What happens when we reframe neurodivergence not as a deficit, but as a natural variation in brain architecture? Sarah Eagle, founder of Joy Diving Australia and late-diagnosed autistic woman with ADHD, offers a refreshing perspective that celebrates brain differences rather than pathologizing them.

Sarah speaks candidly about the shame many late-diagnosed adults carry after years of being told they need to be "normal." Through her work, she helps clients develop what she calls "sensory lifestyle medicine"- practical adjustments to their environment that support nervous system regulation. For families, she introduces polyvagal theory as a framework to understand behaviours as communications of the nervous system, fostering non-blaming language around regulation and dysregulation.

🎙️ On this week’s Empowered Parent Podcast, I sit down with Anushka Phal, Founder of Unmeed Psychology.

We dive into a fascinating conversation about neurodiversity and culture - exploring the question: How much of our behaviour is cultural, and how much is part of being neurodivergent?

It’s a rich and thought-provoking episode you won’t want to miss.

Finding Your Voice: Advocacy Without Burning Out
Free Online Masterclass with Paige Carter (Inclusive Oak)
Supported by Dana Baltutis (My Therapy House)
Paige Carter is an incredible mum of not one, but two neurodivergent children. Over the years she has become a fierce and compassionate advocate, navigating the education, health and NDIS systems. Her journey hasn’t been easy, but she has learnt what it really takes to advocate well - without losing herself in the process.
I first met Paige at a networking event and was inspired not only by how she fights for her own kids, but also by how she supports other parents walking the same path. That’s why I’ve invited her to share her story and wisdom in a free masterclass for our community.
Do you feel like you’re always being “that parent” - fighting for your child’s needs, juggling appointments, meetings, therapies and school systems, and hoping someone listens?
Advocacy is essential. But when it’s constant, it can leave you drained, exhausted and doubting yourself.
This masterclass will help you reimagine advocacy in a way that protects your energy and builds your confidence.
What you’ll gain:
* How to notice the signs of advocacy burnout early
* Simple phrases that open doors (instead of creating conflict)
* Boundaries that protect your energy and peace of mind
* Grounding strategies you can use before tough conversations
Paige will share her lived experience as a parent and founder of Inclusive Oak. I’ll add the therapeutic lens - showing why your own calm, regulated voice is one of the greatest gifts you can give your child.
We’ll finish with a Q&A so you can leave with answers, tools and hope.
When: Tuesday, September 30, 2025 (TONIGHT)
Time: 7:30 pm ACST

🌱 Supporting Children Beyond Our Own Community 🌱

At My Therapy House, we believe every child deserves the chance to grow up safe, nurtured, and supported. While our daily work focuses on children and families here in Adelaide, we also know there are babies and children facing disadvantage beyond our own community.

On October 18th, there’s a wonderful fundraiser in Adelaide raising vital support for these children. It’s a chance to come together, enjoy a fun evening, and contribute to something bigger than ourselves.

If you’re free, we’d love you to join us - because when we come together, we can extend care and belonging far beyond our own families and create ripples of change.

💙 Hope to see you there.

This may be helpful for parents whose children live with PDA. Meltdowns are not behavioural, they are panic attacks and need to be treated as such. ❤️
