The Childhood Collective
9/25/2024
SUMMARY
Each of us has a journey that led us to where we are today, and one of the most beautiful parts of human connection is understanding another person's story. In today's episode, comedian and podcaster Shannon Payton opens up about her journey through infertility, the ups and downs of adoption, and leaving a cult. Each of these experiences have shaped Shannon's experience as an ADHD parent. She now uses her platform to share humor with other parents, while advocating for mental health awareness. Please note, listener discretion is advised due to possible trigger warnings: infertility, failed adoption, and leaving a cult.
MEET SHANNON PAYTON
Shannon Payton, affectionately known as Shanny Pants to her vast online community, thrives as a dynamic content creator and podcaster based in Rocklin, California. Balancing a successful career in real estate with her passion for humor, Shannon catapulted into the limelight in 2020 when her viral video about being stuck at home with her kids captured the hearts of audiences worldwide, propelling her into a whirlwind of internet stardom.
Harnessing the momentum of her online presence, Shannon established her digital footprint across various social media platforms under the handles @therealshannypants and ShannyPants, inviting followers into her world of laughter, trials, and triumphs. Recognizing the desire for deeper connection, she ventured into the realm of podcasting, birthing 'The ShannyPants Show,' now flourishing in its fourth season.

#163: Is It ADHD, Anxiety, or Both?
The Childhood Collective
8/28/2024
SUMMARY
Difficulty getting started on a task. Working very slowly during a math test. Difficulty falling asleep at night. Are you ready for a pop quiz?? Here it is: Do these examples make you think of ADHD, or anxiety? What if we told you that they could be either one... or both? The truth is, many times these diagnoses can look similar on the surface. But they are very different, and need different types of support! Today, Lori and Mallory are sharing about the overlap and differences between ADHD and anxiety from the perspective of two child psychologists.
MEET OUR TEAM
We are Lori, Mallory, and Katie. Lori and Mallory are child psychologists, and Katie is a speech language pathologist. Most importantly, we are moms, just like you. After working with families over a combined total of 40 years, we saw a need to provide ongoing support and education to parents raising children with ADHD.

#162: Parents Who Have ADHD: Systems that Work with Amy Marie Hann
The Childhood Collective
8/21/2024
SUMMARY
On this ADHD parenting journey, it is SO important to have friends who understand your journey! For us, Amy Marie Hann of @activatedadhdmama has been that person. As an ADHD parent herself, Amy is relatable, honest, and full of practical ideas to make life easier for ADHD families. As we transition back into the school year, we asked Amy to share how she tweaks her systems for every season. This is the perfect episode for you if you find yourself signing up for *way* too many activities, getting bored with everyday chores, or struggling to manage your home life.
MEET AMY
Amy is the creator of Master the Mundane, a unique online course + community that empowers moms with ADHD to manage their home and family in a way that works for their brain. ADHD has touched every area of her life. She herself was diagnosed at the age of 5 and her three kids, husband, dad, and sister are also ADHD. She’s also fostered, adopted and homeschooled kids with ADHD and brings a wealth of personal experience, authenticity and relatability to everything she creates. She believes that the ADHD brain is uniquely created to bring good to the world and the best thing we can do as moms of ADHD kids is to model what it looks like to thrive with ADHD. She’s a loud laugher, avid reader, and workout enthusiast with a mild obsession with HGTV.

Heading back to school can bring up all the feelings. Maybe you feel relieved to get back to a more consistent schedule… and at the same time, you may be nervous about your child having a new teacher.
