Last week I had the pleasure of being on podcast with the fantastic Natalie. 💛

We went back to basics and discussed what EBSA stood for and it made me think that if you’re new to following me, you may not have heard the term before, so I just wanted to explain. EBSA stands for Emotionally Based School Avoidance and is something a lot of children, especially neurodivergent children, struggle with.

EBSA is not a behavioural issue, but the brains response to an environment that doesn’t feel safe.

Do give the episode a watch, it’s only 20 minutes and is a fantastic insight into EBSA.

Thank you again Natalie and Victoria for having me on your podcast 💛

Supporting a child with EBSA can feel incredibly lonely 💛

The worry, the second guessing, trying to do the right thing while feeling like nobody truly understands

That’s why I created Extraordinary Minds 💛

Support, guidance, and a space where you don’t have to figure it out alone

DM ‘JOIN’ for details ✨

If school anxiety is weighing heavily on your family right now, please remember this 💛

Your child does not need perfection from you.
They need safety, understanding, and connection.

I recently had the privilege of speaking with on their podcast about Emotionally Based School Avoidance (EBSA), school anxiety, neurodivergence, and the emotional impact this can have on young people and their families.

In this conversation we talk about:
🧡 Why EBSA is not “bad behaviour” or defiance
🧡 The impact of stress and overwhelm on the nervous system
🧡 How many neurodivergent young people are struggling silently in school environments
🧡 The importance of safety, compassion, and understanding
🧡 Supporting parents who are often carrying so much behind closed doors

This is such an important conversation and one I know many families will relate to.

The full podcast is around 20 minutes long and I hope it helps parents feel seen, understood, and less alone.
