Chaos to Connected - Helping Parents Navigate Challenging Behavior with Connection; Christian moms, behavior management, positive parenting, discipline, tantrums, aggression, biblical parenting
Do you feel like your child’s whining and tantrums are out of control? Are you wondering if what you’re seeing is actually normal? Do you feel like you are at your wits end, walking on eggshells, and/or just don’t know what to do anymore? Or maybe you feel exhausted and frustrated trying to manage your own triggers because you keep repeating the same yelling and lecturing cycle over and over again. Are you desperately trying to get your child to use a calming strategy but he/she refuses or it’s just not working? If you nodded along with any of that, you’re in the right place! Hi, I’m Kaili, pediatric occupational therapist, connection focused parent coach, and momma to 3 sweet littles. Back in 2020, I started an in-home daycare so I could stay home with my kids while making an income and let’s just say it didn’t go as planned. My oldest became very aggressive, something he had never been before. I tried all of the calming strategies and creating different spaces for him and NONE of it worked. I was really struggling because that is all I had been teaching other families to do for the last decade and to find out it wasn’t helping left me feeling even more hopeless. When I finally found the solution that transformed our family’s lives, I knew I needed to share it with other families in hopes they wouldn’t feel alone, emotionally exhausted, and spend their days wishing for naptime/bedtime like I had been. I created this podcast to give you tangible strategies to decrease your child’s behavior and also help you to learn to manage and resolve your own triggers. This podcast will help you gain more awareness and insights into child development and the root cause of your child’s behavior as well as help you break generational patterning that isn’t serving you. Inside this podcast you will find episodes filled with tips, tools, perspective shifts, and biblical truth to help you throughout your motherhood journey. Most of what I share is going to go against your natural responses and what mainstream will tell you to do, but that is because it includes what most of society is missing when they look at children and their behavior…CONNECTION. It is a vital necessity for all of us to operate out of our thinking brains and use logic, problem solving, reasoning, judgment, and impulse control, specifically when it comes to our responses and behaviors. While these strategies can be implemented for all ages, I focus primarily on 1-10 year olds since that is what I have most personal and professional experience with. If you want to stop feeling overwhelmed, stuck, and on the verge of your breaking point and truly make shifts in your parenting, your actions, thoughts, and responses, to gain more clarity, peace, and joy in your home, then let’s get to it! I know it can feel hard to step into the unknown, especially because you feel like you’ve tried it all, and honestly sometimes it feels easier to stay in a harder place because it’s familiar. But it’s not what God has for you or your child(ren). So take a minute, breathe deeply, and then join me as we jump into managing behaviors with connection!

One of the biggest challenges in parenting can be the blending of two different perspectives learning how to come together and figure out a plan for discipline. This can create even more tension when one parent has a preference for connection focused strategies and the other parent doesn't.
Join me as I chat about perspective shifts, strategies and some encouragement if your spouse isn't quite as excited about connected parenting as you are.

There is so much depth to our reactions to the behaviors we encounter. It can be extremely difficult to see the patterning that we have developed from our upbringing and the molding that has occurred from society.
Today, I share with you 3 ways we unintentionally stop our child from expressing and releasing their feelings. This is always helpful for me in the middle of meltdowns to be more aware of to help change my natural patterning.
Which one do you struggle with or tend to rely on the most?

With my background as a pediatric occupational therapist and working in an outpatient clinic, I came across recommendations of ignoring behavior as a behavioral modification strategy, frequently.
At the time, I honestly didn't think much of it because I didn't know any different.
However, I'd like to offer you a fresh perspective on whether or not ignoring your child's behavior actually helps and why! Check it out!

Does your child ever lash out when he/she is upset and hit, kick, bite, or pinch?
Did you know this is actually a NORMAL response to stored up fear and anger?
Want to know why the punishments and time outs aren’t working to get rid of the behavior?
Because it’s perpetuating the cycle of disconnection and the inability for your child to think logically. It also dampens the child’s ability to learn through co-regulation.
Obviously we don’t want our children to continue with this behavior long term, so what do we do about it….
Today, I walk you through 5 tips that have successfully helped the aggression in our home move from multiple times per day to maybe 1-2 times per week. BONUS: the child that tends to the aggressive side is actually showing improved impulse control prior to reacting and following through with what I have been training and teaching him to do! This is huge!
I hope this is an encouragement and a helpful peek inside your child’s brain!
