If your child has ever thrown a tantrum…
If you’ve ever reacted, let’s say, “imperfectly” to that tantrum…
If you’ve ever wondered why your toddler or teen is having a meltdown over something seemingly inconsequential…
My friends, then this interview is a MUST LISTEN.
Ann is an incredible teacher - let’s learn about:
- The impact of childhood experiences on adult relationships and parenting
- How to protect our kids from being “wounded” in childhood and acting that out as adults!
- Why empathizing with a child’s big emotions is NOT the same thing as letting them get their way (with some super fun examples)
- How to play detective when your child has a meltdown (and how to soothe them faster than usual!)
- Why “mental health” probably isn’t even an accurate term to use
- How going outside to throw a ball against the wall might make you a better parent
- What to say to boys who still cry about frustrating events when you feel like they’re “too old” for that
- How eating plays into nervous system regulation - and believe me, this one is NOT what I expected but rather almost the opposite!
I couldn’t stop asking Ann questions, so this episode is a little longer than usual but SO worth it.
