Parenting Reflections: How I Navigated a Sibling Struggle on the Way to School—And the Game-Changing “Reset” Shift That Turned It Around

It was one of those mornings—the kind where sibling arguments escalate, patience runs thin, and you’re stuck in the moment with no easy way out. On a walk to school, tensions were high between my boys, and I’ll be honest—I didn’t handle it well at first. But then, I made an intentional shift, one that changed everything. And here’s the thing: these shifts can’t just be surface-level fixes; they have to come from a deeper place.

In this episode, I’m sharing exactly what happened on that tough walk to school—what I got wrong, what I realized in the heat of the moment, and the shift that turned things around. We’ll talk about how easy it is to get stuck seeing only part of the sibling dynamic and why taking a step back can make all the difference.

If you’ve ever felt stuck in the middle of sibling conflicts, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about how to handle these tough moments in a way that brings more understanding, strengthens your connection, and helps everyone feel heard.
