About this listen

 This episode gives parents one clear definition of 'breathable': firm, predictable limits delivered with dignity, choice, and consistent follow-through—not permissive softness. You'll learn three core scripts (Hold, Invite, Consequence) with verbatim examples you can copy: toddler Hold: 'Shoes on now; you can pick red or blue.' Teen Consequence: 'If you're not home by 10, you won't get the ride tomorrow.' I coach exact tone, pacing, and body language so words land when voices rise, and include a 20–30s neurodiversity/sensory adaptation example (visual timer, shorter sentences, space to move). Two micro-practices let you rehearse scripts in low-stress moments and two low-effort experiments to try this week measure progress. Practical co-parent alignment steps and a one-page downloadable script sheet make follow-through easier. Close with a simple grounding cue and a clear CTA: 'For more quick tools, subscribe and download the one-page script sheet at [link].'
