In this Episode

Ever wondered why your child’s emotional outbursts seem to trigger your own? It’s time to break free from this exhaustive cycle! We’re unravelling the wisdom behind Dr. Susan David’s ‘Emotional Agility’. This episode shifts the focus from managing our children’s emotions to assisting them in emotional regulation – it’s all about creating a constructive pause or space between a child’s action and our reaction.

Let’s dive into the heart of emotional agility and explore the profound impact our emotions have on our reactions to our children’s behavior. Discover the power of validating our own feelings, reframing our limiting beliefs into facts, and the magic of engaging with our children through activities like storytelling. This journey is about empowering you to help your children feel seen, heard, and validated. Buckle up for an insightful episode that not only explores the science behind emotional agility but also equips you with practical tools to assist you on this extraordinary parenting voyage.
