Here’s what a lot of experts are missing. And honestly, I was too when I was giving parenting advice instead of asking parents what was actually going on with them.

When transitions play out the same way over and over, our kids can begin to expect that same struggle. (Neuroscience) A meltdown can become part of that pattern, though it’s not the only reason transitions are hard.

You can put an amazing tool in there, and guess what? Your kiddo still might melt down.

That’s why we build bridges to help our children through transitions. But you guys, it’s not just that.

When your kid is still melting down and you feel like you’ve done everything right, it is so frustrating. You’re practicing all the patience in the world, and meanwhile, something might be coming up inside you, too. Oh because you’re apart of this equation too!!

Maybe it’s the anxiety of needing to be somewhere on time. Maybe it’s feeling like you’re doing all this work and nothing is changing.

Is any of this sounding familiar?

This takes slowing down, noticing our own responses, and supporting our regulation alongside our kids’. This is hard and takes so much intention.

Comment WAITLIST to be the first to access a different approach to transitions.

If you’ve tried everything, the tips and tricks aren’t enough anymore, and this is speaking to you, you’re in the right place.
