Do you feel tired? Fatigued? Sleepy all the time? Dealing with hair loss? Moody? Just not yourself? If you're in your 30s, 40s or 50s and thinking you might be in the peri-menopause stage or think you might have hormonal imbalances - this episode is for you!
Today you'll hear from Darci Hawkhurt, a founding member of certified MAF Method Health and Fitness Coaches and Practitioners, and my previous guest on Episode 23. In this conversation, we go deep into the root causes of many of the symptoms that women experience on an everyday basis especially as we go into the 'peri' menopause years. Darci shares her own experiences of being stressed out, dealing with hair loss, and overall burnout, thinking she might be in the peri stage, but only to find out she had adrenal fatigue and other hormonal imbalances. She talks to us about what were creating her issues and how she ultimately healed her body, stopped her symptoms, and is now thriving.
As women, and especially as moms, we can all relate to the overall feeling of tiredness, fatigue, and deep down knowing this just can't be right. Listen in on this episode where you can dissect and reflect on your own symptoms and get the help you may need to start feeling good again!

My guest on today's show will move you into action. If you're tired, stressed, hormone-imbalanced, fatigued, suffering from burn-out, having symptoms you can't explain but know you just feel off, or just have that all around 'blah' feeling - this episode is for you.
Today I speak with Darci Hawxhurst, M.S. Ed., a Child Brain Developmentalist and neurological evaluator, a writer, speaker, teacher, literacy expert, and most importantly, a mom. In this conversation she talks about her formerly brain injured child who she helped heal through a combination of nutrition and body movements. She talks about the impacts that food can have on the brain and therefore the body and how she harnessed what she learned to help herself go through a healing process as she found herself hitting rock bottom and dealt with burn out on the journey to healing her daughter.
Listen in on this really informational and powerful interview to hear what a change in habits can really mean and how to get started on that journey if you're ready.
And stay tuned ! We bring Darci back in a future episode to talk more about the hormonal imbalance that women often feel, whether it's related to perimenopause (or not) and what and how you can start to feel better.

In this episode we talk with Becky Tilley, a UK-based mom who is spreading the words of kindness and inspiration after being diagnosed with a rare genetic syndrome called Koolen-de Vries. Becky grew up feeling different, but had no idea until after the birth of her second child that she was not only a carrier of this syndrome but that two of her kids would go on to also be diagnosed. Getting the diagnosis when she was an adult gave her a unique perspective as she wasn't defined by this condition growing up. Instead of letting parent guilt and the negative spiral get in the way - she harnessed positivity and ended up writing and publishing a book called Thrive Rare: Embracing the Uniqueness Within. Listen in as Becky opens up and shares her story of her childhood that included being bullied and having difficulties with academics and work life to where she is today having authored a book and continuing to be an inspiration to others that have been diagnosed with rare genetic syndromes. About the Guest
Becky Tilley is a passionate advocate for embracing uniqueness and finding strength in adversity. Her personal journey with rare diagnoses, as well as her experiences as a parent, inspired her to share her story with others. Through her writing, she hopes to inspire individuals to embrace their own journeys and celebrate their unique paths.

Today we talk with Billy who comes to us from Bulgaria. We relate to one another as parents of multiple kids trying our best to raise resilient children. She talks about self-care, regulating yourself, and the importance of conflict. She even recommends a few good books as she's an avid reader, going through a book a week as a side gig!
Billy is a mom of three girls and the host of Unlock Your Childâs Full Potential Podcast. She believes parents have the unique role of nurturing the potential of the special human beings entrusted to their care. She doesn't expect school and the teachers to do everything and doesn't let the environment decide who her kids become. She believes its up to parents to coach their children on how to be successful and fulfilled. Thatâs her goal with her podcast - to talk to as many parents, educators, experts, you name it, and ask the questions, look for the universal principles, find as many tools as possible to be a better parent and give kids a head start in life.

In today's episode you hear from me as I talk about my own reflections of what challenges in life can really look and feel like and why we often feel so alone when so many people experience the same feelings.

Listen in on this episode as I walk through how journaling and writing down my thoughts or talking them out consistently though my life has enabled me to have such reflections on life and continue to do so today.

Do you have a child you might think have a learning difference? Are they learning at a difference pace than their peers? Do you have an inclination that you child might need some additional support but don't know what to do about it and it's really creating a lot of friction in your home? Or, has your child already been diagnosed with a learning difference and you have no idea how to manage the day to day?
On this episode, I speak with Shannon McNamara, a clinical social worker for 20 years, who specializes in kids with learning differences and helping parents navigate this journey. She has a unique view into the child-parent dynamic as she herself was diagnosed with a learning difference as a child. She focuses on the Connective Parenting philosophy, which is a more inclusive and holistic way of parenting. We get curious about our children's behaviors, and more importantly, how we react to those behaviors, and can identify our own 'buttons' or triggers that might be lending their hand to some of the challenges.
Listen in as we go in depth about what it means to have a learning difference, how the child experiences their world, and how, as parents we can help our kids through these challenges.

