Tweens and teens with ADHD today are pioneers, maneuvering through the unexplored terrain and challenges of the digital age. It’s easy to see why our kids begin to believe their self-worth is measured in “Likes,” rather than a strong sense of inner self. And particularly heartbreaking to watch their self-esteem plummet at the same time that ADHD-exacerbated mood disorders, anxiety, and personal expectations spike to unhealthy levels.

The fact is, these amazing young adults need new tools to not only succeed on their exciting journey, while still maintaining an authentic sense of self. When personal growth requires the discomfort and challenge of facing unknowns, we can give the future generation the building blocks and confidence necessary to flip their superhero capes and soar.

In this webinar, you will learn about:

  1. ADHD superpowers and kryptonite — where tweens and teens with ADHD shine and struggle
  2. Why neurodiversity is a good thing
  3. How to encourage self-discovery, and help your teen feel comfortable about his or her ADHD traits
  4. How to help your teen create a healthy inner dialogue that promotes self-awareness, balance, self-correction and advocacy
  5. How to make healthy lifestyle tweaks, and discover simple techniques to create good habits for a mentally/physically strong brain and body
  6. Brain-boosting foods, calming techniques, stretching/breathing exercises, and brain organization methods to help your teen unleash his or her superpowers
