9. Feel overwhelmed by your child’s tears? I was too...until I learned the science behind crying that changed how I parent forever.
We’ve all said it: “Stop crying.”- maybe not always in those words, but with actions.
But what if that moment - the one we’re trying to silence - is actually when the real healing begins?
In this episode, I unpack why children’s tears matter more than we think, and how our reactions shape their lifelong ability to regulate emotions, manage stress, and feel safe being themselves. I challenge one of parenting’s biggest myths -that happiness is the goal. I unpack why our obsession with stopping the crying may be quietly hurting our children’s emotional health and what to do instead.
This one’s for every parent who wants to raise emotionally strong kids and heal their own patterns along the way.
If your child’s crying triggers something deep in you -you’re not alone.
