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.
