Description
Parenting is the hardest job ever – and parenting a highly sensitive child who’s struggling can feel downright impossible.
If you’re suffering through endless meltdowns, walking on eggshells to avoid your child’s huge emotions, and losing sleep worrying that you’re failing your child, you’ve landed in the right place.
I’m Dr. Hilary Mandzik – clinical psychologist, parenting specialist, and mom of 3. And I’m here to help you feel GOOD about parenting your highly sensitive child.
Join me each week on the Raised Resilient podcast as we explore the topics parents worry about most when it comes to raising highly sensitive kids: managing meltdowns, building emotion regulation, understanding highly sensitive kids, making sense of challenging behaviors, building self-esteem, finding parenting strategies that actually work *with* your child’s sensitivity ... and everything in between.
I’ll help you understand your child’s behavior (and your reactions to it!) so that even the really hard moments make more sense. I’ll empower you with tools, strategies, and scripts to navigate those really hard moments with connection and confidence. (And I’ll remind you that no tool, strategy, or script is as powerful as your parenting ace – your relationship with your child!)
I’m passionate about parenting differently – parenting in a way that sees all kids as good, even when they’re struggling. I’m passionate about breaking unhelpful generational cycles and putting a hard stop to spanking, time outs, shaming, and yelling. I’m passionate about helping highly sensitive kids build the skills they need in order to manage their big emotions successfully ... and parents learning to regulate their own emotions alongside their children. I want to help you stop worrying about whether you’re “raising them right” and feel confident that your kids will grow up trusting themselves and feeling comfortable in their skin … because they were raised resilient.
And that’s big. Because raising our kids resilient can literally make this world a better place.
Listen, parenting is hard no matter how you do it. You won’t “enjoy every moment”, no matter what that lady at the store says. But I’m here to help you go from just barely surviving to parenting in a way that genuinely feels good, for you and your highly sensitive child.
So warm up your coffee and grab your ear buds. It’s time to turn your child’s sensitivity into their SUPERPOWER!

Recently, a thoughtful listener sent in a question about their child being unkind to a friend. Seeing kids be mean to their friends can be incredibly triggering, stirring up fears about their ability to maintain friendships in the future or even worries about them being alone. But it’s important to remember that kids are still learning. They might not have enough life experience to predict how someone will react without trying it out.
You see, sometimes kids will say things like "I hate you" out of curiosity rather than anger, just to see what happens. Instead of shaming them, or telling them not to do it again, we can instead ground ourselves in a developmental perspective. We can get curious about why a child said those words and ask questions to understand their experience.
Because here’s the thing: when we validate our highly sensitive child’s experience and emotions, they feel much more comfortable to continue talking about these experiences in the future. There is always room for compassion! And, don’t forget to check out my brand new resource: “10 Things Your Highly Sensitive Child Needs You to Know” (linked below), if you want to get even more inside the brain of your highly sensitive child.

Feeling dread when it’s after school pick-up time? If you’re a parent of a highly sensitive child, you know exactly what I mean. The meltdowns, snarky responses, and tears can feel inevitable. It’s because, as their safe attachment figure, your child feels secure enough to let out all their pent-up emotions from the day once they see you.
I recently shared an Instagram reel about this very struggle, and it hit home for so many parents. Highly sensitive kids often get stuck in a dysregulation cycle, where they’re overwhelmed and end up releasing all those big emotions right after school.
In this episode, you’ll hear 3 tips that are tried and true for preparing for and managing school pickup with your highly sensitive child. These strategies can make this transition smoother for both you and your child, turning after-school dread into a more manageable part of your day.

In this episode, we dive deep into three shame-inducing thoughts that many parents of highly sensitive children experience. Drawing from my program and countless conversations with parents, I share the common worries and fears expressed by those seeking support.
It’s true, many of us didn't have our emotional needs met as children, leaving us unsure of how to help our own kids regulate their emotions. This can lead to feelings of loneliness and the misconception that we're the only ones struggling with these dark thoughts. I discuss the three main thoughts I frequently hear during initial calls with prospective clients and how these thoughts often make parents feel like they're held hostage by their child's emotions.
You see, here’s the thing: this does not have to be your reality. This episode will show you that you are not alone. I've been there too, and I know that resilience and healthy communication skills can transform your family dynamics. And if you are struggling and this sounds like you - book a free call.

Did you ever realize that your child's high sensitivity might be a mirror reflecting your own? In this episode, I take you on a personal journey back to my own childhood, where I grappled with being highly sensitive, often feeling overwhelmed by emotions and retreating to my room to cry when things felt too intense.
I share the shame and isolation I felt growing up, feeling too much and too deeply, and how these experiences initially left me confused and easily hurt. It wasn't until I became a parent to a highly sensitive child that I began to truly understand and appreciate the depth of my own feelings.
In this episode, we'll explore how recognizing your own sensitivity can illuminate your parenting path and deepen your connection with your child. Here’s the thing: it’s important to recognize sensitivity not as a burden, but as a superpower. I’ll let you in on a secret – when we recognize sensitivity as a superpower, we can pay more attention to how we respond to big feelings, which equals a more nurturing and supportive family environment.

Do you feel like all the parenting responsibilities just automatically end up on your plate? You're not alone. In this episode, I dive into my own journey as the 'default parent,' a role I slipped into almost without noticing when we had our first child. As I stayed home and stepped away from my career, I found myself managing everything from night feedings to daily outings, never having a moment to myself.
I quickly became overwhelmed and exhausted with the weight of parenting on my shoulders. I even felt resentful towards my husband. But, this one realization allowed me to recognize that it wasn’t either of our faults, and there was a way to shift the dynamic.
Here’s the thing: You can continue silently bearing the weight of parenting for both partners. Or, you can begin to shift and make lasting changes. Addressing the default parent syndrome earlier can transform your relationship with your partner, and enhance family life for everyone involved.

Have you ever considered therapy for your highly sensitive child, hoping it might be the key to managing their meltdowns and aggressive behaviors at home? If so, this episode offers a different point of view along with 5 reasons that may change your mind.
As a former play therapist and owner of a private practice, I've worked with many highly sensitive children who behaved picture perfect during sessions. And yet, the stories I'd hear from their parents painted a very different picture, one filled with emotional outbursts and challenges. This led me to a crucial realization about therapy and highly sensitive children.
Here’s the bottom line: traditional child therapy might not be the best approach for highly sensitive kids. Why? It all comes down to the parent-child relationship. Tune in to this week’s episode to hear my opinion on the best route of intervention, and why being your child’s safe figure can help set your child up for long-term success.
