  • Résumé

  • Welcome to The Unfinished Idea, a space for you to expand your understanding about the neurodiverse world that is all around us. What is it like raising a child with ADHD and autism? How does a neurodivergent person see and interact with the world? This podcast will share practical help, tips, and insights into the joys, struggles, and differences of everyday experiences of this special world. I'm Greer, mom to two boys & two dogs and, together with my husband, raising a child with Special Educational Needs. Our day-to-day experience isn't being talked about in everyday life and I see a gap in those leading people who are neurodiverse. Whether you are a parent, a friend, a teacher, or a neighbor, it needs to be a joint effort. I created this podcast to build a “over a cup of coffee” kind of conversation with you and me -- helping to bring awareness and better understanding about those who are neurodivergent and families who are raising children with additional needs. Each week, I will spend 30 minutes talking and interviewing others in the neurodiverse space and giving you the opportunity to learn, grow, feel seen and heard by how we interact with each other.

    Reset: Spicy-Mama Relaxation

    In this episode, I have the absolute pleasure of speaking with Catie, @catie,mchardy, a mother of four neurodivergent children, each with their own distinct needs and personalities. Catie’s household is a whirlwind of energy, love, and unique challenges that come with raising a family where every member is on their own neurodivergent journey. Catie shares the story of how, during the process of her daughter’s autism and ADHD diagnosis, she had an epiphany: she, too, was Autistic and ADHD. We discuss the complexity of navigating life with multiple neurodivergent individuals in one household, and how even though they share similar diagnoses, each person’s experience is deeply personal and different. We dive into the realities of transitions in a neurodivergent home—what works, what doesn’t, and how family dynamics shift when everyone is navigating their own sensory processing, routines, and emotional needs. We also talk about the joys, the struggles, and the magic that comes with embracing neurodivergence as a family unit. This conversation is both insightful and incredibly relatable for anyone living in a neurodivergent household, and it’s filled with humor, heart, and hope. If you’re a parent of neurodivergent children, or you’re simply curious about what life is like in a family where everyone’s brain works a little differently, this episode is for you.
