Emotionally Intelligent Parenting with Stephanie Pinto Stephanie Pinto

What can we do when all the usual emotional regulation techniques and strategies fall short for our child? If you've wondered this, you're in the right place.
Alice is an ‘energy plumber’. She unblocks the blocks that people have when nothing else seems to 'work'. In this episode, she speaks about what happens when problems in the body, such as primitive (baby) reflexes don’t integrate into purposeful, functional behaviours. Behavioural challenges, disorganisation, learning difficulties and even anxiety (like with my own child!) can come up.
And so when all the usual “tools” don’t work – it can be life-changing to be open to taking another route. Alice was captured by kinesiology when her son was unhappy, angry, impulsive, yet very bright, within 5 sessions of kinesiology she had a “different child”.
Alice shared a powerful story about a client, a boy she worked with who after receiving kinesiology with her, no longer needed a whole load of supports and plans at school to get through a day, his after-school meltdowns reduced significantly, and he was no longer stuck in a pattern of strict organisation in his bedroom (a coping mechanism of anxiety).
I hope you enjoy this episode and if you’re wondering whether kinesiology might help you and your child, please get in touch with Alice, here are her links:

Kelly Wiseman is the founder of Autisic Gem, an Aussie-based business that support neurodivergent families to go from surviving to thriving. We spoke about parenting as an ND mum, supporting multiple ND kids (in her own home and her clients), tips and tricks to help their executive function challenges and parenting each child in front of you as the individual they are. So much going on in this conversation, I absolutely loved it. Kelly is full of heart and a wealth of information and insight into ND families.Find her work and get in touch here:https://www.autisticgem.au https://www.facebook.com/AutisticGEM https://www.instagram.com/autisticgemau/

Becoming 'triggered' simply means your emotions have gotten the better of you. Ok, yes that's a tad simplistic. But my logic is that the tools that emotional intelligence give you the capacity to overcome those reactive, knee-jerk moments, and instead come from a place of calm, confidence and conviction. I mentioned my upcoming Taming Your Triggers Masterclass in this episode, live on Zoom during March 2024. If you want to check out the details and grab a ticket, head to bit.ly/3TqV7Sp or if you're listening to this after March, head to my website to find it on my course page at https://www.stephaniepinto.com/coursesI'd love to see some of you there!

Stop doing everything for your kids! (I'm guilty too). Sometimes as parents we become overwhelmed and drained, as we do so much for our kids. Parenting is a full time job, right? Leslie Josel gets this - and she came on the podcast today to share what she knows works for parents and kids (esp those with ADHD as that's her jam).
Leslie Josel is the founder of Order Out Of Chaos, an award-winning business that supports parents and kids with executive function (planning, organising, time management) challenges. We spoke about why asking questions is the key to developing problem-solving skills, and the importance of NOT answering a "question" when one was really not asked! Also how to eliminate the annoying reminders we have to give our kids every day, and what to do instead. Find more of her work at:W: https://www.orderoochaos.com/
