A disagreement over a crepe shouldn't be enough to unravel an entire afternoon, but most parents know exactly how quickly small moments can become big ones. In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Daniel Siegel explains what is actually happening in our brains when we lose our cool, why our reactions are often tied to experiences from years earlier, and how understanding the mind can transform the way we parent, connect, and grow. We talk about resilience, adolescence, attachment, play, emotional regulation, and the surprising truth that our brains can continue changing throughout our lives. Full of practical wisdom and memorable stories, this episode will help you understand yourself, your children, and the relationships that matter most.
