In this episode of the Fearless Fostering Podcast, I’m joined by Jeff Lovelace — school psychologist, Teacher of the Year, BCBA, and creator of Monkey Minds SEL. Jeff has a gift for making emotional regulation and behavior support simple, practical, and totally doable for parents.

We talk about:

• What kids are really struggling with emotionally right now
• How to understand behavior as communication
• The #1 SEL/DBT skill he recommends for every family
• How trauma shapes behavior in foster and adoptive kids
• Why your regulation matters more than you think
• One small shift that can bring more calm into your home this week

If you’re navigating big feelings, tricky behaviors, or emotional overwhelm, this episode will help you feel steady, supported, and far less alone.
