    Episode 441: Self Regulation for Children
    May 2 2025
    Can your child's emotional meltdowns actually be opportunities for powerful connection and growth? In this insightful episode, Dr. Kahlila Robinson and Sarah Gerstenzang join Rebecca to discuss their upcoming book, "The Self-Regulation Workbook for Children Ages 5 to 8." They share practical strategies for helping children manage their emotions while strengthening the parent-child connection. Drawing from both professional expertise and personal parenting experiences, they offer compassionate advice for parents feeling overwhelmed by their children's big emotions and provide actionable tools that families can use immediately. Key Takeaways: → Co-regulation is foundational to self-regulation: Children learn to manage their emotions through their parents' calm, supportive presence during moments of distress, starting from infancy. → Parents must regulate themselves first: To help children with emotional regulation, parents need strategies to stay calm during challenging moments. Setting this foundation consistently over time is more effective than quick fixes. → The 5-8 age group is uniquely challenging: These children appear more capable but still lack problem-solving skills and emotional perspective, creating a gap between expectations and abilities. → Playfulness is powerful: Even just 5 minutes of play builds connection, which motivates children to maintain or return to regulated states when emotions run high. → Repair is essential: When parents make mistakes (we all do!), acknowledging them and discussing them later creates valuable learning opportunities and models healthy emotional management. Quotes from the Guests: "Any parent is capable of this. If you're worried about doing this right, you're already in a good place because it means you're thinking about it. You care about supporting your child." - Dr. Kahlila Robinson "Children five to eight, they're pretty young still, and they really need their parents. It's very important that the parents have a certain comfort and mindset around helping their children regulate." - Sarah Gerstenzang The Self-Regulation Workbook for Children Ages 5 to 8 Available April 15, 2025 on Amazon and select bookstores Publisher: Ulysses Press Learn more about your ad choices.

  • Episode 440: Spring Break 2025 with Lillie

    Episode 440: Spring Break 2025 with Lillie
    Apr 30 2025
    When your spouse handles all the travel planning, how do you suddenly navigate airports and ride-sharing apps on your own? In this heartfelt and humorous episode, Rebecca Greene shares her spring break adventures with her daughter, Lillie, in Orlando, while reflecting on how family vacations evolve as children grow older. After a family trip to Ithaca for her son Max's Cornell acceptance weekend, Rebecca and Lillie embarked on their mother-daughter Disney adventure, while her husband, Seth, stayed home with their older children. Key Takeaways: → Parents shouldn't feel obligated to make vacations democratic - it's okay to make executive decisions about family trips → One-on-one trips with individual children create special bonding experiences that aren't possible in larger family groups → As children grow older, family members develop different vacation preferences that may require flexible arrangements → It's important to learn all travel skills rather than relying completely on your partner - from airport navigation to using ride-sharing apps → Being "present where your feet are" makes for more meaningful experiences with whoever you're with in the moment Notable Quotes from Rebecca: "I need to just enjoy whoever I'm with 100% and that's hugely different, because it used to be all of us together all the time." "Don't sit back and let your husband do things, because then you don't know how to do things. We gotta pay attention people."

  • Episode 439: 6 Steps to Fewer Days that Suck

    Episode 439: 6 Steps to Fewer Days that Suck
    Apr 25 2025
    Can changing your mindset actually lead to fewer days that suck? Deborah Mallow, known as "Your Ray of Sunshine," joins Rebecca Greene to share her transformative approach to positive thinking and mindset coaching. As the founder of the Daily Decisions Positive Energy Club and creator of the "6 Steps to Fewer Days that Suck," Deborah reveals practical strategies that can help anyone reduce stress, break negative habits, and find more joy in everyday life. In this uplifting conversation, Deborah explains how our brains naturally prioritize negative information (the "caveman brain negativity bias") and offers simple but powerful techniques to retrain our thinking. From giving yourself permission to be imperfect to flipping negative self-talk into positive affirmations, Deborah's compassionate approach helps listeners understand why 91% of what we worry about never happens and how we can focus our energy on what truly matters. Key Takeaways: → Give yourself permission to say "I am enough" and "I do my best" instead of being overly self-critical - this simple mindset shift can transform your daily happiness. → Our brains seek patterns and tend to prioritize negative information over positive; with practice, we can retrain our minds to focus on positive patterns instead. → Taking a pause before reacting to stressful situations helps break the "domino effect" on negative emotions and prevents regret later. → Procrastination creates unnecessary stress - breaking tasks into small, manageable steps and celebrating each completion builds momentum and confidence. → Instead of being jealous of others' achievements, be curious about what positive changes you can make in your own life and what opportunities might be around the corner. Quotes from Deborah: "Comfort zone isn't comfortable. The repetitive patterns we fall into might feel safe, but they're actually keeping us stuck and preventing growth." "We cause ourselves stress. It becomes a pattern that develops over time, and we need to give ourselves permission to stop it, to take a step back and not go there."
