    [PODCAST] How Healthier Coping Strategies Lead to Substance Abuse Prevention with Jess Lahey

    According to the National Center on Addiction and Substance Abuse, the nation's largest preventable and costly health problem is teen drug addiction. As parents, drug and alcohol abuse is something that keeps us up at night. And while we can talk with them until we're blue in the face about the dangers, we're never really sure about how effective our conversations are. What if addiction prevention is something all parents can help with - but it has nothing to do with talking about drugs themselves? I LOVED this conversation with Jessica Lahey, author, educator, and speaker. She's the author of The Gift of Failure and The Addiction Inoculation. Listen to the episode here: Keep Learning with Dr. Emily… For Parents: On the first Friday of every month, join me and fellow parents on this journey of raising neurodivergent kids and teens for live virtual workshops! You can now become a Substack paid subscriber for $18/mo and access my LIVE workshops and select REPLAYS. After a year of attending parent workshops and engaging with this community, you can expect: * A better understanding of your child’s skills & how to adjust expectations * An expanded toolkit of strategies to support your neurodivergent child * Connection with a community of like-minded parents and educators * Confidence in how to effectively communicate with your child’s teachers * More ideas to nurture your child’s social and emotional development For Teachers: Teachers can learn on-demand with Dr. Emily through The Neurodiverse Classroom® professional development training. Created for preK-8 teachers who want to better understand the learning needs of neurodivergent students in general education settings, The Neurodiverse Classroom blends student learning, neurodiversity, and mental wellness to help educators feel more effective and students feel more successful.
