SEPTEMBER 1-6 • FREE ONLINE PARENTING SUMMIT

Why Is My Child Acting This Way?

Helping You Understand Your Child... So You Can Enjoy Parenting Again.

Stop Guessing.♥Start Understanding.

I see you, and I’ve got you!

Your child’s behavior, focus & physical symptoms don’t fully make sense — and nothing you’ve tried has worked consistently.

You feel like...

Something is wrong, and it's only getting worse.

I must not be parenting the right way.

This is just going to keep getting harder.

My child will never be able to take care of themselves.

Overwhelmed parent

You’ve been getting partial answers from different places (school, therapy, pediatric visits), but no one has helped you see the full picture.

That’s why I created this summit especially for you.

By the end of the summit, you will know:

What’s actually driving your child’s struggles and how behavior, attention & health are connected

Physician-guided tips & strategies to address your child’s biggest challenges & their underlying causes

What steps to take next, without feeling overwhelmed by the changes

Meet Your Host

Hi! I’m Dr. Rachel McConnell, a board-certified pediatrician — and a mom who understands what it feels like when something just seems “off” with your child, but no one can give you a clear answer.

I get it, because I WAS you — navigating focus and emotional challenges that didn’t meet diagnostic criteria, yet still affected daily life. It can leave parents feeling uncertain, dismissed, or stuck in a “wait and see” cycle.

That’s why I’m passionate about helping families look deeper. Because even when something isn’t diagnosable, it’s still worth understanding — and you and your child still deserve support.
