Disrupting the Overwhelm Cycle (When You’re Parenting Neurodivergent Kids)

from Moms Talk Autism Podcast · host Shannon Korza

Today we’re talking about the overwhelm cycle — how it starts, why it keeps looping, and what it actually looks like when you’re parenting neurodivergent kids, juggling puberty, appointments, social stuff, marriage, work, hormones, and your own identity. We also talk about what disrupting the overwhelm cycle actually means. Not eliminating stress. Not becoming a zen monk. But noticing the pattern and interrupting it before it takes you out. Because overwhelm isn’t just about too much on your plate.It’s about carrying too much alone. If you’re tired, stretched thin, and wondering how to stop living in reaction mode — you’re not crazy. You’re probably just stuck in the cycle. Let’s disrupt it. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
