    28. Does Everyone Need Therapy?

    'Does everyone need therapy?'It's kind of like asking 'does everyone need deodorant'?Not strictly.BUT...Do you remember your last train ride on a summer day?Or that Uber trip? Or the customs line at the airport?Yechh...The sights, the sounds... the... smells.Body odor (and lack of deodorant!) in a small space is kind of like our emotional struggles and unresolved traumas.Both have an impact on the people around us, and we often don't even realize it!  The thing to remember is that therapy benefits everyone, not just people with severe trauma. And one of the best things we can do for our children is investing in our own mental health. By addressing our own issues, we create a healthier, more stable environment for our family to thrive in.Join me on this hot take to find out why, and learn what you can do about it.

    27. Why Your Parenting Style Isn’t Working Anymore

    I don't know about you, but I like to imagine parenting as a marathon, not a sprint ‍♀️But it's hard to think long-term when every day feels like a race to the finish line.It's like the parenting version Groundhog Day...…we roll into bed exhausted, disconnected, frustrated, and anxious because we KNOW we're only hours away from doing it all again So, here's a little secret…By making small changes to the way we parent each day, the wins start to rack up - fast.And in the process, we create a beautiful legacy for future generations.That's how you become a cycle breaker - by modelling a new way of parenting for your children, your grandchildren and beyond.So where do we start? A great place is learning how to fill your child's 'buckets'.This builds a solid foundation of love and understanding while preparing them to be amazing parents themselves one day.Unpack the buckets analogy with me to learn the 3 tools you can use to help your child feel 'ok', connected and respected (which leads to better behavior and greater emotional regulation!).Timestamps00:00 - Introduction00:19 - What are the buckets?04:45 - Being a cycle breaker05:23 - The source of resistance06:56 - The buckets: breakdown08:37 - The source of power struggles --Strong-willed child at home?

    26. My Teen's 3am Phone Obsession

    If you're battling your teenager over late-night phone sessions, you're not alone!In this episode, Heidi shares why phone and tech boundaries are especially tricky for strong-willed and neurodivergent kids (you know - the SPICY children who don't respond to 'traditional' parenting techniques ).Learn how to identify what's really driving their behavior and unpack strategies for compromise that work for everyone. Here's the question Heidi received for Q&A from a mom in the Prism Perspective community:"My 13-year-old SPICY child thinks she should be able to determine her bedtime, which would be anywhere up to 3am if I let her on school nights."When do we enforce a ‘phones off’ policy with a SPICY child?" --Strong-willed child at home?

    25. Self-compassion: that’s just self-pity, right?

    When we're trying to improve our emotional wellbeing, we usually focus on the present or the future. But what if the key to healing and feeling ‘whole’ is actually in our past? That's where reparenting comes in. Reparenting is about connecting with and caring for your inner child—the part of you that holds the memories and feelings from your early experiences. Sound a little ‘woo woo’... or… maybe super-interesting? Either way, this deep-dive coaching session with Leigh (one of our team members) will give you tonnes of insight into reparenting, understanding and practicing self-compassion, and breaking the glass of what we think we know about ourselves. --Strong-willed child at home?
