ADHD in the Netherlands: Navigating Diagnosis, Treatment, and Cultural Stigma

Épisode 68

mercredi 2 octobre 2024 • Durée 31:26

ADHD is one of the most misunderstood labels in modern parenting, often clouded by myths that undermine the real, scientific reality of the condition. In this episode of Dam Parenting, Eva and Maren take a warm, honest, and direct look at the ADHD journey specifically within the Dutch healthcare system. Joined by researcher Marlies Visser, we explore the persistent stigma surrounding the diagnosis and the emotional toll it takes on international families trying to find the right support.

We discuss the practical "how-to" of seeking a diagnosis in the Netherlands, the hurdles of accessing specialized care, and the vulnerable reality of parenting with ADHD. This isn't a clinical lecture; it’s a personal reflection on the diverse paths families take toward understanding. Whether you are at the start of the assessment process or have been living with a diagnosis for years, this conversation offers the solidarity and data-backed insights you need to challenge misconceptions and advocate for your family’s well-being.

Whether you are currently in the thick of this identity shift or looking back on your journey, this conversation serves as a powerful reminder that the struggles you feel aren't personal failures; they are part of a massive developmental leap. Join us as we reflect on how to carry this conversation forward and ensure no mother in our community feels alone in her transformation.

Raising Empowered Girls: How Project Fearless Builds Confidence and Leadership

Épisode 59

mercredi 7 août 2024 • Durée 23:19

Raising a daughter to believe she can achieve anything is a transformative responsibility, but as girls hit their pre-teen years, research shows a sharp decline in confidence and sports participation. In this episode of Dam Parenting, Eva and Maren sit down with Sara from Project Fearless, an Amsterdam and Rotterdam-based organization dedicated to reversing that trend. We take a warm, honest, and direct look at how hands-on activities—from climate science to kickboxing—help girls aged 9–14 find their voice and break through stereotypes.

We discuss the vital link between physical activity and mental health, and why it’s never too early to start thinking about the environments our daughters will grow up in. Whether your little girl is still a toddler or approaching her teens, Sara’s insights provide a roadmap for fostering the bravery and ambition needed to lead. Join us to learn how we can all help the next generation of female leaders believe their dreams are truly limitless.

Understanding Matrescence: The Psychology of Becoming a Motherwith Dr Naomi (plus journal exercise in notes!)

Épisode 66

mercredi 18 septembre 2024 • Durée 34:15

Matrescence is the developmental transition into motherhood—much like adolescence, it is a period of massive hormonal and psychological upheaval. In this episode of Dam Parenting, Eva and Maren sit down with psychologist Dr. Naomi Gibson to take a warm, honest, and direct look at the "birth" of a mother. We move past the surface-level talk of baby gear and sleep schedules to explore the deep identity shift that happens when you transition from "you" to "us."

Naomi breaks down the psychological underpinnings of this phase, helping you make sense of the conflicting emotions and "lost" feelings that often accompany motherhood. We share personal reflections and offer a guided journal exercise (included in the show notes!) designed to help you reclaim your sense of self. Whether you are six weeks or six years into your parenting journey, this conversation provides the self-awareness and empowerment needed to navigate your own Matrescence with grace and clarity.

To help you reflect further on your own Matrescence journey, Naomi shares a journal exercise for times of transition, encouraging you to gain deeper self-awareness and clarity. Grab a simple notebook or use your phone notes, and answer one or more of these questions:

Reflect on a moment of joy from today as a mum.
Recall a challenge you overcame recently. What strengths did you use to get through it?
Think back to a moment when you felt proud of your parenting.
What’s surprised you most about becoming a mother?
How has your life changed since becoming a mother? What significant lessons have you learned along the way?

We’d love to hear how you get on! Stay connected with us on Instagram and share your reflections with us: Instagram: @damparentingpodcast | @drnaomipsychologist
