In this episode of the Complicated Kids Podcast, I’m joined by Penny Williams to explore how external stressors—like natural disasters—can heighten family stress and impact our kids' behavior. We dive into how staying mindful of our own responses and developing emotional resilience can make a big difference, especially when supporting children who need extra patience and understanding. This episode sheds light on practical strategies for self-regulation and helping kids feel more secure, even when life gets overwhelming.
