Why You Lose It With Your Kids (It’t not what you think)

Why You Lose It With Your Kids
You love your kids.
And sometimes… you completely lose it.
You snap.
You raise your voice.
You say something sharper than you meant to.
And then the guilt rushes in.
You promise yourself it won’t happen again.
But somehow… it does.
If that sounds familiar, this workshop is for you.
Here’s what most parenting advice misses:
You are not “bad at parenting.”
You are not weak.
You do not lack willpower.
When you lose it, it’s not a character flaw.
It’s your nervous system doing exactly what it was wired to do under stress.
In this workshop, we’re focusing on the first and most important step in real change:
Noticing.
Before we can respond differently, regulate differently, or repair differently…
we have to understand what’s actually happening.
Together, we’ll explore:
• Why parenting activates your stress response faster than almost anything else
• What happens in your body when you shift into fight, flight, or shutdown
• Why you react before you can think
• The early warning signs your nervous system gives you (that you might be missing)
• How shame keeps the yelling cycle going
This session is about awareness — not perfection.
It’s about learning to recognize your patterns with curiosity instead of criticism.
When you can notice what’s happening in real time —
when you can name it —
you create space.
And space is where change begins.
You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of your own stress responses and the foundation needed to interrupt the yelling cycle over time.
This is the first pillar of the Calm-ish Parent framework.
And it’s where everything starts.
No fixing.
No shaming.
No pretending.
Just honest understanding.
At the end of our time together, I’ll briefly share what the next steps look like — when and if you’re ready — including future workshops that cover the next pillars and opportunities to go deeper inside The Calm-ish Parent Collective.
You get to move at your own pace.
This work isn’t about rushing change.
It’s about building it in a way that lasts.
If you’re tired of ending the day with guilt…
If you want to understand what’s really happening inside you…
If you’re ready to start noticing instead of just reacting…
Join us.
This is where we begin. 💚
