“I feel awful for the time spent in conflict because I had no clue of the why behind his behavior.”
ADHD is not the problem.
Navigating it without the full picture is.
Having the full picture means understanding your child’s ADHD brain, your child’s life outside of ADHD, and how the two are working together or against each other.
You have probably tried the strategies. The systems. The conversations that started well and went sideways. And somewhere in all of it you started wondering if you were the one getting it wrong.
You were not getting it wrong. You were working without the full picture.
Meet your host
Tyler Dorsey
Tyler Dorsey was the kid who failed. Her report cards proved it. She turned her ADHD from a crutch to a superpower.
What makes this different.
The kid nobody had a map for who found her way through the messy middle and built something she loves on the other side? Now she makes that map for you and is steady enough to help you navigate through the chaos.
Tyler Dorsey was the kid who failed. Her report cards proved it. Her teachers hinted at the struggle. Tyler’s parents were in the trenches with her at home. The systems that worked for everyone else did not work for her. For years, Tyler thought that meant something was wrong with her. Tyler is not someone still in the middle of the hard part, telling you to try a different system, stay consistent, or wait it out. Tyler built a life she absolutely loves. She found trust in herself. She turned her ADHD from a crutch to a superpower. And she genuinely cannot think of anything better than helping you help your child get there too.
A framework that gives you a starting point.
This week hands you a framework refined across 7,000+ ADHDers and the families who love them since 2014. With that framework in place, the strategies you have already tried start working. They have something to sit on top of. The years of trying start adding up to something.
Coaching that goes home with you.
Whether the question in the room is yours or someone else’s, the answer is yours to use.
This is not about willpower.
Not capability. Not laziness. Not something more discipline would fix. This week starts from a different place. The kind where you stop pushing harder and start knowing what to do next.
A week to find the full picture.
A masterclass on how ADHD works, and how to apply that understanding to your real home, your real relationship, your real life. The difference between managing ADHD and navigating it.
Here’s how the week works.
Watch the training videos. Join the live coaching sessions. Bring what’s happening in your home right now. Choose how deep in you want to go.
5 prerecorded sessions to decode the brain.
To help you decode the brain, the patterns, and what has been missing in everything you have tried. Yours to watch and rewatch through the 1-week access window.
5 live Zoom sessions in real time.
Apply what is in the videos to real homes, real questions, real situations.
Videos release Monday through Friday the week of July 13. Access ends Sunday, July 19. One week to watch, rewatch, and let it land.
You bring your real questions. You get coached on your home, your child, your situation, by name.
You watch the room. ADHD shows up in similar patterns across every family. The question someone else asks is likely to turn out to be your question too. And the answer to that question is likely to fit your home also.
Who this is for.
You have probably been playing all the scenarios over in your head. What happens if nothing changes. What it looks like for your child a year from now, five years from now. Maybe your partner sees it differently, or does not see it at all. But the decision to show up, even alone, even unsure, might be the most important thing you do for your child this year. As We Bought a Zoo put it:
“Sometimes all you need is twenty seconds of insane bravery. And I promise you, something great will come of it.”
We Bought a ZooThis is for you if you are a parent of a child with ADHD, any age from 5 to 25.
The parent of a younger child (ages 5–12).
The morning falls apart before most people are even awake. The checklists you printed are on the floor. The sibling with no issues is watching you handle the one who does. You are not trying to raise a perfect kid. You are just trying to get through Tuesday without everyone leaving the house in tears. You have tried the systems. They worked for a week. You are not looking for one more strategy to tape to the refrigerator. You need someone to help you understand what is happening in your child’s brain so the next hard moment makes sense before you react.
The parent of a teenager (ages 13–18).
He is in the “fine, I’ll get an F” mode and you do not know how to reach him anymore. She is on her phone at dinner, and the last time you tried to start a conversation she said you were asking too many questions. The harder you push, the further they go. You have tried being strict. You have tried backing off. It gets the work done but it really hurts the relationship. What you have not had yet is the understanding of what is driving the behavior underneath, and that is the thing that changes how you show up for them next.
The parent of a young adult (ages 18–25).
You cannot make them do anything anymore and you know it. You watch them agree to something and then not do it. You pick your moments carefully. You monitor what you say and how you say it because when things are going well you do not want to be the one who breaks it. You do not know where support ends and enabling begins. And somewhere underneath all of it is the question you do not say out loud: is this just how it is going to be? You still want to help. You just need to know how to do it in a way that actually reaches them.
