Join us as we embark on our summer series on parenting with Jody, a licensed therapist and dear friend. We tackle the often overwhelming shift into summer schedules, discussing how to turn the chaos of changing routines and increased family time into a harmonious balance of structure and spontaneity. Jody shares her expert advice on preparing for these transitions, creating supportive routines, and embracing the adventurous spirit of summer days.

 Jody dives deep into emotional regulation, teaching us how to recognize, name, and understand our feelings to manage them better. We learn how not to label emotions as 'good' or 'bad' and gain practical strategies for dealing with uncomfortable emotions. By demonstrating emotional regulation ourselves, we can create a healthier emotional environment for our children, guiding them through their own emotional challenges with compassion and insight.

Parenting teenagers comes with its own set of unique challenges, and Jody provides invaluable tips on effective communication and setting boundaries while maintaining a loving relationship. From managing children's anger to overcoming mom guilt and shame, we explore strategies to foster emotional strength and understanding within our families. Tune in for a rich conversation filled with expert guidance and practical tips to help you navigate the joys and challenges of parenting.
