Ever found yourself asking, “Why do I keep yelling at my kids?” Or maybe, after a rough moment with your preteen, you’ve whispered to yourself, “I yelled at my child and feel horrible.” If that’s you—this episode is for you.

Today we’re talking about what’s really going on underneath those moments where you snap, shut down, or walk away in silence. (Spoiler: it’s not because you’re a bad mom.)

We’ll explore:

• Why your nervous system reacts the way it does when your preteen slams doors or argues about screen time
• The truth behind mom guilt and how it’s tied to generational patterns
• What to do when you feel stuck in survival mode
• How to begin breaking toxic parenting cycles—without needing to be perfect
• Why you’re not failing, even if you’re constantly Googling, “How do I stop feeling like a terrible mom?”

This isn’t just about tips. It’s about real understanding, compassion, and reclaiming your calm—so you can show up the way you want to. And no, that doesn’t mean being endlessly patient or never raising your voice. It means learning how to pause, respond, and care for yourself in the middle of it all.
