Parenting Stress Management: How Emotional Regulation Helps Your Child Thrive

It’s the ultimate parenting paradox: to calm a distressed child, you have to be calm yourself—even when you’re anything but. In this warm, honest, and direct episode, Eva is joined by resident child psychologist Dr. Faye Pool from Kerr Psychology to discuss the science of co-regulation. We move past "perfect parenting" ideals to explore how stress physically impacts both you and your child, and why managing your own response is the most effective tool in your kit.

Whether you're facing a public tantrum in a new country or feeling the isolation of the holiday season, Dr. Pool shares practical, "in-the-moment" techniques to help you lower the temperature before things escalate. Reshared as part of our Christmas support series, this conversation is a vital resource for international parents looking to build emotional resilience. You don’t have to be perfect; you just have to be regulated. Learn how to pause, breathe, and show up as the parent your child needs.
