 Shedding the "shoulds" is easier said than done. Especially when you're ADHD and live in a world that loves to measure you by impossible standards. In this episode of The Spicy Brain Podcast, sisters Michelle and Megan dive deep into the expectations we place on ourselves and others, especially as neurodivergent folks and parents of complex kids.They explore what it means to parent your inner child with compassion, and how even well-meaning thoughts like “he should be able to take care of himself by now” can become emotional quicksand.

You’ll hear Megan talk about her own masking moments, her husband's recent ADHD diagnosis, and how saying “you’re a real girl, Michelle” turned into a hilarious, and touching, highlight of the episode.
Whether you're parenting a complex kid, reparenting yourself, or just trying to stop "shoulding" on yourself, this episode offers real talk, gentle reframes, and a big reminder that you’re not broken...you’re just spicy.
