ADHD is never just a behaviour problem.

What looks like defiance is only the surface part we can see. Underneath it there’s usually something being communicated that hasn’t found words yet. Listening for that, and meeting it with empathy rather than a consequence, changes the whole conversation.

That’s what Vivian Dunstan came to talk about, and her ask is a simple one. Look past the behaviour, and get curious about what’s underneath it.

Understanding changes what’s possible.

Still thinking about this one, from Saturday in Auckland.

A pair of needles, moving quietly through the day. A blanket being made for a granddaughter who’s arriving soon.

Six hours of talks about how a mind works, and in the middle of it something small and soft was taking shape for someone who hasn’t turned up yet.

It’s a good reminder of what this journey actually runs on. Not the adhd conference, not the sessions. It the warmth people bring into the room, and the quiet care they’re already carrying for people they love.

Thank you for letting us share it.

💛 A little reminder from Jo at Kaiko Fidgets Aus - our Spark Partner at the South Australia ADHD Conference this September

Different nervous systems need different things and sometimes the biggest shift is giving ourselves permission to do it differently.

Swipe through for a few real-life adjustments that can make things feel a little more doable. 👉
And we’re looking forward to having the Kaiko team this September. Don’t forget to come say hello and explore more of what they do in person.

A simple thing, and it does more than it looks. Affirmations help reshape the brain's focus and self perception.

ADHD often comes with a running inner dialogue of criticism and frustration, built up over years of hearing words like distracted, lazy and inconsistent.

Saying an affirmation interrupts that pattern. It engages the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain that handles attention, planning and motivation.

Try adding one or two of these to your daily routine, and let your mind turn toward possibility instead of shame.

Our new website is live, and we're a little bit excited about it.

The conference dates, the books and workbooks, the tools, the directory, all in one place, and finally wearing the new coat.

Have a look around. Hope you love it as much as we do.

💛 South Australia, who deserves their moment?

Our Spirited Local Hero campaign is officially open for SA, and we want you to help us choose someone special from our community. ✨

The teacher who just gets it.
The therapist who helped things finally click.
The advocate who keeps showing up.
Or that one person who made your ADHD journey feel a little less overwhelming and a lot less lonely.

So many people make a difference quietly, without ever expecting recognition. This is our chance to celebrate them. 💛

It doesn’t need to be a big story. A name, a moment, a few words about the difference they made, we’d simply love to hear it.

👇 Tag your local hero in the comments and tell us why you chose them.

One community-nominated hero will become our South Australia Spirited Local Hero and receive:
🎟️ A complimentary ticket to the South Australia ADHD Conference
🎤 Special recognition on stage
📣 Their story celebrated across our social media
🎉 A 10% conference discount code to keep or share

And because every nomination helps shine a light on someone wonderful, everyone who nominates will receive a 10% conference discount code too. ✨

Now over to you, SA… Who’s the person you’d love to see celebrated?

💛Parenting an ADHD child doesn’t come with a handbook, but sometimes a few gentle reminders can make the week feel a little easier.

Our South Australia Impact Partner, Meaningful Activities Occupational Therapy Services , has shared 5 practical parenting tips centred around connection, understanding and regulation:
✨ Make time for small moments of connection
✨ Listen for the need behind the behaviour
✨ Explore the supports that work for your child
✨ Celebrate effort, not just outcomes
✨ Protect the basics that support regulation

Nothing complicated. Nothing about being the “perfect” parent. Just practical ideas to keep in your back pocket for the week ahead. 💛

We’re so glad to have Meaningful Activities joining us as an Impact Partner at the South Australia ADHD Conference this September and sharing more of their knowledge with our community along the way. ✨

💙 Before the learning begins, we begin together.

This Saturday, our New Zealand ADHD Conference will open with a Whakatau at 9:30 AM, a welcome to bring everyone into the space, acknowledge those gathered, and begin the day with connection and respect.

Before the speakers take the stage, before the notes start filling up, and before all the conversations in between, we’ll take a moment to simply arrive together as a community.

If you’re joining us, come a little earlier, settle in, explore the exhibits and be part of the welcome from the very beginning. 💙

🕣 8:30 AM — Registration + Exhibits Open
💛 9:30 AM — Whakatau, Housekeeping + MC Introduction
🎤 10:05 AM — First Speaker Begins

Auckland, we’re so close now. See you Saturday. ✨

"Spirited". Passionate. Courageous. Resilient and full of heart. That's what we see every day in this community.

My Spirited Mind is proudly the next chapter of My Spirited Child. The community kept growing, so we grew with it. ✨

Our new mark is one continuous, flowing thread. It reflects the beautifully intricate way a spirited mind grows, explores, imagines and connects, and it has no true beginning or end, because growth and self discovery are lifelong journeys.

Through every twist, turn and new chapter, My Spirited Mind walks beside you, offering understanding, knowledge, connection and hope.

Every mind has its own journey. Together, we can create something extraordinary.
