"It's not our job to remove every obstacle from our children's path. It's our job to walk with them through it." In this conversation, Heather sits down with Alyssa Black Campbell, author of Big Kids, Bigger Feelings, for a powerful discussion on emotional safety, nervous system regulation, and what kids really need to thrive at home and in the classroom. They explore the myth of middle childhood being the “easiest” phase, how trauma-informed education changes lives, and why parenting is deeply personal, emotional, and yes sometimes selfish.

Have you noticed that since school started, your afternoons feel more chaotic? Maybe your child walks in the door, drops their backpack, and bursts into tears—or lashes out over the smallest thing. It can leave you wondering if something is wrong with them…or with you. The truth is, what you're seeing is incredibly common. In fact, there's even a name for it: restraint collapse. After holding it together all day at school, kids often come home to the one place where they feel safe enough to release all the emotions they've been bottling up. And while it can be overwhelming to parent through these meltdowns, there are simple, practical ways to help them regulate and recharge. In this encore episode, I'm joined by Alyssa Blask Campbell, an educator, researcher, and founder of Seed & Sew. Alyssa explains why after-school meltdowns are so common and offers doable strategies you can put into place right away to help your afternoons feel calmer and more connected. In this conversation, you'll learn:
Even the strongest can hit rock bottom. Ezekiel knew what it was like to feel bitter, broken, and overwhelmed—but he also discovered that God was still there. Our lowest moments are not wasted. God works through them to bring hope, healing, and life to others.
In this episode of Parent Like a Psychologist, we dive deep into one of the most overwhelming and confusing challenges parents face: meltdowns. If your child goes from calm to explosive over small things, can't be reasoned with in the heat of the moment, or leaves the whole family feeling like they're walking on eggshells—you're not alone, and you're not a bad parent. Together, we explore: The key difference between tantrums and meltdowns Why meltdowns happen (and what they're really communicating) Common triggers like transitions, unexpected changes, sensory overwhelm, fatigue, hunger, and difficult demands What not to do during a meltdown (and why reasoning or escalating doesn't work) What to do instead—including staying calm, reducing demands, creating safety, and helping your child regulate How to reconnect and reflect after the storm so your child learns and builds coping skills You'll also hear practical strategies, from using the “cup of capacity” analogy to building a calming plan or kit, that can help prevent meltdowns or make them easier to navigate when they do happen. This episode will leave you feeling reassured, better equipped, and more compassionate—both toward your child and yourself. Remember, meltdowns aren't a sign of failure. They're signals. And with the right tools and mindset, you can respond in ways that truly support your child's emotional needs. If you're ready to go deeper, check out the Chaos to Calm program, where we work alongside parents to create personalized strategies for understanding and managing meltdowns.

Hochverehrte Leserschaft, es war ein Schauspiel von geradezu dramatischer Wucht: Alina, hochschwanger, taumelt durch die letzten Atemzüge der 38. Woche – mal heulend, mal lachend, mal Blumensträuße in die Ecke feuernd. Neben ihr: Fanny, die unerschütterliche Chronistin, die zwischen Windelkriegen, Schulkindtränen und Müsli-Meltdowns den Überblick bewahrt. In dieser Episode erleben Sie den Wahnsinn zwischen praller Fruchtblase, überkochender Hafermilch und der Frage: „Warum zum Teufel haben Männer immer Empfangsprobleme genau dann, wenn's ernst wird?“ Wir sprechen über Streitkultur mit Blumen, Kinder, die plötzlich zu kleinen Kotzfontänen mutieren, und den bittersüßen Schmerz, wenn ein Zahn im Abfluss verschwindet. Doch keine Sorge, geneigte Gesellschaft – Humor, Selbstironie und das ein oder andere diabolische Lachen halten die Damen über Wasser. Eine Folge, so chaotisch, dass selbst die Steuererklärung dagegen wie ein Wellness-Tag wirkt. Lady Leisadale hat gesprochen.

