Parenting Beyond Meltdowns is Ranked in the Top 3% of Podcasts Worldwide!
Do relentless meltdowns and defiant behavior ever make you quietly question yourself?
Have you wondered if parenting your strong-willed or neurodivergent child means you’re somehow behind?
Do you love your child deeply but still feel stretched by their behavior.
Wish you could stay anchored in peace instead of spiraling in doubt after a hard day?
Mama, this episode is for you.
In this episode, we’re stepping away from strategy and into identity. If you’re parenting through meltdowns, dysregulated moments, and defiant behavior especially while raising a strong-willed or neurodivergent child it’s easy to let outcomes shape how you see yourself. We talk about emotional regulation, building connection, and what it means to be a present parent in the middle of ADHD, ASD, PDA, ODD, and other challenges that impact present parenting. You’ll be reminded that your child’s dysregulation is not a verdict on your worth. This episode speaks life over the mama who feels tired but still shows up. Peace is not found in perfection it’s found in anchoring your identity in Christ.
Faith Anchor:
“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” — Numbers 6:24–26 (ESV)
Even in the middle of meltdowns and defiant behavior, God’s peace is not withheld from you. It is spoken over you.
Challenge of the Week:
Instead of evaluating your parenting performance this week, look for one moment of growth. One pause. One repair. One steady response. Place your hand over your heart and pray, “Father, remind me who I am in You.” Let peace lead instead of pressure.