Real shifts from the room.
“When your child is diagnosed with ADHD there is no information given on what that means. How their brain works. How to handle the big blowups.”
“The more I learn about this, the more I wish I had known sooner and could have been dealing with his blowups so differently over the years.”
“My son had a rough day at school. Once we talked to him about it, it was happening because he wasn’t understanding the math.”
“My 1 degree shift has been to imagine myself in my son’s shoes and remember he is not doing things on purpose but only reacting as he knows how right now.”
“I love what you said about setting him up to help himself. That’s what we want. To help him grow into an independent adult.”
“I came home and 5 out of 7 tasks were complete. No fighting or arguing about doing them was a big plus.”
“I was so worried it was something I was doing wrong. What I got from this week was the understanding that it was not about me. It was about his brain doing exactly what an ADHD brain does. I finally stopped taking it personally.”
“I came in barely holding it together. I left with a completely different conversation happening in my house. Not because my daughter changed overnight. Because I did.”
“I have been to therapy, read the books, tried every chart and system out there. Nothing clicked until I understood the why behind the behavior. This week gave me the why.”
What you’ll walk away with.
A new way to see what is going on.
The blowup is not bad behavior. The shutdown is not giving up. The avoidance is not laziness. Once you see what is happening under the surface, the next hard moment makes sense before you react. The person across from you feels seen. What used to spiral into an argument starts turning into a conversation.
Answers shaped for your real life.
In Platinum, you bring your real questions and get coached on your home, your relationship, your real life. In General Admission, someone in the room asks the question you did not know you had, and the answer fits for you too. You walk out with ideas built for your situation, ready to use the next time it gets hard.
How to find the real reason behind the behavior.
A way of asking that uncovers the truth instead of the surface answer. The kind of question that has been missing from your conversations. They start to believe you want to understand them. And that kind of trust is what makes the people you love come to you in the hard moments, instead of hiding from you.
Proof that you are not the only one.
The parent next to you had the same dinner-table fight last night. The parent across the room is carrying the same weight you have been carrying alone. The struggle you thought was just yours, the exhaustion, the self-doubt, the fear that this is just how it is going to be, is shared by every person in this room. You walk in feeling alone. You walk out as someone navigating something hard, alongside everyone else doing the same.
You are not failing.
You have tried everything and nothing is sticking.
And somewhere underneath that is a fear that this is just how it is always going to be.
You know something deeper is driving the struggle but you cannot figure out what.
And the energy you keep pouring into it is never adding up. Every hard moment you cannot make sense of chips away at your trust in yourself, your time, and your belief that this can change.
It looks like capability one day and chaos the next.
And underneath, the belief is forming that the good days are not going to hold.
You keep trying and keep ending up back in the same place.
And some part of you has started to wonder if this is just as good as it gets.
That is not ADHD being hard. That is ADHD being navigated without the full picture: the brain, the life around it, and how the two are working together or against each other.
You are done surviving this. You are ready to navigate it.
Understanding ADHD changes what you know.
The live sessions change what you do with it.
Every session is a real room. A space where you bring what is happening in your home right now and work through it in real time with someone who understands what they are looking at.
The kind of room that gets you a piece of the puzzle you have been missing for years.
From past Platinum rooms.
A parent had been trying to figure out why their child would not come down for dinner. One curious question got them the answer they never would have guessed. The food was bland. That week they connected over a meal they made together because of it.
A parent realized mid session that every time their child acted out they had been focused on stopping the behavior instead of understanding what was causing it. They left the room and tried a different question that same evening. For the first time in months the conversation did not spiral.
A parent discovered they had been trying to solve for motivation when the real layer was shame. Their child was not refusing help because they did not want to do the work. They were refusing it because asking for help felt like proof they could not do it themselves. Walking out they had a completely different place to start.
General Admission.
General Admission puts you in the room for all five live sessions.
You hear everything. Every question. Every answer. Every moment where the pieces start coming together for someone else. You will leave with answers to questions you never would have thought to ask. And more often than not one of them will be the answer you did not even know you had.
And sometimes that one answer is the thing that rewrites the whole story you have been telling yourself about what is going on. And a different story is what drives what you do next.
