It can also bring moments of exhaustion, uncertainty, and the quiet pressure to keep performing at a high level in every area of life.In this conversation, I sit down with physician and neuroscientist Dr. Yolanda Bogaert, who shares the grounded practices and perspective shifts that helped her move from relentless striving toward greater presence, calm, and joy.Yolanda speaks candidly about her own journey through perfectionism, burnout, motherhood, and raising an autistic son. She also offers simple, practical ways to regulate your nervous system, reconnect with what matters most, and find moments of joy even on the hardest days.Because parenting an autistic child does not require perfection.It requires presence, compassion, and small practices that help you come back to yourself again and again.In this episode you will learn: • Why high-achieving moms can feel intense pressure while parenting an autistic child • How perfectionism and constant striving contribute to burnout and emotional exhaustion • Why nervous system regulation is essential for both parents and autistic children • The concept of “detached attachment” and how letting go of outcomes can create more peace • Small grounding practices that help you reset during stressful moments • How simple rituals and moments of “micro-joy” can transform the parenting experience • Why living the questions instead of chasing perfect answers can lead to deeper joyResources & MentionsConnect with Dr. Yolanda BogaertWebsite - https://www.yolandabogaertmd.comHigh Achieving Moms of Autistic Kids CommunityFacebook Group - https://www.facebook.com/groups/highachievingmomsofautistickidsStay ConnectedInstagram -...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/C9kXVWyNckiGFOFnMhi02KUTaGMuP1crCKgMqp2SHYw/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9lOTc5/NDQwOGQ4MzIzYjAx/MWIxYmFiMDBkYjZk/MWNiYy5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
