    363: Beyond Meltdowns: How the Double Empathy Problem Changes Parenting Forever

    Ever catch yourself thinking, “Why is my kid the one who never listens, melts down in public, and acts like the rules don’t apply?” (Meanwhile, every other kid at the park seems to be happily eating carrots and saying “yes, Mom.”) If you're constantly exhausted from power struggles, frustrated by the defiance, and feeling like nothing you try ever works—this episode is for you. We’re diving into a completely different way of looking at so-called “difficult” behavior, one that might make you realize your child isn’t trying to be a problem… they’re actually wired differently. Enter the double empathy problem—a concept that could shift how you understand your kid, how you respond to them, and how peaceful your days feel. This isn’t about letting go of structure. It’s about building connection, reducing the chaos, and finally feeling like you and your child are on the same team.  Give it a listen—you might just stop dreading bedtime tonight.

    Ever look at your teen and think, “Did I really carry you for nine months just so you could stare blankly at your laptop and tell me school is ‘pointless’?” We feel you, mama. If your teen seems more motivated to scroll TikTok than turn in homework, and your every attempt to help is met with eye rolls, sighs, and a “whatever,” this episode is your new sanity-saver. We’re talking to Jenny Anderson, award-winning journalist, and Rebecca Winthrop, education expert and Brookings brainiac. They literally wrote the book on this—The Disengaged Teen—and they’re here to explain why your teen might be stuck in “passenger mode” and how you can help them shift gears without turning into a full-time homework warden. You’ll learn about the 4 modes of teen engagement (spoiler: none of them involve “enthusiastically completing chores”) and get real-life strategies that actually work—no nagging required. Get ready to laugh, nod, and maybe even cry a little. Most of all, feel reassured: you’re not failing. You’re just parenting a teenager. 👉 Hit play now—your parenting pep talk awaits.

    359: The Let Them Theory: Parenting Edition!

    Are you that parent who can't stop micromanaging every little thing your child does? Do you find yourself having daily battles over what they wear, eat, or how they choose to style their hair? (We see you, and we've been there too!) In this episode, we break down Mel Robbins' "Let Them Theory" - allowing kids to have their reactions while managing our own responses. Sometimes you just have to "Let them have their feelings"! We discuss when control is necessary (safety first!) and when to ease up (food choices, bedtime). Through personal stories, we show how being guides rather than dictators helps children develop agency and learn from experience. Don't miss our special 5-day challenge to help you implement the "Let Them Theory" in your everyday parenting!

    358: 3 Reasons It Isn't Your Fault When You're Afraid to Pursue Your Dreams (& how to overcome it) with Abbi Miller

    Ever wonder why you keep pushing your big dreams to the back burner? What if fear isn't actually stopping you, but is actually a sign you're on the right path? Join Holistic Biz Strategist, Speaker, and WorkWomb™ Founder Abbi Miller as she shares her transformative journey of pursuing bold adventures—from being a professional actress and international travel entrepreneur to helping creative women scale their businesses without burning out. Abbi reveals that fear is a natural part of pursuing big dreams, and waiting for that fear to disappear means missing out on life's most exciting opportunities. Drawing from her own experiences—like conquering her shark phobia by surfing and launching international teen travel programs in her early twenties—she encourages women to feel the fear and move forward anyway. The episode explores how women often struggle with imposter syndrome and the belief that they need to do everything alone. Abbi advocates for building a supportive community, hiring help, and recognizing that discomfort often signals you're honoring your true path. Her message is clear: your unique vision is worth pursuing, even when it feels scary or unconventional. Listeners will walk away inspired to let their "freak flag fly," embrace their innovative ideas, and understand that the most remarkable journeys begin with taking that first courageous step—fear and all.
