104. Threats on a road trip
On a 5 hour road trip my boys started fighting over the most benign thing…a book. I share the annoying details, the default patterns we fell into when we hit our breaking point, and ultimately what I did to recover the moment. It highlighted for me just how important it is to have regulation practices built into the day. How they cannot be back burner, “if I can get to it today” actions. These moments in parenting show us our tolerance level. And we are only as effective as we are regulated. Knowing that everything is tied to the nervous system it’s crucial we adopt nervous system regulation practices as parents. It’s the way through the tough moments. If you haven’t already joined, head over to Fast Way To Regulate (just below) and dive in. You’ll get a masterclass in regulation practices and be able to read your patterns faster and faster as you begin to embody regulation practices into your life. GET REGULATED!

103. The reason it’s not working
In this episode I share more about that really frustrating cycle of trying something to break a negative cycle, it not going well, and then how we can often compare our journey to others - which creates more shame, self judgement, and tends to further solidify the negative pattern we’re trying to get rid of in the first place. But don’t worry, I don’t leave you in that :) I also share how to change that. I offer a lot of mindset shifts and tools to start using in order to creat real, meaningful, but most importantly AUTHENTIC change in your parenting. GET REGULATED! Inside the 30 Day Challenge FAST WAY TO REGULATE you will uncover the exact point (and reason why) you lose your cool, so that you can put a regulation tool in front of it and maintain your calm even in the toughest moments.

We come to parenting with all the patterns we learned in our own childhood. Together in this podcast, we uncover the roots of our reactivity and grow in education, capacity, awareness, and skills so we will be able to respond vs. react to our strong-willed children. The beauty of this process is as you become a ResponseAble Parent, the “misbehavior” of your children will lessen, the yelling will fall away and a new level of companionship and cooperation will take its place. Welcome to the journey of ResponseAble Parenting. Take a deep breath in, slow exhale out, and let’s get to work.
