I overlapped with Debbie Reber years ago and the lasting impression she made on me was, “wow! Tenderness and Competence in the same package!” Now, re-finding her again I see that she hasn’t changed that wonderful combo! But her message is so honed and masterful. I find her words to comfort any parent. Because all kids are “wired differently” sometimes, right? I found her wisdom accessible and memorable.

OG follower here! Debbie and TILT is one of our go-to resources for neurodivergent families (including my own!). Thankful for this resource!

I’m a coach and wanted to learn more about PDA in order to help my clients with kids who may have some level of PDA. Thank you!

Amazing and helpful content and has lead me to so many other helpful resources.

The information on this podcast and the TiLT Community changed the trajectory of my family. For 8 + years, Debbie has brought in relevant, science based experts on parenting differently wired kids and exploring neurodiversity. I take away something applicable from every podcast I listen to and find resources to explore deeper when needed or desired. This is a considerate place to find answers, help reclaim the joys in parenting, and possibly explore a different lens to view the world through!

I am the mom of an 8 year old neurodivergent little boy who has quite complex needs. I just listened to your episode with Dr. Marcia Eckerd and I am so grateful for it. For years, my husband and I have been trying to understand our son in order to help him. This podcast outlined his profile so well, and Dr. Eckerd offered sustainable, realistic tools for both home and school. So great!! It helped me see the forest for the trees so that I can help my son do the same.

What an amazing resource to parents who want to learn more about supporting their children well. No matter what kind of struggles you are facing. A loving and safe place to talk about hard things and have tools. Thank you!!

I just barely found this podcast and have been listening to several episodes per day (and taking lots of notes!). Each one is filled with great information and I am starting to feel more hopeful and less alone in the journey of parenting a neurodivergent child. Thank you for creating such a helpful resource, I will be sure to recommend this to all my friends in similar situations!

As a licensed child psychologist, I am such a big fan of this podcast and the authenticity Debbie brings in every episode! This is a podcast I will be recommending to my patients and their families.

This is an incredible resource for parents, educators and advocates for the differently wired people in the world. I love Debbie’s honesty and courage in her approach to supporting her son and connecting with advocates and experts. Parenting a differently wired kiddo can be a lonely and challenging journey. It’s refreshing and encouraging to hear how others are doing it and how to best support them. Our generally rigid educational systems are not set up to support these kids and all of their amazing attributes, it’s very useful to hear how others approach the journey.

The best episodes are great. I loved Kristy Forbes, for example. But I’m not a fan of how this show also gives a platform to people who aren’t quite as enlightened at times. (They’re usually parents talking about their own kids.) I think the host knows that functioning labels are frowned up, yet the latest guest talks about her son having high-functioning autism. I stopped listening after that. It seems like the host, Debbie Reber, really gets it, but the guests wind up being such a mixed bag. And are the kids being discussed on these episodes being consulted before their parents talk about some of their worst moments publicly? If this show was awful across the board, I’d just walk away and not say anything. But the potential is there. I just wish the guests were held to a higher standard sometimes (and not invited if they can’t meet it).

Right in the open of the latest episode when one of the guests talked about doctors saying “oh, your child can’t be autistic because they make eye contact or have a sense of humor,” it took me back to my experience with my son. We heard that for years! It’s so important to have more real conversations of what neurodiversity is and how it shows up in different people so we can support those who need it and ditch the old stereotypes. Tilt Parenting is always a great listen and I really enjoyed this episode.

I love this podcast so much, I have seriously had some of these episodes on repeat because there is so much good info I am just trying to take it all in and take good notes! So thankful to have this resource!

I have found so much value in Debbie’s expertise and the guests she brings on. As a mom of 5, 3 who have different abilities, this podcast is gold. It normalizes the parenting experience with differently wired kids and helps me feel capable and grateful for my different kids. 10/10 recommend!

I’m the mother of a differently wired child and a psychologist who specializes in stress, trauma, and resilience support for humanitarian workers. I’ve listened to this podcast for years and it’s one of my go-to favorites. Debbie brings lived experience, a sharp mind, and deep compassion to her interviews. I’ve learned so much from this podcast and have also felt so reassured that I’m not the only one walking a very difficult and confusing parenting journey.

Relevant, interesting topics and no shame or judgement. I have a 2e kiddo and this podcast is great with helping me manage and advocate for him.

Thank you for your episodes on PDA (173, 191 & 307)! I needed to hear all of this today! Feeling seen, -MW

Like Debbie, I’m raising a neurodivergent kid and we also homeschool. I’ve found Debbie’s personal discussions so helpful in treading our path on this journey. Her book is fab too. Also love the guests she has on, the discussions are interesting and informative. Thanks for the show, look forward to more!

I just started listening to this show, and wow am I hooked! The past few shows have really resonated with me - especially the interview with Dr. Lori Desautels. As a biological, foster, and adoptive dad, I am having to relearn how to parent, and this show has been a huge encouragement. Thanks!

So grateful for this brilliant podcast for providing valuable content and helping me feel supported on my own tilt parenting journey.

My son is on the autism spectrum This podcast has been life-changing for my family Thank you!

Tilt is is an exceptional podcast. It’s incredibly useful, informative and well produced. The world (especially our 2e world) is a better place because of Debbie. Thank you for all you do for our community and for families everywhere.

This podcast has consistently offered invaluable information and support as I try to parent my two differently wired children as thoughtfully as possible. I’m grateful to Debbie for her hard work and dedication on behalf of our community.

