Real Ways to Stay Regulated When Parenting Feels Overwhelming w/ Dr. Elisha Goldstein
About this episode
Aliza Pressman discusses practical strategies with Dr. Elisha Goldstein to help parents manage overwhelm and improve self-regulation.
In today’s episode I sit down with Dr. Elisha Goldstein to explore how small, practical shifts can help us break out of the constant overwhelm so many parents are living in. We talk about why knowing what to do isn’t the same as actually doing it, how chronic low-grade stress impacts the way we show up with our kids, and why self-regulation is one of the most important skills we can model. We discuss simple, in-the-moment tools to interrupt reactive patterns, calm the nervous system, and move from reacting to responding, as well as how these “tiny shifts” can improve not just our parenting, but our overall health and well-being.
