Episode 71: A grown up perspective on ADHD with Jeremiah Hartmann (Part-2)
How can parents take the lead in creating meaningful change for their children, especially those who don’t fit the typical mold? What have I learned from my 20 years as a psychologist and my experience raising three kids about simplifying parenting and supporting children with ADHD?
What’s happening in the minds of children with ADHD, from intense emotions to impulse control struggles? How do I approach these challenges with understanding and patience, and what strategies can help parents navigate these situations confidently?
Why is assertiveness so important, and how can techniques like fogging or “duct-tape phrases” help us handle criticism effectively? How has embracing my quirks and being transparent about my flaws shaped my self-image and allowed me to thrive in social and professional environments? What does parenting teach us about structure, empathy, and the emotional needs of children? How has my own journey as a parent reinforced the importance of being emotionally available and creating stability for my kids, while also helping me heal parts of my own childhood?
How do I use my skills as a coach, public speaker, and storyteller to inspire and support others? From guiding couples through weddings to delivering impactful messages for organisations, what lessons can I share about connecting with people and bringing value to their lives? Lastly, how can parents embrace modern emotional intelligence while letting go of past generational expectations? How can we use this knowledge to build stronger, more empathetic connections with our children?
