You, Me & ADHD also delivers talks for parents, SEND family organisations, support groups, community hubs and local authority events across the UK. These sessions create open and honest conversations around the realities of parenting, supporting and understanding children with ADHD and neurodivergent needs.

What These Talks Explore

The sessions are designed to feel supportive, relatable and reassuring rather than clinical or judgmental. Ryan shares lived experience insight into what ADHD can actually feel like internally — helping parents better understand behaviours, emotions and challenges that are often misunderstood. Topics often include:

• Understanding your child's ADHD

• Emotional regulation & overwhelm

• Reducing shame & blame

• Recognising strengths in neurodivergence

• Building confidence & resilience

• Creating supportive home environments

• Supporting mental wellbeing

• Understanding masking & burnout

Why These Talks Matter

Many parents often feel unheard, blamed or isolated while trying to support a neurodivergent child within systems that may not fully understand ADHD. Ryan speaks openly about his own experiences growing up undiagnosed and the impact understanding can have on a young person’s confidence, identity and wellbeing. The talks help families feel validated, supported and less alone in their experiences.

The Outcome

Parents often leave the sessions feeling relieved, reassured and more confident in understanding their child’s experiences. The sessions encourage more supportive conversations around ADHD while helping reduce stigma, shame and misunderstanding within families and communities.
