On this enlightening episode of the Fresh Start Family show, Wendy welcomes educator, coach, and host of the Enlightening Motherhood podcast Emily Hamblin to talk about impulsivity in neurodivergent kids and what actually helps. Drawing from her work with families and her own parenting journey, Emily shares simple brain science, the ways wiring and conditioning interact, and playful practices that help kids build self-control without shame.

Together, Wendy and Emily explore practical strategies for setting firm-and-kind boundaries, reframing challenging behaviors, and recognizing the strengths hidden inside “impulsivity.” This conversation is hopeful, compassionate, and packed with “try it today” ideas to bring more calm and confidence into your home.
