1089: “How to Reduce Yelling and Frequent Battles” {Interview with Penny Williams}

"Children with differences are not problems to be solved, but mysteries to be embraced." -Andrew Solomon

In this episode, Penny shares her perspective and highlights:

• The challenges of parenting neurodiverse children and underscores the need for parents to change their approach and mindset to better support their children

• The importance of understanding the nervous system as a trigger for challenging behavior and the need for parents to remain calm and non-reactive

• The impact of societal norms and the school system on neurodiverse children, and the need for acceptance and understanding in various environments

A parenting coach for neurodiverse families, Penny Williams is the award-winning author of four books on ADHD, including "Boy Without Instructions," producer and host of the Beautifully Complex Podcast, host of the annual Neurodiversity Summits, and co-creator of The Behavior Revolution Program, a parent training program designed to change the narrative on behavior and help parents celebrate and support their kids with ADHD or autism through neuroscience-backed insights, hard-won strategies, compassion, and guidance. Penny empowers parents to help their neurodivergent kids — and families — thrive.
