In part one of a two-part story, Helen speaks with Catherine about growing up unseen in a family where silence, perfection and religion shaped her sense of worth. Together they explore how childhood invisibility can follow us into adulthood, in relationships, work and even the body, showing up as discomfort with being noticed, fear of conflict or the drive to perform for love.

The conversation looks at the lasting impact of emotional neglect, comparison and dismissal, and how learning to be visible again means rebuilding a sense of safety in being known. It is a tender, honest discussion about self-worth, visibility and the slow work of learning to take up space.

She explores why children are regulated at school and fall apart at home, how to reduce demands without losing boundaries, and what parents can do when teachers misread overwhelm as defiance. Helen offers clear guidance on scaffolding, co-regulation, and advocating for ADHD needs in environments that expect compliance over connection.

She also speaks to the emotional impact of discovering ADHD later in life, including grief for the child you once were, the pressure to mask, and the exhaustion of trying to meet neurotypical expectations. With compassion and practicality, Helen invites listeners to release self-blame, get curious about their nervous system, and build relationships rooted in safety, understanding and support.

Together they explore what happens when a parent refuses accountability, rewriting the past to protect their image and leaving their child burdened with guilt. Sarah opens up about the grief of realising she may never be chosen, the pressure to keep peace at her own expense, and the slow process of reclaiming her story.

The episode reflects on how survivors can begin to separate truth from narrative and find strength in naming what really happened.
