Hello!
I'm Dr Sam.
Mother, Pediatric Occupational Therapist & Kid at Heart
and there's nothing more I love than helping parents understand their child's sensory needs & how to confidently support them.
Being a parent of a child with sensory challenges isn't easy. Some days, it feels like you're walking on eggshells, unsure of what will set off the next meltdown.
You’re doing everything you can, but you can’t help wondering if there’s more you could do—or if you’re missing something important.
I’m Sam Goldman, an occupational therapist and your guide in this sensory journey.
I’ve spent over a decade helping parents like you understand their child’s sensory needs and find real-life strategies that actually work.
My goal? To help you feel less overwhelmed, more confident, and ready to support your child in a way that feels manageable for your family.
You’re already an amazing parent, and you know your child better than anyone. This podcast is here to give you the tools to make life just a little easier—for both of you.
Your child doesn't need "fixing"
There’s nothing “wrong” with them—it’s just that their needs don’t always match the world around them.
I believe every child deserves to feel understood and supported for who they are. With a little help, you can figure out what they need and make life feel a whole lot easier—for both of you.

From Overwhelmed to Empowered: I’ve Got You
Hi, I’m Dr. Sam Goldman. For over a decade, I’ve been helping parents like you navigate the ups and downs of sensory and feeding challenges. As a pediatric occupational therapist (and a mom myself), I understand how overwhelming it can feel when your child’s needs don’t fit the mold.
I specialize in breaking down big, confusing ideas about sensory processing and feeding struggles into bite-sized, practical tips that actually work in your busy life. My goal? To help you feel confident, less stressed, and more connected to your child, no matter where they are on their journey.
Through my courses, guides, and resources, I’ll give you the tools and support you need to meet your child’s unique needs without losing yourself in the process. Because no parent should feel like they’re doing this alone.