Are you up constantly in the middle of the night with a crying baby? Or in that phase of life where you're having to hold your baby until they fall asleep, putting them in the crib, and find yourself doing the same cycle again an hour later? Maybe you've got an older toddler who hasn't been taught the skills to sleep independently. Or maybe you just need a little support from an expert in the sleep field that can help you through your sleep deprived days and get you to be better place. Welcome to the world of Sleep Consultants.
In today's episode, I talk with Emily Simon, the founder of Simon Says Snooze. Emily is a mom herself and struggled with her children's sleep schedules which led her to hiring a sleep consultant. After great success, she was inspired to create her own sleep consulting business to help other struggling parents get through the other side of sleep deprivation to have a more calm environment.

Welcome to the third and final episode in our three-part mini-series on neurodiversity as it relates to couples in relationships. [Check out the first two in the series : Episode 4: Could Neurodiversity Explain the Challenges in Your Relationship? (Neurodiversity: Part 1), and Episode 6: When Expertise Matters - Finding the Right Therapist/Counselor (Neurodiversity: Part 2)]In this episode we bring back Grace Myhill, a couples coach, clinical consultant, group facilitator, and neurodiversity expert. We dive deeper into this topic and talk about the invisible expectations, that while inherent in any relationship, are more challenging in a neurodiverse one as they are not obvious nor even understood and able to be identified sometimes. If you've been struggling in your relationship and feel like you might be on two different planets and have two very completely perspectives on a situation, you might be in a neurodiverse relationship. Grace presents some typical challenges and walks through how to see these challenges; and moreover, what to do with them once you've identified the challenge.

Welcome to a Bonus Episode to celebrate our 10th publication!
Have you found yourself not really taking the time to celebrate you? What about on your actual birthday? This episode is a reminder that it’s OK to celebrate yourself and put yourself first sometimes. Last week, I marked another year around the sun, and made an intention to do something for myself - and the results were amazing. I'm paying it forward and will be sending out a pampering package to one lucky listener who comments in the Parents Connecting Facebook Group. A good excuse to go and find something that puts yourself first. The notion of 'putting yourself first' may seem so indulgent at first, but I'm becoming to understand that's it's a vital component to making sure your full person shows up to those around you. So here's to celebrating you! Listen in on this quick 18 minute episode as I talk about what worked for me and get an update of where we are in the podcast and what to expect in future episodes.

Have you ever asked why something bothers you? Is it really the other person or your work environment; or, could it be that you haven't identified what your value system is and so there's a natural friction due to being out of alignment?
In this short 30 min solo episode, you'll hear from me as I talk through some of my own reflections of my life and I'll give you a little insight into what happens when we ask ourselves what's causing the friction. So often, we see people transform themselves, but only see the before and after. This episode is one of many where I share with you my own questions and struggles so you see 'under the hood' and understand that any transformation takes work and sometimes just start with a simple, but deep question.. "What are my values?"

Did you know what you wanted to be when you grew up? I certainly didn't... and, well, still asking myself that question. So in addition to navigating parenthood, I've also navigated the professional working world. Listen in on this quick 25 minute episode where I share some lessons learned as a full time working finance professional. Yes, I actually have a day job.. for now.
Today you'll get to get a little insight into what I do, how I got to what I do, and some important lessons along the way. Speaking up and listening to your intuition is key. Something I didn't always do, and still have a struggle with, but as I learn more about who I am and what I want to do, the one thing that's been consistent is I am a life long learner. And in that capacity, I have some lessons that I've learned that I want to share. So listen in!

In Part Two in our mini-series on neurodiversity, I bring back Grace Myhill, a relationship coach and neurodiversity expert, as we continue the dialogue on couples and challenges in relationships.
Being in any relationship is hard at times, but it can be even more challenging when there are invisible factors at work... something that may take years to discover if your therapist or couples coach is unaware of what neurodiversity in a relationship looks like. If you've sought individual or couples therapy and are still struggling with finding connections and real change in your relationship, this episode is for you.
Listen in as we focus in on the really nuanced dynamics that neurodiverse relationships exhibit, some of the things to look out for, and how to find a therapist that works for you and why subject matter expertise is especially important. With the right new lens to look through - there is hope for positive change in your relationships.
