In this episode, Lauren answers listener questions. She’s chosen from a selection of questions sent in by listeners and through her social media channels. 

Today's Questions:

• How to stop the meltdown before it happens?
• What is causing the emotion and the function of the behavior?
• When do you give up control?

These questions lead to discussions on the zones of regulations, the 5 needs all humans have, communication, and how to give up control.
