Hi Parents!
Have you ever mistaken your teen’s anger for defiance, only to realize it was anxiety? When teens feel overwhelmed, their emotions can show up as outbursts, leaving parents unsure of how to help.
This week, I’m joined by Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, a recognized expert in children’s mental health and founder of the Global Institute of Children’s Mental Health. With 30 years of experience, she specializes in nervous system dysregulation - a key factor in anxiety, ADHD, OCD, and mood issues.
More about Dr. Roseann:
A bestselling author and top 1% podcast host, Dr. Roseann is known for her C.A.L.M.S. Dysregulation Protocol™, offering simple, science-backed strategies to help parents support their uniquely wired children.

In this episode, we break down why anxiety can look like anger, what’s happening in your teen’s brain during emotional outbursts, and how you can help them self-regulate and build resilience.
I know you’ll walk away with powerful insights!