In this conversation, Nina Caviggiola and Emily Daniels discuss the critical role of co-regulation in educational settings, emphasizing the importance of adult regulation for effective teaching and learning. They explore the definitions of regulation and co-regulation, share real-life examples, and critique traditional behavior management systems. Emily offers practical tips for parents to help their children regulate at home and discusses how parents can advocate for co-regulation practices in schools. The conversation highlights the need for a paradigm shift in education towards understanding and supporting the nervous system's role in behavior and learning. Emily Read Daniels is the creator and author of The Regulated Classroom —an evidence-based framework that enables educators to cultivate conditions for felt safety in the classroom. She developed this framework after spending years as a school counselor working with dysregulated students and staff, knowing that teachers needed tools and practical strategies for coping with and recovering from trauma. https://www.regulatedclassroom.com/ The best way to cook just got better.

Big kids mean big feelings and sometimes that shows up as defiance, meltdowns, or even anxiety. In this episode, I'm breaking down what's really going on beneath the surface and why it's not just “bad behavior.” We often think school-aged is cruising with emotions but big feelings are common. I'm joined by returning guest Alyssa Campbell, a child development expert, to provide the right tools for when emotions can feel overwhelming. We'll talk about how age bias often shapes the way adults respond to older kids' emotions, why yelling or punishment backfires, and how collaborative emotional processing can help kids feel understood while still respecting boundaries. You'll learn: Why defiance is often a sign of unmet needs, not disrespect The role of age bias in how we label behavior in older vs. younger kids How collaborative emotional processing helps kids regulate big emotions Practical, evidence-based ways to respond to meltdowns, worry, and pushback using her “F.A.C.T.S.” method How to raise kids who feel both confident and connected To connect with Alyssa Campbel check out all her resources at https://www.seedandsew.org/about.

In this episode of Just the Guys, the hosts — joined by a new guest, Kevin — tackle the important and nuanced topic of anger, meltdowns, and their impact on relationships. Drawing from their own neurodiverse experiences and relationships, they explore whether “meltdown” and “anger” are interchangeable, and how these emotional states affect not only the individual but everyone around them. They discuss how to recognize the line between frustration and a full meltdown, using vivid metaphors like pilots ignoring warnings, or weightlifters knowing their limits. The group reflects on the critical role of recognizing when you can still listen to reason versus when you've spiraled beyond control — and the consequences of both states. The conversation highlights how meltdowns are not always loud or angry; they can also manifest as emotional shutdowns. Regardless of form, every reaction has an impact on spouses, children, and the relational climate. The guys discuss the helplessness, fear, and even trauma that partners can feel in the wake of repeated meltdowns, and how chronic incidents can lead to hopelessness in relationships. Importantly, they emphasize the necessity of repair and introspection. Repair involves accountability, understanding the harm caused, listening to feedback without defensiveness, and working to prevent future incidents. They remind listeners that repairing trust is a team effort — built on grace, openness, and hard work — and that even if meltdowns stem from autistic traits, the behavior and its consequences still require ownership and restoration. The episode closes with a reminder that meltdowns and their impacts cannot simply be brushed aside — they must be acknowledged and addressed, because every action has an impact.

Parenting in the middle years (ages 5–12) comes with big feelings, new social pressures, and challenges parents don't always see coming. Alyssa Blask Campbell, author of the new book, Big Kids, Bigger Feelings, joins me this week to unpack the emotional, social, and developmental shifts of the middle years. Together we explore: The ninth sense: neuroception. How this rarely talked about sense shapes kids' feelings of safety, belonging, and regulation. What it means to support kids based on their unique nervous system and sensory profile (and why one-size-fits-all strategies don't work). How to replace control with curiosity to strengthen connection and reduce conflict. The role of social belonging, identity, and “fitting in” during the elementary years—and why what feels small to us can feel huge to them. Practical tools for navigating anxiety, dysregulation, and big feelings in ways that foster resilience and confidence. Big kids really do have bigger feelings—and this episode will leave you with fresh insights, concrete strategies, and a sense of clarity as you support your child through these transformative years.

Welcome to the Future Generations Podcast with Guest Alyssa Campbell, author of "Tiny Humans, Big Emotions" (New York Times Bestseller) and her newest book "Big Kids, Bigger Feelings" out this September. In this episode, Dr. Stanton Hom talks with Alyssa Campbell, diving deep into the complex world of children's emotional intelligence and nervous system development. Targeting parents of children aged 5-12, educators, and child development professionals, the conversation explores the nine sensory systems, how children process stimuli, and provides practical strategies for supporting emotional growth. Campbell breaks down the unique ways children experience and regulate their emotions, offering insights that can help parents move from reactive parenting to intentional, compassionate guidance. Highlights: "All behaviors are communication of a need." "What we're sensitive to drains our nervous system. What we're seeking recharges it." "We're all unique humans, and the way our nervous system works is unique." "It's not a question of whether your body is wise. The question is, what is your body trying to say?"

