Mindful As A Mother Paige Bruce & Lindsay Adams

Today we’d like to extend a warm welcome to Katherine L’Etang. Katherine is joining us an autistic voice this season sharing her experience masking into adulthood, receiving her diagnosis, her experience with PDA (persistent drive for autonomy) with herself and her children, and how her journey through her life has shifted as she developed the skills to unmask and be her authentic self.

Last week we talked co-regulation, this week we’re deep diving into how we really teach it to our kids. Plot twist: it’s not what you think. The most powerful tool we have as parents is modeling and we give real-time examples of how to use this to effectively teach your children. We also walk you through our favorite tool to find your child’s SOS for when they need help regulating their emotions. As always, pick one skill to work on this week, go hard, and be curious.

This week we’re discussing co-regulation. We walk you through what co-regulation is, why we need it and we get a little science-y. You know how Paige loves to get into the neuroscience of it all. Not only is co-regulation an evolutionary skill, but it’s an integral part in our children being able to learn how to regulate their emotions on their own someday. Tune in to learn more about how we use our own emotions to support the emotions of our children.

This week we’d like to extend a very warm welcome to Gina Prosch. Gina is an award-winning children’s book author. Her new book Hope! More Than Wishful Thinking [Boys Town Press, March 11th 2024] is the second in the Holly’s Choice series and teaches kids that while it is important to have hope, wishful thinking alone is not enough to help us achieve our goals. Together we’re going to cover topics including what inspired her book Hope! More Than Wishful Thinking, how can we teach our children to be active participants in positive emotions, how we can model positive emotions to our kids to help build their emotional resiliency,
