For the past few years, I've taught nervous system tools to moms from my quiet home office.

This fall, I put them to the test when I spent three months back at the school where I used to work as a counselor.

I didn't handle every moment perfectly, but I could feel how much more capacity I had to stay calm and respond thoughtfully than I did the last time I worked there, five years ago.

In this week's podcast episode, I share what I noticed, what helped, and why the experience made me even more certain about working with moms.

• What happened when I used nervous system tools in a loud, demanding environment
• What my students learned from watching me close my eyes in the middle of a lesson
• Why logic and reassurance usually don't get through to an upset child, and what to do first
