In this episode, I discuss what to do when your HSC doesn't take you seriously. As a parent, it’s confusing when we are playing with our 5 year old and they say, “Mom, that’s dumb. I’m not doing that,” when yesterday, they didn’t think it was dumb at all... This also goes for helping our kids feel better. Telling them “don’t worry” worked when they were 3. But now your kid is 5… and saying “don’t worry” doesn’t work. In fact, it probably pisses them off. So what SHOULD you do when your HSC doesn’t take you seriously? Tune in the find out.

In this episode, I talk about why sending your HSC to a therapist may be putting a bandaid on the problem. The truth is, Highly Sensitive Children need much more support than weekly therapy can provide. Parents need direct strategies to make feelings talk fun and not just a thing you do when you’re talking your kid down from a ledge. And this doesn’t have to take the years that Highly Sensitive Children often spend in therapy.

It's normal to seek support from parents who have raised children before, but how do you know their parenting strategy will be effective for your kid? You've probably tried all of the traditional parenting methods anyway, so what do you do when you're being flooded with unhelpful advice, yet your kid is still the one having a meltdown at family events? You don't want to be judged by them, but you also want your kid to settle down... Tune in to hear what to do when your relatives just don't get it.

In this episode, I talk about how to spot a fake parenting coach, and why it’s incredibly important to know exactly who you’re working with.

Tune in to learn how to tell a real expert from a fake one.
