Your go-to podcast for busy moms to go from CHAOS 👉 CLARITY with PARENTING SYSTEMS to 🧭 NAVIGATE DAILY CHAOS!
Are you a busy mom who feels like you’re driving in circles—busy, exhausted, and wondering if you’re even going in the right direction. One minute you’re navigating homework battles, meltdowns (even from teenagers), and mountains of laundry… and the next, you’re asking yourself, “Am I doing any of this right?” Do you feel like parenting your kids is getting more complicated with more unexpected twists and turns as they keep getting older?
Hi, I’m Mandy —mom of three, former teacher, and habits coach—and I get it. I used to feel like I was doing everything wrong as a mom, constantly reacting to chaos instead of feeling confident in my choices. Then I realized…when I felt calm and connected as a mom - and confident in how I navigated the complications, I had a method.
That’s why I created and knew I had to share my MAP Method—your compass for motherhood. It helps you move from overwhelmed and reactive to calm and confident by guiding you through the mindset (Mentor), systems (Maker), and rhythms that make family life work.
On Map Your Mom Brain, you’ll learn how to:
*Navigate real parenting struggles—from homework battles and sibling fights to friendship drama and technology overwhelm
*Get your kids to listen without lecturing or nagging
*Build family rhythms and planning systems that actually stick
*Teach your kids values and skills that last—without losing your own peace in the process
Motherhood can feel like a road trip without a map — but you don’t have to drive in circles anymore. Think of this podcast as your weekly pit stop...a place to refuel, reset, and find your direction again. So hop in, grab your compass, and let’s roadtrip together!

EP 13 What to Say When Your Kids Melt Down or Teens Shut Down at Holiday Parties
Holiday parties can bring out the biggest emotions — meltdowns from younger kids and total shutdowns from teens — right when everyone is watching.
In this episode, I’m sharing a 30-second, repeatable MAP tool you can use in the moment, plus simple ways to set expectations before the party so you’re not reacting in chaos.
You’ll learn:
What to say when kids melt down or teens shut down in front of others
How to prep kids and teens before gatherings to reduce power struggles
A calm, firm, and kind script you can use anywhere — without yelling or negotiating
How to let the Mentor lead instead of the stressed-out Maker
This works for toddlers through teens — at holiday parties, family dinners, or anytime emotions run high.
Email and let me know what tips and strategies are helping you!
