Through personal testimony and biblical truth, we're reminded that real freedom isn't found in what we have, it's found in surrendering our hearts to God.

Dr. B explains why behavior escalates, how to spot early warning signs, and what parents and teachers can do to keep kids safe, calm, and regulated — without losing their own patience.

Connection over correction, and humor as a parenting superpower.

In this insightful and practical conversation, Andryanna sits down with behaviourist and sensory specialist Dr. Bethany Bilodeau (Dr. B) to explore what's really happening underneath children/teen behaviour — and how parents can respond with clarity, confidence, and connection.Together, they unpack the powerful idea that behaviour is communication, especially when kids feel overwhelmed, unsafe, overstimulated, or dysregulated. Instead of focusing solely on discipline, this episode explores how understanding environmental factors and the nervous system can transform the way parents approach emotional outbursts, defiance, school challenges, and everyday family dynamics.Dr. B shares realistic strategies that fit into busy family life, helping parents support regulation while still holding boundaries — without guilt, shame, or unrealistic expectations.This episode is especially helpful for parents navigating stress, sports environments, school transitions, ADHD, anxiety, or emotional intensity in their children.In this episode:What “behaviour is communication” really means in real-life;How stress, sensory overload, fatigue, and emotional safety affect behaviour;The differences between defiance and dysregulation;Practical tools to help regulate kids in the momentHow to support emotional recovery and repair after conflict;Ways parents can partner with teachers and coaches more effectively;How hydration, rest, and basic physiological needs influence emotional regulation;How parents can stay grounded when their own nervous system is activated.This episode offers both perspective and actionable strategies to help parents support their children with empathy, structure, and resilience.CONNECT WITH DR.

God has selected you uniquely to be the mother for these children.  He will equip you for the work He wants you to do! Summary No one feels prepared to be a parent.  Even if you were one of the oldest of 10 kids in a Catholic family (like Alicia or Katie) or a family of 7 (like Suzanne) you can never really be ready!  The key to surviving, and even thriving, is stepping fully into your identity as a daughter of God.  All the love that we have for our spouse and children needs to come from a deep place of confident love from our Heavenly Father.  Listen in to this interview with Suzanne Bilodeau, author of She Loved: Resting in the Beauty of Motherhood, a compilation of letters from older mothers to their younger selves.  In our conversation we talk about actually NOT finding our identity in our motherhood, but in our daughterhood, how fear is a liar, and the importance of compassion for yourself.  Key Takeaways   Fear is a liar.  Satan tells you that you are not enough.  God says - I made you for this moment.  We can be transformed when we recognize that before we are a wife or mommy we are a daughter.  That is foundational. We all need to have compassion for ourselves.  This is a theme found in most of the letters written for She Loved! Don't be a martyr to your motherhood.  Take time for yourself to reconnect with God and others.
