SHINING WITH ADHD
EPISODE #116: Confused to Confident: School Advocacy with ADHD Parent (and real-life superhero!), Devon Pickens

SUMMARY
It starts with first sneaking suspicion about your child's big emotions and impulsivity. They grow through those wild (but sweet!) preschool years, and then in Pre-K or Kindergarten, you start getting letters from the school or emails from the teacher. Confusion and embarrassment creep in, and everything starts to feel heavy. Thankfully, you are not alone. There is hope! It is possible to find joy as you advocate for your child to get evaluated and set up the best support for them at school. In this episode, we hear from ADHD parent Devon Pickens as she shares her journey from confusion to confidence as she navigates school for her child with ADHD.
