In this episode we talk about why parenting today feels harder than ever—and why it's less about discipline and more about emotional overload. Kids are exposed to adult information, conflict, fear, and stress long before they're emotionally ready, while parents are trying to keep up in the same nonstop digital world. This episode explains how too much information without emotional support can lead to anxiety and dysregulation for both children and parents. Instead of trying to block everything, we reframe parenting as helping slow things down, add context, and translate emotions so kids can safely understand what they're seeing. Through practical questions for parents, we focus on the core challenge of modern parenting: not just teaching children what to know, but helping them learn how to feel and regulate in an overwhelming world.
