You’re not imagining it: Your kid isn’t listening. But it’s not because they’re defiant. It’s not because you’re a bad parent. And it’s definitely not because you haven’t yelled loud enough. In this episode, we reveal what’s actually going on when your child “doesn’t listen” - and the 5 research-backed strategies that will change everything.

You’ll learn:

• Why kids struggle to process directions (hint: it’s their brain, not bad behavior)
• How giving your child just 8 seconds can increase cooperation by up to 40%
• The common parenting habits that backfire—and what to do instead
• The science of co-regulation, timing, and how to speak so kids actually hear you
• What to say, how to say it, and how to stop yelling (without losing your authority)

This episode is part wake-up call, part emotional gut check, and part masterclass in getting your kid to listen without fear, shame, or bribes. If you’re stuck in the repeat-yell-regret cycle? Press play. There’s a better way - and we’re here to show it to you.

If you’ve ever asked yourself “Why am I so triggered by my child’s emotions?” “Why does this feel harder for me than it does for everyone else?” Or “How do I raise emotionally healthy kids… when no one taught me how?” This episode is for you. Kristin and Deena go beneath the surface of parenting and into the work most of us were never taught to do: regulating, repairing, and reparenting yourself while raising your child.

You’ll learn:

• The real reason parenting feels so hard (it’s not you - it’s your nervous system)
• The science behind regulation and how to actually build it in real time
• What generational healing looks and feels like - in messy, everyday moments
• Why grief is a part of parenting when you’re doing it differently than you were parented
• The 4 tools to start breaking cycles, even when you’re overwhelmed

This is the episode that helps you understand yourself. And when you understand yourself, you stop blaming yourself. You don’t have to be perfect. You just have to be the parent you needed.

Stop what you’re doing—this episode will change the way you parent forever. Kristin and Deena sit down with the incredible Dr. Aliza Pressman, developmental psychologist and host of Raising Good Humans, to reveal the ONE parenting thing that really matters (hint: it’s not the perfect lunchbox, perfect summer camp, or perfect anything).

What you’ll walk away with: The top thing that makes or breaks your child’s emotional health. What you can finally stop stressing over. Why your “C+” days are actually good enough. How to parent big feelers, highly sensitive kids, and yourself—with science-backed tools and zero guilt.

This conversation is honest, hilarious, and full of the kind of real talk that makes you breathe easier as a parent.

If you’ve ever thought, “Am I messing this up?”—you need this episode.
