This week, we’re doing something a little different—and a little special. Life in the Kirkbride home has been full of ups and downs lately… a big family vacation, the heartbreaking loss of my beloved brother-in-law, and the joy of our son’s wedding—all in just two weeks. And now, I’ve lost my voice completely.

But instead of skipping this week, we’re pulling together as a family—because I didn’t want to miss the chance to send encouragement your way. You’ll even hear a sweet intro from my 10-year-old son, Bennett, who’s helping me kick off this special episode.

We’re revisiting one of your favorites: “Emotional Dysregulation in Kids: 10 Effective Strategies to Help Your Child Calm Down.”

In this replay, we’ll explore:

  • What emotional dysregulation really is—and why it’s not just defiance
  • The science behind emotional overwhelm and meltdowns
  • 10 practical strategies to help your child calm down in the moment
  • Proactive steps to reduce emotional blow-ups before they start
  • How to rebuild connection after a hard moment

If things have felt heavy or emotionally intense in your home lately… we hope this episode gives you the tools—and the encouragement—you need to breathe, reset, and keep going.
