What does it mean to break down information in order to build up social competencies? And how does that relate to people with compelling social anxiety? In this discussion with the founder of Social Thinking, Michelle Garcia Winner, we explore the relationship between "being social" and social cognition (ie. social thinking). We touch on four areas of executive function that can foster our ability to learn how to take action on social dynamics that we want to do and are important to us. Get a better understanding of social dynamics and how to help your kids navigate them. Michelle Garcia Winner, MA, CCC-SLP, is the founder and CEO of Think Social Publishing, Inc, (a.k.a. Social Thinking). She is a globally recognized thought leader, author, speaker, and social-cognitive therapist who is dedicated to fostering awareness and development of our social-emotional and organizational selves, both neurodivergent and neurotypical. Across her 30+ year career she has created numerous evidence-based strategies, treatment frameworks, and curricula to help family members as well the professionals who support them foster the development of social and organizational competencies and problem solving. Her methodology is most effective with children and adults who have a solid command of expressive and receptive language.

Tailoring social strategies based on the person's specific challenges and strengths can significantly enhance their social learning experience.Michelle explains managing social anxiety requires self-regulation, flexibility, and self-compassion.

36:57

Have you ever thought about that word: Parenting?Parenting is actually about us, not about our kids. Sure, part of the job of parenting is 'child-rearing,' or 'raising kids,' or whatever you want to call it. With one of my kids, I used to say that it is "my privilege to supervise her while she raises herself." But really -- parenting is not about them. It's about WHO we're BEING while we are doing the work of loving them and guiding them. Our journey is to be with them on their journey -- and that can get complicated sometimes. Messy. Confusing! If you are a parent who knows that this journey of parenting is definitely calling on you to learn some stuff -- if you know that your spiritual or emotional journey in life is being challenged -- then tune in to some highlights from this year's podcasts about the Inside Adventure of Parenting And remember -- however or wherever you are on this fascinating journey of yours -- we're glad that you're on it with us!

Episode 192: Navigating Big Emotions with ADHD (Ours & Theirs!) 34:19

há 12 weeks34:19

34:19

One of the trickiest aspects of parenting with ADHD is that, very often, the best parenting strategies -- the ones that help our kids the most -- require calm, well-regulated parents. And that’s not always easy to accomplish when parents have their own big emotions. In this conversation, we’ll identify at least 2 of the 10 main differences in an ADHD brain that create more intense negative emotions (in kids and adults), and get guidance on 2 essential components to manage those challenges. We’ll talk about why ADHD brains feel their feelings so intensely, and how we can manage our own emotions even when our kids are pushing every last button. Marcy Caldwell, Psy.D. is a clinical psychologist, writer, and proud mom of 2 in a family full of ADHD who has been helping adults with ADHD thrive for over twenty years. She is a passionate advocate for adults with neurodiverse brains and is dedicated to helping them create environments that unlock their unique genius. Marcy is the founder of ADDept.org, a blog and digital resource for adults with ADHD, the owner and director of The Center for ADHD, and the creator of Meltdown to Mastery, an innovative digital program that helps adults with ADHD learn to better regulate their emotions. Listen to this Parenting With Impact episode with Marcy Caldwell, Psy.D. about navigating emotions.Here is what to expect on this week’s show:Marcy highlights that individuals with ADHD tend to amplify negative stimuli while minimizing positive ones, leading to a cycle of negative emotional feedback and self-perception.Marcy emphasizes the importance of allowing oneself to experience a range of emotions, including big joy, anger, and sadness.Marcy shares the concept of decreased early sensory encoding in ADHD brains; this phenomenon causes individuals to process negative information more intensely than positive information, leading to heightened negative emotions.
