When we talk about raising emotionally healthy kids, a big part of that is teaching kids what to DO with their feelings. Giving them better strategies to manage their feelings than name calling, hitting, running away, or shutting down. You'll Learn:Why movement is the best way to process big feelings.How to keep everyone safe if your child is hitting, kicking, or hurting3 categories of movement that help kids (and adults) regulate their nervous systemsHow to use your child's behavior as a clue to what their body needsListen as I talk about how to help your kid calm down in a really practical way.---------------------------------------------------3 Ways to Calm DownWhen the brain gets overwhelmed or feels threatened, it gets flooded with chemicals like cortisol and adrenaline. The best way to calm the nervous system is almost always to let the emotional energy out through the body, through movement. I like to think of movement in 3 categories: #1: Push it out. Push the big feelings out. I think of these as big, heavy movements. #2: Pull it in. Pull in a sense of comfort and soothing. These are quieter.#3: Move it around. Swirl the emotion around inside your body to shake it up and get it unstuck. When you notice that your kid is dysregulated (e.g. they're seeming a little “off”, having big feelings, or are in full meltdown mode), ask yourself…“What do they need? Do they need to push it out, pull it in, or move it around?”Use your child's behavior as a clue to what they need. For example, if they're hitting, kicking, spitting, punching, running away, yelling, they likely need to push it out. If you try something and it doesn't work, no problem. Try another type of movement. You'll start to see patterns of what works best for you and your child.Why It Works: Co-RegulationThis thing that I'm teaching you is called co-regulation. Basically, your child is dysregulated. They are not able to catch their nervous system and bring it back online. So they need support from you in order to get back to baseline. If you can be a calm and regulated adult in that situation, then your child can “borrow” your calm nervous system. With your support, they will likely be able to move through a Big Feeling Cycle (aka meltdown or tantrum) faster. And once you have practiced these strategies together, you can help them to regulate before the train has fully left the station. One thing I want you to understand: Co-regulation is not easy.There will be times when you aren't able to co-regulate. You might find yourself getting dysregulated while this Big Feeling Cycle is going on. It might feel very hard for you to stay present in front of your child. That's okay. If you feel like you need to escape, that's fine. Just explain. If you leave the room abruptly or in anger, it can feel like a kind of abandonment. So, say some soothing comments to them before you leave, like, “I'm gonna go calm my body. I'm gonna let you calm your body. I love you, and I will be back.”If you're judging yourself or thinking “I can't handle this kid,” try telling yourself this instead: “In this moment, my child is dysregulated. I don't have the capacity to co-regulate. I'm going to trust that my kid's nervous system is able to manage itself.”Because here's the truth. Yes, we want to teach our kids healthy strategies to regulate and self-soothe. AND the nervous system is naturally drawn to finding a way back to balance. It may not always look pretty, but you can trust your child to get to a place of calm. You can trust that their body and their brain are going to get them to the other side of that dysregulation and get back to a regulated state.How To Help Your Kid Calm DownWhen your kid is in a Big Feeling Cycle, the first thing you want to do is look out for everyone's physical safety. You're not going to let your child regulate in ways that hurt themself or others. The value here is, “In this house, everyone stays safe.” For example, if your kid is hitting you, you can say. “In this house, everyone stays safe. You can be upset, you can have big feelings, but I will not let you hit me. I am going to get up and move away from you. I have to protect my body.” Then, calmly take a few steps back.It's okay to set some limits here. Like, “You can't hit me, but you can hit this pillow.” Or, “I see that you need to move your body, so what are you going to do?”Now, here are some more specific ways to use the 3 types of movement to help your kid regulate and get back to calm. Push it outSome signs that your kid needs to push the feeling out include hitting, stomping, throwing things, or doing other big body movements. I picture it like a mini-Hulk. They have all this energy in their body and they want to get it out. Start by observing. What are they doing? Are they mainly using their upper body or lower body? This can help you direct them to a better alternative. Here are some of my favorite movements to try:Carry something heavy. Give your kid the task of moving something heavy from one side of the room or house to the other.A grounding stomp. Stand up and stomp your feet on the ground. I think of this like a dinosaur or an elephant would stomp - BIG! Adding rhythm to it is even better. Ask your child to copy the rhythm or that you do. Push out through their hands. Hold up your hands and ask your kid to push against them with their