ResponseABLE Parenting

In this episode I have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Cam Caswell, PhD, Dr. Cam is a nationally recognized adolescent psychologist, parent coach, TEDx speaker, podcast host, and founder of the Parenting Teens Academy. Affectionately known as "The Teen Translator," Dr. Cam helps frustrated but hopeful parents turn power struggles into connection and chaos into calm—without yelling, shaming, or giving up on their teen. With over 20 years of experience and a doctorate in Developmental Psychology, Dr. Cam has supported thousands of families through shutdowns, attitude, anxiety, and emotional blowups. Her practical, science-backed tools have been featured on NPR, FOX, Newsweek, and Grown & Flown. As a single mom to a teen herself, she brings both clinical expertise and personal insight to every conversation—along with humor, heart, and zero judgment. Through her Parenting Teens Academy, her popular podcast, and a highly engaged Instagram community of 347K+ parents, Dr. Cam teaches what most parenting experts don't: how to translate behavior instead of just manage it. I'm so excited to share this conversation with you.

Does it feel like you're always taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back? Maybe 2 steps is generous and it feels more like 50 steps back. This is that feeling where you've "tried everything" and nothing seems to make any difference.  In this week's podcast episode I share how we took a pretty big step backwards and how I am using my 8 step process to re-evaluate and get back on track even stronger than before.  These moments can derail us, but when we have a process to work from, we can eliminate a lot of the emotional burden and actually make meaningful progress.  Book a call with me: https://calendly.com/responseableparenting/call    🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

In this episode I have a beautiful conversation with Jenny Robinson Clark, mom of four and wife to Travis Clark, the frontman of We The Kings.  Her new children's book, Are You Here? officially launches on March 17th and offers itself as a gentle entryway to conversation with kids about what happens when a loved one passes, how to find connection in the day to day, and the signs that show us love all around. As a creative homeschool mom of four in Nashville, Jenny builds curiosity and emotional awareness into her family's routine, encouraging children to explore how feelings and connection truly work. Alongside her new book, Travis collaborated on the companion song "Are You Here."

It feels impossible to know what to do as an American mother in the early months of 2026. Nothing about this is normal. Nothing.  I do not claim to be an expert on politics. I acknowledge that as a white woman, I've inherited a level of privilege that many have not. And I do not pretend to know all the levels deep and the immense complexities others are facing on a daily basis.  And, this is a moment in history that will affect every single person. In this episode I share my views on how to support yourself so you can support your children. How you can harness your emotions and take action in alignment with your values.  My hope is that this conversation provides helpful steps to take so you are not feeling like you're stuck on the spin cycle of headlines and chaos. My hope is that you don't feel like you're floating alone in all that is unfolding. 🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

In this episode I share 2 very specific moments in my parenting that I saw how external influences changed my internal state. And how when that was triggered, it pushed me right into a predictable pattern of reactivity.  This experience showed me once again how important our internal health, sense of safety, and ability to regulate truly is because our emotional state transforms how we interact and react to the external. It can be so strong it makes us believe false realities that can keep us stuck in miserable, makes us react to false narratives false and storylines that we not only react to but end up believing and in living into. 🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

In this episode I share a story from my family of origin and how I discovered a clear and potential pattern in my own parenting. I share how easy it would be for this pattern to be how I engaged my own strong-willed kid and how easy it is to fall into this trap.  I also walk you through how we can change the pattern and empower ourselves to a deeper understanding of self, as well as learning how to own our responses vs. making it anyone else's job (including our kids) to solve, in order for us to feel better.  🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

I noticed over the break the rush to solve something I didn't like seeing with my kids. A quick conversation after being pulled into another room, a fast directive at the dinner table, etc. However, in that rush, I noticed my dysregulation didn't go away, in fact, it amplified as the guilt of not doing it the way I wanted to the first time started to creep in.  In this episode I talk about how my 4 step neural rewiring process works in specific situations. I share what each step looks like in the moment as well as how we can (once we're confidently applying it ourselves) begin to help our children through the same process.  If this is something you'd like to explore as a solution to the challenges you're facing with your own reactivity, please reach out to me. becky@responseableparenting.com 🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.
