NAVIGATING ADHD WITHOUT GUILT
When parenting a child with ADHD or anxiety, the emotional rollercoaster can feel unrelenting and the mom guilt? Overwhelming!
In this episode, I'm joined by Dana Baker, ADHD and anxiety parenting coach, speaker, and mom who's lived this journey firsthand. Dana opens up about her own parenting story, how she learned to trust her instincts, and what finally helped her advocate for her daughter in a world that said, “She’s fine.”
We talk about how to recognize your child’s triggers, why adjusting expectations is essential, and how validation, not perfection, is key to connection. Dana shares actionable tools for handling emotional outbursts, increasing resilience, and building emotional awareness without losing yourself in the process.
Whether your child has a diagnosis or you just feel like you’re constantly walking on eggshells, this episode will help you feel seen, supported, and better equipped to parent with clarity and compassion.

ESSENTIAL MINUTE | THINKER©
When you're parenting a child with ADHD or anxiety, focus can feel fleeting and emotional regulation even harder. That’s why I love doTERRA Thinker®.
This gentle, kid-safe blend is designed to promote clarity, focus, and emotional balance without overstimulation… making it the perfect tool for supporting kids who are easily distracted or overwhelmed.
How to use it:
Apply to the back of the neck before school, therapy, or transitions
Keep it in a backpack or homework station for moments when focus starts to fade
Swipe it on during meltdowns or moments of frustration to help reset and regroup
Because calm doesn’t mean quiet and focus doesn’t have to feel forced. Thinker is one more way to help your child thrive in the moment they’re in.
