photo with Hailey, drawing countless likes and comments, as covered by iHeartRadio.Meanwhile, Justin recently admitted in a Halloween livestream that touring still feels daunting and the idea of hitting the road is overwhelming, a sentiment that's resonated across interviews and fan forums as noted by Max FM. While these remarks hint that major touring is not imminent, they underscore his ongoing transition between superstar obligations and family priorities.In business news, while it's Hailey in the headlines due to the blockbuster launch of her Rhode beauty brand at Sephora and the ensuing Wall Street rollercoaster for parent company Elf Beauty—details from MarketWatch—the Bieber name continues to drive both media and financial buzz. Notably, Justin quietly exited his streetwear label Drew House some months ago, marking a significant change in his entrepreneurial footprint, according to Spreaker's Justin Bieber Audio Biography.On social media, his every move and comment—especially those about his wife—have attracted swift attention, creating a viral ripple effect. Despite past rough patches, outlets like People and Elle note the couple is tighter than ever, with parenthood deepening their connection and shaping this new, more grounded phase of Justin's life. His blend of public affection, career evolution, and candid admissions has cemented his standing as one of pop culture's most watched figures this November.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Parenting a child with ARFID (Avoidant/Restrictive Food Intake Disorder) can feel confusing and overwhelming. In this episode, Dr. Marianne Miller shares practical and compassionate strategies for parents who want to help their children eat with less fear and more confidence. You will learn why pressure and negotiation tend to backfire, how to create low-stress mealtimes that build safety, and how to attune to your child's sensory needs through a neurodivergent-affirming approach. Whether your child experiences food texture issues, fear of choking, or intense sensory overwhelm, this episode provides grounded, actionable steps for supporting eating with care and collaboration. Key Topics Covered Understanding ARFID beyond “picky eating” and recognizing it as a real eating disorder rooted in fear, sensory distress, or trauma Why pressure and negotiation can increase distress and decrease trust How sensory context affects eating and what small environmental changes can help Transitioning from authoritative to consent-based parenting that prioritizes autonomy and emotional safety Building trust through predictable, transparent, and compassionate mealtime practices Knowing when to seek professional ARFID-informed, trauma-aware, and neurodivergent-affirming support Who This Episode Is For This episode is for parents, caregivers, and family members who are trying to understand and support a child living with ARFID or selective eating. It is also helpful for therapists, dietitians, educators, and healthcare providers who want to better understand the family dynamics that shape mealtime stress and recovery. Why This Episode Matters Many families are told to use pressure or rewards to encourage eating. While this advice may seem helpful, it often increases distress for children with ARFID. In this episode, Dr. Marianne explains why traditional approaches like “one more bite” or “if you eat your veggies, you can have dessert” can erode trust and worsen fear. Instead, you will hear how shifting toward collaboration, sensory awareness, and emotional safety supports genuine progress. Learning to trust your child's signals and prioritize consent around food can transform your home and restore connection at the table. Content Caution This episode includes discussion of children's eating distress, food avoidance, and anxiety around eating.

The Push-Pull of ADHD and Autism: Stretching Without Breaking In this candid conversation, Patricia Young (she/her) and B Lourenco (she/her) dive deep into the realities of living with ADHD, autism, and other forms of neurodivergence. They explore the push-pull between self-accommodation and stretching ourselves, how shame and internalized ableism impact daily life, and what it means to create realistic support systems at home, in relationships, and in the workplace. Expect raw honesty, relatable stories, and practical insights for navigating neurodivergent life. WHAT YOU'LL HEAR IN THIS EPISODE · The ongoing "driver's seat battle" between ADHD and autism. · The push-pull between making accommodations and stretching ourselves beyond comfort. · Parenting a neurodivergent young adult while balancing when to push and when to allow rest. · Task initiation struggles — from making banana bread to cooking meals. · Body doubling as a powerful tool to reduce shame and spark motivation. · The "crisper/rotter" effect — guilt over wasted food and executive dysfunction. · Financial and practical impacts of task initiation challenges. · How privilege plays into having options like prepared or frozen meals when cooking feels impossible. · The cost of pushing through fatigue and flares with conditions like POTS and MCAS. · "Future me" thinking — and the difficulties neurodivergent folks have with impermanence. · Shame as the "ice cream scoop" on top of disability struggles. · Why diagnosis matters: language helps reduce shame and prevent repeating harmful patterns. · How powerlessness, and an attempt to gain autonomy can show up in small, reactive choices (like leaving a Facebook group). · Sensory sensitivities in family systems — how lack of accommodations can lead to dysfunction. · Practical accommodations for noise-sensitive parents and their kids. · Workplace challenges: 40-hour weeks, return-to-office pressures, and capitalism's rigidity. · Creative problem-solving in disabled and neurodivergent communities. · The deep fear of being uncared for and alone if we can't keep up. · Hyper-independence and isolation in the ADHD/autistic community. · Internalized ableism and the "shoulds" that drive shame and burnout. · Neurodivergence as a dynamic disability — what's possible one day isn't always possible the next. · Radical acceptance as a path toward reducing judgment and finding relief. SOUND BITES · "It begs the question of, okay, is that okay? Can we just say that's how it is?" – B Lourenco · "Instead of putting our energy into addressing the gap, folks will take the great divide and then put a scoop of shame on top of it." – B Lourenco · "All the terrible things that we tell ourselves… if I didn't have that awareness, I'd just keep repeating these patterns." – Patricia Young · "In order to truly accommodate ourselves, we have to acknowledge that it's as hard as it is and that we're as disabled as we are." – B Lourenco · "Sometimes I have to ask myself, what if what you're going through is exactly where you need to be?" – Patricia Young SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are.

She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you Patricia's website, podcast episodes and more: www.unapologeticallysensitive.com PODCAST GUEST B Lourenco, MA, LMHC (she/her) is a licensed mental health counselor, educator, advocate, and activist. B has been working in community support for nearly 20 years and is committed to social change on all system levels. Seeing mental health advocacy as a way to serve the community, she earned a Master of Arts degree in Clinical Psychology, with a Systems Emphasis, in 2015 and began her private practice, B Lourenco Therapy in 2017. B has also worked in the public school system, providing support to students with behavioral issues that made attending school challenging for them. Highly trained in Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), B became a district-wide expert in supporting neurodivergent students. It was during this work that she began to be critical of the medical models of support for neurodivergence, including ABA. Making the shift from the medical to the Neurodiversity-affirming model has allowed her to finally identify her own neurodivergence, including Autism and ADHD. Combining her lived experience of neurodivergence, along with years of anti-oppression work, B is passionate about helping others untangle themselves from harmful practices and align themselves with those that instead support marginalized communities. In addition to CE events for healthcare providers, she has also been a speaker on panels and podcasts, and also facilitates community based workshops. https://www.blourencotherapy.com LINKS Cascadia Training: https://cascadia-training.com Imani Barbarin—crutches_and_spice IG https://www.instagram.com/crutches_and_spice/ To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select "listen on Apple Podcasts" chose "open in itunes" choose "ratings and reviews" click to rate the number of starts click "write a review" Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok--https://www.tiktok.com/@unapologeticallysensitiv Unapologetically AuDHD Podcast-- https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/unapologeticallyaudhd/ e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com
