 Parenting with Anxiety: From Chaos to Connection In this episode, we dive deep into the messy, beautiful reality of parenting with anxiety. Whether you're spiraling over breakfast meltdowns or catastrophizing every parenting decision, this conversation is for you. We explore how anxiety affects parenting, why your nervous system sees threats everywhere, and most importantly, how to stay present with your kids even when your brain is in overdrive. Through personal stories, science-backed strategies, and practical tools, we'll help you transform from reactive to responsive parenting. Remember: your anxiety doesn't disqualify you from being an amazing parent—it can actually become one of your superpowers.
