  • S1E3: The 3 A.M. Wake-Up Call – When Exhaustion Is a Lifestyle
    2025/06/15

    You know that bone-deep tiredness that no nap can fix? In this episode, we’re naming it: the kind of exhaustion that comes from living in a state of chronic caregiving and emotional vigilance. We talk about the toll it takes—not just on your body, but on your mind, relationships, and sense of self. Using research, real-life stories, and grounded metaphors, we gently unpack what’s happening under the surface when rest feels impossible, and offer compassionate steps for honoring your limits without shame.

  • S1E2: Surviving the Storm - What Co-Regulation Actually Takes
    2025/06/08

    When your child is melting down—again—and you’re barely holding it together, what does it really mean to co-regulate? In this episode, we go beyond the buzzword to explore the emotional stamina, nervous system work, and compassionate presence required to stay connected when things fall apart. Through story, metaphor, and practical insights, we unpack the real cost of co-regulation—and why it’s worth it. You'll hear how small, steady practices can build resilience in both you and your child, even when you're running on empty.