On Mount Carmel, Elijah called down fire from heaven and watched God do the impossible. But right after this spiritual high, he crashed into fear, despair, and exhaustion—so deep he prayed that his life would end. Even the strongest and most faithful can hit rock bottom. But Elijah's story reminds us of something powerful: God doesn't abandon us in our lowest moments. He meets us with rest, provision, and a gentle whisper that says, “I'm not done with you yet.”
Danielle und Katja sprechen mit Katrin Hansch – Mutter zweier neurodivergenter Kinder, systemische Beraterin und selbst autistisch. Mit viel Herz, Humor und Klarheit erzählt sie von ihrem Familienalltag jenseits gesellschaftlicher Erwartungen: strukturiert statt spontan, reizarm statt trubelig. Wir sprechen über erste Hinweise auf Autismus, den langen Weg zur Diagnose, das Leben als autistische Mutter, Masking, Stimming, Reizüberflutung, Meltdowns und alltägliche Herausforderungen – und darüber, warum es so wichtig ist, den eigenen Weg zu gehen. Katrin macht Mut und gibt praktische Einblicke, wie Familien im Autismus-Spektrum gestärkt werden können.

This week on the FML Podcast, listeners shared some truly raw and relatable struggles. From a devastating financial betrayal that left one person drowning in debt, to a car owner battling a failing engine and shady rental charges, the stress was real. Another listener opened up about the emotional toll of a crumbling family life, juggling divorce, caregiving, and a heartbreaking diagnosis. And for parents, the preschool drop-off drama hit close to home, with tears and tough transitions. These stories remind us that life can be messy—but you're never alone in it.

The crew dives headfirst into NFL Week One, where they call out everyone from Ravens' coach John Harbaugh for conservative play-calling to Giants' owner John Mara for the team's abysmal start. Week one overreactions were in full swing, with Rooster delivering an all-time tirade against the Giants, demanding (again) for the coach be fired and Wilson benched for Jackson Dart. The guys broke down the Eagles-Cowboys game in detail, with House talking about Dak Prescott's lack of mobility, CeeDee Lamb's drops, and the pre-game "Spitgate" incident that saw Jalen Carter ejected. Other notable discussions included surprising performances from the Packers and Chargers, disappointment in the Lions and Dolphins, and an early look at Aaron Rodgers' successful return.Sadly for Milk, the conversation shifted to college football, where Milk unleashes his own epic rant about the Florida Gators after their embarrassing loss to in-state rival South Florida. He calls for coach Billy Napier to be fired, lamenting that the program is stuck with him due to an $18 million buyout and faces a brutal upcoming schedule. Following football talk, the crew makes their weekly "Plaxico" (NFL) and "Menteer Matters" (NCAAF) betting picks for the upcoming weekend's slate of games.The episode wraps up with punches and lassos featuring the viral story of "Philly Karen," a fan who took a home run ball from a child, and the subsequent lasso for player Harrison Bader, who made it right by giving the kid an autographed bat. We talk about a couple "Buzzer Beaters," touching on major injuries plaguing the Phillies, the fallout of the WNBA season following Caitlin Clark's injury, and a recap of the US Open.Finally, they poured one out for two sports legends who recently passed away: longtime MLB player and manager Davey Johnson and iconic NHL goalie Ken Dryden.
Is the NFL really woke? If "End Racism" slogan in endzone bothers you - it's there for you; How do we save the next Brian Vasquez before it's too late? Trump is pushing for school-led prayer and it's gonna be a disaster; Some conservatives are really losing the thread on American exceptionalism
Donna Adelson's Courtroom Meltdowns EXPOSED | Family Turns Against Her Donna Adelson wanted jurors to see a sweet grandmother fighting for her family.

Former prosecutor Eric Faddis explains why image matters in court — and how Donna's demeanor may have backfired.

