In this heartfelt and insightful episode, I dive into the essential work of teaching our kids to trust themselves, even when the world tells them otherwise. Using real-life examples, I share how traditional parenting approaches—like pushing through discomfort or faking calm—can break trust and escalate stress. Instead, I advocate for dropping the demands, honoring a child’s “no,” and embracing co-regulation as a path to healing and connection.
You’ll learn:

Why your child’s meltdowns are not your fault and how to reframe them as panic responses.
The power of honoring your child’s body cues and trusting their “no.”
How traditional ideas like “pushing through” can harm sensitive kids.
Why co-regulation is about authenticity, not forced calm.
Practical ways to stay connected to your child, even when their distress is distressing you.

This episode is a permission slip to drop the weight of perfectionism and embrace honest, boundaried, and compassionate parenting.
