In this week's episode, I’m diving into a challenging but relatable parenting moment—when your child has a meltdown in a public place. Whether it's at the grocery store, the park, a restaurant, or the mall, these moments can feel overwhelming and filled with pressure, especially when you're surrounded by watchful eyes and unsolicited judgment.

I’ll walk you through how to stay grounded in the midst of your child’s big emotions, how to respond with calm and confidence, and how to shift your mindset so you’re not parenting from shame or fear. You’ll also hear practical tips to help prevent public meltdowns and ways to support your child’s nervous system both during and after these difficult moments. I also share how to navigate sibling conflicts when out in public.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• How to respond to public meltdowns with calm and confidence
• Mindset shifts to let go of shame and pressure in public parenting moments
• Tips for preventing meltdowns
• How to handle common scenarios like meltdowns at the grocery store or restaurant
• What to do when siblings fight in public
• How to create a peaceful, grounding environment when you come back home that supports your child’s nervous system.

This episode will leave you ready to handle public meltdowns with calm and clarity, and build the foundation to avoid many of them altogether.