Disempowered to Empowered: Meltdowns, Boundaries & Donuts In this heartfelt episode, Patricia (she/her) shares three powerful personal stories that highlight the challenges—and wins—that come with being a sensitive, creative, neurodivergent human. From navigating family dynamics around living arrangements, to reclaiming power after a disempowering volunteer experience, and even exploring the emotional depth behind a simple craving for an apple fritter, Patricia offers an intimate and validating glimpse into what it's like to be an AuDHDer who feels things deeply—and still chooses to show up. KEY TAKEAWAYS · You don't need to justify your needs. “They don't have to understand why I need two months. I just do.” · High masking + high empathy often = emotional invisibility. You're not alone if you feel overlooked or undervalued. · Internalizers often seem fine while falling apart inside—naming your pain out loud is a radical act of self-love. · Disempowerment doesn't mean you're weak. It often comes from past trauma, sensory overload, or lack of support. · Communication isn't always immediate. It's okay if clarity or assertiveness comes a day (or three) later. · There's no such thing as “too sensitive”—just systems that weren't built for your needs. HIGHLIGHTS · Patricia emphasizes the importance of asserting one's needs without feeling apologetic. · She shares her experience of feeling disempowered in family dynamics and how she navigated that. · The conversation highlights the challenges of communication in relationships, especially for neurodivergent individuals. · Patricia discusses the significance of volunteering and how it contributes to her sense of empowerment. · She reflects on the internal struggles (and unrealistic desire) of wanting others to understand her needs without explicit communication. · The importance of processing emotions and taking time to understand one's feelings is emphasized. · Patricia shares her journey of finding strength in her volunteering experience with horses. · She discusses the impact of trauma on her ability to communicate effectively. · The conversation touches on the theme of sensitivity being a unique aspect of one's identity, not something to apologize for. · Patricia encourages listeners to embrace their sensitivity and understand its value. SOUND BITES "I need to have a meltdown." "It's my responsibility." "I felt seen and I felt heard." "I think we've learned to just detach from our feelings, to dissociate, and go along to get along—but it just doesn't work for us anymore." SENSITIVITY IS NOTHING TO APOLOGIZE FOR; IT'S HOW YOUR BRAIN IS WIRED You are not broken. You were shaped by systems that weren't built for you. You deserve rest, joy, and support exactly as you are. TOPICS COVERED · Autistic meltdowns & internal regulation: How Patricia recognized an impending meltdown and advocated for space and support. · Family boundaries & accommodation: The emotional toll of giving up a beloved workspace, and the grief that often goes unseen. · Losing & reclaiming joy: When creative hobbies fade and space feels scarce, how do you reconnect with yourself? · Assertiveness without apology: Speaking up about needs, even when it's hard, awkward, or overdue. · Feeling invisible in groups: Disempowerment during horse volunteer training and the journey to feeling confident and capable again. · Processing delays & trauma: Why it sometimes takes days to realize something didn't feel okay—and that's valid. · The donut story (yes, it matters): What a pastry can teach us about needs, unmet expectations, and healthy communication. · Relational repair & emotional safety: The delicate dance of vulnerability, misunderstanding, and being met with care. · The problem with people-pleasing: When masking and fawning keep you from honoring your own feelings. · What sensitivity really means: Reframing neurodivergent traits as strengths, not flaws. PODCAST HOST Patricia (she/her) was a Licensed Clinical Social Worker for over 17 years, but she is now exclusively providing coaching. She knows what it's like to feel like an outcast, misfit, and truthteller. Learning about the trait of being a Highly Sensitive Person (HSP), then learning she is AuDHD with a PDA profile, OCD and RSD, helped Patricia rewrite her history with a deeper understanding, appreciation, and a sense of self-compassion. She created the podcasts Unapologetically Sensitive and Unapologetically AuDHD to help other neurodivergent folks know that they aren't alone, and that having a brain that is wired differently comes with amazing gifts, and some challenges. Patricia works online globally working individually with people, and she teaches Online Courses for neurodivergent folks that focus on understanding what it means to be a sensitive neurodivergent. Topics covered include: self-care, self-compassion, boundaries, perfectionism, mindfulness, communication, and creating a lifestyle that honors you Patricia's website, podcast episodes and more: twww.unapologeticallysensitive.com LINKS To write a review in itunes: click on this link https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/unapologetically-sensitive/id1440433481?mt=2 select “listen on Apple Podcasts” chose “open in itunes” choose “ratings and reviews” click to rate the number of starts click “write a review”Website--www.unapologeticallysensitive.com Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Unapologetically-Sensitive-2296688923985657/ Closed/Private Facebook group Unapologetically Sensitive-- https://www.facebook.com/groups/2099705880047619/ Instagram-- https://www.instagram.com/unapologeticallysensitive/ Youtube-- https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCOE6fodj7RBdO3Iw0NrAllg/videos?view_as=subscriber Tik Tok--https://www.tiktok.com/@unapologeticallysensitiv Podcast UnapologeticallyAuDHD-- https://unapologeticallysensitive.com/unapologeticallyaudhd/ e-mail-- unapologeticallysensitive@gmail.com Show hashtag--#unapologeticallysensitive Music-- Gravel Dance by Andy Robinson www.andyrobinson.com
In this episode of the Parenting with Understanding podcast, Marcela shares her insights on managing intense child meltdowns. Drawing from personal experiences and research, Marcela introduces the concept of "personal attunement" as the key to calming these challenging moments. She emphasizes the importance of prioritizing a child's feelings and sense of safety, addressing underlying causes, and fostering a secure environment through co-regulation. If you're ready to stop yelling, stop reacting in anger, and finally feel calm and confident when your child has a meltdown… this is for you. Your child's behavior isn't the real problem.That's the message. And once you learn to see it that way, you'll stop fighting your child… and start healing your relationship with them. So don't wait. DM me “peace 25” on Instagram right now and get started with the free class.@highimpactaz@hicparenting Because your child doesn't need a perfect parent.They need a safe one. And that parent can be you.

