About this listen

Your child is melting down in the grocery store. You've tried consequences, bribing, reasoning—nothing works. You leave red-faced, heart racing, wondering what you're doing wrong. Here's the truth: you're not using the wrong strategy, you're using the wrong playbook.

In this episode, Dr. Veronica Schiltz and Dr. Serena Coffman reveal the neurological difference between tantrums and meltdowns—and why it changes everything about how you respond. If traditional discipline keeps backfiring, this episode will finally help you understand what's really happening in your child's overwhelmed nervous system.
