About this listen

 Your child’s biggest struggles might be the very things no one else sees.

In this powerful conversation with pediatric nurse practitioner and mental health specialist Monica Garty Juice, we explore how subtle signs of neurodivergence often get dismissed, misdiagnosed, or go completely unnoticed — and what that means for our kids. Monica shares why so many complex kids are “hidden in plain sight,” how masking shows up in daily life, and what it looks like to finally be seen.

We also talk about how parents often become the “quarterback” of their child’s care team — even when they’re exhausted and overwhelmed — and why slowing down and tuning into the full picture is one of the most powerful things we can do.

If your child looks like they’re holding it together, but then melting down at home… this episode will feel like a deep exhale.

Listen now and let this be your reminder: You’re not imagining it. You’re not alone. And you can trust your gut.
