ResponseABLE Parenting

In this episode, I share a really scary situation that's currently ongoing inside my business on top of all the other run of the mill life triggers when you're the parent of an ADHD kid. I share how that impacts my internal state and what that is doing to my regulation abilities. Additionally I walk myself through my 4 step process as if I were a client myself :) and share a few behind the scnes tricks I use to stay regulated and moving forward in the face of uncontrollable external stress.

It feels impossible to know what to do as an American mother in the early months of 2026. Nothing about this is normal. Nothing. 
I do not claim to be an expert on politics. I acknowledge that as a white woman, I've inherited a level of privilege that many have not. And I do not pretend to know all the levels deep and the immense complexities others are facing on a daily basis. 
And, this is a moment in history that will affect every single person.
In this episode I share my views on how to support yourself so you can support your children. How you can harness your emotions and take action in alignment with your values. 
My hope is that this conversation provides helpful steps to take so you are not feeling like you're stuck on the spin cycle of headlines and chaos. My hope is that you don't feel like you're floating alone in all that is unfolding.

In this episode I share 2 very specific moments in my parenting that I saw how external influences changed my internal state. And how when that was triggered, it pushed me right into a predictable pattern of reactivity. 
This experience showed me once again how important our internal health, sense of safety, and ability to regulate truly is because our emotional state transforms how we interact and react to the external. It can be so strong it makes us believe false realities that can keep us stuck in miserable, makes us react to false narratives false and storylines that we not only react to but end up believing and in living into.
