Our Transformational ADHD Story
Hello! In this week's podcast, I bring you 11 years of parenting our incredible wild child - condensed into a 30-min podcast! This podcast is straight from the heart, brutally honest and shares how we went from a sinking ship to Seren thriving at home and at school. Yesterday as I read Seren's school report; I cried. I couldn't believe the difference from her reports over the last few years. Competent in every subject, some subjects excelling! The subjects that Seren excels in are Arts, Dance, Drama, Media Arts & Music. This doesn't surprise me at all; this girl hasn't stopped dancing since she was in the womb! Art is her happy place and her dramatic meltdowns could win this kid an Oscar! Seren's also an acrobat, a gymnast and a self-taught contortionist. My dad always said to me "Susy, not every kid is good at maths and English and that's ok". Some children are destined for greatness, and that doesn't always mean academics! The more we realise this as parents and teachers, the more pressure that we can stop imposing on these incredible children! Seren's dream is that she'll be a famous contortionist and travel the world. My dream for her is that she's happy and if that brings her happiness, then I am with her 100%. In this podcast, I share my heart, my advice and my passion for helping you to tap into your inert wisdom and intuition. The answers don't always come from the experts. Often, the answers you seek are in the hearts and souls of you and your child. The only way you will discover this wisdom is by surrendering. Understanding that there is a power far greater than us, and having a deep knowing that your child is here to teach you something. With love & light Susy xx www.susyparker.com

From The Class Clown To The ADHD millionaire!
In this weeks' episode, I interview Peter Shankman, who has been someone that I has inspired me on this journey as an ADHD mama! Peter is a spectacular example of what happens when you find the best traits of ADHD and work really hard to make them benefit you. Diagnosed at seven years old with "sit down, you're disrupting the class" disease, Peter wasn't formally diagnosed with ADHD until his mid-30s. By that time, however, he'd started and sold two companies, and realized that all the differences that formerly labeled him as a troublemaker were actually his greatest assets. After Peter sold his third company, (Help a Reporter Out,) he decided to focus on really understanding this "faster brain" of his, and learning exactly what it could do. From that, the Faster Than Normal podcast and bestselling book were born. Peter believes that everyone has gifts, potential, and abilities far beyond what society has deemed "normal," and strives to help bring those gifts to life in as many people as he can through his podcast, books, online videos, and countless worldwide speaking appearances. He is a true legend and is changing the conversation around ADHD. As Peter says in how own words; 'ADHD is a gift, not a curse'! www.petershankman.com www.fasterthannormal.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PeterShankman Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/petershankman
