If you’ve ever thought, "Why does NOTHING work with my child?!"—you’re not alone. I used to think I had this whole parenting thing figured out, but then life threw me a curveball: a child with ADHD, mood disorder, big emotions, and challenging behaviors. 

And let me tell you… the traditional advice? It failed us completely. But when I made one simple shift, EVERYTHING changed. Today, I’m sharing exactly what that shift was and how you can make it too—because parenting your emotionally intense child doesn’t have to feel this hard.

In this episode, you will learn:

  • Your child’s behavior is telling you something—are you listening?
  • Why timeouts, consequences, and ‘being consistent’ may not be the answer.
  • The powerful shift that changes everything (and makes parenting easier).
  • How your response can either escalate or calm intense emotions.
  • The first step to creating a home that feels calmer and more connected.
