このコンテンツについて

 Do you feel like you’ve tried everything — consequences, parenting books, well meaning parenting advice, crying out to God — and still feel like you’re failing?

Are you walking on eggshells, never knowing what will trigger your child’s next meltdown or shutdown?

Have you felt dismissed or judged by church culture when your child didn’t behave the way they “should”?

Do you find yourself yelling, shutting down, or spiraling with guilt — praying that tomorrow will be different?

I’m so glad you’re here. This podcast will help you regulate your emotions, reconnect with your child, and rebuild your confidence as a Christian mom — without losing control, feeling ashamed, or fixing everything.

You’ll learn how to show up with peace and presence, so you can parent without guilt and finally feel like yourself again.

Hey, I’m Amanda — a certified Christian life coach, mom of two neurodivergent kiddos, and former fix-it-all parenting researcher.

For years, I chased every method that promised quick change. I believed if I just found the right consequence, parenting strategy, or routine, I could turn things around. But the more I tried to control, the more disconnected we became.

Everything changed when I stopped parenting from fear and started anchoring in faith, emotional regulation, and connection. I let go of the pressure to fix behavior and began trusting God’s process — not just for my child, but for myself, too.

Now I help moms like you shift from survival mode into a grounded, grace-led way of being that transforms everything — without changing your child.

If you’re ready to parent beyond meltdowns — with tools that are rooted in faith, emotional stability, and connection — this podcast is for you.

If you’re tired of parenting advice that shames you or strategies that backfire with your neurodivergent child… you’re not alone.

Whether you’re raising a strong-willed kiddo, navigating sensory challenges, or questioning the parenting approach you were raised with… welcome.

Grab your favorite beverage, take a deep breath, and let’s walk this road together — one calm, connected step at a time.Copyright 2025 All rights reserved. キリスト教 スピリチュアリティ 人間関係 個人的成功 子育て 聖職・福音主義 自己啓発

    4 | How to Build Connection When Your Neurodivergent Child's Defiant Behavior is Out of Control
    2025/08/14

    If you’ve tried being the “nice mom” and the “strict mom” and neither has worked, you’re not alone.

    I used to think connection came after compliance—that once my child listened, obeyed, or calmed down, then we could connect. But I’ve learned the hard way that connection isn’t the reward…it’s the foundation. And without it, everything else falls apart.

    In this episode, I’m sharing my own journey of realizing that my son’s defiance wasn’t actually defiance—it was dysregulation. He was communicating the only way he knew how, and I was unintentionally making it harder for him to feel safe.

    I’ll walk you through four powerful, connection-centered shifts that have helped me rebuild trust with my neurodivergent child: focusing on safety over first-time obedience, getting curious instead of furious, repairing when there’s a rupture, and being the calm in the chaos.

    If you’re in the thick of power struggles, meltdowns, and constant pushback, this conversation will give you a fresh lens to see your child’s behavior differently—and remind you that building attachment isn’t about “fixing” them. It’s about becoming the kind of parent they can trust with their whole heart, even on the messy days.

    2 | What If the Problem Isn’t Your Child? 3 Questions to Examine Your Parenting Paradigm
    2025/08/06

    Have you ever felt like your child is the problem?

    Thinking if they would just behave, listen, or stop melting down, everything would be better? In this episode, we’re digging into a hard truth that can also set you free: your child isn’t the problem—and neither are you.

    I’ll share what I learned about the role my own emotions and nervous system were playing in my child’s behavior, and why emotional regulation is one of the most powerful tools we have as moms. You’ll walk away with simple, practical steps you can use to calm yourself in the middle of those hard moments so you can respond instead of react.

    If you’ve been stuck in constant power struggles and feel like nothing is working, this conversation will give you hope and help you start breaking the cycle.