hands as hard as they can. If they're too strong, or you have an injury, or you aren't able to do this for any reason, they can also push against a wall. Bear crawl or crab walk on the ground. Choose a movement that is a bit challenging for them. If your child is hitting… instead, have them try hitting a pillow or clapping their hands really loudly. If they want to kick, let them kick a ball against a wall if you have the space. Give a choice. If your child is hurting other people, you may need to get them out of the room to keep everyone safe. One thing I used to say to my son is, “You can't be in here because it's not safe. I could drag you like a caveman, or you can walk and stomp on your own.” You're moving the child, but they're gonna have some say in how they move. Add a little play to it if you can. Ask them to pretend that they're a dinosaur, caveman, pirate, snake, bear, whatever. Give ideas of how they can move their bodies in a big, aggressive (and safe) way. Pull it inPulling it in is about feeling cozy. These are going to be quiet, soothing movements.Squeeze and release. Have your child squeeze their hands into really tight fists. Then release. Let go. Get floppy like a noodle. Talk them through squeezing and releasing their arms, their shoulders, their face, their belly, their legs, their feet, their whole body. Butterfly hug. Have your kid cross their arms over their chest in a hug and give themself a squeeze. Then, with their hands still on their shoulders, have them gently tap their shoulder left, right, left, right. Other soothing movements include wrapping in a blanket, coloring, hugging or talking to a stuffed animal, drinking water, squeezing a stress ball, or petting a dog or cat. What about if your kid is dysregulated in public? You can't always find a quiet, cozy space. One thing to try is pulling them into you, giving them a hug, and saying something like, “You're having big feelings in your body. Let's figure out what to do with those feelings.”Move it around These movements are more gentle than pushing it out. You're just moving them around a little bit, allowing a little bit of energy shift inside the body.Shimmy shake. Have your kid put their hands in the air and then shake their whole body from their hands all the way through their chest, hips, knees, legs… all the way to the ground, and then shake it back up. You can pretend that you're shaking off the negative feelings like you're shaking off water from your hands.Some other great ways to move it around are:DanceDo some jumping jacksSwingRockRemember that these movements come after you've already used the Connection Tool to notice, narrate, name, and validate. This is the regulate piece. This is the answer to, “Okay, I validated their feelings. Now what?”Kids misbehave. They get dysregulated easily. They get overwhelmed and their nervous system misfires, especially if they're neurodivergent in any way.Through the Connection Tool and co-regulation, you are teaching them the skills to self-soothe and regulate. You're showing them healthy ways to cope with hard circumstances and uncomfortable feelings. And you (and the rest of your family) can learn to self-regulate right alongside them.

If you listen to this podcast or have worked with me in any of my programs, you are already practicing Nonviolent Communication (whether you realize it or not). Today's guest, Margot Magowan, is an expert on Nonviolent Communication, and she's here to show you how to use those principles for better connection with your kids. You'll Learn:The basic principles of Nonviolent Communication and how to use them in parentingExamples of using NVC in real-life situationsWays that your own needs show up in your parenting (and healthier ways to meet them)How to focus on how your child is feeling, even if their story isn't totally factual-----------------------------------------------------Margot Magowan, a mom of 3, says that learning about Nonviolent Communication helped to transform everything for her family. When her oldest daughter was 15 years old, she started having behavioral health challenges, like refusing to go to school, abusing drugs, and stealing. Over the course of 3 years, she went to various wilderness and residential programs, receiving access to all kinds of support and resources. Now, at age 22, Margot's daughter is thriving. She says, “I really credit it to me and my husband learning how to listen to her.” In her coaching practice, Margot supports other parents in learning how to truly listen to their children with presence and curiosity.The Basics of Nonviolent CommunicationNonviolent Communication (NVC) was created by Marshall Rosenburg, who believes that all human behavior is motivated by an attempt to meet certain universal needs. Margot explains that NVC is made up of 4 parts: observations, feelings, needs, and requests. Take the example of you and your partner getting ready to go to a party, and you're worried you're going to be late. Instead of saying, “We're gonna be late. Hurry up!”, using NVC might look like this:Observation - The invitation says 7:30, and it's 6:30 nowFeeling - I'm feeling anxiousNeed - My need for security isn't being metRequest - Would you be willing to leave in 15 minutes?Margot says that when she first learned this, it felt a little robotic (and her kids hated it when