  • 63: Why Does Your HSC HATE the Surprise Gift You Got Them?

    In today's episode, we talk about what’s worse: surprising your kid with a gift that they hate, but they pretend to love? Or surprising them with a gift you know they LOVE, but suddenly, they hate it? Let me tell you a story. Our family recently adopted a puppy. My kid loves animals and we knew that she wanted a puppy. We knew there would be hyperactivity, lots of licking, jumping around, chewing on stuff, etc. So when we brought it home, I started thinking about how HSCs who are stuck in the meltdown cycle might react to this much sensory overload. Would fear overshadow excitement? Suck up the joy completely before anyone knew what happened? If your child is missing the skills to regulate their emotions and you are walking on eggshells around their explosions, the meltdowns would take the lead here. So, what do you do if your HSC can’t handle surprises? Tune in to find out.

  • 61: Strong Willed and Disrespect: When to Draw the Line

    When you’re the parent of a Highly Sensitive child, it’s hard to know where to draw the line on some things: Is your kid disrespectful? Or does their attitude come from their “strong willed” personality? I can actually solve this one for you, very quickly. Your HSC doesn’t have a respect problem. Now that we’ve established that, why is your HSC so headstrong? And how do you manage it? First off, accepting that your kid is “strong-willed” or “spirited” doesn’t solve anything. One author’s book with bullet points on how to manage your kid’s stubbornness doesn’t address the root of this problem, which, if left unaddressed, can lead to chronic suicidal or self-harmful behavior. The root of this problem is grown from the meltdown cycle. Not from the desire to be difficult. So, what is the solution here? Tune into this episode to find out.

  • 59: Rewriting Our Family’s Story: Savannah & Alan

    In this episode, you can hear Savannah and Alan's story. If it feels like your HSC is down in the dumps more than the average kid, you’ll want to hear this. You are not alone. Our client Savannah knows exactly how that feels, and that feeling was HARD to work through. Savannah’s story is common for parents who are stuck in the meltdown cycle. She wanted to be a mom for such a long time, and the fact that her child seemed melancholy SO often was disheartening. She describes her HSC as feeling upset and on edge constantly, crying often, and even stated that there was a lack of connection. She felt like no matter how much her and Alan tried, they could not meet their HSC’s needs. She also felt like she could not help her child in the midst of a meltdown. And that was really discouraging.

    In Savannah’s words, “I felt helpless. I was failing myself and my daughter.”

    So how did this family break out of the meltdown cycle with MTC’s help? Tune in to hear Savannah’s story.
