• 108: The Emotional Intelligence Cheat Sheet for Heated Moments

  MIC DROP MOMENT!So I have now come to question every situation I've been in because... what if every argument, every eye-roll, every “you’re so unfair!” moment… isn’t just something to survive, but an invitation to finally break old habits and RECREATE who you are in the face of stress and conflict? Stay with me...Today I’m sharing a powerful coaching strategy, a monumental shift that will change how you see fights/upset/arguments/ with your kids, your partner, and even strangers at the checkout. Inspired by a real-life parenting moment that brought this lesson home for me and my son last night, I'll show you exactly how emotional intelligence helps you move from control to connection, EVEN in the heat of the moment.You’ll learn:Why conflict is never really about “winning” and the powerful quote that will transform the way you respondThe hidden truth every tough conversation reveals: the gap between who you want to be and what you’re currently doing (hello, cognitive dissonance)What to say (and not say) when tensions rise, with four practical, honest scripts you can start using todayWhy you don’t have to handle things perfectly, but you do need to do one important thing after a tense situationSimple ways to model emotionally intelligent conflict resolution for your kids — even if you’re still figuring it out yourselfThis isn’t just about staying calm. It’s about becoming the kind of parent, partner, and person you truly want to be — one choice, one conversation at a time.Because in every moment, you get to decide: Will I escalate… or evolve? 🌟 Follow me on Insta @emotionally.intelligent.parentHave you joined my Facebook Group for parents?

• 107: Self-Regulation BEFORE Co-Regulation?! (I Was Shocked Too): Nervous System Parenting with Justin Sunseri

  Most people believe that parenting is all about managing your child’s behaviour. But the truth is BOTH your child’s outbursts AND your own reactions are driven by your nervous systems.
