Your kid spills juice. You snap. You feel terrible. Sound familiar?
In this episode, I break down why losing your temper isn't a parenting failure. It's a nervous system response. You'll learn what's actually happening in your body when your kids push your buttons, why you can't access patience when you're in survival mode, and why gentle parenting scripts don't work if your body is flooded with stress.
I'm sharing what nearly nine years of worldschooling with three kids has taught me about regulation, plus the exact practice I use when I feel myself about to lose it. Because your children don't need you to be perfect. They need you to be regulated.
If you've ever said something you regret to your kids and wondered why you can't just stay calm, this episode will change how you understand yourself as a parent.
