THIS WEEK IN MOMS
12/1- When the house is loud, the kids are calling your name, dinner’s burning, the dog is barking, and your brain is screaming “I can’t do this!” — that’s the moment emotional regulation matters most. In todays, MOMS we’ll talk about why moms get overwhelmed so quickly, what’s happening in your nervous system during those “everyone needs me” moments, and practical strategies you can use to stay calm, grounded, and in control.
12/2- As moms, we often feel the pressure to do it all perfectly—meals, schedules, school projects, playdates, and everything in between. But striving for perfection can lead to stress, guilt, and burnout. Today in MOMS we’ll explore the difference between perfectionism and “good enough” parenting. Together, we’ll discuss how to let go of unrealistic expectations, embrace flexibility, and celebrate the wins—big and small. Learn practical strategies to reduce pressure on yourself while still providing the love and guidance your children need.
12/3- Co-parenting can be challenging, especially when communication breaks down or conflicts arise. In MOMS today we’ll focus on building healthy, effective communication strategies with your co-parent. We’ll explore ways to stay calm, set boundaries, and keep your child’s best interests at the center. Whether you’re navigating disagreements, coordinating schedules, or managing blended family dynamics, these tools can help reduce stress and create a more cooperative parenting environment.
12/4- It’s natural for moms to feel deeply when their child is upset, anxious, or struggling—but sometimes those feelings can become overwhelming, leaving us emotionally drained or guilty. Today in MOMS we’ll explore how to support your child while maintaining your own emotional balance. We’ll talk about separating your child’s emotions from your own, recognizing triggers, and developing coping strategies that allow you to respond with empathy without losing yourself in the process.
12/5- Mornings, homework time, and unexpected meltdowns can quickly turn a peaceful household into a stressful environment. Today in MOMS we’ll focus on strategies for staying calm, grounded, and present—even when your child is frustrated or overwhelmed. We’ll explore practical tools to manage your own stress, respond effectively, and create smoother routines that reduce conflict for both you and your child.
