70% of parents struggle with emotion regulation
Are you quick to react to your child's behaviour?
Many parents weren't taught emotional regulation, leading to quick reactions, more yelling, feeling triggered by their child's behavior, and becoming overstimulated.
This creates a cycle where we feel triggered by our child, react by yelling, and then feel guilty afterward. Emotion regulation is a skill, meaning it's something we need to learn and practice.
What is a Reflective Parent?
- Recognizes their triggers in the moment and doesn’t react to them
- Is self-aware and can recognize their emotions as they arise, making it easier to manage and respond to them constructively
- Are better at understanding their impact on others, leading to more empathetic and meaningful interactions
- They are more open to feedback, seeing it as an opportunity for growth rather than criticism
- They are less likely to act impulsively and more likely to process their feelings thoughtfully
- They can navigate conflicts more effectively, as they understand their triggers and communication style
- Self-awareness fosters a sense of purpose and alignment, reducing feelings of stress and inner conflict
- With a deep understanding of their values, goals, and priorities, self-aware individuals make decisions that align with their authentic selves

What Our Members Are Saying
I have found the group to be an excellent place to talk about things you are working on that are affecting your life. The group has helped me practice the skills I need to learn to be a better mom and friend. These are things I did not learn as I was growing up. I feel like I'm becoming more socially emotionally competent. I also like that they are no prescriptions here. It's figuring out what works for you knowing that everyone's situation is a little bit different and that the answers won't be the same for everyone. That's something I really appreciate.

I’m more mindful in pausing and also more intentional with my goals/values when making decisions.There is amazing content with the audio, the worksheets, the calls, the articles, and the conversation posts. I look forward to stretches of time when I can delve into all these resources!

I love the reflection calls! It makes me feel less alone in this parenting journey. I also find it super helpful to hear from other parents that also value research too.

Meet Our Founder: From Neuroscientist to Parental Well-being Pioneer
As a neuroscientist, I spent years studying the intricacies of emotions and the emotional brain. But it wasn’t until I stepped away from academia to raise my own children that I truly understood the emotional challenges parents face.
This personal journey led me to create Curious Neuron, initially as a resource for understanding child development. However, I quickly realized a crucial truth: to support our children effectively, we must first nurture our own emotional well-being as parents.
Drawing on my scientific background, I transformed Curious Neuron into a globally recognized platform that shares the science of emotions with parents. We offer:
- Science-backed tools for emotional regulation and self-awareness
- Accessible resources for improving communication and conflict resolution
- A proactive approach to mental health, putting control in parents’ hands
Our mission is simple: to help parents create emotionally intelligent homes that reduce their stress, nurture their well-being and support their child’s emotional development.
Dr. Cindy Hovington, Ph.D. Neuroscientist, Mom of 3, Founder & CEO of Curious Neuron
- 160K+ Instagram followers
- International speaker & wellbeing consultant
- Host of top-ranked parenting podcast in CA, US, UK & AU

Frequently asked questions
How much time do I need to commit?
We know parents are busy and we don’t want to add too much on your already full plate. You are committing to 1-hour per week for our weekly calls and the rest (in terms of how often you want to join the community online) is up to you!
How do I know if this is for me?
- Do you struggle with managing your emotions?
- Have you been feeling stressed or overwhelmed lately?
- Do you have a child younger than 10?
- Do you feel like there is no one you can ask your parenting question to?
- Are you looking for ways to strengthen the quality of your relationships (through emotional intelligence skills)
If you answered yes to at least 2 of these points, then you would benefit from this membership!
Can I try it out for FREE before making a commitment to this?
Yes! Our memberships come with a 5 day FREE trial. If you give it a try and feel like this is not for you, then you cancel before the trial ends.
When you join, it will ask you for your credit card number but you can cancel before the end of the trial period in case this is not for you and your credit card will not be charged. If there are any issues, you can email us at [email protected].
What is a Weekly Reflection Call? Is it therapy?
No, these calls are not therapy. Every week, we reflect on a given topic in a live Zoom call. We chat about our experiences around this topic, our founder Dr. Cindy Hovington PhD (she is a neuroscientist that specializes in emotional health) shares her insights about the topic and helps guide you if you are struggling with this. All topics are entered around an aspect of emotional intelligence (self-awareness, emotion regulation, relationship and social skills, stress management, effective parenting skills, emotional development in children and mindfulness/self-compassion).
At the end of the call, we take 10 min to journal about our thoughts and feelings around this topic.
**If you want to join the calls to simply listen you can. You don’t have to turn your camera on either. You can join the conversation in the chat. We want you to feel comfortable.
Can I cancel my membership at any time?
Yes! You can cancel anytime. We also have various packages (monthly, quarterly, yearly) to meet your needs (i.e. if you are going through a challenging time, you might only need this for a few months).
How long will it take before I see a difference in my home?
Working on how we manage emotions takes time and practice, just like strength training does! If you join the weekly calls and take the time to implement what you learn and reflect on, you can expect to start noticing a difference around the 6-week mark. This is what our current members have noticed.
Do you prefer 1:1 coaching over a membership?
Book an intro call with our founder Cindy Hovington to get personalized support from her. (Sessions focus on building practices that support your well-being and support your child’s emotional development. Rate: $149/hr or purchase a package to get ongoing support at a lower rate)
