#206: How Understanding Your Nervous System Can Make You A Better Partner & Parent with Alyssa Blask Campbell

Understanding your nervous system is one of the most powerful tools you have for creating secure, connected relationships. But too often we approach it as a one-size-fits-all formula, rather than honouring the unique way our individual nervous systems work.

In this episode, I’m joined by parenting expert and author Alyssa Blask Campbell to explore how tuning into your nervous system can make you a better partner and parent. Alyssa shares insights from her work on emotional development in children and explains why knowing your own system is just as important for the adults in the room.

We talk about:

• Why nervous system awareness is the foundation of emotional intelligence
• How your unique nervous system traits shape your relationships and parenting
• Practical ways to move from reactivity to grounded presence
• How understanding your system allows you to show up with more compassion, patience, and connection

If you’ve ever felt like the standard advice on regulation doesn’t quite work for you, this conversation will give you permission to explore what does — so you can build stronger, more attuned relationships at home and beyond.
