Description

Join Kate Brownfield, ACC, ADHD & Executive Function Parent Coach, author, and host of The ADHD Kids Can Thrive Podcast, as she speaks with leading ADHD experts, clinicians, educators, researchers, authors, and advocates in the ADHD and neurodiversity community.

Created for parents and caregivers raising children and teens with ADHD and related neurodivergent needs, the podcast explores the many layers of ADHD parenting, including executive function, emotional regulation, school and homework challenges, family dynamics, nervous system regulation, treatment options, anxiety, sleep, screen time, learning differences, self-esteem, and the everyday work of helping a child thrive.

Kate brings a compassionate, practical, and whole-child perspective to each conversation, combining professional training with lived parenting experience. Her goal is to help parents better understand what may be happening beneath their child’s behavior, feel less alone, and become more confident in supporting their child, themselves, and their family.
