26- Parenting A Child With Emotional Dysregulation—The Best Tool You’ll Find To Understand And Advocate For Their Needs-- With Holly Provan Calm Connection Parenting- Meltdowns, Emotional Dysregulation, Neurodivergent, ADHD, AUDHD, DMDD, Defiance, SPD podcast

Show Notes:

What if the anger, anxiety, or meltdowns you're seeing aren't choices—but signals from your child's brain desperately crying out for help?

In this episode, we're diving deep with Holly Provan, nurse, mom, and author of Poppy and the Overactive Amygdala. Holly sheds powerful new light on why some kids experience life as a constant battle, driven by a brain stuck in 'fight or flight' mode.

Get ready for a conversation that will transform frustration into compassion, and confusion into connection. It's time to decode your child's behaviors—starting now.

This is what you will learn in this episode:

Understanding the Amygdala—Discover why some children’s brains are wired for big emotions and intense reactions.
The Real Reason Behind Big Behaviors—Learn how to spot anxiety-driven behaviors masked as anger or defiance.
Empathy Changes Everything—Explore how empathy can transform your relationship with an emotionally intense child.
Practical Steps to Support Your Child—Gain insight into simple ways you can begin helping your child feel safer and more understood.
Advocating with Confidence—Find out how Holly’s approach can empower you to advocate effectively for your child’s unique needs at home and school.

Holly's book, Poppy and the Overactive Amygdala is available on Amazon. I highly recommend this book.
