EVEN THOUGH I am not a parent to an adult child, I was struck by how many things Catherine shared that we can be doing NOW as parents of young children to set us up for an incredible relationship when our kids are older.  For over 40 years, Catherine Hickem has helped families navigate emotional complexity with clarity and purpose. A licensed clinical social worker, seasoned psychotherapist, and executive coach, Catherine has worked with thousands of parents and professionals alike—guiding them through seasons of conflict, change, and growth. Through her platform, Parenting Adult Children Today, she provides resources that are clear-eyed and compassionate, rooted in both clinical experience and personal story. Catherine speaks with empathy and credibility, as a professional who has seen these wounds play out in therapy rooms, and as a mother who has walked the path of reconnection and herself. Her message challenges parents to reflect rather than react, to trade control for curiosity, and to do the inner work required to become a safe and steady presence in their children's adult lives. Catherien's upcoming book It's Never Too Late to Be a Great Parent is coming out this year, and you can find Catherine here: https://www.parentingadultchildrentoday.com/ 🎉STOP YELLING!

In this episode I have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Cam Caswell, PhD, Dr. Cam is a nationally recognized adolescent psychologist, parent coach, TEDx speaker, podcast host, and founder of the Parenting Teens Academy. Affectionately known as "The Teen Translator," Dr. Cam helps frustrated but hopeful parents turn power struggles into connection and chaos into calm—without yelling, shaming, or giving up on their teen. With over 20 years of experience and a doctorate in Developmental Psychology, Dr. Cam has supported thousands of families through shutdowns, attitude, anxiety, and emotional blowups. Her practical, science-backed tools have been featured on NPR, FOX, Newsweek, and Grown & Flown. As a single mom to a teen herself, she brings both clinical expertise and personal insight to every conversation—along with humor, heart, and zero judgment. Through her Parenting Teens Academy, her popular podcast, and a highly engaged Instagram community of 347K+ parents, Dr. Cam teaches what most parenting experts don't: how to translate behavior instead of just manage it. I'm so excited to share this conversation with you.

Does it feel like you're always taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back? Maybe 2 steps is generous and it feels more like 50 steps back. This is that feeling where you've "tried everything" and nothing seems to make any difference.  In this week's podcast episode I share how we took a pretty big step backwards and how I am using my 8 step process to re-evaluate and get back on track even stronger than before.  These moments can derail us, but when we have a process to work from, we can eliminate a lot of the emotional burden and actually make meaningful progress.  Book a call with me: https://calendly.com/responseableparenting/call    🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

In this episode I have a beautiful conversation with Jenny Robinson Clark, mom of four and wife to Travis Clark, the frontman of We The Kings.  Her new children's book, Are You Here? officially launches on March 17th and offers itself as a gentle entryway to conversation with kids about what happens when a loved one passes, how to find connection in the day to day, and the signs that show us love all around. As a creative homeschool mom of four in Nashville, Jenny builds curiosity and emotional awareness into her family's routine, encouraging children to explore how feelings and connection truly work.

It feels impossible to know what to do as an American mother in the early months of 2026. Nothing about this is normal. Nothing.  I do not claim to be an expert on politics. I acknowledge that as a white woman, I've inherited a level of privilege that many have not. And I do not pretend to know all the levels deep and the immense complexities others are facing on a daily basis.  And, this is a moment in history that will affect every single person. In this episode I share my views on how to support yourself so you can support your children. How you can harness your emotions and take action in alignment with your values.  My hope is that this conversation provides helpful steps to take so you are not feeling like you're stuck on the spin cycle of headlines and chaos.

In this episode I share 2 very specific moments in my parenting that I saw how external influences changed my internal state. And how when that was triggered, it pushed me right into a predictable pattern of reactivity.  This experience showed me once again how important our internal health, sense of safety, and ability to regulate truly is because our emotional state transforms how we interact and react to the external. It can be so strong it makes us believe false realities that can keep us stuck in miserable, makes us react to false narratives false and storylines that we not only react to but end up believing and in living into. 🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

In this episode I share a story from my family of origin and how I discovered a clear and potential pattern in my own parenting. I share how easy it would be for this pattern to be how I engaged my own strong-willed kid and how easy it is to fall into this trap.  I also walk you through how we can change the pattern and empower ourselves to a deeper understanding of self, as well as learning how to own our responses vs. making it anyone else's job (including our kids) to solve, in order for us to feel better.  🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

I noticed over the break the rush to solve something I didn't like seeing with my kids. A quick conversation after being pulled into another room, a fast directive at the dinner table, etc. However, in that rush, I noticed my dysregulation didn't go away, in fact, it amplified as the guilt of not doing it the way I wanted to the first time started to creep in.  In this episode I talk about how my 4 step neural rewiring process works in specific situations. I share what each step looks like in the moment as well as how we can (once we're confidently applying it ourselves) begin to help our children through the same process.  If this is something you'd like to explore as a solution to the challenges you're facing with your own reactivity, please reach out to me.

