287: How Not to Be a Fear-Based Parent (Ditch the Scare Tactics and Raise a Resilient, Motivated Kid)
Parenting is not an easy journey, and in moments of frustration or worry, it’s tempting to fall into fear-based parenting—using threats, punishments, or even guilt to discipline and push kids toward good behavior. However, fear-based parenting is not the way to go. If we continue with fear-based parenting, we're just teaching our kids to doubt themselves, keeping them stuck in a fear cycle instead of helping them grow and thrive. Let’s break the cycle of fear-based parenting and raise kids who are resilient, confident, and intrinsically motivated. When children feel safe, supported, and empowered, they develop the skills to navigate life’s challenges with confidence. In today’s episode, we’ll explore how to move away from fear-based parenting and foster emotional security, problem-solving skills, and overall well-being in your child.Not sure where to start?

286: Parenting Emotional Regulation: Simple Techniques to Help Kids Handle Stress and Frustration
Kids these days are struggling more than ever with handling stress and frustration. In an effort to protect kids from discomfort, adults often step in too quickly, solving problems for them instead of teaching them how to work through challenges. While this may offer a short-term solution, it prevents children from developing the resilience and problem-solving abilities they need to handle life’s challenges.When kids learn to manage frustration, they feel more capable—and when they feel good about themselves, there’s no limit to what they can do. In this episode, we’ll explore why so many kids struggle with stress and frustration today, what’s missing in their coping toolkit, and how small shifts in our approach can make a big difference. Let’s empower kids to handle stress in a healthy way so they can thrive, no matter what life throws their way.

285: Restful Sleep, Regulated Behavior: Dr. Roseann’s Sleep Strategies for Kids
Sleep is one of the most overlooked yet essential factors for both children and adults. We often focus on diet, exercise, and mental health, but without quality sleep, everything else suffers insofar as the brain and body cannot function optimally. In fact, inadequate or poor sleep can manifest in so many ways like emotional outbursts, brain fog, difficulty concentrating, heightened anxiety, and even physical symptoms like headaches or a weakened immune system.When sleep is optimized, the brain functions more efficiently, emotions become easier to manage, and both kids and adults experience greater overall well-being. That’s why we’re taking a closer look at sleep and its powerful impact on regulation. In this episode, we’ll explore practical strategies to help kids get the quality rest they need to stay calm, focused, and balanced in everyday life.Not sure where to start?

284: Breaking the Screen Time Struggle: Helping Kids Transition Off Devices
Nowadays, parents face a constant struggle when it comes to managing their children’s screen time. While technology can be a powerful tool for learning and connection, it also creates real challenges for parents trying to set limits, encourage balance, and prevent screen-related meltdowns. As we know, excessive screen use can impact children's mood, attention span, and ability to engage in real-world activities, making it even harder for them to develop healthy self-regulation skills. That's why it's vital for us to help our kids transition off their devices in a way that minimizes friction and supports their emotional regulation. It’s absolutely possible to make this transition smoother with the right strategies and boundaries.Not sure where to start? We'll help you find the right solution tailored to your needs.
