Love the examples and “lived experiences” offered!

Finally found my place! A podcast that informs and educates on PDA. Even my kids therapist couldn’t support me identifying with this nervous system disability because she had no knowledge of it. Happy to have found support and validating experiences for what is/could be going on with my tween. Thank you! Highly recommend this podcast!

Talks about many shared experiences of all aspects of autism. I am the mom of an autistic teen and this podcast really helps.

Neurodiversity has resonated with us so much that I want to learn more about my Child and what she needs from us. Thank you so much for creating a podcast that really help us fine resourcesand as well answers!

As a divorce attorney who has many clients with neurodiverse children, I can say that this is a must listen podcast. It is chock full of information. Thank you Holly.

I absolutely love this podcast! I am currently going to school to become a Sp. Ed. Teacher. This is great material and insight on my daily walks to listen to. I love the book recommendations and information shared. Thank you so much for doing this podcast!

Great show with top experts that help parents navigate ADHD and autism. I really enjoy Holly's interviews with such deep information!

She has helped me as a autistic woman

All of this is just what we needed to learn about to help our son. So good to know we are not alone and there is help out there!

I feel like she is speaking directly to me. She is very relatable and clear and full of good ideas about hot to navigate this parenting journey. I have a 10 year old girl and with ADHD and recently diagnosed Autism as well as a 14 year old girl with anxiety. I love Holly’s way of rethinking about things. I relisten to her episodes often, take notes and share often with friends and my husband.

Best podcast so far that I’ve heard on these subjects. Realistic and a good resource.

Hugely helpful.

I hope everyone with a child who is different like ours listens to Holly and her podcast. She gets our kids and approaches real issues with appropriate humor, positivity, and practical solutions. I was fortunate to be a guest on her show. It was the most delightful experience I’ve ever had. Holly asks great questions, provides helpful insight, and just makes it like an enjoyable conversation with a friend.

It feels like a friend that understands your journey as a parent with neurodivergent kiddos. I have been looking for this level of honesty and information as I navigate this for myself and my family. Thank you for bringing these topics to the world. We need you.

This pod is digestible and easy to follow for complex topics. Love it!

Wow. Granted, I had a huge need in my life that this podcast perfectly fit… but this podcast changed my life. For some reason adding a second child to my family really threw me off. Everything was an incredible struggle. I needed a change so I decided to finally get that neuropsych assessment done so I can start the adhd medicine that I knew I needed. Come to find out I not only have adhd, but I am also autistic. As a 42 year old cis-white male attorney father of two, I had never considered this. I wa not educated about it and no one throughout my life ever suggested it. Sure, I had sensitivity to sounds, but I was just weak right? Parenting for me is a constant moment to moment risk assessment and I am constantly on edge, but I’m just weak and selfish because I’d rather be alone right? When I was diagnosed I was so upset. It sent my already ongoing burnout into a full meltdown (I think). I have spent my whole adolescent life trying not to be a “r-slur” (I grew up in the 90s) i have such an internalized disgust for anything atypical because I was bullied about being that very thing and my entire motivation in my social development was to not be what everyone ridiculed me for because that’s what would make it stop. In my attempts to find some source of information that resonated with me, I happened upon the episode about 4 signs of internalized ableness or something like that. It truly changed my whole perspective of myself and how I’ve gone through life. That episode was that one thing I needed to feel a positive connection to this diagnosis. It explained everything I knew about myself but I was previously only able to evaluate under the neurotypical expectations I was taught. Hearing that episode made me realize this diagnosis isn’t a curse as I had taken it, but the key I’ve always needed to finally understanding myself and why I have struggled the way I have. The host is so affirming and welcoming. The tone is more from a parenting angle, but honestly the way my brain works I can apply the knowledge to myself easier that way. Everything I have heard is presented very well and with care.

I just listened to the episode about internalized ableism and it was so insightful. I’m looking forward to learning more. Thank you.

All of society needs to listen & learn from this show. I’ve shared many episodes with family to help them understand my child. Parenting, a child with special needs can be exhausting and overwhelming. I am so thankful for this podcast, and all the advice, tips and tricks that it offers!

Worth listening to!

So much good information to digest. Thank you!

Great show today on tips and strategies to work with my severely autistic child.

This podcast is very helpful and informative in dealing with my autistic son. Great guest speakers and solid, practical advice.

I always enjoy Holly’s info, her podcasts, webinars and guests. I put them on while cleaning and doing things around the house. Sometimes the info is stuff I know, sometimes it’s all new, but I usually always learn one thing I didn’t know or come away with something I can try that I haven’t with my daughter (11) with ASD and ADHD or my husband with the same who didn’t know he had it until diagnosed at 51 while during our daughters diagnosis journey. Keep up the great work.

Thank you for this incredibly helpful podcast. Learn more every episode!

I love the variety of topics Holly covers! I love her focus on accommodations and neurodiverse affirming strategies for wired differently kids and their families. Her podcasts on PDA are fantastic.

