346. ADHD and Homeschooling Part 1

What if the neurodivergence in your homeschool is not only in your child, but in you?

In this honest and eye-opening conversation, we explore what happens when the home educator begins to recognize ADHD traits in themselves. From task initiation and time blindness to hyperfocus, novelty, shame, doom boxes, and the relief of a diagnosis, we talk about how our wiring shapes the homeschool experience.

We also name the gifts: enthusiasm, curiosity, side quests, deep dives, and the ability to turn education itself into a living adventure.

Tune in for Part One of a conversation many of us didn’t know we needed.
