Why Managing Your Own Stress Helps Your Child Thrive with Mimi

Children absorb more than we realise. This episode explores how parental stress impacts children — and why regulation starts with the adult, not the child.


This week, our trusted child psychologist, Dr. Faye Pool is back, to talk about a parenting skill every parent needs: how to manage your own stress before you handle your child’s meltdown.

In this episode, we cover:

  • Why staying calm is the best parenting tool you have

  • How stress affects you and your child’s developing brain

  • Simple regulation techniques to use when your child is out of control

  • Real-life tips for handling public tantrums and parenting pressure abroad


  • Mentioned in this episode:
