Today on the podcast, we're joined by Mandy Grass Behavior Analyst (BCBA), parent coach, and mom of three — for a deep, practical conversation about the real reasons behind our kids' behavior. Mandy has worked with hundreds of families and school districts to teach evidence-based strategies that help children thrive at home and in the classroom. She's also built a community of nearly 700,000 people on social media, where she shares real-life, practical tools (and a healthy dose of humor) to make parenting feel a little lighter and a lot more doable.

We talk about why kids act out, how to teach replacement behaviors, what to do when homework becomes a battle, and why consistency matters more than perfection. Mandy also shares powerful insights on ADHD, distractibility & what looks like "defiance".

If you've ever wondered how to stay calm, set boundaries, and still stay connected, this conversation is for you.
