We sit down with family physician Emma Hostetter, who shares her deeply personal journey navigating the challenges of parenting a neurodivergent child with ADHD. Emma opens up about the emotional toll, the gaps between her medical knowledge and real-life experience, and the transformative shift in her parenting approach. Through reframing ADHD and embracing empathy-based strategies, Emma found hope and connection with her child.

Emma Hostetter is a family physician.

She discusses the KevinMD article, “What medicine never taught me about parenting a child with ADHD.”

Our presenting sponsor is DAX Copilot by Microsoft.
