“Are You Mad At Me?”

There is another F word – no, not that one. It’s FAWN, the under-appreciated fourth companion of the well-known coping responses: fight, flight, and freeze. Fawning means people-pleasing, and it can be used for survival – truly! Listen to this fascinating conversation with psychotherapist Meg Josephson on how to recognize fawning, break the cycle, and replace it with other coping strategies. She helps all of us pause before asking the question: Are you mad at me? Show Notes: Watch the full episode on Youtube!

The Toddler Episode Every Parent Needs: Meltdowns, Big Feelings & Real-Life Scripts

If you’re in the thick of toddler life — the constant “no’s,” the hitting and biting, the screaming, refusing dinner or bath, rough transitions, and meltdown-after-meltdown — this episode is your new survival guide. We’re joined by Devon Kuntzman, toddler expert, parent coach, and founder of Transforming Toddlerhood, who specializes in helping parents navigate these exact moments with confidence and calm. Devon breaks down what’s normal, what’s developmentally appropriate, and gives you practical scripts for what to actually do in the moment. Annabel and Dale open up about their latest toddler meltdowns and struggles — the real, messy, everyday moments parents don’t always talk about — and Devon walks them through exactly how to handle each one. From big feelings and “why don’t they listen?” to staying calm during public meltdowns and the scripts that truly help, Devon makes sense of the chaos with tools you can use immediately. This is the episode every toddler parent needs. Follow Devon @transformingtoddlerhood and find her book Transforming Toddlerhood.

The Power of Secure Attachment

Secure attachment is a term that gets thrown around, but it’s often not clear what it means or why it matters! In fact, it’s a decades old psychological concept that points to the protective impact on a child’s lifelong wellbeing of having just one caring adult. Therapist and author of Raising Securely Attached Kids, Eli Harwood AKA the Attachment Nerd, joins the podcast to dissect the critical role of secure attachment on people’s development and explain ways to achieve it in our families.

“I booked a Boob Job”

In today’s episode, Dale opens up about something deeply personal, intentional, and years in the making: her upcoming breast augmentation in the new year. This isn’t a beauty-decision story; it’s an honesty story, a coming-home-to-yourself story, and a conversation about doing something for you after years of your body being in service to pregnancy, breastfeeding, motherhood, and everyone else’s needs. Dale shares why she chose to move forward now, how she knew she was truly ready, and the clarity she needed around whether or not she was done having kids. She talks about what it was like to tell her husband, how she brought him into the process, and how she approached telling her parents. She also explains why she decided to be transparent on social media and how sharing her truth was core to her. Dale walks through her entire process of finding the right doctor, from the research to the consultations to choosing the surgeon who felt aligned, and she opens up about the financial side as well, including what she’s paying and the considerations behind that decision. This episode is raw, grounded, and meant to take the shame and secrecy out of a topic so many women quietly think about. It’s a reminder that you are more than a mom and you’re allowed to make choices that honor the woman inside the mother.
