Feeling like you’re always one scream away from a meltdown? In today’s episode, I’m sharing my go-to 2-minute reset when things spiral into chaos at home — and I’m on the edge of losing it.
This isn’t about perfection. It’s about connection. I’ll walk you through what I do in the moment, how I’ve taught it to my kids, and why it works (even if it feels weird at first).
You’ll hear:
Real moments from my chaotic mom life (3 kids, laundry, meltdowns… all at once)
How yelling makes everything worse (and what I do instead)
Our reset rituals: breathing, hugging, naming emotions, and even asking for space
Why these tiny pauses build trust, resilience, and lasting calm
✨ PLUS: A journal prompt to explore how you move from chaos to connection.
