It Starts With You: Parenting Beyond Fear and Shame — with Suzanne Scott
How our childhood experiences shape the way we parent isn’t always obvious — but it’s always powerful.
In this week’s episode, Katie talks with Suzanne Scott, founder of Trauma-Informed Parenting, about how childhood adversity (ACEs) can quietly influence our reactions, our patience, and even the stories we tell ourselves as parents.
Together, they unpack:
💛 What trauma really means (beyond the big events)
🧠 Why shame and fear drive so many of our responses
🌿 How pausing, breathing, and repairing can transform connection
This is a deeply grounding, hopeful conversation about starting where you are — with compassion for yourself first.
Because you can’t regulate a child if you’re running on empty.
🎧 Listen now on By Your Side.