she talked to them that way). She says that what really helped it to feel more authentic was when she focused on her energy rather than her language.Basically, it's not about the script. It's about focusing on connection. This is called NVC Consciousness, which Margot explains as “being open and curious and present and compassionate to whatever is happening.” You're not trying to fix anything (sound familiar?).It goes hand in hand with the Connection Tool that I teach. You're going into the situation as a neutral witness and viewing your child's behavior as an expression of needs or feelings that they don't know how to handle. Ultimately, Nonviolent Communication is:Focusing on your feelingsIdentifying the universal needs underneath those feelingsExpressing that truth honestly, while staying connected to a person's humanityIt's important to keep in mind that the goal of NVC is not to get to the other emotion. Or to get compliance out of our kids. Although these things do sometimes often happen when we show up in a compassionate way. The Universal NeedsThere are quite a few universal needs within NVC (if you want to see them all, Margot has a free list for you here). She helped us out by breaking it down into a few key categories:Connection MeaningAutonomyHonestyPhysical Well-BeingPeacePlayFor example, if you walk into your child's room and find them lying in bed when they're supposed to be cleaning their room, your first thought might be, “Ugh, my kid is lazy. They're not doing what they're supposed to do.”After that initial thought passes, ask yourself, “What need are they trying to meet?” Maybe it's comfort or ease, and this is their best strategy to do that. Then, you can look at the behavior through a more neutral lens.And as a parent, if you're feeling angry, resentful, or frustrated, you probably have some sort of need that's not being met. Be really gentle with yourself in wondering why the situation is upsetting you so much.Margot says that NVC has made her more aware of her own needs and how to get them met. She says, “I was using all 3 of my kids to meet my own needs…I didn't need to shift my kids' behavior to meet my needs.” She figured out new strategies to take care of herself. Now, she sees that a lot of moms hold to strict rules for their kids because they are trying to meet their own need for safety. If you find yourself being rigid somewhere, ask yourself, “What am I scared of? What am I making this mean?” This is how you get to CALM. By managing your own needs and taking care of yourself, you can then show up in a connected, compassionate way for your child. The Giraffe and the JackalIn Nonviolent Communication, Marshall Rosenberg uses two animal metaphors: a Giraffe and a Jackal.The Giraffe is compassionate, open, and curious. The Jackal is more judgemental and angry. One of the things that Margot coaches parents on is spending time with the Jackal when it shows up. And how to get your needs met from someplace other than your kid (having a safe container, like a coach, to bring these feelings and needs to is super helpful). You can ask for this clearly if you're talking to your partner or a friend. Say something like, “I just want empathy. I just want you to listen to me and not try to make it better or fix it or take it away.” You can also do this for yourself in a journal if you need to. Here's the magic. When you show up as the Giraffe and listen to your kid and they feel safe and their nervous system regulates, they reach that state of compassion and curiosity in themselves. Margot says, “I feel like we're doing such a service of actually modeling how to show up for them so they can show up for themselves and be healthy adults.”Challenging ChangeThere is a real obstacle that happens when we change our parenting. Our children want what is reliable and predictable. So even if you've been yelling, this is what they know and expect. When you change your behavior, your kid might not feel like it's trustworthy or safe right away. It's unfamiliar, like you're an imposter. It freaks them out. Margot explains that her kids thought the yelling parents were the authentic ones. They didn't totally trust them when they stopped yelling and started trying this new approach. Your child might even try to pull you back into your own pattern. Their behavior will escalate and they'll almost want you to yell, because that's what they're used to. You have to restrain yourself and stay within your new value system long enough to get all the way through that emotion.Eventually, they will catch up to the new version. And they'll really like this calmer, more connected parent that you're becoming. It just takes some time. Doing something different isn't always easy in the short term, but the long term gains are so worth it.Previous Episodes:Episode 2.16 - The Connection Tool [New & Improved]Connect with Margot:Get the “Feelings & Needs List” that Margot talked about in this episode: https://listen2connectcoach.com/resourcesFollow Margot on Instagram @listen2connectcoach Learn more about her coaching, workshops, and more at https://listen2connectcoach.com/ Free Resources:Get your copy of the Stop Yelling Cheat Sheet!In this free guide you'll discover:✨ A simple tool to stop yelling once you've started (This one thing will get you calm.)✨ 40 things to do instead of yelling.