In this episode I share a technique I tried with my very defensive, strong-willed ADHD son when he was caught crossing a screen boundary. After attempting traditional talking and getting ABSOLUTELY NO WHERE I tried something different. What came out of it was nothing short of remarkable. He opened up and was totally vulnerable. He shared what was really going on and we were able to address the ROOT of the issue, not just the surface level unwanted behavior.  🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

In this episode I share how to approach the holidays from a nervous system perspective. When there is prediction there is less friction. So we are not leaving the days up to chance. We are creating focused blocks of time that engage our children in activities they like and want to do. We are prioritizing what they want to have happen and we are creating a little mystery with some special time blocks as well.  Additionally, with extended family, let's get them on board by creating a menu to choose from where they get their 1:1 time, but with things that are predictable and accepted.  And finally, the main key to making this all work is the regulation breaks that help us transition out of one activity into the next.  I hope this serves you very well this holiday and I can't wait to hear how you implement this strategy!   🎉REWIRE with ResponseABLE Parenting🎉 Put an end to the exhausting patterns you find yourself in day in and day out with your kids.

Meet Jeff Hittner. He's the founder of the Ambitious Dads Project and has interviewed over 200 dads to learn more about the gaps in fatherhood that challenge the connection many are seeking with their kids.  In Jeff's own words, Fatherhood cracked me open in ways I never expected — and showed me how unprepared most of us are for the emotional work it demands. After learning I couldn't be a biological father, I wrestled early with the fear that I might screw up my kids before they even existed — a feeling every dad, in one way or another, eventually comes to know. The Ambitious Dads Project is where we stop winging it and start talking.

I know this movie is from last year but I will watch it over and over again. It's so good! If you haven't seen it, The Wild Robot will validate all of your parenting feelings! :) In this week's episode I break down a scene where the main robot shares how she's reprogrammed herself in order to show up for the child she needs to care for. It's an incredible validation that we are globally stepping into a new knowledge of how this relationship thrives. We are no longer doing things because "that's the way they've always been done." We are now consciously aware that this relationship takes work…but the work starts internally for us as the parent.  Make sure you join my free workshop coming up on 8/26: Rewire Your Reactions!If you can't join live, sign up for the replay and learn how to do this exact process yourself!

It is so easy to correct our kids over and over. Especially when it's the same repetitive behavior that is beyond annoying. However this is RESULTS focused correction. And when we don't get the results we want, we get angry, we get annoyed, and OUR default pattern of reaction comes pouring out. *And lets be honest, probably with greater intensity than it deserves because of our emotional trigger. In this week's shift happens episode I talk about shifting away from the results and looking more towards the TRY. When we notice our kids trying we can see that they are in fact shifting in the direction of the results we're after. But we're giving it time and we're not loading on the shame.  This is a quick mental reframe and I hope it serves you as much as it served me! GET REGULATED!

This was an incredible conversation with Kristen Jenson - author of the best selling book GOOD PICTURES BAD PICTURES. Please check out more info on Kristen and her books below.  I learned so much about our children's accessibility and vulnerability to images that can have a huge impact on their brain development. I also had no idea it could start so young. Even if your children are in Kindergarten or below, please take a listen to prepare for the reality that faces our kids at a very young age - especially when they have access to ipads or phones.  Kristen Jenson Website/Books: www.defendyoungminds.com/books Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DefendYM/ Instagram: @defendyoungminds X: @defendYM LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/defend-young-minds GET REGULATED!

On a 5 hour road trip my boys started fighting over the most benign thing…a book. I share the annoying details, the default patterns we fell into when we hit our breaking point, and ultimately what I did to recover the moment.  It highlighted for me just how important it is to have regulation practices built into the day. How they cannot be back burner, "if I can get to it today" actions. These moments in parenting show us our tolerance level. And we are only as effective as we are regulated. Knowing that everything is tied to the nervous system it's crucial we adopt nervous system regulation practices as parents. It's the way through the tough moments.  If you haven't already joined, head over to Fast Way To Regulate (just below) and dive in. You'll get a masterclass in regulation practices and be able to read your patterns faster and faster as you begin to embody regulation practices into your life.  GET REGULATED!

In this episode I share more about that really frustrating cycle of trying something to break a negative cycle, it not going well, and then how we can often compare our journey to others - which creates more shame, self judgement, and tends to further solidify the negative pattern we're trying to get rid of in the first place.  But don't worry, I don't leave you in that :) I also share how to change that. I offer a lot of mindset shifts and tools to start using in order to creat real, meaningful, but most importantly AUTHENTIC change in your parenting.  GET REGULATED!
