Headlines Emily's Mom is going to the mountains with a dude she met last week… hang on now.

What if you were never actually supposed to calm yourself down alone?Dr. Arielle Schwartz breaks down why self-soothing on your own rarely works and why real calm actually depends on co-regulation with another person. This conversation goes beyond standard nervous system advice into the difference between empathy and compassion, and why too much of the wrong one leaves you just as burned out as before. It's the conversation you need if you've ever wondered why willpower alone never seems to be enough.What you'll learn:Why your nervous system can't calm down without another personThe real difference between empathy and compassionWhy what looks like burnout is often unprocessed traumaDr. Arielle Schwartz is a clinical psychologist who has spent thirty years treating complex trauma using a nervous-system-informed, non-pathologizing approach. She combines EMDR, somatic therapy, and parts work into a model she calls Resilience-Informed Therapy, and has written eight books on trauma recovery. Her work reframes trauma symptoms as adaptive responses rather than pathology, which shapes everything in this conversation.Find Arielle's work and all links at: mindlove.com/465Want real support instead of trying to calm yourself down completely on your own?

Sometimes you know you could look at your child's behavior differently... but you don't want to. You're angry. You're resentful. And part of you feels like letting go of those feelings would mean ignoring something that isn't okay. When that happens, trying to force yourself to calm down or change your thoughts may be skipping something important. In this episode, I'll explain why recurring anger and resentment can be signals and what you may need to understand before those feelings can loosen their grip. In this episode, you'll hear: • Why part of you may resist letting go of anger, even when you know it isn't helping • What your frustration or resentment may be trying to tell you • What to do before trying to change your thoughts so you can respond more calmly, without relying on willpower -- FREE RESOURCE: Does your child have a narrow zone of tolerance?

SummaryHave you ever felt like losing weight means saying no to everything you enjoy?Maybe you avoid social events, spend all week waiting for a cheat meal, or feel like one meal can ruin all your progress. You may be able to follow a strict plan for a few days or weeks, but it starts to fall apart as soon as life gets busy.In this episode, Chase and Chris explain why you should not have to put your entire life on hold to lose weight.The problem may not be that you need more discipline. Your plan may simply not fit your real life.Chase and Chris talk about the difference between following a temporary diet and building a lifestyle you can maintain. A diet often gives you strict rules to follow. A lifestyle helps you learn how to make choices during busy weeks, weekends, vacations, stressful days, and social events.That does not mean you never have to make sacrifices. You may need to drink less at some events, choose a different meal, skip an appetizer, plan ahead, or say no sometimes. But you should not feel like you have to be perfect or avoid everything you enjoy.They also explain why your sleep, stress, schedule, boundaries, routines, and relationships can affect your progress just as much as your food and workouts.The goal is not to get better at suffering through another diet. The goal is to create healthy habits that feel like a normal part of your life.Want to join us for the All or Nothing Masterclass on Monday July 20th, 2026 at 8pm?

From Niagara-On-The-Lake, Rob Bebenek outlines his health goals: lose-weight-gain-weight-get-hernia and repeat. And from the Winnipeg Comedy Festival, Larke Miller shares some stories about some of her more alarming dates!

When another person is upset or angry, our instinct can be to help them lower their emotional temperature by saying something like, "Just calm down," or, "Relax," or, "Take a breath," or, "Look at the facts." However, saying those things when the other person is in the heat of the moment can have the reverse effect from what we were hoping for.The reason is simple: People who do not feel heard are not ready to hear solutions.In this episode, we explore the communication strategy of valence matching, why it works at both a psychological and neurological level, and how it can transform interactions with patients, colleagues, consultants, and loved ones. Finally, we show how a few seconds of emotional attunement can save minutes, or even hours, of unnecessary conflict.

Y'all, we gotta give a little warning with this one, it may get a little spicy. To prep for this episode, we turned to the internet to see what advice pet parents are likely to find, and boy, oh, boy… We don't even know how to end this sentence. In this episode, Emily and Tiffany are getting into why the things that come up when you search “How to calm down a hyper dog” aren't bad, just… You know, overly simplistic, prescriptive management techniques that aren't actually addressing the issue. We're breaking down the small kernels of truth we can take away from this advice, why it isn't working for you, and what it actually means to teach a lifelong skill, not shift the blame onto pet parents for not being “chill” enough. Calm isn't a personality trait. It's not breed destiny. It's a skill that can be built through repetition, in the right conditions, with the right feedback. We promise, and if you don't believe us, you can ask our clients. TLDL (too long, didn't listen): 3 Key Takeaways 1️⃣ Down-regulation is a skill – Skills can be taught through repetition, in the right conditions, with the right feedback.2️⃣ Rest and relaxation aren't the same thing – A dog can rest while totally wound up, and be completely relaxed while wide awake. Conflating the two sends us chasing the wrong metric. 3️⃣ It's not wrong, just incomplete – There's a kernel of truth in the common advice, but there's also a lot missing. If it hasn't worked, it doesn't mean it won't; it means we need to tweak.For the full episode show notes, including the resources mentioned in this episode, go here.Amazon Affiliate StorefrontFind products we recommend at the Pet Harmony Amazon Storefront.As an Amazon Associate, Pet Harmony earns from qualifying purchases.More from Pet HarmonyPet Parents: enrichment ideas and practical behavior tips

