Feeling stuck between diagnosis and dinner? ADHD parenting is more chaos than calm—but what if nutrition could be one of your strongest tools?
In today’s episode, I sit down with Sandrine Olmi—a Registered Nutritional Therapist, Certified Mind–Body Eating Coach, and fierce advocate for neurodivergent families—to dive deep into ADHD, nutrition, and sensory-friendly feeding.
Sandrine is not your average nutritionist. She’s a mum to an AuDHD daughter, a Nutrigenomics specialist, and the brilliant founder behind Savoir Fayre Nutrition, where she empowers anxious moms and their differently-wired kids with practical, shame-free nutrition solutions
In this episode, we unpack:
- Why mitochondrial & gut-brain health are game-changers for kids with ADHD, autism, sensory needs, and executive dysfunction
- How nutrigenomics can illuminate what's really missing in your kiddo's diet
- Simple, joyful food strategies (no kale smoothies mandated) that actually work for picky eaters, PDA profiles, and overstimulated family tables
- Real talk on self-care, meal-time overwhelm, and ditching the guilt trap of “good parent” vs. “bad eater”
If you’re desperate for clarity—like, “can food actually help ADHD symptoms?”—this is your nerdy, comforting, slightly unhinged parenting pep talk. Grab your coffee (or a glass of wine) and hit play.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
