Parenting can feel like a sinking ship — especially when tantrums and big emotions take over. In this episode, I chat with Dr. Rhona Stallard about how understanding our own emotions, setting boundaries and practising self-regulation can transform the way we support our children.

We share practical strategies for managing behaviour, creating safe spaces for feelings and why “good enough” parenting really is enough.

• Managing behaviour starts with our own self-regulation.

• Boundaries matter — but so does flexibility.

• Children learn most through what we model.

• Community makes the hard days easier.
