    Episode 92 - Screen Time and Kids: What Parents Need to Know with Emily Cherkin

    Screen time is everywhere, and for many families, it feels impossible to manage. But the issue isn’t just how much time kids spend on screens, it’s what that time is replacing, and how it’s shaping their development. In this episode, I’m joined by screen time consultant and educator Emily Cherkin to unpack how screens impact children’s brains, behaviour, and relationships. We talk about what actually works for families, how to set realistic boundaries, and why connection (not control) is the foundation of healthy tech use. Emily and I talk about: What “tech intentionality” means and how to apply it in everyday parenting• Why “later is better” and “less is more” are key principles for screen use• How screen time displaces critical developmental experiences like play and connection• Why boredom, discomfort, and frustration are essential for building resilience• The three questions to ask before giving your child a screen• Why strong relationships matter more than strict screen limits• Practical ways to delay smartphones and social media access• How to navigate peer pressure and FOMO around devices• A simple strategy for sharing a phone to build trust and accountability• What to do if your child is already reliant on screens• Why many parents regret introducing screens early, but not delaying them• Key questions to ask schools about tech use in the classroom Emily Cherkin is a former teacher, screen time consultant, and parent educator who helps families and schools navigate technology in a more intentional, developmentally appropriate way. Known as “The Screentime Consultant,” she is an author, speaker, and advocate focused on reducing the harms of excessive screen use and rethinking how technology is used in education. Emily is the author of The Screentime Solution and has been featured in major outlets including The New York Times, NPR, and Good Morning America.

    Episode 91 - Motherhood Burnout: Why You’re Exhausted & How to Recover

    Motherhood was never meant to be a done alone. That leads to exhaustion, overwhelm, resentment and being snappy. At least that was my experience.  In this episode, I am joined by the founder of the Brain Health Movement Lucia Silver. Lucia is interviewing me!  We explore what’s really happening beneath maternal burnout, from nutrient depletion and nervous system dysregulation to cultural conditioning and the invisible weight of the supermom myth. I also share my personal journey as a burnt-out new mother, and the paradigm shift that reshaped my life and work.  Lucia and I chat about:  Why burnout has become normalized in modern motherhood The powerful feedback loop between maternal overwhelm and child dysregulation How small micro-shifts can restore resilience Why self-care is not a luxury, but a biological necessity How to begin reclaiming your energy without adding more to your to-do list   Lucia Silver is the founder of The Brain Health Movement and the mother behind “The Mighty Quinn.” An Oxford scholar and award-winning entrepreneur, Lucia is now leading a parent-powered mission to re-educate families on the true root causes of childhood struggles.

    Episode 90 - Raising a Child with Congenital Heart Defects with Nurse Practitioner and Heart Mom Sarah Boes

    In this episode of Wild & Well, I sit down with Sarah Michelle Bose – nurse practitioner, entrepreneur, heart mom, and mental health advocate – to talk about her extraordinary journey navigating the entrepreneurship, becoming a heart mom, mental health challenges, and advocacy work. From experiencing panic attacks as a nursing student to building a million-dollar Nurse Practitioner test prep business during COVID, Sarah shares the highs, the lows, and the lessons learned along the way. We also dive into her personal story as a mother to Meadow, a child born with a severe congenital heart defect, and how that journey led her to advocacy work, including legislative efforts, community initiatives, and children’s book creation. Sarah and I chat about: Sarah’s path from nursing student to nurse practitioner to successful entrepreneur. How she built a business centered on exam day anxiety and community support that grew from $0 to $1M in under a year. Insights into starting a business: why just starting is more important than perfecting your plan. The emotional and logistical realities of parenting a child with tetralogy of Fallot, including navigating multiple heart surgeries and complex medical care. Coping strategies for parents facing medical uncertainty, including recognizing your role as the expert on your child and learning to sit with grief and discomfort. Sarah’s journey with an OCD diagnosis, and the tools and mindsets she used to manage uncertainty and practice self-compassion. How she became a leading advocate for congenital heart disease, including Hill Days, Heart Walks, and creating children’s books to raise awareness. Her vision for the future of heart defect care: less invasive surgeries, increased research, and stronger advocacy networks. Sarah Michelle Boes is a nurse practitioner–turned entrepreneur, heart mom, and mental health advocate. She built and sold a multimillion-dollar NP board review business and now channels her expertise and lived experience to support families navigating congenital heart disease. Through advocacy, public speaking, and education, Sarah empowers others to face life’s challenges with courage and compassion.

    Episode 89 - Understanding picky eating: A psychological perspective

    Picky eating can be frustrating (and exhausting) for parents, but there's often so much more beneath the surface than simply a child being "fussy."  In this episode, I explore some of the psychological factors that can contribute to and maintain selective eating in children.  I chat about:  Why it’s not just psychological – how behavioral, physiological, and environmental factors also play a role How a child’s sense of calm and safety at mealtimes can directly affect their willingness to eat The impact of a parent’s stress and nervous system on a child’s appetite and digestion Why it’s so important to prioritize your connection with your child over the food on their plate The importance of understanding your role as the provider of food and knowing what your child’s role is too  Why pressure, rewards, and labels (like “picky eater”) can actually make things harder How your own eating behaviors and attitudes around food shape your child’s approach to eating If you’ve ever wondered why your child is so selective or how to shift the dynamic at mealtimes without pressure or power struggles, this episode is for you.

