But what if YOU'RE the dysregulated one?

Reader,

A few years ago, some friends and I gathered our colleagues to create an event to remind parents what's possible even in the hardest moments.

You know those days when it feels endless.

When your child won't "stop."
Your patience is gone.
You seriously need a break.

It's the moment when we start questioning:

What am I doing wrong?
Why can't my kids control their impulses?
Why don't they stop and think before they act?

It's so easy to fall into that mind trap.

👉🏻 Coach and author, Sarah MacLaughlin, and the lovely Amy Bryant, therapist and founder of Wild Child Counseling and Parenting Beyond Punishment, share some powerful reminders on reclaiming our peace in this short video.

What expectations of behavior do you have for your kids?
Is it possible there's a gap in your expectations and their ability?

Sarah reminds us that we're not “thinking creatures who sometimes have feelings" but we are "emotional creatures who can sometimes think."

What does that mean for our guidance as parents? We need to know:

What's realistic for our kids' brains at each stage.
How to stay steady when big emotions spill over.
What it takes to let go of control.

✔️ Watch this short video clip with two of my favorite OG leaders in conscious parenting to learn what's possible when our brains flip their lid.

Aaaaand please, please remember, it's about being conscious, not perfect!

Warmly,
