Send us a text

Filmmaker, life coach, and host of ADHD IS OVER Roman Wyden joins me to challenge the “disorder-first” mindset and offer a more human, nervous-system-aware path forward. We talk labels vs. lived reality, meds as band-aids vs. root-cause work, school fit, and how parents can lead with clarity, courage, and connection.
