Ever feel like your kid completely overreacts to the smallest things?

The wrong cup. A “no.” A sock seam.

And you’re left thinking… what is going on?

In this episode, Lisa introduces a powerful concept that will completely change how you see your kid’s behavior: the tolerance tank.

Your kid isn’t being manipulative or dramatic—they’re running out of emotional capacity.

Once you understand this, everything shifts. You’ll learn how to read what’s really going on, respond with calm leadership, and start building your kid’s ability to handle frustration over time.

What You'll Learn:

• Why big reactions are a capacity problem, not a behavior problem
• What the “tolerance tank” is and why strong-willed kids have smaller ones
• How to spot when your kid’s tank is running low (before the meltdown)
• The 3-step framework: Read the tank, Fill the tank, Don’t drain the tank
• Why your reaction in the moment can either escalate or regulate your kid
• Simple, practical ways to build your kid’s emotional capacity over time