This episode definitely convicted my heart. Listening helped me to see how discounting my 8-year old son’s grocery store experience last week was/is detrimental to his progress in speaking up for himself. He has struggled with aggression since the age of 3, that’s when we started behavioral therapy. We’re finally making progress in that area and he’s been more vocal about his needs! I had to change so much! I needed this time to self reflect on areas of needed improvement for myself. I’ve asked the Lord to search my heart and He always answers (Psalms 138:23-24). I’m truly thankful for this podcast.

Holly’s the best! I learn so much from this podcast. So grateful to learn from all of the knowledge she shares!

Thank you for helping with this information. The more educated the less scary it seems to understand. This community thrives in a village setting versus the do it alone island. Thank you Holly.

As the mother of an autistic young adult, I’ve found Holly’s podcasts informative, helpful, and reassuring. Parenting an autistic person is challenging and sometimes isolating journey. Her insights help me navigate the journey with more knowledge, compassion, and sensitivity.

Appreciate the Information. We were given a level 2 ASD dx combined with ADHD for our 5 year old, and I’m trying to soak up all the information I can 💚

This podcast provides a wealth of information that is valuable for anyone interested in learning about neurodiversity. Great for both families and practitioners.

This podcast is an excellent resource with practical, easy to digest information. I live the variety of topics and guest speakers. Even when I think an episode may not apply to my son’s particular situation I listen anyway and find a takeaway that’s useful and apply. The host is not only knowledgeable but also neurodiverse affirming. I highly recommend and believe it will be a keeper in your library.

This podcast is SO helpful! I’m an occupational therapist working with kids who have autism and a parent of two kids with ADHD, as well as having ADHD myself. This podcast addresses issues that are often overlooked or glossed over in other sources. You will get information here that you can’t get anywhere else. Look through the list of topics and I guarantee you will find one that interests you! Holly also gives a lot of helpful advice along with giving you an understanding of the underlying issues. This not only helps you know how to approach a particular issue, but how to approach it with empathy and understanding. It’s invaluable for both parents and professionals.

This is a phenomenal resource for those new to the neurodivergent community. It really helped me when our son was first diagnosed. Practical advice and helps you know you are not alone! Great job!

I absolutely love this podcast and have learned so much. I so appreciate the knowledge, sharing of stories and for featuring these fantastic professionals. I am a Professional Care Assistant for an fantastic adult for almost 3 years now. She is more than a client, I consider her to be my sister. I started with very little knowledge and struggled with so much on “getting” through and understanding her responses and reasons with everything from completing tasks and reaching personal goals. Even with the hiring agency’s on-line employee training program I felt completely lost…until I found this life changing podcast. Thank you SO MUCH for providing this wonderful resource.

I was looking for more resources to help me understand my neurodivergent child, and this podcast has helped tremendously

We at Wolf Educational Consulting in Cary, NC love share this podcast to our families. We support students with executive functioning skilsl in school and love that you confirm to parents and students that being a unique learner may require support but never shame.

I’ve been listening to you for a while because a friend of mine has a boyfriend I’m trying to understand. Some of your ideas are good. Over all you have a great podcast.

Holly is a great resource for kids, parents, caregivers and extended family members.

I am so impressed with this podcast. Great information, delivered in a personable approachable way. Thank you for this resource, it’s already helped considerably and I’ve only had time to listen to 3 episodes. Looking forward to diving into the rest!

Holly’s podcast is engaging, informative, and educational. As a licensed child psychologist, I find this podcast valuable and love listening to other professionals in the field.

This was my first time to hear this broadcast and it was very eyeopening. Her guest was so enlightening and also shared example of all the things neurotypicals do wrong because of ignorance. I have a teen grandson with autism and ADHD who struggles daily. Thank you for your program.

I am a 57 year old ASD & ADHD woman who wasn’t diagnosed until age 40. There are so few resources for adults, most information is directed towards parents of neurodivergent children which makes sense. Holly has the unique ability to address her content in a way that addresses everyone. A true hidden gem!

I have been listening to many autism podcasts. Dr Holly is a professional in this area having a child on the ADS spectrum herself. It’s always resonates with me when someone has walked in your shoes offering what she finds works. The information and guests are interesting and again offer insights, reminders, and Helpful information!

The best podcast I’ve found where each segment is a spitting image of my daughter. I haven’t found other collections of information like this anywhere else. There are good days and bad days but each day we come a little bit closer to a better understanding of the how and why things are the way they are and how we as parents can better cope and get help.

A great resource for parents. Super well done, easy to follow.

Holly not only creates great and informative content about Autism/ADHD people, but also resonates as a safe person for them. Every episode is an infusion of encouragement.

Such a wonderful podcast! My son has been diagnosed with ASD, I myself have ADHD and ASD. This podcast has been so helpful !

This podcast is insightful, thorough, and concise. I listen weekly and always take away helpful information or tips. Many neurodivergent children (autism and ADHD) have siblings who have a specific journey. I’ve noticed there aren’t many resources available for siblings. Perhaps a podcast with resources or tips for the sibling would be helpful as well! Thank you for all you do!

Thanks for the helpful podcasts!
