82: So You Lost Your Sh*t. Now Learn the Real Way to Repair (and Teach Your Kids How To) with Emotional Intelligence.

Messing up as a parent: It’s not IF, it’s WHEN. 😅

Trust me, even I mess up and I speak on Emotional Intelligence daily, I run conferences on it, I have courses and a book on it... so let me give you permission to lose your cool too!!

However - we DO need to talk about the messy, completely normal experience of losing your cool, whether it’s yelling at the kids, snapping at your partner, or going quiet and shutting down. Especially what to do AFTER the blow-up, and how to handle it with your kids.

Because emotional intelligence isn’t about being calm all the time. It’s about learning how to repair, reconnect, and actually teach our kids to do the same.

I talk about:

💥 Why it’s 100% human to lose your cool sometimes

🧠 What’s going on in your brain and body when you snap or shut down

❤️ How to do a proper repair (not just a quick “sorry”)

🧒🏼 How to TEACH your kids to repair when they muck up too

😶 And what to do if you’re someone who goes quiet after conflict

If you’ve ever ended the day thinking, “Ugh, why did I do that…”, this one’s for you.

Let’s normalise the mess-ups and get really good at the bounce-back. 💛 Steph.
