We had a really vulnerable conversation here, and we talked about a lot of different things and what that journey to motherhood looked like for me, what the messy middle looked like when I was navigating miscarriages and challenges in getting pregnant. And I'm so grateful for Becca for having these conversations so vulnerably with so many humans and hope that this feels as validating as it did for me and really would've in those seasons before I was able to enter into motherhood.

As parents—especially when raising neurodivergent, gifted, or twice-exceptional learners—we are on the frontlines of navigating intense emotions every day. In the latest episode of the podcast, we dive deep into practical strategies for supporting kids' emotional health and building regulation skills that last a lifetime. Key Takeaways: Connection Over Correction: Before jumping into discipline, prioritize building strong, trust-based connections with your kids. A safe and validating environment empowers children to openly share feelings and seek help when things get tough. Normalize Emotions—For Kids and Adults: Regularly talk about emotions in your home, openly share your feelings (the ups and the downs!), and model healthy regulation techniques like deep breathing or taking breaks. Kids learn through what we do, not just what we say. Use Tools and Creative Outlets: Create “calm down” spaces, use feelings charts or check-ins, and encourage creative activities—like doodling or building with Legos—as healthy ways for kids to process and express big feelings. Progress in emotional regulation isn't linear—it's all about small wins and ongoing growth for both our kids and ourselves. If you're supporting kids who feel big, intense emotions, know that you aren't alone, and the work you're doing is foundational for lifelong success. Need more resources and encouragement? There are so many tools, from printable feeling charts to recommended books and calming activities, available online. Check out booklists for emotional intensity, anxiety, and anger in kids; explore the “zones of regulation”; and, most importantly, find a likeminded community for support. Your family isn't alone, and together, we can raise lifelong learners—and emotionally healthy humans—one regulated breath at a time. Keep an eye out for new courses and coaching programs, perfect for your family. Stay tuned for more information by joining our newsletter if you haven't already—it's the best way to ensure you're up-to-date with the latest resources and support.   Get the Book For a deeper dive into these transformative concepts, don't forget to grab my new book, The Homeschool Advantage, where you can explore chapter six and beyond.

It's something I did not grow up with. It's something that often feels uncomfortable for me. I find myself often having more questions than answers, where I don't know how to respond to this thing that my child just said and I need resources and support on it. And Melissa is my very first place I turn for that and has been for such a long time. I followed them on Instagram for years and it was so nice to get to sit down and ask these questions and dive into this with them.

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and in this episode I got to hang out with Rach and chat about why kids swear and how to handle it without shame. I am obsessed with this topic because there's so much nuance to it. I had seen a post on social media recently, and it was so black and white about it. As with a lot of things on social media, I wanted to dive into the nuance of what did you grow up experiencing? What's your culture around this and what are you afraid of? I'm not a human that you like meet and I'm like, oh my gosh, let's talk about the weather. I'm a human that you meet and I'm like, let's talk about your deepest fears. And so that is what we got to kinda dive into here, as well as how to respond to our kids, how to raise children who are gonna have the social skills to thrive and know what it looks like to be out in the world, communicating with others, not knowing what their cultural context is gonna be around different verbiage.

As a thought leader, influencer, and sought -after speaker, Neha's work is shifting the narrative around stay -at -home motherhood, empowering women to find confidence and purpose in their parenting journey. Her book, The Power Pause: How To Plan A Career Break After Kids - And Come Back Stronger Than Ever offers powerful insights for those navigating career pauses and identity shifts.

It's not you work 40 plus hours a week or you stay at home. It's not this or that or forever and always. It's really looking at what's feasible in this season, what feels right in this season. And I have passed this book along to so many humans in my life who are finding themselves in that black and white and really looking for the gray. This is not just for folks who want to be a stay -at -home parent and leave the workforce or have been a stay -at -home parent and want to re -enter the workforce. It's for anyone who's a parent because it opens up our mind to so many things that we might have shoulds or should nots built in and biases around.

When your child is having a hard time handling their big emotions, I know that you want nothing more than to help them. You see their frustration, their sadness, their overwhelm—but you're not always sure what to say or how to guide them through it. The truth is, kids don't automatically know how to regulate emotions. Emotional intelligence is a skill that must be taught, modeled, and reinforced with faith. In today's episode, we'll cover: ✅ The difference between suppressing emotions vs. managing them biblically. ✅ Practical ways to help kids name, express, and process their feelings. ✅ Bible verses to use when teaching emotional regulation. Your child isn't trying to be difficult—they're trying to communicate a need. Let's walk through how we can give them the tools to navigate emotions in a way that reflects both self-control and faith.