I am so grateful to have found it and look forward to more episodes (after I finish binge listening to the archives)!

For every parent that’s felt extra alone in their journey, the wealth of resources and knowledge shared here will be so welcome and comforting to learn about. I am glad beyond words to have discovered this podcast. Thank you so much Debbie Reber for what you do.

All those caring for or teaching a neurodivergent child need to listen to this podcast.

I found the SMA a few years ago when I was struggling with anxiety and how to manage it. It was like I had found a long lost friend! Sara always has the thing I need to hear at the time I need to hear it. From funny stories about being a mom, to business, helpful tips to get out of your own way, and tough topics she never fails to teach me something new. Thank you for this podcast! I look forward to new episodes every week.

If you have a child who’s differently-wired in any way, you will learn so much and come away with so much energy and positivity.

What a great show! Debbie asks great questions of all of her super interesting guests. I think every parent, whether parenting a differently wired kid or not can benefit from listening to Tilt! Debbie is kind, inclusive and informative and gets super great practical info from her guests. Looking forward to listening to more!

We have always realized our boy was wired differently than other kids and especially our other boys we’ve raised! Our son is so special and loving but he struggled emotionally, he responds without thought, takes everything VERY personally, and really struggles to focus on school or anything that is in a group setting. We could give him a list of items to do because he wouldn’t retain any of those requests. We have yet to get him diagnosed (pending an appointment) however it makes me feel so much better knowing he isn’t the only one! I already love this podcast and I’m only a few episodes in!

Don’t know where I’d be without this podcasts! Thank you!!!!

I love your unique combination of mindfulness and parenting. Your fresh perspective and dedication is inspiring and contagious. Thank you for all that you do.

Debbie’s podcast is brilliant with loads of actionable information to guide parents of differently wired children. In a realm where there is no “normal,” she helps normalize the conversation, remove the stigma and support our differently wired children.

Thank you for your podcast. It has been a saving grace. My differently wired son has been pushing me to my limits. I love how organized your website is to find topics and ideas. As our challenges change, I was able to use your podcasts to help find my center and to think positively and proactively. I cannot thank you enough. I’d love to hear more on anxiety, school refusals, explosive behavior, and Asperger’s. You are my saving Grace! Thank you!

The information here is clear, concise, practical, well researched , paradigm shifting, helpful and most importantly hopeful. Thank you. Your work makes the world a better place.

This podcast has given me sooooo many ideas to help my ADHD/ODD child in school, sports and at home. Just implementing the executive functioning ideas has improved her skills to the point she doesn’t need the lists anymore and we have moved on to higher level challenges. It really does work!!! I love seeing the changes and I don’t even mind the hard times as much because I have more tools in my toolbox to deal with those hard times now.

Tilt Parenting my “go-to” when I need a resource or need to connect with my tribe of parenting raising differently wired kids. Debbie is brilliant!!

This podcast is loaded with amazing interviews. Debbie gives sound advice on how to navigate parenting a differently wired kid.

So many helpful tips week after week. We appreciate the topics and find them so relevant. Thank You!

I have been looking for resource information that seems exactly on topic to this podcast. I have listened to five or six of them so far hoping to be able to find information and resources that would be helpful. Unfortunately I have determined that they really don’t start talking about the topic until 10 to 12 minutes into the podcast. At that point in time, the discussions are very superficial and don’t offer much depth. On the podcast about fathers, it was 20 minutes into the podcast before we started hearing any advice on how to act or things to consider. Ultimately, the entire podcast seemed to be focused on getting fathers to understand that their role in a child’s development is important. However, if your dad listening to this podcast you’re probably already there and thus I wasted o we half an hour listening listening. On the ADHD on nutrition, I listened intently to the entire podcast and only heard at a high level that iron, zinc and magnesium are important for ADHD. The speaker has amazing knowledge and has done substantial research, but we did not get any of it other than a quick reference to look at her website or read their book. They missed a great opportunity to have a substantive discussion. This site has the potential to be a wonderful resource for us parents helping out differently wired kids. I hope that they find a way to reach that potential.

Excellent resource for all the overwhelmed parents - thank you!

highly recommend the listen! Debbie speaks on much needed to hear topics and is a wealth of knowledge!

I love how specific these topics are for my kind of children. They guests are outstanding!

This podcast has helped me SO MUCH. Absolutely invaluable. Thank you!

I think everyone can take something away from the Tilt parenting journey. Gifted kids, 2e, neurotypical and nontypical all* are special with their own set of challenges and Tilt is a fantastic resource for the many challenges and gifts that come with our kiddos

Thank you so much for putting this podcast out there!! This material is such a lifeline for parents trying to navigate their differently wired kids!!! The episodes about PDA were lightbulb moments and I was able to share them with my family to help them understand my son better!! Thank you!!!

As a parent of a teenager struggling with ADHD, anxiety, and depression, this podcast had provided me with incredible insight and content in one convenient location. While not all of it is pertinent to my personal situation, I can quickly sift through it by topic to find what is. The guests are incredible, with so much information that I can later investigate. I no longer feel like I am trying to parent alone. I wish I had these resources three years ago when my daughter was first diagnosed. This is an amazing resource. Thank you Debbie from the bottom of my heart!

I have listened to over a hundred of these Differently Wired podcasts. Debbie Reber is a terrific interviewer; she asks great questions and really listens. Her guests have a wealth of information to share, and the content is conveyed in a warm and accessible manner. This is an amazing resource for teachers and parents of differently wired kids.
