It’s not enough to just log off and step away

Brandon Jones, M.A., CPPM, is a mental health and leadership consultant who specializes in Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs), historical and intergenerational trauma, emotional intelligence, and culturally responsive leadership. He also hosts the “It’s Not Your Fault” podcast. He joins Sheletta to talk about finding ways to connect with children and specifically teenagers in the modern age. They get into the unique stressors present at the end of the semester and the burnout that often ensues. Brandon goes through how parents can best support them through this period of heightened stimulation with young nervous systems that are still learning how to regulate themselves. Sheletta asks about how to effectively communicate with her kid when they’re experiencing burnout. Contact Brandon at jegna.org
