Fall is a season of fresh starts — but also one of the hardest times of year for life transitions. Kids head back to school, young adults leave for college or step into their first jobs, workplaces push toward year-end goals, and families juggle new routines. These transitions don’t just feel unsettling — they truly are hard. In this episode of Think Differently, Dr. Theresa Haskins unpacks the psychology of life transitions: what happens in our brains when routines shift, why these changes hit autistic and ADHD individuals especially hard, and how pausing, reframing, and the right kind of support can turn chaos into clarity.
