Braden and Shane Intro

Welcome to The DadDHD Podcast. This is where we start.

We're Shane Thrapp and Braden Young—two certified ADHD life coaches and neurodivergent dads who are tired of parenting advice that assumes everyone has a neurotypical brain. There's a massive gap between research and what actually helps you at 3 AM when your kid won't sleep and your brain won't shut up. We're here to bridge that gap.

In this episode, we introduce ourselves, explain why this podcast exists, and lay out what you can expect. We're talking practical strategies, no misinformation, no "just try harder" BS. Just real help for dads navigating ADHD, autism, and related conditions—whether that's you, your kids, or both.

We break down what each episode will cover: research news, deep dives on parenting strategies and spousal relationships, and interviews with experts who actually know their stuff. Our goal is simple—help you understand yourself better so you can help your kids better, and stop the cycle of misunderstanding and shame.

This is for dads who need resources that don't exist yet. Let's build this together.
