Episode 52
This week, we’re diving into neurodivergence. While a diagnosis can be life-changing for some girls, many behaviours we’re quick to label as “symptoms” are actually responses to stress, screens, and an overwhelming world.
I break down why physiology comes before psychology, exploring the nervous system, neuroplasticity, and how your daughter’s body and brain are doing exactly what they’re meant to do: survive.
I also share simple reframes and practical tools to help her (and you) feel calmer, more in control, and better able to navigate pressure without shame or burnout.
Because your daughter isn’t broken - she’s signalling for support (she just doesn't know it), and understanding why is the first step to helping her thrive.
Download my free 60 sec reset - for mums and girls - simple tools to use in the moment (yes that moment) - when everything is going to pot and you don't know what the hell to do. It's simple, easy and ready to use right now.
And... if you're local to me (that's in Cumbria, UK) come and join me (and my daughter) for a monthly mums + daughters meet-up that starts at the end of this month. Free, fun, connection, coffee and cake and a chance for both you and your girl to meet others who get it.
