For this episode, Steph sits down with her husband, Josh Miller, and relationship coach (and friend of the podcast) Megan Luscombe for a very honest conversation about how Steph’s ADHD shows up in their relationship. They discuss the four areas where Steph feels her ADHD playing out most often - physical touch & affection, brutal honesty, zoning out and tidiness, and the guilt & shame that Steph carries for not being able to change certain things about herself. They work through possible solutions and Megan shares a piece of advice that all couples could adopt in their own relationships, regardless of if they’re neurodiverse or not. FIND OUT MORE Megan Luscombe is a relationship coach who’s worked with individuals and couples for 13 years. She’s one of our favourites on the KICPOD.

Dr Billy Garvey is a developmental paediatrician, a senior specialist at one of Australia’s largest tertiary paediatric hospitals, and a dad to a three-year-old and a one-year-old. Billy spends a lot of time working with neurodivergent children and their parents, and is one of our most favourite KICBUMP parents so we HAD to get him in for this miniseries! In this episode, Billy & Steph speak about how ADHD presents in children and how parents can best support a child who has ADHD: what age children start displaying symptoms, seeking a diagnosis, how likely it is that ADHD parents will pass it on to their children, and most importantly, why that's not a bad thing.

This week we’re talking about how we split up the domestic labour in our homes. A few weeks ago the HILDA survey (Household, Income and Labour Dynamics in Australia Survey) came out which found that men are doing the same amount of housework now as they were when the survey started…20 years ago. This made us reflect on how we do divvy up the chores in our homes. And! Do you brush your teeth before breakfast or after? What about shampoo or conditioner? We asked you which thing you do first and turns out they were more divisive than we thought. Lastly! Is anyone else sleeping on top of a piece of plastic?
