The Fearless Fostering Podcast

When Your Child is Struggling Emotionally - And So Are You


Listen Later

As foster and adoptive moms, we sign up to hold space for big emotions — ours, our children’s, and often the system’s. But what happens when your child’s emotional world collides with your own? When their anxiety, anger, or attachment behaviors stir something deep within you — and suddenly you’re not sure who needs the comfort more: them, or you?

You’re not alone.

Many of the moms I work with in the Fearless Fostering community describe this season as “emotionally disorienting.” You want so badly to be your child’s safe place, but you’re also human. You have your own nervous system, your own capacity limits, and your own unresolved pain that can get triggered in the process.

Let’s talk about how to stay grounded, connected, and compassionate — for both your child and yourself — when emotions run high at home.