We also discuss the nuances of staffing, from leveraging the expertise of retired veterinarians to creating supportive environments for part-time staff free from the pressures of upselling. Discover why these models cater so effectively to demographics in need, like senior citizens, and how they adapt to ensure everyone has access to the care they deserve.  In this episode, you will hear: Passion for community cat welfare Nonprofit vs. traditional veterinary practice Recruiting part-time veterinarians for nonprofit clinic Consulting services for animal welfare organizations Promoting podcast engagement and connection Resources from this Episode Humane Network's Website - http://www.humanenetwork.org Options Veterinary Care's Website - www.optionsveterinarycare.org Find Humane Network on Instagram - https://www.facebook.com/HumaneNetwork Find Options Veterinary Care on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/OptionsVeterinaryCare Bonnie's Previous Episodes - Episode 364 (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/episode-364-bonney-brown-diane-blankenburg/), Episode 30 (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/episode-30-bonney-brown/), and Episode 181 (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/episode-181-bonney-brown/) This episode is sponsored in part by Maddie's Fund (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/maddies554), Urban Cat League (https://www.communitycatspodcast.com/urban-cat-league), and Tomahawk Live Trap.

This week we're wrapping up our monthly theme of worthiness. We're talking about the new job, claiming our worthiness to prepare for new levels, and living on our own terms. Let's talk about it. Previous Episodes: Episode 105 "The Pivot Queen" with Yvette Weir: https://www.buzzsprout.com/851650/10391508-the-pivot-queen.mp3?download=trueEpisode 104 "I'm Worthy": https://www.buzzsprout.com/851650/10358266-i-m-worthy.mp3?download=trueThings to remember while you're on the journey to worthiness1)    When you make significant changes, give yourself time to process before jumping into the next journey. Close the door and process all the things you're leaving behind, to make sure it doesn't block your new journey.  2)    Sitting your situation isn't wrong. Sometimes you must sit in your situation until you're ready to move. Only you can make the decision to realize that you're worthy of new levels and blessings.  3)    If you don't know your worth, your efforts will be in vain. You will constantly question yourself. You will allow negative self-talk to keep you limited due to your limited faith in YOU.  4)    There are always going to be setbacks and challenges on the journey. That's a part of life. 5)    You must craft a custom plan to help you execute. Create a plan that allows you to check in with yourself.  6)    Remember this is your time. No matter what it looks or feels like, this is your time.

I can easily change positions which has helped my back and gives me lots of options for all those Zoom calls. Timestamps (03:07) I've heard there is an almost out-of-control feral cat population in the city. Is this true? What does the city (or local rescues?) do to manage them? What's the state of animal rescue like in the city in general? (04:14) What are the best Creole Italian restaurants? (05:42) With family, a day job, the guidebook, and other interests, where do you find the time to research? (08:01) What episodes are your favorites? Are there any that went way above your expectations as far as learning about the subject and or guest? (12:17) What are some of your favorite childhood memories of growing up in New Orleans? Holidays? (18:24) What are the best places to visit/see/dine in NOLA at Christmastime? (18:40) Mark has talked about Reveillon dinners in a previous episode. Inspired us when visiting Christmastime in 2019. (21:03) I've heard Easter in New Orleans is a great time. Anything specific you'd recommend doing? Eating? Services? Parades? (22:18) What do you recommend to experienced visitors so they can take their appreciation of the city to a new level? (24:39) Is House of Dance and Feathers open? If not, is there any talk of it reopening ? (26:01) Are all the cemeteries open for tours? I remember one being closed indefinitely (28:09) I'm coming for the month of January. Should I plan on it being very rainy ? (28:46) What do you do for work other than keep us all happy ? (29:47) Can you try and get members of Tuba Skinny on the podcast!? (31:18) Why does there seem to be mainly white people (on Frenchmen Street)? The bands often have people of color but looking through my photos there are hardly any black patrons at the Spotted Cat, DBA and so on. (32:31) I would love to hear John Boutte on with you (and one of his sisters or two) or maybe he and Paul Sanchez with you. Click here to visit Paul Sanchez' You Tube channel and his Another Cup of Coffee series. (36:33) There are so many legends, rumors, and conjecture about Marie Laveau. It's hard to separate fact from fiction. The same about Voodoo. Have you done (or do know someone who has) any research on Marie? Where she lived, if she really was Catholic? Or was she really a Voodoo Queen? (38:52) What do most tourists overlook that they shouldn't? (41:36) What is the thing in the city you're MOST excited for when COVID is finally over? (43:24) Please discuss insect life in New Orleans both indoors (and how you might deal with it) and outdoors. Thank you.

