In this episode, I sit down with pediatric occupational therapist Laura Petix (The OT Butterfly) to uncover what’s really going on when kids have meltdowns, get overstimulated, or shut down. Spoiler alert: it’s not about being “bad” or “defiant.” Laura explains how your child’s behavior is actuall... | 31m 33s | ||||||

Here’s what you’ll learn today: What studies reveal about how spanking and harsh discipline change the way your child’s brain proce... | 29m 21s | ||||||

| 8/4/25 | A science-based tool that helps you shift your perspective (and build your resilience) | Send us Fan Mail In this episode, we explore the idea of “shifting your lens” — a powerful metaphor grounded in science that helps parents understand how their interpretation of a situation shapes their emotional response.

| 7/7/25 | Invalidation in your relationship: Understanding the impact of dismissing emotions | Send us Fan Mail In this podcast episode, I delve into invalidation and its significant impact on romantic relationships. I highlight common invalidating statements such as "Why are you upset?", "You're overreacting," or "Calm down," explaining that these make a partner feel their emotions are wrong, unjustified, or excessive.
