Saturday Morning Live, tomorrow, 4th July, 8am AEST.

A lot of conversations I’m having recently involve the downward spiral of ADHD dysregulation. What contributes to it, and how can we turn it around? Find out tomorrow.

For many educators, supporting neurodivergent children can feel challenging, especially when a child struggles to sit still, follow routines, or regulate their emotions.

But what if we looked beyond the behaviours?

What if, alongside understanding the challenges, we also helped children recognise their strengths, build self-understanding, and develop confidence in who they are?

This shift in perspective can make a significant difference, not only for the child, but for the educators and families supporting them.

That's the work I'm passionate about:

Helping bridge the gap between seeing neurodivergence as a limitation and recognising the unique gifts and potential that can exist within different neurotypes.

These are some of the conversations I'll be sharing at the ECTA Early Childhood Conference this Saturday.

If you're attending, I'd love to connect with you there. 🩷

Have you ever felt like you’re trying so hard, but still can’t seem to get on top of things?

Maybe your mind feels busy all the time.
Maybe simple tasks feel heavier than they should.
Maybe you keep telling yourself you should be more organised, more motivated, more consistent, more calm.

And deep down, you know THERE IS MORE IN YOU.

This is something many people with ADHD experience. It can also be familiar for people walking a similar path of overwhelm, emotional exhaustion, sensitivity, self-doubt, or feeling stuck without really knowing why.

Sometimes the missing piece is REGULATION.

When your brain and nervous system are dysregulated, it can be hard to access the clarity, confidence, motivation, and strengths that are already there. It does not mean you are broken. It means your system may need a different kind of support.

Suzy Burgess' ADHD mentoring work is about helping you understand what may be keeping you stuck, support your brain and body at a deeper level, and move toward feeling more regulated, empowered, and connected to who you really are.

📩 If you're tired of trying harder and still feeling stuck, don't wait until burnout forces you to make a change. Book a call now with Suzy and explore whether this support is the missing piece you've been looking for.

Many ADHD nervous systems are not struggling with effort, they are struggling with regulation.

This is the foundation behind Thrive Vitality, founded by Suzy Burgess

Thrive Vitality exists to support a more grounded and empowering understanding of ADHD. One that moves away from the idea of being “broken” and instead focuses on emotional regulation, nervous system awareness, and practical support in everyday life.

Suzy helps people build self-understanding, confidence, and steadiness so their strengths can come through more clearly.

The work is delivered through three main pathways.

ADHD Shine Naturally is a community space focused on ADHD awareness, education, and connection.

𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗠𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 is a guided support space for women and mums who want practical tools, structure, and ongoing support to help them apply what they’re learning in real life.

𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗠𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗼𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗔𝗗𝗛𝗗 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗧𝗿𝗮𝗻𝘀𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 — a 3-month one-to-one program for those who feel overwhelmed, anxious, stuck, or disconnected from their confidence and capacity.

Suzy brings together her lived experience with ADHD, her experience as a mum of neurodivergent children, and her professional background as a Certified Naturopath.

Her approach looks at the whole picture — nervous system regulation, emotional wellbeing, beliefs, lifestyle, nutrition, sleep, stress, and brain health.

The goal is not to “fix” ADHD.

The goal is to support regulation, self-trust, and a stronger sense of stability so people can function in a way that feels more like themselves.

Parenting a teenager can be challenging at the best of times. When both you and your child have ADHD, it can sometimes feel like you're trying to navigate the same storm from different boats.

You may find yourself managing your own overwhelm, forgetfulness, emotional reactions, and energy levels while also supporting your teen through similar challenges.

It's not uncommon for parents to feel frustrated, exhausted, or even guilty when they struggle to stay regulated during difficult moments.

One thing I often remind parents is that your child doesn't need a perfect parent. They need a parent who is learning, growing, and willing to repair when things don't go as planned.

Having ADHD yourself can actually give you something incredibly valuable: 𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴.

You know firsthand that ADHD isn't about laziness, lack of effort, or not caring enough. That understanding can help you approach your teen with greater compassion, even on the hard days.

It's also important to remember that supporting your own wellbeing isn't selfish. The more supported and regulated you are, the more capacity you'll have to support your child.

One of the hardest parts can be remembering that your child isn't experiencing the world the same way you are.

Sometimes as parents, we look at a situation and think:
"I've explained this already."
"Why is this still happening?"
"Why can't they just remember?"

And it can be really confusing when the same challenges keep showing up.

But often, it's not about not listening.
It's not about not caring.
And it's not usually about trying to make life difficult.

Sometimes it's a child doing the best they can with a brain that processes things differently.

I think one of the biggest shifts is moving from:
"Why are they doing this?" to "What might be making this hard for them?"

That doesn't mean there shouldn't be expectations or boundaries.
But it can change the way we respond.

Because when we understand what's underneath the behaviour, it's often easier to support the child in front of us rather than the child we expected them to be.

And honestly, most parents are learning as they go.

Sometimes the reaction looks way bigger than the situation.
And from the outside, people might think:
“Why are they so upset over something so small?”

But for some kids, even small rejection can feel really personal.

A tone change, being corrected, feeling left out, someone saying no, even something unintended - and then suddenly it turns into anger, shutting down, yelling, tears… sometimes all of it at once.

Honestly, I think one of the hardest parts is not taking those reactions personally as a parent because when you’re getting snapped at or yelled at, your nervous system reacts too.

But a lot of the time, underneath the anger is embarrassment, shame, hurt, or feeling like they’ve failed again. That doesn’t mean the behaviour is okay. Boundaries still matter.

But usually the conversation goes better once things are calmer, not in the middle of the explosion.

And sometimes what helps most is helping them put words to what they’re actually feeling before it turns into rage.

It’s really hard watching people react negatively to your child over and over again.

Especially when you know they’re not trying to be annoying.

Sometimes it's “interrupting, talking too much, being too loud, not picking up social cues, big reactions”, and after a while, you start thinking ahead like… “How is this going to affect her later on?”

I think a lot of parents carry that fear quietly.

But I also think kids can tell when everyone around them is frustrated with them all the time.

And that’s the part that can really affect them long term.

Not just the behaviour itself, but how they start seeing themselves because of the reactions they keep getting.

That doesn’t mean you ignore the behaviour or stop helping them socially.

But I think there’s a difference between:
“Let’s help you navigate this” and “Everything about you is too much.”

And a lot of these kids already feel like they’re getting it wrong most of the time.
Sometimes they just need someone who still understands them after the hard moments too.

This question comes up a lot and I think it usually comes from a really honest place wanting to feel more steady, more focused, less overwhelmed in your day-to-day life.

There are supplements people commonly explore for general brain support and overall wellbeing.

Things like nutrients that support:
– energy production
– nervous system regulation
– stress response
– sleep quality

But I always like to slow this down a bit.

Because supplements aren’t a “one-size-fits-all” thing. What someone needs can depend on so many factors - diet, stress levels, sleep, health history, and what’s actually going on in the body.

So instead of looking for a fixed list, a more helpful starting point is:
“What is my body currently lacking support in?”

And ideally, that’s something explored with proper guidance so it’s safe and actually suited to you or your child.

Supplements can be supportive but they work best when they’re not used as a shortcut for understanding what’s really going on underneath.
