  S5 Ep 13: Bonus Guest Episode: AuDHD Coaching and Circle of Security Parenting for ND Families with Clare Woods

  Aug 11, 202648 minS5

  Today I talk to Clare Woods, a Specialist Nurse, AuDHD Coach and trained Circle of Security Parenting (COSP)™ facilitator with extensive experience in trauma-informed, neuro-affirming and relational approaches, about the benefits of both coaching and the COSP™ Programme for neurodivergent parents. COSP™ can help parents understand unique attachment expressions and behaviours in children, reframing behaviours as opportunities for connection. COSP™’s structured, reflective approach supports neurodivergent parents themselves by providing clear frameworks for understanding and responding to their children’s needs, fostering deeper connection and joy despite communication differences. You can find out more about Clare's work at https://www.theaudhdcoachingcompany.org.uk/ and you can book on to the COSP™ programme for ND Birth followers at https://www.ndbirth.com/event-details/circle-of-security-parenting-programme Thank you for listening!

  S5 Ep 9: Bonus Guest Episode: 'She Seems Fine to Me' The Importance of Being Open and Honest about Postnatal OCD with Kimberley Nixon

  May 7, 202648 min

  Happy publication day to our ambassador, Kimberly Nixon! She joins us on the Podcast to talk about her new book ‘She Seems Fine to Me’ and why it was so important to write it. This memoir is an open, honest and unfiltered account of her experience of trying to conceive, having a baby, and then the brutal reality of experiencing postnatal OCD. Of all the perinatal mental health conditions, postnatal OCD is particularly cruel because it lives in the shadows. It's difficult for people to share their struggles because they're often dealing with very frightening thought patterns and imagery, and there's a genuine fear that they'll be perceived as a risk to their baby if anybody could see what is going on in their mind, and that's why a book like this, which will validate the experiences of others, is so important. It will also help educate health professionals on what supports can help. We're grateful to Kim for sharing her story. You can purchase her book via the links here: https://www.simonandschuster.co.uk/books/She-Seems-Fine-to-Me/Kimberley-Nixon/9781398557536 Kim also references useful resources including: Instagram https://www.instagram.com/taming.olivia/ Perinatal Mental Health Partnership https://www.instagram.com/perinatalmhpartnership/ PANDAS Foundation https://pandasfoundation.org.uk/ Thank you for listening!
