In this episode, I’m taking you straight into the chaos of a real-life morning meltdown- mine that is.
The kids were wild, my patience was on life support, and with Matt away, my whole system tipped into survival mode. What followed was yelling, tears, slammed doors, and a big dose of “I cannot do this today.”

But underneath the mess was something real: a reminder that our kids aren’t the problem — our overloaded nervous systems are. And that repair, not perfection, is what actually shapes connection.

If you’ve ever had one of those mornings (you know the ones), this episode will make you feel a little less alone and a whole lot more human. Tune in for honesty, humour, and the reminder that messy mornings don’t define you or your relationship with your kids, how you come back together does.

In this episode, I talk about what's really happening beneath our children's big behaviours, and how we can respond from a place of steadiness instead of control.

We look at the nervous system, the family dynamics that get triggered, and the difference between tightening punishment and building relational resilience.

I share how we support Syd through these moments, and how you can come up with your own family game plan for when things get BIG.

In this episode, I'm sharing a few moments of what I've found hard in slowing down since our move up North - the messy, the uncomfortable, and the beautiful parts. We talk about the reality of learning how to slow down in relationship, in parenting, and within ourselves. Expect real stories, gentle reminders and invitations to wiggle.

Welcome to Baby, It's You! the parenting podcast about slowing down, shaking it out, and finding calm in the chaos of family life.

In this intro episode I'm pulling back the curtain: why I started this, who I am and what you can expect from each episode- real talk, big feels and moments that remind you you're not alone in this parenting ride.
