Lead with Love

from Backpacking Through ADHD · host Tera Greenwood

Back-to-school season is a high-stakes transition for every family, but for ADHD families, it’s layered with invisible pressure, emotional spirals, and deep questions about belonging. In this episode of Backpacking Through ADHD, I’m sharing a heart-centered guide to navigating the return to school with compassion, clarity, and connection. From the anxiety of new teachers and classroom dynamics to the overwhelm of school supplies and morning routines, this episode covers it all. We’ll explore how to support our kids emotionally, introduce them to their teachers in ways that build understanding, and set up systems that work with, not against, the ADHD brain. And just as importantly, we’ll talk about what it means to lead with love when you’re the one holding it all together. Whether your child is masking, spiraling, or trying too hard to be liked, this is your reminder: they don’t have to earn love. It’s already theirs. And so is yours. Here is a link to helpful resources.  Take a breath. You’ve got this. Let’s get ready—together.
