What to Do When Your Child Is Upset and Won’t Tell You Why – 205 Jul 12, 2022

Show notes

Most parents assume the absolute worst when their kids are upset and won't share why. Their brains automatically make up the craziest stories about what might be going on. They also tend to take things personally, get defensive, and act in ways that reinforce their child's belief that it’s better to keep things to themselves when they’re upset. Tune in for this episode to learn how to respond to your kids when they won't talk with you about why they're upset. Get full show notes at www.lessdramamoremama.com/205

Children and Choices – 204 Jul 05, 2022

Show notes

This episode was inspired by several factors that all seemed to converge at once: the Fourth of July, the Roe v Wade decision last week, and a session with one of my newest clients. All had themes of freedom, independence, and choice. And those three things make a huge impact on your relationship with your kids. Tune into today's episode to learn more about the importance of encouraging your child to make decisions and tips on how to do it.

Helping Kids Adjust to Change – 198 May 24, 2022

Show notes

From small transitions, like waking up in the morning, to bigger ones like going back and forth between two parents' homes, kids deal with lots of changes every day. While change can be difficult for adults, it can be even more stressful for kids because they haven't yet developed the cognitive, emotional, and executive functioning skills required to handle it. Even though we often resist it, change is inevitable. Tune into this episode and find out how you can help your kids learn the skills needed to get through it, and maybe even embrace it. www.lessdramamoremama.com/198

7 Signs of Good Mental Health – 196 May 10, 2022

Show notes

Did you know May is Mental Health Awareness Month? I think it’s great that we have an entire month dedicated to mental health, but it seems like most of the conversations focus on mental illness. And while that's definitely a crucial part of the conversation, it’s not the whole picture. No one really talks about what good mental health means or how to cultivate it. Good mental health isn’t simply the absence of mental illness, and it isn’t feeling happy all the time. So what is it? And how can we tell if we have it? Join me for this episode, where I answer these questions and more. www.lessdramamoremama.com/196
