概要

Ranked in the top 2.5% of podcasts globally! Tired of walking on eggshells… dreading the next meltdown? Exhausted by big emotions. defiance, and disobediance? Wondering why “traditional" parenting advice backfires with your strong-willed child?

I’m glad you’re here. This podcast helps you understand what’s behind your child's behavior, so you can respond with calm, stop second-guessing yourself, and build real connection with your neurodivergent or uniquely wired child.

Hi, I’m Jami… a mom of seven, professional counselor turned parenting coach, speaker, and author. And yes, even with training, I found myself stuck in the same cycle so many parents live in: meltdown… reaction… guilt… repeat. I was doing all the things that were “supposed” to work… but they didn’t.

Everything changed when I stopped treating behavior like the problem and started looking underneath it. When I learned to understand my child’s unique wiring (personality, sensory processing, executive functioning, and emotional needs), I finally had a roadmap. I didn’t need more tips… I needed clarity and a plan. And that clarity changed things.

If you’re ready to ditch the overwhelm and stop parenting in survival mode, you’re in the right place. We’ll talk meltdowns, emotional dysregulation, defiance, ADHD, DMDD, anxiety, and more… along with practical steps that help your family move from chaos to calm… one episode at a time.

So grab your coffee, find your quiet spot (if you have one), and let’s jump in.

  • How to Advocate Confidently for Your Child at School: IEPs, 504 Plans, and Accommodations

    How to Advocate Confidently for Your Child at School: IEPs, 504 Plans, and Accommodations
    2026/05/14

    How do you know when your child needs more support at school… and what do you do next?

    If your child is struggling with ADHD, emotional dysregulation, anxiety, executive functioning challenges, school refusal, shutdowns, overwhelm, or after-school meltdowns, navigating IEPs and 504 plans can feel confusing and intimidating.

    In this episode of the Calm Connection Parenting Podcast, I’m joined by Elyse Scheeler, a licensed speech-language pathologist who has served on IEP teams for over 12 years. Together, we discuss what parents need to know about school support, how emotionally intense and neurodivergent kids are often misunderstood, and how to advocate for your child with more clarity and confidence.

    In this episode, we discuss:

    • The difference between an IEP and a 504 plan
    • Signs your child may need additional support at school
    • What to do when the school says your child is “doing fine” but you know they’re struggling
    • What schools may unintentionally overlook in ADHD and emotionally dysregulated kids
    • What parents should begin documenting before meetings
    • How to advocate without feeling like “that parent”

    Quick Win:
    Start tracking patterns instead of just behaviors. Notice when your child seems most overwhelmed, emotional, resistant, or exhausted around school. Curiosity often gives us better answers than correction.

    Encouragement for Parents:
    You are not overreacting by asking questions. Advocacy begins with understanding.

  • Is Your Child Struggling at School… or Is Something Being Missed? Emotional Dysregulation, DMDD, ADHD, and the Signs Often Overlooked

    Is Your Child Struggling at School… or Is Something Being Missed? Emotional Dysregulation, DMDD, ADHD, and the Signs Often Overlooked
    2026/05/06

    Why is your child struggling at school? Learn what may be happening beneath ADHD behaviors, DMDD, emotional dysregulation, school refusal, shutdowns, executive functioning challenges, and after-school meltdowns.

    Is your child struggling at school… or is something important being missed?

    If your child is melting down after school, refusing homework, shutting down in class, struggling with focus, or constantly being labeled as “lazy,” “defiant,” or “not trying,” this episode is for you.

    In this episode of the Calm Connection Parenting Podcast, we’re talking about what may really be happening beneath school struggles, emotional dysregulation, ADHD behaviors, executive functioning challenges, anxiety, sensory overload, and after-school meltdowns.

    Because many emotionally intense, neurodivergent, ADHD, and highly sensitive kids are working incredibly hard just to make it through the school day… and the behaviors we see afterward may be the overflow of overwhelm, stress, and nervous system exhaustion.

    If you’ve ever wondered:

    “Why does my child fall apart after school?”
    “Why does the teacher say they’re fine, but home is so hard?”
    “Are they refusing… or are they overwhelmed?”
    “Is my child struggling… or is something being missed?”

    This episode will help you begin looking beneath the behavior with more clarity and curiosity.

    ✨ In this episode, we discuss:

    • Why emotionally dysregulated or neurodivergent kids often “hold it together” at school and melt down at home
    • The hidden role of anxiety, sensory processing, executive functioning, overwhelm, and emotional exhaustion
    • Why behaviors like refusal, avoidance, distraction, shutdowns, and resistance are often misunderstood
    • The powerful shift from asking “How do I stop this behavior?” to “What is this behavior trying to tell me?”
    • How to become a student of your child and start noticing patterns that matter
    • Why connection and curiosity are essential before correction
    • What parents can begin doing now before pursuing an IEP or 504 plan
