Gentle parenting is often imagined as staying calm, speaking softly, and always keeping our cool—but that version of it just doesn’t work for highly sensitive kids. In fact, if you’ve ever tried to white-knuckle your way through frustration, you know it doesn’t help.
Have you ever considered therapy for your sensitive child, hoping it might be the key to managing their meltdowns and learning to regulate their big emotions? If so, this episode offers 5 compelling reasons to reconsider this intervention — from a play therapist & parenting specialist.
Anger is one of the trickiest emotions we deal with as parents. When our kids are angry – especially at us – it can be SO tough to stay calm and regulated and to respond in a way that feels good!
Jeanne & Josh's story depicts what it feels like to look at your own reactions, childhood, and parenting patterns. If you're carrying fear about who your child might become in five years, don’t miss this episode.
Sensitive kids don't lack empathy. They're buried under so much shame they can't reach it. If you've ever wondered whether your child is lacking empathy, listen to this before you draw any conclusions.
In this episode, I'll walk through five practical shifts that help your child learn to sit with the discomfort instead of lashing out or giving up. If power struggles and meltdowns are the pattern in your home, grab a seat and listen up.
In this episode, I walk you through three things: how to set your sensitive child up for success with screens, how to end screen time without the meltdown, and how to raise a resilient kid in a world where tech, AI, and social media never slow down.
Have you ever felt like you have tried everything to end your child's meltdowns, but nothing worked? In this episode, we talk about what changed when Mike & Mara stopped trying to manage behavior and started doing the deeper work underneath it.
In this episode, you’re going to learn why timing matters, why empathy has to be real to land, and what to do when you genuinely can't access empathy. If your kid seems to hate being validated, the reason is more useful than you think.
