Kids talking back, being stubborn or seemingly rude can flip a switch in us, FAST!

You’re doing your best, then BAM, you're hit with a “You’re not the boss of me!” or “Ugh, I don’t care!” and suddenly, your calm goes out the window.

If you’ve ever found yourself yelling, threatening, or feeling totally triggered when your child talks back… this video is for you.

In this episode, we’ll talk about:

✔️ Why backtalk feels so triggering—and what’s really going on under the surface

✔️ How emotional intelligence helps you pause, breathe, and respond instead of react

✔️ What your child might be trying to tell you (even if they say it with an attitude)

✔️ The ONE grounding question that can stop you from exploding

✔️ Why backtalk is actually an opportunity to strengthen emotional connection

✨ Want to go deeper?

If you’ve been stuck in reactive patterns and you’re ready to feel calm, in control, and connected again… I’ve got you!
