Case Study: Managing Emotions

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

Have you ever found yourself struggling to manage the needs of your children, especially when they are of different ages and require different levels of attention? Parenting can sometimes feel like a never-ending challenge, and it's not always easy to stay calm and connected with your kids, especially when you're feeling overwhelmed. Recently, I had the pleasure of sitting down with Christina, one of my Instagram followers, to discuss this very topic. Christina had a great question that I'm sure many of us can relate to: How can we regulate our emotions and stay connected with our children, even when we're feeling triggered? In this conversation, we delve into the challenges of self-regulation, dealing with sibling rivalry, and navigating bedtime battles. We share personal stories, insights, and practical tips to help you navigate the ups and downs of parenthood.