There is no doubt in my mind that you love your kids with your whole heart, but they are driving you crazy. After being together 24/7 in the summer, you really need a break, am I right? So what's going on: why are we so irritated? In Episode 76, we're talking about how to show yourself compassion when you're with your kids All The Time. In this episode, we'll: Break down five subconscious beliefs we hold about parenting in the summer, Zoom out to what's really going on -- and you'll get a lot of freedom here! And zoom in on practicals so you can thrive, not just survive these remaining weeks of summer. Key Quotes You and I have bought into the idea that good moms don't have needs, are always at their best, and leverage every moment for maximum fun and memories. And we know we cannot be her.  God makes humans. Not machines. Not extra-humans. And He delights in your humanity. Your God isn't disappointed in your humanity; He is undeniably drawn more to it.  Mentioned in the Podcast The FCC requires that I tell you that I'm an Amazon Affiliate, which means I earn a bit of commission on each sale.

Do you struggle to offer grace to your kids? Are you ready to level up your grace-giving game?  Listen in for sustainable, realistic, kid-, teen-, and mom-approved methods to add a sprinkle more grace into your home. In this episode, you’ll learn: How God parents you with grace How you can offer that same grace to your children And one hard, but fail-proof way to be a grace-giving parent. Ready for easy and practical ways to extend grace to your kids? Listen in to this second episode in our Grace in Parenting series. Let’s start by understanding the five ways God offers you grace as He parents you.  God parents you with grace through how He: Knows you Serves you, Listens to you, Speaks to you And acts to help you. So how can you offer that same grace to your children? The first way to offer your kids grace is to get to know them. Know what they love. Know what upsets them or stresses them out. Understand the timing: snack time, nap time, testing week, etc.  Know their love language. Know what’s in- and out-of-character for them. The second way to offer your kids grace is to serve them. Ask them how you can pray for them. If running late, step into their jobs. Cover the little things during their busy weeks. Ask how you can help. The third way to offer your kids grace is to listen to them. Don’t dismiss.  Ask questions to get to the heart of the issue.  Put the phone down.  Remember you don’t have to fix their situation, but you do need to listen. The fourth way to offer your kids grace is to talk to them with gentleness. Cheer them on when you see them trying, even if not at the speed you’d like. Say “hello” before giving instructions. Don’t use sarcasm, passive-aggressiveness, guilt, or manipulation. The fifth and final way to offer your kids grace is to act in love. Treat your children with respect. Ask for forgiveness when you mess up. Acknowledge their feelings. Ask your kids how you’ve hurt them in the past then give them permission to offload those hurts without growing defensive. One hard, but fail-proof way to be a grace-giving parent Know your story.  What narratives were passed on to you by your own parents that maybe you’re acting out of by rote, but you don’t really agree with?  What lies or wounds have you believed over the years that haven’t been dealt with, but are leaking out onto your kids? What default coping mechanisms do you employ when you’re stressed that don’t serve you well? How did God wire you?  Key Quotes A teachable heart is a heart God can work with May we be mothers who respect God’s specific wiring of our people. It’s okay if your kids are unlike anyone else in your tribe. Give yourself and your children permission to live out what God has put in. The grace that flows from Christ to you can flow from you to your children.  Mentioned in the Podcast The FCC requires that I tell you that I'm an Amazon Affiliate, which means I earn a bit of commission on each sale.

