Parenting can be a tough gig, parenting a child with additional need can be even tougher! How would I know? I am a parent of 3 beautiful children one of whom has a disability. Professionally, I also support parents of children with additional needs. I wanted to bring my personal perspective and my professional knowledge and network together to offer listeners a place to learn feel comfort. There will be something for everyone on the Mummel Road podcast. Wanting to know more? You can find me on socials @mummelroad
You love your kids. You’re also exhausted. Both can be true.
When you’re juggling therapy appointments, school challenges, NDIS paperwork and the constant work of supporting your child’s emotions, being told to “just take a break” can feel impossible.
In this episode of Neurolicious, Emily and Kylee get honest about parental burnout when raising neurodivergent children—and the extra demands of managing your own neurodivergent brain along the way.
With personal stories, humour and practical ideas, we explore:
- The exhaustion of always being “on” and the pressure to keep pushing through.
- Why asking for help can be hard, and what meaningful support can look like.
- Finding small moments to recharge when time alone is limited.
- Sharing the household load through achievable tasks that match your child’s abilities.
- Letting go of perfection and making room for things to be done differently.
If you’re running on empty, this conversation offers understanding, realistic starting points and a reminder that your needs matter too.
Listen in, then join us on the Mummel Road Facebook page and tell us: what helps you when your tank is running low?
We’re here for honest conversations, practical ideas and those “Oh thank goodness, it’s not just us!” moments.
