Hi Mamas, 🚧Grab my FREE Boundaries Made Simple guide here!! 🚧 Parenting is full of unpredictable moments… meltdowns, defiance, and big emotions. But how we respond in those moments makes all the difference. This week’s episode is all about shifting from reaction to regulation—because when we meet chaos with calm, we teach our kids emotional resilience. We’re breaking down one of my favorite quotes from L.R. Knost: ✨ “When our little people get overwhelmed by big emotions, it is our job to share our calm, not join their chaos.” ✨ Here’s what you’ll learn: ✔️ The #1 mistake parents make when handling big emotions (and how to fix it) ✔️ How to pause, regulate your own frustration, and set the tone for your child ✔️ Why validating emotions (instead of shutting them down) helps kids calm faster ✔️ How modeling emotional control teaches kids how to self-regulate 💖 My challenge for you this week mamas is: Practice one moment of calm when your child is overwhelmed. Instead of reacting, pause… breathe… and choose to be the calm in their storm. Then, reflect on how it changed the moment. Did they calm down faster? Did you feel more in control? Pay attention to the shift. 🔹 And get ready, because this week, we’re bringing in Kirk Martin from the Calm Parenting Podcast for a 3-part series on how to: ✨ Handle kids who don’t listen—without power struggles ✨ Get kids to take responsibility—without constant nagging ✨ Set boundaries and actually get cooperation—without yelling This is a series you won’t want to miss! I'd love to here what you learn from this challenge!