If your child turns into a different person after screen time, you're not imagining it.You're not alone if your once-sweet kid becomes reactive, moody, or shut down after using digital devices. Many parents are overwhelmed by meltdowns, mood swings, and total refusal to transition after screen use—and they're left wondering what went wrong.Let me down what too much screen time really does to the developing brain and how it fuels dysregulation, anxiety, and poor emotional control. Most importantly, I'll share simple, consistent strategies you can use to set limits before things spiral out of control.Why does screen time affect my child's emotions so much?We often think of screens as harmless entertainment, but they trigger a storm inside the brain. Fast-paced videos and online games light up the dopamine system, conditioning kids to crave more and more stimulation. At the same time, the part of the brain that helps with self-regulation—the prefrontal cortex—gets underused.Add in blue light exposure that disrupts melatonin and sleep cycles, and you have a perfect storm for emotional dysregulation. Even young kids are being impacted. In fact, 40% of American 2.5-year-olds have their own device.This constant stimulation overwhelms the nervous system and wires the brain for volatility. And when there's no recovery time, kids start to struggle with mood, transitions, and basic regulation.Discover how to shift your child from chaos to calm with our proven Quick Calm Toolkit.What are signs of screen time dysregulation?If your child seems irritable or totally zoned out after screen use, that's not normal—it's their brain signaling overload. Many parents describe their kids as “not themselves” after using digital devices.Common red flags include:Meltdowns or aggression that show up after screen time endsMoodiness or emotional shutdown even after brief device useAvoidance of non-screen tasks like homework or choresRefusal to engage socially or try new activitiesAnxiety, anger, or compulsive behaviors tied to screen habitsIn fact, one mom told me her 10-year-old “checks out” for hours after gaming. He won't eat, talk, or play—and it's happening more often.How can I set screen limits without daily power struggles?The key is to set boundaries before the device turns on—not in the middle of a meltdown.Have calm, clear conversations ahead of time about screen time rules. Involve your child when possible by asking, “How much time feels fair to you?” This helps them feel heard—even if their answer is unrealistic.Once a boundary is set, stick to it without emotion or debate. That consistency is what rewires the brain for self-control.Use language that connects to brain health: “You're not in trouble. Your brain is just telling us it needs a break.” Or: “Your brain needs to recharge so it can feel strong and happy.”You can also plan buffer time after screens—like five minutes of movement, a snack, or calming connection. This supports the nervous system and makes transitions smoother.If you're tired of walking on eggshells or feeling like nothing works…Get the FREE Regulation Rescue Kit and finally learn what to say and do in the heat of the moment.Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP at
