Ep 8. The Hidden Storm

from The Rewired Collective

In this eye-opening 20-minute solo episode, explore why your knee-jerk reaction to a child’s lie might be fueling the problem—not fixing it. Drawing from neuroscience and real-life stories (like the classic “candy juice on the face” fib), we reframe “defiant” lies as survival defenses triggered by adult “storms.” Discover the CALM framework—a simple, actionable reset to create safety, lower the “cost of truth,” and build lasting trust. Packed with practical scripts, a guided breath reset, and quick tips for parents, teachers, and caregivers, this episode flips confrontation into connection. Inspired by Dr. David A. Palmer’s TED Talk “Am I Safe With You?”—watch it for the full framework! https://drdavidapalmer.hopp.to/tedx Perfect for anyone tired of power struggles. Listen now and become the calm, not the chaos. #ParentingHacks #EmotionalIntelligence #BeTheCalm This is a public episode.
