Description

What is regulation anyway—and why does it matter for our kids (and us)?


This week we’re diving into the basics of self-regulation—what it really means to be balanced and steady, why deep breaths aren't always enough, and how our kids move from needing our help (co-regulation) to doing it on their own.


We talk about:
✨ What dysregulation actually looks like (hint: it's not always a meltdown)
How attachment plays into emotional regulation
Why one-size-fits-all solutions don’t work
And how compassion—for our kids and ourselves—is the real game-changer


Whether your child is bouncing off the walls or shutting down completely, this episode is for you. And remember, you are not alone!
