ADHD, trauma, parenting, and the truth behind our kids’ behavior.
In this powerful conversation, filmmaker and author Roman Wyden opens up about his journey challenging his son’s ADHD diagnosis — and how six years of research reshaped everything he believed about childhood, behavior, and healing.
Roman shares the moment he said no to medicating his son, the deeper link between ADHD symptoms and childhood trauma, and how parents can create regulated environments that help kids feel safe, grounded, and connected.
We also explore Roman’s own childhood, the hidden wounds that shape men, and why so many fathers feel overwhelmed, reactive, or ashamed without knowing why. This episode is a guide for any man who wants to parent with more awareness, calm, and compassion.
Topics we cover:
• ADHD vs trauma
• Childhood stress and the nervous system
• Parenting without control
• Healing father wounds
• How environment shapes behavior
• Regulation inside the home
• Breathwork, presence, and connection
• Raising strong-willed boys
• Masculinity, self-worth, and leading with calm.
