Why do we find it hard to hold space for kids' big emotions?

In this episode, I talk about why it's difficult for teachers and parents to sit with children's emotions. I also discuss how self regulation and understanding our beliefs about emotions, influence how we react to children when they express big emotions.  

Here's what you'll learn:

→ Why your own childhood experiences can make it difficult to handle your children's emotions

→ How understanding your reactions can help you co-regulate effectively with children.

→ How to become more comfortable with the full range of emotions

→The benefits of embracing, rather than suppressing difficult emotions, in educational and parenting. 

If you've ever found yourself struggling to maintain composure or felt overwhelmed by a child's emotional expression, this episode is for you.