Today's guest is someone who writes straight from the trenches of parenting young kids where big feelings, bedtime battles, and those wildly beautiful, messy moments of connection all collide. I'm Flora McCormick, licensed therapist and parenting coach, and I'm joined by author Julia Shaw, whose children's book The Grumpy Wumpus was born straight out of real-life bedtime battles, public blowups, and those painfully relatable moments when a sweet toddler seems to morph into someone else.Julia tells the story of her oldest flipping from easygoing to furious around the toddler years and how the standard emotional regulation advice didn't land. From that frustration came a playful, powerful idea: externalizing big emotions by naming them. “The Grumpy Wumpus” creates a little space between a child and their behavior, helping kids understand “I'm having big feelings” without absorbing “I am bad.” We also connect the dots to clinical concepts therapists use with adults and kids, including how stress chemistry can hijack the brain and why connection often works better than correction in the heat of the moment.We go deeper into the hard parts too, including Julia's experience with postpartum depression and waves of rage that made her realize why some coping strategies feel useless mid-storm. Our shared takeaway is simple and freeing: big feelings don't always need fixing. Sometimes the most sustainable move is to ride the wave, keep everyone safe, and trust that the peak will pass.If you want practical support for toddler tantrums, emotional outbursts, and the messy middle between overly gentle parenting and overly harsh discipline, press play.

We often think peace will come once life finally calms down — once the pressure lifts, the bills are paid, the relationship is easier, work slows down, or the season changes.   But if peace depends on having no problems, peace will always be temporary.   In this episode, I talk about why peace is not the absence of problems, but the ability to stay grounded in the middle of them. Real peace is not avoidance, escape, or pretending everything is fine. It is built through truth, responsibility, faith, discipline, forgiveness, and learning how to carry life without letting it own you.   Sometimes we are not actually chasing peace — we are chasing relief. This episode is about learning the difference.   If you liked the show, help it grow!   Leave a review and rate 5 stars on Apple Podcast, and Spotify!

If you've been asking, “Is My Child's Behavior Normal?” you're not alone. Knowing when to wait and when to act can feel overwhelming—but it starts with understanding patterns. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, expert in Regulation First Parenting™, helps you decode dysregulation with clarity and confidence.Worried and constantly Googling, “Is My Child's Behavior Normal?” You're not alone. When big reactions, meltdowns, or mood swings keep showing up, it's hard to know what's a phase—and what needs support.Here's how to read the signs and respond with confidence.Is My Child's Behavior Normal or a Sign of Something More?If you're asking this, it's not coming from curiosity—it's coming from concern. You're seeing patterns: big emotions, tough recoveries, or ups and downs that don't quite sit right.Here's the shift: Stop asking if it's “normal” and start asking what the behavior is telling you about your child's nervous system. Behavior is communication.All kids have big feelings—that's developmentPatterns tell the real story, not one-off momentsYou're not overreacting—you're noticing something importantHow Often Is Too Often for Meltdowns?Frequency matters more than labels.A meltdown once in a while? That's part of growing up. But when struggles happen daily or constantly, it's a sign the nervous system is overloaded.Occasional = expectedFrequent = a signal something needs supportLook for patterns over time, not isolated eventsOne parent shared her child melted down every night after school—it wasn't “bad behavior,” it was overwhelm spilling out.Why Does My Child Overreact to Small Things?If your child explodes over something minor, it's not about the moment—it's about capacity.Big reactions to small triggers = a stressed nervous system.Does the reaction match the situation?Are emotions escalating quickly?Does it feel bigger than it should?When the brain is dysregulated, even tiny stressors feel huge.Want to stay calm when your child pushes every button? Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP and get the FREE Regulation Rescue Kit—your step-by-step guide to stop oppositional behaviors without yelling or giving in. Go to www.drroseann.com/newsletter and grab your kit today.Why Does It Take My Child So Long to Calm Down?Recovery is the piece most parents miss.Some kids bounce back in minutes. Others take hours—or even days. That's not defiance. That's limited regulation capacity.Long recovery = full stress cupKids can't “snap out of it” when overwhelmedRegulation skills are built—not forcedThink of it like this: if the cup is overflowing, adding one drop causes a flood.Why Is My Child Fine at School but Falls Apart at Home?This is more common than you think—and deeply misunderstood.Kids often hold it together in structured environments and release it where they feel safest—you.It's called after-school restraint collapseNot manipulation—it's nervous system depletionSafe environments = emotional releaseExample: Josh looked “fine” at school, but had daily meltdowns at home. His brain used all its energy holding it together—and had nothing left.When Should I Worry About My Child's Behavior?Here's your guide. Look at four key patterns:Frequency – Is it constant?Intensity – Does it feel extreme?Recovery – How long to bounce back?Impact – Is it affecting daily life?If you see increasing intensity, longer recovery, and growing impact, it's time to lean in—not wait it out.

How many times have you said — once things settle down, I'll start. Once the uncertainty passes, I'll make the plan. Once I feel less anxious, I'll show up fully. In today's episode, Celeste addresses one of the most common ways anxiety keeps us stuck — the waiting room. The place where we put our lives on hold until conditions are perfect. Spoiler: the conditions are never going to be perfect. And your life is happening right now. If you've been living in the waiting room, this one is going to challenge you to walk out of it.

Today on the Gist, the US intelligence assessment of the Iran blockade, and why the current administration lacks the attention span for a prolonged overseas conflict. Then, Dartmouth professor Russ Muirhead and Calm Down author Ben Dreyfuss join the panel for another round of Not Even Mad. The trio tackles the media's catastrophizing of political violence, the electoral baggage of RFK Jr.'s fringe health initiatives, and a radical proposal to fix Congress by expanding the House of Representatives.
