EP:155 Hey y’all, it’s Dr. B! In this episode, I’m getting real about the rollercoaster of emotions and sensory overload that comes with the back-to-school transition—for both our kids and ourselves. I share my own journey as a parent, from craving structure to embracing the beautiful chaos of summer, and how I’ve learned to support my children (and myself) through big changes. We dive into why our brains crave routine, how to spot sensory struggles in your kids, and practical ways to create a sensory safe zone at home and advocate for one at school. I also talk about prepping for smoother mornings, building in calming rituals, and the power of repair and self-compassion when things don’t go as planned. Remember, it’s okay to give yourself grace—these first few weeks are all about support, not perfection.

If you found this episode helpful, please share it with a fellow parent, leave a review, and let me know your favorite back-to-school tip! Let’s make this school year a little smoother, together.

EP:153 Hey Thrive Community!

In this episode of the Thrive Like a Parent Podcast, I’m taking you behind the scenes of my unforgettable road trip with Carter. From spontaneous adventures through Santa Fe, Taos, Estes Park, and Crested Butte, to hiking breathtaking trails and even buying my dream vintage 1979 Ford Bronco (hello, Sally Joy Ride!), this journey was all about stepping out of my comfort zone, reconnecting with nature, and finding new ways to regulate and recharge.

I open up about the challenges and joys of traveling without a set itinerary, the magic of seeing wildlife in the Rockies, and the importance of making space for adventure and healing—especially as a solo parent, business owner, and someone on a lifelong journey of growth. Plus, I share how these experiences brought Carter and me closer, and why it’s so vital to pause, reflect, and truly enjoy the ride.

If you want the full itinerary of our road trip—where we ate, stayed, and explored—drop a comment or sign up for my newsletter! Let’s keep thriving together.

EP:149 In this powerful episode of Thrive Like a Parent Podcast, I sit down with my incredible friend Lauren Buongiorno, founder of Risely Health and a type one diabetes warrior.

We dive deep into her personal story - from being diagnosed at seven to navigating collegiate sports, motherhood, and building a revolutionary health coaching company. Lauren breaks down the misconception that diabetes is just about math and insulin, revealing it's a holistic experience involving 42 different factors that impact blood sugar.

EP:148 Hey there! In this episode, I'm getting real about the challenges of being a mom, managing family expectations, and learning to prioritize myself. My son Eli's baseball journey threw me into a whirlwind of decisions this summer. I had to choose between a family vacation and supporting his All-Stars team, which wasn't easy.

I'm sharing my raw experience of feeling pulled between family demands, my children's needs, and my own mental health. Those moments of people-pleasing? I've been there, and I'm done with letting others' opinions dictate my choices. This episode is all about the courage it takes to set boundaries, make tough decisions, and stay true to yourself.

I'll walk you through how I navigated this crazy month - from juggling my in-laws' visit, a quick family trip, Eli's tournament, and camp preparations. It's a vulnerable look at how I'm learning to regulate my emotions, make decisions that serve me and my family, and stop trying to make everyone else happy at my own expense.

And bonus? I'm introducing our new Regulation Reset Collective and our first mini-course on people-pleasing. Trust me, you don't want to miss this conversation about reclaiming your power and living authentically. Let's do this!
