Do you ever feel like your brain has done a marathon after spending a day with your kid? The tiredness you feel is real, and there's an actual BRAIN reason for it! Listen in to find out what it is and what you can do about it!

P.S. The experiences I describe in this episode can be especially hard for those of us who are neurodiverse, because parenting adds a whole other level of tasks onto an already sensitive and sometimes overwhelmed brain!

We know that it feels yucky to compare our KIDS to someone else's kids. So why do we compare OURSELVES and our PARENTING to other people's lives and parenting? We do it because inside every comparison are some important values that are trying to get our attention, so today I am offering you a way to benefit from the best of comparison, while avoiding the worst.
