đ Behind Every Tantrum: What Your Childâs Brain Is Telling You
Have you ever stood in the middle of your childâs meltdown wondering, âWhat am I doing wrong?â Youâre not aloneâand youâre not failing.
In this powerful episode, I break down whatâs really happening inside your childâs brain when emotions run high, and why those tantrums are often cries for connectionânot defiance. Through the lens of brain science and lived experience as a solo mum to twin boys with developmental delays, Iâll walk you through the 4 key steps that have helped me regulate not just my childrenâs emotionsâbut my own.
Youâll learn:
The brain science behind emotional outbursts (and why logic wonât work mid-meltdown)
How to stay grounded as a mum when your child is losing control
Simple co-regulation tools like breathing and respectful choices that actually work
Why emotional processing starts with youâand how to model it in real time
This episode is a heartfelt reminder that behind every emotional storm is a child searching for safetyâand you have the power to be their calm in the chaos.