You're listening to Voices of Your Village and today I get to hang out with Nancy Reddy. She's the author of The Good Mother Myth. Her previous books include the poetry collections Pocket Universe and Double Jinx, a winner of the National Poetry Series. I think we need to be screaming this from the rooftops that when we're trying to be a good mom, it actually leads to bad mental health and that there isn't this spot where we're like, okay, check, we're a great mom now. We're going to drop the ball and we're going to make mistakes. And what it means for us as individuals to feel like we're doing enough and being enough is so personalized. I loved this breakdown with Rach after where we got to dive into what this looks like in everyday life for us and how it shows up personally. I'm super stoked to share this episode with you. I think it's a message that so many of us need on repeat.

The best teachers don't just teach—they nurture, empower, and create safe spaces for kids to thrive. In this 1-Year Anniversary episode, I reconnect with my 3rd-grade teacher, Mrs. Serres, to talk about what it really means to see and support a child beyond the classroom. What may look like a “bad student” on the surface is often just a child who needs to feel seen, heard, and supported, and Mrs. Serres has a gift for making kids feel safe, valued, and capable of anything. Together, we explore the emotional side of teaching, the importance of intentionally fostering happiness and emotional resilience, and why helping kids trust their intuition is one of the greatest gifts we can give.

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and today I am hanging out with our very own Rachel Lounder. We got to chat about what it was like for her receiving stage four cancer diagnosis when Nora was just about to turn two, and parenting through it, and even now today, seven and a half years later, eight years later, what it looks like and how it shows up for her. If you know anyone who has received a cancer diagnosis, if you have received a cancer diagnosis, I hope this is helpful. We talk about things that were helpful for her, things that weren't helpful for her, and how her journey on the emotional side of this has ebbed and flowed and evolved. I'm so grateful that Rach is now cancer -free and count every day as a blessing that we get to have her. She is also the co -author of my upcoming book, Big Kids, Bigger Feelings, publishing in September. I'm so excited to get to do life with her and to share this conversation with y 'all.

Over the years, so many of my clients and students have told me that two of the biggest obstacles preventing them from sitting down to tap are having too many issues so that they don't know where to start, and the fear that their emotions will be too big to handle when tapping. It makes total sense that these obstacles make it hard for us to tap because they are both rooted in our subconscious mind's wish to keep us safe. When it comes to having too many issues, the subconscious mind is worried about us wasting time. It is concerned that we are going to pick the wrong issues or an issue that will not make a big difference. Even though we tap, we aren't doing it in the most useful way. So, in order not to waste our time, we get around to tapping at all. Where being overwhelmed with emotions is concerned, the subconscious is just trying to keep us safe. It knows how deeply we can feel emotions and it doesn't want to feel the pain of being SUPER emotional. This week in the podcast, I share a simple way for you to overcome both of these issues so that you can tap in the most useful way and allow healing and transformation to happen. The process is called the Container Process. Listen to the podcast to learn the process, when it is best used, and follow along with my demonstration. You don't even have to memorise the process, just follow along and tap as I do all the heavy lifting. This is a process every tapper should know. Support the podcast!

You're listening to Voices of Your Village. And today I get to hang out with Stefanie Hohl, who has a master's in education and has been teaching children to read for years. She holds advanced degrees in both children's literature and early education, and she has experience running preschool, homeschool, and local storytime programs. Stefanie developed the ABC: See, Hear, Do, Learn to Read method to make early reading fun and easy for kids and their parents. Stefanie lives in Pittsburgh with her husband, five children, and two very silly dogs. I really enjoyed this conversation because I don't know a lot about teaching kids to read. And I do know that what doesn't feel good for me is being like, sit down, do this worksheet. I know that my son who loves movement doesn't retain information this way. So I was really excited to learn from Stefanie and have personally purchased some of her materials because I'm really enjoying them. I love how she incorporates movement with reading. And I feel like I just get the best bang for my buck in terms of the time spent with my tiny human working on these skills.

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and today I get to hang out with Kate Hamilton. She is married to Charlie since 2000 and is a mother of two young adult men who are independent, confident, and productive college students. Some might say she's an unlikely writer because of her dyslexia, yet her life experiences compelled her to write The Imperfect Parent: A Nonjudgmental Guide to Raising Children in the Modern World. She earned an MBA in international business and is a former corporate executive turned mother and entrepreneur. When Kate is not coaching parents and their children, you'll find her volunteering with Lemonade Day, a youth entrepreneur program, planning the next family adventure, or working with Charlie in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It was fun to chat with Kate because we know that perfection is not the goal. I also really enjoyed this breakdown with Rach, and you get to hear some of my real -time takeaways where Rach was helping me understand some guilt that I've been experiencing as a parent and really diving into like what's coming up for me there. I also just always feel so seen in how Rach responds to me in the moment. So I hope you enjoy the breakdown of this bad boy as well.