Choose your experience.
For the person who is done with general answers and ready for specific ones. You bring your situation. Your child. Your home. And you work through it in real time with someone who can see what you have not been able to see yet. And even if you do not have a specific question yet, you are the kind of person who is going to squeeze everything they possibly can out of every single session.
- All five prerecorded training videos
- 5 live Zoom sessions, bring your real situation and ask your questions directly
- One full week of access (ends Sunday, July 19)
For the parent who knows they need the understanding but is not quite ready to put their situation in the room yet. You want to learn. You want to observe. You want to leave with clarity without having to be the one asking.
- All five prerecorded training videos
- A seat in all 5 live Platinum sessions
- One full week of access (ends Sunday, July 19)
You have questions.
We have answers.
You have not tried everything. It just feels that way because what you have been trying has been missing a piece of the full picture. This week is not another thing to try. It is the understanding that makes everything you have already tried start to fall into place so that you can create a process that works.
Reserve My SpotYou do not need them to be willing. You just need to be. Research shows it only takes one person consistently showing up with a different understanding to shift the entire dynamic around them. Not because anyone agreed to change. Because calm and clarity are contagious. This week gives you what you need to be that person.
Reserve My SpotYes. If you knew exactly what you needed you would not be here. That uncertainty is not a problem. It is the starting point. You will not leave with all the answers. You will leave with the clarity to start finding them. And that is the skill that keeps working long after this week ends.
Reserve My SpotOutput is not the measure. What it costs to produce it is. Whether it is a child holding it together at school while crashing at home, or an adult managing on the outside while running on empty on the inside, that is the signal. The time to build the foundation is before the scaffold disappears. Not after.
Reserve My SpotCoaching is not classified as therapy so insurance does not cover it. However HSA and FSA accounts both do. Try your HSA or FSA card at checkout first. If it does not go through you can pay with your regular credit or debit card and submit for reimbursement.
Reserve My SpotPlatinum is for the person who is ready to bring their specific situation into the room and get coached on it directly. You have questions. You want answers that fit your exact circumstances. You are ready to be in it. And even if you do not have a specific question yet, you are the kind of person who is going to squeeze everything they possibly can out of every single session.
General Admission is for the person who knows they need the understanding but is not quite ready to put their situation in the room yet. You want to learn. You want to observe. You want to leave with clarity without having to be the one asking.
Both get the full week of content and a seat in every live session, with access through Sunday, July 19. The difference is how deep in you are ready to go right now.
Reserve My SpotAll videos are prerecorded and release on a schedule. You have one full week to watch at your own pace. Access ends Sunday, July 19.
Reserve My SpotCome to as many as you can. Each one covers different situations and different layers. And sometimes one question in that room is all it takes.
Think about a plane flying from New York to Los Angeles. If the nose shifts just one degree in the right direction at the start the plane lands exactly where it needs to be. One degree the wrong way and you are 40 miles off in Los Angeles traffic, or somewhere over the Pacific Ocean trying to figure out how you got there. One degree the right way and you land. One question in that room can be that one degree shift in the right direction. Small. Almost invisible in the moment. But it changes where you land entirely.
Reserve My SpotYes. This masterclass covers the ADHD brain at every age. If your child is 18 to 25 and you are watching them struggle with independence, relationships, or just getting through the day, this week gives you the understanding to support them in a way that actually lands. You cannot control the outcomes anymore, but you can change how you show up for them. And that matters more than most parents realize.
Reserve My SpotYes. And here is why. ADHD at its root looks remarkably similar across ages and circumstances. The details of your situation are yours. But the patterns underneath them show up in every room. Someone will describe their situation and you will think that is exactly what is happening in my home. Someone will ask a question you did not know you had and the answer will land like it was meant for you. The group is not what makes this less specific. It is what makes it more powerful.
Reserve My SpotMany parents of children with ADHD have it themselves. This week is built for you too. Understanding your own brain alongside your child’s changes everything: how you respond in hard moments, how you build systems that actually hold, and how you give your child the understanding you never had. You are in the right place.
Reserve My SpotYou have been trying to find a solution for something that did not come with a user manual.
This week is where that changes. Not by handing you all the answers. By giving you a way to understand what is happening.
There is a way forward.
