We talk about generational wealth as money, property, or opportunity passed down — but the greatest inheritance we can give our children is not in our bank accounts, it’s in our nervous systems.

A child who grows up with parents who can pause before reacting, who can own their feelings instead of projecting them, who can meet conflict without breaking connection — that child carries a different kind of wealth.

They inherit stability. They inherit trust. They inherit the model of what it looks like to be human without losing humanity.

Because when parents regulate themselves, children don’t have to carry the weight of emotions that were never theirs to hold. And when parents grow in self-awareness, children don’t have to untangle the knots of old patterns just to find their own voice.

THAT is next generation wealth: passing down the freedom to live unburdened by wounds that weren’t theirs, and the strength to face life with both the courage and compassion that they deserve. ❤️

Some things are too heavy for kids to carry — and they shouldn’t have to.
Your child needs security, not stress. Safety, not secrets.

Let them have the gift of being a kid.

✨ What we don’t share with our kids can shape them just as much as what we do. ✨

The results of Australia’s first ever clinical trial of psychedelic-assisted therapy have confirmed the treatment led to rapid and sustained reductions in depression and anxiety for its participants, along with improved quality of life and increased spiritual wellbeing.

The trial, undertaken by St Vincent’s clinical psychologist, Dr Margaret Ross, and psychiatrist, Dr Justin Dwyer, is the first in the world to offer psilocybin-assisted therapy to patients with non-malignant, life-threatening conditions such as motor neurone disease and advanced heart disease, as well as cancer.

The results are now published in the General Hospital Psychiatry journal, contributing to the growing body of evidence around the benefits of psychedelic-assisted therapy.

“For people facing advanced illness with few treatment options for their psychological distress, this approach offers something potentially life-changing,” Dr Ross said.

“Our study indicated that psilocybin-assisted therapy can reduce depression and anxiety but also improve quality of life, mental health and spiritual and personal wellbeing. It didn’t just reduce psychological suffering; it also promoted positive interpersonal relationships and psychological states,” said Dr Dwyer.

Here are my priorities for neurodivergent kids.

The top branches are the most important.
They are top priorities.
Non-negotiable.

The next branches down are also really important and we won’t be neglecting those either.

The bottom branches are school attendance and academics.

Many neurodivergent kids and parents have these branches on their priority tree, which is fine. Many parents choose to remove those branches and do home learning. Also fine.

If ‘school attendance’ and ‘academics’ are branches on your kid’s tree, that’s not a problem in and of itself. These branches become a problem when they start rotting away branches that are higher up.

Parents are fed a lot of information about how school attendance is one of the highest priorities. Parents are told that attendance belongs on those top branches. In my mind it does not. It’s welcome to be on the tree. But it will not ever be as important as these other top branches.

We just pulled my eldest from school.
Academics and school attendance had become very harmful branches to have on his tree. Now we have all three kids home-schooling. And they are happier.

What do you think?

⭐️ This post showed up today and we had to share ⭐️

Research has shown that family dynamics in childhood play a significant role in the development of emotional regulation and communication styles in adulthood. Specifically, when children grow up in environments where conflicts are not resolved through open communication and apologies, they often develop behaviors and cognitive patterns that can lead to anxiety or difficulty in relationships later in life.

We might see things like increased anxiety, difficulty regulating emotions, avoidance, difficulty communicating, people pleasing or taking responsibility for other people’s emotions. Evidence suggests people are more likely to develop insecure attachment styles, characterized by anxiety and fear of abandonment. As adults, they might struggle with self esteem and to trust others, they might feel unsafe in their relationships, leading to an over-explanation of their thoughts and feelings as a way to seek reassurance. They can be also be vulnerable to harmful relationships.

To parents: It is okay to make mistakes, it is okay to get frustrated from time to time and not handle things in a way that aligns with your values. The important part is repairing! This is where the magic happens. A child who can see compassion and empathy from a parent and forgiveness towards themselves will benefit immensely.

To you: If this resonates with you, research or evidence does not mean you are destined to this pattern forever. Seek help, you can work through this! 💚
