307: 5 Things Parents Shouldn't Say to Kids with OCD or Anxiety
As parents, understanding what’s really going on beneath our child’s anxiety or OCD is one of the most important things we can do to support them. When they're dysregulated, the things we tell them are more than just words—they can either comfort and guide or shame and overwhelm them. In those heightened moments, anxious or intrusive thoughts can take over, and our children look to us to help them feel safe, grounded, and understood.That’s why it's so important to be mindful of how we respond. Let me share five things parents should avoid saying to kids with OCD or anxiety and what to say instead to truly support their regulation, confidence, and emotional growth.Not sure where to start?

303: Why We Need to Rethink ‘Bad Behavior’ as Nervous System Dysregulation
Children's behaviors are often viewed through a lens of judgment—disobedient, defiant, or disrespectful—leading to quick conclusions and punishments. However, this perspective doesn’t tell the whole story. More often than not, these behaviors are signs of deeper emotional or neurological struggles, not intentional misbehavior. By reframing how we view behavior, we open the door to greater connection and understanding with our children. Let’s explore why we need to rethink "bad behavior" and how understanding its roots can transform how we respond, creating opportunities for healing, growth, and deeper emotional connections.Not sure where to start?
