Does “helping” your child with ADHD stress you out🤔 And maybe you try to regulate your emotions…Or you soothe your emotions with a glass of wine, taking a walk, or curling up in a comfy chair. Or maybe simply avoid your emotions altogether🤔

Raising kids with ADHD can be STRESSFUL…but it’s even MORE STRESSFUL when you are laser focused on the wrong things.

And sometimes this laser focus on behavior problems and struggles with school work can begin to affect your relationship with your child…your family…or even your focus at work!

And I want to assure you that IT’S NOT YOUR FAULT that you think this way.

It’s our human superpower to notice the bad stuff. It’s our natural negativity bias. And this perspective also drives how we help our kids…by focusing on their problems.

And our modern medical model is no different. The focus is on finding the SYMPTOMS (behavior, poor school performance), assigning a DIAGNOSIS and prescribing a TREATMENT (medication, parenting class).

And our modern medical model is awesome for treating all kinds of problems and symptoms like obesity, cancer, diabetes, high blood pressure…to help people live healthier lives.

But our modern medical model for ADHD only provides a partial solution to our REAL GOAL…our goal of coaching our kids to become happy, independent, resilient ADULTS with grit and perseverance to overcome any challenge life throws their way.

THIS is what you really want…RIGHT😊 But how do you do THIS…

Well, it takes an entirely different model… with different tools…and different skills. And no…I’m not talking about executive functioning skills, or study skills, or organizational skills, (all good stuff) but they too are focused on fixing certain problems…and weaknesses…and are still only a partial solution to your REAL GOAL.

This is where the ADHD Success Method for Moms was born. With the goal of helping moms coach their own children to happiness and success…by leveraging the experts and research in the fields of positive psychology, well-being, happiness and others.

And I’m not gonna lie. It took me YEARS to get to where I am today…and a huge investment of my time… and my money…

And it IS possible for you too…but first you need a COMPLETE method to help your child learn ALL the skills they need for a life of happiness and success… and you’re gonna have to learn some new skills too (and probably unlearn some old habits.)

So if you’ve already experienced the modern medical model for TREATING ADHD…and you’re tired of trying the same thing and getting the same results (medications, treatments or therapy aren’t working, or you simply don’t want to put your kids on medications!)…maybe it’s time to try a new method!

And remember…you are NOT ALONE and you don’t have to figure this out alone!

So ask yourself…What is your next ACTION that will move you closer to YOUR goals🤔 Go do it now!

Stay Inspired!