    Episode 88 - Why Mental Fitness Matters for Children with founder of Mindfully Natalie Von Teichman

    What if we treated mental health the same way we treat physical fitness? In this episode, we explore the concept of mental fitness and why proactively building emotional strength, regulation, and resilience is one of the most important gifts we can give our children. My guest, Natalie von Teichman, children’s mental fitness coach and founder of Mindfully, shares how mental fitness helps children develop the skills they need before stress, anxiety, and emotional overwhelm show up. Together, we discuss why simply telling kids to “calm down” doesn’t work, how breathing and co-regulation support nervous system regulation, and why allowing children to experience manageable discomfort actually builds resilience. Natalie and I chat about: What mental fitness is and how it differs from mental health Why kids need to practice emotional regulation before big feelings arise How breathing supports the nervous system and emotional regulation The power of role modelling (and why perfection isn’t required) Why naming emotions is only the first step and what comes next  How imagination, play, and storytelling strengthen emotional resilience Ways to support children’s mental fitness in a digital world Natalie von Teichman is a children’s mental fitness coach, mindfulness educator, mom of four, and the founder of Miindfully, the brand behind the world’s first meditation stuffie for kids (a multisensory, screen-free tool designed to support emotional regulation, sleep, and resilience through play). With a background in health science, mindfulness education, and pediatric mental wellness, Natalie’s work focuses on helping children build mental agility, emotional regulation, and self-compassion using evidence-informed, developmentally appropriate strategies. Her approach integrates breath regulation, cognitive processes, role-play, and neuroscience-based mindfulness practices.

    In this episode, I am joined by clinical psychologist, yoga instructor, and meditation teacher Dr Kaitlin Harkess to explore how somatic practices, nervous system regulation, and body awareness can support mental health, especially anxiety and overwhelm.

In this episode, I’m joined by psychologist, motherhood coach, and author Dr Angele Close to explore motherhood, self-compassion, and what it really takes to move out of exhaustion and overwhelm in motherhood. Dr. Angele shares how her own journey through motherhood - and the profound challenges of matrescence, led her to shift her work toward supporting mothers’ mental and emotional wellbeing. Together, we explore how unhealed childhood patterns, cultural expectations of “good motherhood,” and internalized perfectionism can leave mothers feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, and disconnected from themselves. We discuss Internal Family Systems (IFS) and parts work, which provide a compassionate approach that supports mothers in understanding their inner world, easing self-criticism, and responding more calmly and authentically in parenting.   Dr Angele and I chat about:  What matrescence is and why it’s such a vulnerable, transformative time How cultural myths of “good motherhood” shape our inner critic and perfectionism What parts work and Internal Family Systems are (and why they’re so helpful for moms) Common “mom parts” like the perfectionist, inner critic, worrier, and mama bear How to respond more calmly to your child’s big emotions by doing your own inner work What it really means to break generational cycles How self-compassion and reparenting support both mothers and children Practical ways to begin parts work, even with limited time This episode is an invitation to move out of survival mode, reconnect with your inner wisdom, and become more self-led in motherhood. Dr Angele Close is a psychologist, motherhood coach, and author with nearly 20 years of clinical experience. Her work centers on supporting mothers in moving out of exhaustion, depletion, and overwhelm, and reclaiming a healthy, thriving identity in motherhood. Her approach is shaped not only by professional training, but by her own lived experience navigating the challenges of early motherhood. Dr Angele specializes in maternal mental health, Internal Family Systems, and cycle-breaking work for mothers. Her book, Unburdening Motherhood: A Guide to Breaking Cycles, Healing Trauma, and Becoming a Self-Led Mom, offers practical tools, reflections, and guided practices to support mothers in deep inner healing.

    Episode 85 - Why Your Child Is a Picky Eater (And What to Do About It)

    Have you ever found yourself holding your breath at the dinner table? Watching what your child will (or won’t) eat. Worried that your child is a picky eater.  Counting bites. Wondering if you’re doing something wrong. Mealtimes can quietly become one of the most stressful parts of parenting, especially when selective or “picky” eating enters the picture. But what if it’s not just about the food? When we zoom out, we see that eating is connected to emotional safety, nervous system regulation, sensory processing, modelling, and the overall parent–child relationship. Pressure, praise, rewards, and even our own food hang-ups can unintentionally make things harder. The good news? There are practical, compassionate ways to shift the dynamic. This is what we discuss in this episode. This episode is a little different as dietitian Atheana Brown is the one asking the questions and I am answering.  Atheana and I chat about:  Why labeling kids as “picky eaters” can reinforce the behaviour The powerful role of parental modelling and nervous system regulation at mealtimes How pressure, praise, rewards, and punishment can backfire The importance of prioritizing connection over control at the table When selective eating may signal something deeper (sensory challenges, tongue ties, gut health, nutritional deficiencies, ARFID, growth concerns) Red flags that may indicate it’s time to seek professional support Practical ways to reduce stress around food and strengthen your relationship with your child If you’re feeling stuck, stressed, or overwhelmed by your child’s eating, this episode might just get you looking at it from a fresh perspective.  You don’t have to stay stuck and neither does your child.   Episode Links: Say hi to Atheana on Instagram  Listen to Diet Culture Dropout podcast   Come say hi to me on Instagram   Helpful Articles: Read my articles on wellness, motherhood, picky eating, and thriving as a mom.
