  • Resentment. We’ve all felt it.

    Very little about this parenting journey has gone according to plan.

    We’ve done the hard work- the never-ending work actually - of rewiring everything we thought we knew about behavior, what it means to be human, how to parent, and how to have a family.

    Some days we do it without a second thought.

    Some days are full of resentment and anger.

    You aren’t a bad person. But resentment feels bad!

    In this episode, you’ll learn

    The very important job that resentment does for youA message that resentment might be trying to tell youThe importance of staying curious - and not shaming - about the feeling of resentment

  • One of the harder things to navigate when shifting to a nervous system lens on behavior is the feeling that a lot of the strategies seem like they are rewarding bad behavior.

    Strategies that invite regulation, connection, and felt safety are usually strategies that feel good.

    If our kids feel good after bad behavior, will they have MORE bad behavior??

    In this episode, you’ll learn

    What it might be signaling if you’re wondering if you’re rewarding bad behaviorHow to avoid unintentionally increasing the likelihood of dysregulation in the futureWhy it’s reallllllly important to offer connection, co-regulation and felt safety strategies when you are in connection mode

  • We talk a lot about hard very too hard for your kids (thanks Amanda Diekman for that hard vs. too hard language!).

    But have you considered applying that concept to yourself?

    This is intensive parenting! Far beyond when parenting is supposed to get less intensive, you’re still giving super-hero level scaffolding, supervision and co-regulation - and it’s a LOT!

    In this episode, you’ll learn

    How to assess for when it’s just TOO hard- for YOU!The importance of making an owl-brain decision about things being too hard (or not)Ways to increase support at the same time as you lower demands for yourself

  • It’s very common to feel like our kids are either intentionally sabotaging good things or that they are purposefully setting us up to be mad or disappointed or to have to say no.

    You aren’t imagining this phenomenon!

    All humans do it, but our kids with vulnerable nervous system and big, baffling behaviors may seem like they do it more often.

    In this episode, you’ll learn

    The neuroscience behind WHY our kids sabotage situations or set us up to be dysregulatedWhat they are really doing (and it’s actually full of hope)How we might respond differently that could actually change their brain

  • It took me a looooooong time to really truly believe and understand that- no one is coming to save me.

    I had to do the hard work to take responsibility for my own triggers, my own nervous system, my own change. This only happened after oodles and oodles of safety, connection, and co-regulation.

    Maybe you, like me, have held onto the hope that someone else will fix this. Your child will change, you’ll get the services you need, something will happen and everything will get better.

    Maybe this journey through some of the intimate moments of my own healing journey can assist you on your’s.

  • How do we help kids feel safe when they are safe? How do we help them take in the safety that exists in their life when their life experiences seem to have convinced them that nothing is safe.

    Scaffolding. Yes, we can scaffold felt safety.

    My recovery from a very serious back injury left me pondering the importance of felt safety in taking risks and the necessity of scaffolding felt safety.

    In this episode, you’ll learn

    The importance of relationship in felt safetyHow even felt safety must be scaffolded for folx who don’t have a lot of experience being safe in relationshipHow amazing it is that our hurt kids risk relationship at all, and how it makes sense that sometimes they won’t

  • Play makes kids stronger. It’s necessary for their physical and emotional development, and even their academic development. Play helps kids work through and make sense of hard things.

    A few months ago I went searching for a resource that teaches parents some of skills I used as a play therapist because I am passionate about breaking down barriers and teaching these skills to as many adults as possible- not just therapists.

    Tina Payne Bryson’s newest book (co-authored with Georgie Wisen-Vincent), The Way of Play, is exactly this resource.

    It was a delight to connect with Dr. Payne Bryson and get a sneak peek into her new book, The Way of Play.

    In this episode, you’ll learn

    Why play is so importantThe 7 Strategies in PlayStrong ParentingHow to Bring Emotions to LifeHow to Make Yourself a Mirror

  • How do we not flip our lids when our kids are going bananas? It's HARD. Because dysregulation is quite literally contagious!! And if we flip our lids too then it's usually pretty hard to deescalate the situation. Offering connection, regulation, and felt-safety to our kids is a lot easier if we don't flip our lids! (Although for sure- perfection in parenting is never ever ever required and sometimes, I flip my lid, too!)

    In this episode, we will look at steps you can take- IN THE MOMENT- of a stressful parenting experience (assuming no one is in literal danger!) that will help you stay regulated (not calm!) so you can tackle the real problem. The real problem is probably your child's regulation, connection, and/or felt-safety!

  • Cues of safety, danger, or life threat come from three places- inside, outside, and between.

    In part 3 of this series on felt safety, we are exploring felt safety from between- from relationship!

    In this episode, you’ll learn

    How availability of connection is a cue of safety or dangerHow neuroception can tell the state of the other person’s nervous system (connection or protection?)Why nervous systems are contagiousHow ‘between’ cues of safety eventually become ‘inside’ cues of safetyHow you can increase your own experience of safety even when you are parenting children in stuck in chronic procession mode

  • Let’s go back to basics! Last week we talked about seeing behavior through the lens of the nervous system and then took a deep-dive into co-regulation.

    This week begins a three-part deep-dive into the foundational concept of felt safety.

    What is felt safety, what isn’t felt safety, and why it matters!

    Next we will explore the many different ways we are all neuroceiving safety (or not) from our inner world.

    In this episode, you’ll learn
