このコンテンツについて

Welcome to The Unfinished Idea, a space for you to expand your understanding about the neurodiverse world that is all around us. What is it like raising a child with ADHD and autism? How does a neurodivergent person see and interact with the world? This podcast will share practical help, tips, and insights into the joys, struggles, and differences of everyday experiences of this special world. I'm Greer, mom to two boys & two dogs and, together with my husband, raising a child with Special Educational Needs. Our day-to-day experience isn't being talked about in everyday life and I see a gap in those leading people who are neurodiverse. Whether you are a parent, a friend, a teacher, or a neighbor, it needs to be a joint effort. I created this podcast to build a “over a cup of coffee” kind of conversation with you and me -- helping to bring awareness and better understanding about those who are neurodivergent and families who are raising children with additional needs. Each week, I will spend 30 minutes talking and interviewing others in the neurodiverse space and giving you the opportunity to learn, grow, feel seen and heard by how we interact with each other.That Sounds Fun Network 2024 人間関係 心理学 心理学・心の健康 社会科学 衛生・健康的な生活

  • Neurodivergence, Trauma & Healing: A Conversation with David & Sissy
    2025/05/15
    In this powerful episode, I’m joined by David Thomas and Sissy Goff from the Raising Boys & Girls podcast—two incredible voices in the world of childhood development, counseling, and emotional health. Together, we dive into a topic that’s especially important for neurodivergent families: the deep and often overlooked connection between neurodivergence and trauma. David and Sissy—both experienced, licensed counsellors—share how neurodivergent children often experience trauma more intensely or more frequently than their neurotypical peers. We explore what that looks like in real life, how it shows up in behavior, and most importantly, how parents, caregivers, and educators can respond with support, compassion, and healing strategies. We also talk about their brand-new children's books, Lucy and Owen, inspired by two real dogs from their counselling practice. These books walk children through hard experiences in gentle, relatable ways—offering practical tools for emotional regulation, resilience, and growth. Get the Lucy book here & the Owen book here Whether you're parenting a child with ADHD, autism, or another neurodivergent profile, or you're supporting a family member through their healing journey, this episode offers insight, validation, and actionable guidance to help you show up well for the kids you love.

  • Understanding Dyslexia: Signs, Support, and Breaking the Myths with Kelli Sandman-Hurley
    2025/05/08
    In this episode, I’m joined by Kellie from the Dyslexia Institute for Learning for a powerful conversation about what dyslexia really is—and what it isn’t. If you're a parent of a child with dyslexia, have a neurodivergent learner in your family, or you're navigating your own learning differences, this episode is packed with insight and encouragement. Kellie gently debunks common myths about dyslexia and explains how it affects more than just reading or spelling—it can impact emotions, confidence, routines, and relationships. We also dive into early signs of dyslexia in children, the importance of early intervention, and how to create supportive environments both at home and in school. Whether you're exploring special education support, considering a dyslexia assessment, or simply want to understand the learning needs of your child or loved one, this episode will give you clarity, compassion, and practical tools. Join us for a conversation full of education, empathy, and empowerment—and don’t forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with other families navigating the neurodivergent parenting journey.

  • Everyone is welcome
    2025/05/01
    In this episode, I sit down with good friend Judith to talk about what it looks like to turn compassion into action. Judith, along with her partner in crime, saw a need in their local community—families raising children with additional needs were craving connection, understanding, and a space that truly worked for everyone in the family. And so, Our Space was born. Our Space is a monthly meet-up designed specifically for families with additional needs. It’s sensory-friendly, welcoming, and built by people who get it. From the moment families walk through the door, there’s no pressure to mask, no need to explain—it’s just a space where you can show up as you are. In our conversation, Judith shares how the idea came to life, what it’s meant for the families who attend, and why creating inclusive spaces can have such a lasting ripple effect—not just for kids, but for parents, siblings, and the wider community.We talk about the importance of peer support, the power of showing up consistently, and what it takes to build something that meets people where they’re at. Whether you're a parent raising a child with additional needs, someone who’s been searching for community, or maybe even thinking about starting something similar in your area—this episode will leave you encouraged and inspired.There’s so much goodness in this conversation, and I hope it reminds you that even small, simple ideas can grow into something beautiful when they’re rooted in care. Tune in, take what resonates, and as always—come join the conversation. I’d love to hear what kind of community support you’ve found helpful in your journey, or what you’re still searching for.
