Does it feel like helping your child means changing everything—all at once?

Maybe you're overwhelmed by all the tools, the routines, the “you shoulds.” But what if it didn’t have to be that way?

What if one tiny shift could actually help both of you feel more regulated, more grounded, and way less stressed?

In this episode, we’re talking about the power of micro shifts—small, doable changes that can make a big impact on your child’s sensory experience and your family’s day-to-day life. You’ll hear the story of a little girl who struggled with clothing due to tactile defensiveness—and how one 3-minute strategy changed everything.

We’ll cover:

• Why big transformations actually start with tiny changes
• What “tactile defensiveness” is and how it shows up in daily routines
• How deep pressure and “heavy work” can be game-changers
• Why your nervous system matters too (and how to support it!)
• How to stack new habits onto things you’re already doing

This episode is your gentle nudge to start small—because consistency beats complexity every time.