How does your personality impact your parenting style? Where do you shine and struggle in motherhood? What are some God-centered habits to help you along the way? What do you do when you wonder why God made you a mom with all your flaws, twerks, and preferences? Sweet friend, I hope this episode -- the first in our Grace in Parenting series -- brings you comfort and a whole lot of joy as you recognize how beautifully God knit you together as a human, and how perfectly He placed your children in your family, even when it doesn’t feel like it. Because let’s be real: We all have days when we wonder what God was thinking when He made us a mom.  In this episode, we’ll dive into: Where your Enneagram type shines in parenting, Where your type struggles, And where grace meets you. Sweet mom friend, God 100% knew what He was doing when He matched you and your children together. He could think of no better person to raise your child than you: You with your short temper, and your love of clean countertops, and your desire for everything to go according to plan.  May this episode shed light on how awesome you are as a mom, how much you need Jesus as a mama, and how you can practically give yourself grace as you parent.  If you take nothing else away from this episode, please know this: You’re doing a great job mama.  Stay true to the type of mom God created you to be. You don’t need to be like your best friend, sister-in-law or mom. The comparison game can end when you know God delights in how He made you Your children need you to be who God created! When you realize you don’t have to be like every other mom on the block, but uniquely you, the joy in parenting will explode!

Slowing down your pace sounds amazing, but how do you do that in real life? How can you practice open-handedness in the dailiness? How can you build rest into a busy season?  In the fourth episode of the Delete + Reset series, author Jennifer Dukes Lee tackles a topic that’s an ongoing struggle for try-hard girls: how to live a slower life when you believe your worth is based on all you do. Jennifer reminds you that good things take time to grow, that if you’re going to live like Jesus, you need to walk at a slower pace, and she defines what it means to have an unhurried heart. You’ll learn how to grow slow in a world that pushes you to keep up, how to replace harmful mindsets with God’s truth, and what to do when you’re tired of a busy life but are terrified of the idea of letting go of All The Things.  Key Quotes “There’s something worse than falling behind and that is not really appreciating and embracing the here-and-now the Lord has given us.” - Jennifer Dukes Lee “It takes time to grow good things.” - Jennifer Dukes Lee “An unexpected life is not the same thing as a bad life.” - Jennifer Dukes Lee “God doesn’t delight in our output as much as He just delights in our ordinary selves.” - Jennifer Dukes Lee “All those little things build a life.” - Jennifer Dukes Lee “We ourselves are fields. God is planting seeds in us, and He is growing things in us.” - Jennifer Dukes Lee “If I’m going to live like Jesus and be like Jesus, I need to slow down and walk with Jesus.” - Jennifer Dukes Lee  Mentioned in the Podcast Mentioned in the Podcast The FCC requires that I tell you that I'm an Amazon Affiliate, which means I earn a bit of commission on each sale.

We all have money mistakes.  Some of us have more and bigger mistakes than others....(slowly raises our hands to both).   FAILING FORWARD John Maxwell has a wonderful book called Failing Forward.  What he emphasizes is one of the most valuable lessons one can learn in life and it is this... Failure in and of itself is not bad.  The most important thing is how you respond to failure.  You can learn from it and try again and get better or you can walk away and let it prevent you from growing.  Most of you know our money story and know we've made quite a few money mistakes.  The biggest one of them being student loan debt.  The stress and magnitude of our student loan debt has been a barrier, mentally, emotionally and financially for years.  The enormity of our debt was also one of the catalysts for us to seek out help and eventually find the financial independence community.  We now have hope.  Hope not just for ourselves - but for a different future for our children. We have had lots of time to think about the things we would have done differently and steps we will be taking to ensure our children do not follow in our footsteps when it comes to debt.  OUR MISTAKES:  1. Lack of knowledge and options about how to pay for school without debt.  2. Taking out more money than we needed.  3. Not aggressively paying them off immediately after graduation.  4. Not taking advantage of the Public Student Loan Forgiveness programs (PSLF) WHAT WE WOULD DO DIFFERENTLY AND WHAT WE ARE DOING DIFFERENTLY FOR OUR CHILDREN:  1. Talking with our children and educating ourselves about options with how to pay for college.  Scholarships Extra-curricular scholarships Military 2. Options for College.  Community College Clep Testing Trade Schools 3. Defraying Costs for College 529 Plans Stay at home! State College vs. Private Schools   Previous Episodes: Episode 31 with Travis Hornsby, The Student Loan Planner Episode 14 with Tinian Crawford, DIY2FI Episode 12 with Grumpus Maximus  BOOKS MENTIONED: Failing Forward, by John Maxwell
