Episode Synopsis

Send us a textWhen emotions run high, it’s so easy to get swept into the storm—especially when it’s your child, your teen, or even your partner who’s upset. In this episode, I talk about how to stay grounded and calm when the people around you aren’t. I’ll walk you through how co-regulation really works, how to respond instead of react, and why your calm body is one of the most powerful tools you have to teach emotional safety.These ideas don’t just apply to parenting—they work in every relationship, because emotional regulation isn’t just a skill for kids, it’s a human skill. I also created a free companion resource, The Calm Connection Sheet, to help you put this into practice. You can grab it through the link in the show notes and learn how to decode emotions, find the right words, and calm both yourself and others when feelings get big.If you'd like to get the show notes for this episode, head to: https://leighgermann.com
