Have you ever thought: Why is this happening? What am I doing wrong? Why can’t I figure this out?

Or maybe the question that’s hardest to say out loud: Is there something wrong with my child… or with me?

You’re not alone—and you’re definitely not doing this wrong.

This episode is straight from my OT playbook—and my mama heart. I’m sharing the process I use with new clients to decode meltdowns, reframe behavior, and help parents finally feel like they have a map.

Inside this one, we’ll talk about:

• Why most “behavior problems” are actually sensory system messages
• How traditional approaches often miss the mark—and what to do instead
• What it really means to “observe with compassion”
• The difference between Seekers, Avoiders, Sensors, and Bystanders
• One powerful question to guide your next 24 hours

This isn’t about fixing. It’s about understanding—and giving yourself permission to slow down and see what’s really going on.

• (01:00) The moment I realized we were approaching behavior upside down
• (05:00) The truth about what your child’s “difficult” behavior might be saying
• (09:00) The four sensory processing styles (and why they matter)
• (13:00) Your micro shift: observe with curiosity, not control
• (16:00) You’re not behind—you’re just beginning
