197. Handle Your Child’s Big Emotions (Without Losing It)

Lit AF Relationships podcast is your resource for creating healthy relationships full of love, trust, safety, and respect.

Gentle parenting. Conscious parenting. Attachment parenting. No matter your style, they all ask one thing: get comfortable with big emotions.

Easier said than done—especially if you grew up stuffing yours down.

In this episode, we talk about what really happens when your kid has a meltdown and your insecure attachment kicks in (hi, anxious fixers and avoidant silencers 👋). Spoiler: it’s about making your own emotions valid. This is big, beautiful, messy work.
