Description

A podcast for parents of uniquely wired kids—kids with sensory needs, ADHD, big emotions, anxiety, or executive functioning challenges.
Hosted by pediatric occupational therapist and mom Alisha Grogan, this podcast goes beyond behavior and quick fixes to uncover what’s really pulling the strings beneath the surface. You’ll learn how sensory processing, emotional regulation, executive functioning, and retained primitive reflexes are deeply connected—and how understanding these connections changes the way you support your child.
Because your child is capable. And so are you.
