Neurodivergent Nightmares but make it about the ~Holidays~

Maybe the holiday experiences and expectations come from your inner voice.
Maybe they come from family members.
Maybe they come from work. It’s important that you identify your own personal goals for the holiday, focus on those goals, and let everything else go.
Let everything else be okay.

Let’s explore some of the challenges below, and let me know if you have any additions!

Clinicians, tell me you get it too…when a family you’re working with sends you a milestone, it’s the best feeling in the world.

And parents, when you choose to invite me into your world by sharing these small clips, I’m humbled and grateful.

Those tiny wins that the world doesn’t always notice, but we know exactly how big they are. If you love seeing those moments as much as I do, let me know!

During the holidays, some kids crave extra movement and excitement. Others need more quiet, predictability, and space. Neither is “too much” or “not enough,” they’re just regulating their nervous system in a season full of sensory overload.

It’s December 5th. Where are you at on your battery meter, and what are you doing to recharge?

Not sure who needs to hear this, but a holiday routine that stresses everyone out just to look “normal” is not worth it. It’s not worth your peace, your kid’s peace, or your family’s peace.

Got to get creative with those sensory-seekers.

Pick any three gifts - and send to your loved ones to give them some ideas 😉

Did you know -

Many neurodivergent individuals don’t process hierarchies in the same way others might. This is something many people don’t realize, so I thought it would be beneficial to share during this holiday season of gift-giving.

The neurodivergent person’s perspective on hierarchies can extend to their perception of value, where they may not see a significant difference between a $1 gift and a $100 gift. Instead, they may focus more on the thoughtfulness and meaning behind the gift rather than its monetary value.

Have you seen this in your own life?

The holidays can be the happiest time of year...and the most stressful. Neurodivergent families deserve to celebrate in ways that feel safe, comfortable, and true to them.

Save these hacks for when December feels a little too loud and overwhelming.

During the busiest season of the year, you can catch me attempting to do all the things - work, holidays, family, and trying not to forget to eat lunch. But rest and recovery aren’t things we squeeze in after everything else… they deserve their own spot on the calendar. What do you do to rest and/or recharge?
