In this eye-opening episode of Core Conversations, clinical psychologist and CBT expert Dr. Caroline Danda joins us to talk about the pressure, guilt, and emotional weight modern parents are carrying and why your biggest parenting superpower might be something no one ever told you about: emotional regulation.
We explore what it means to truly show up for your child, even when you feel overwhelmed or uncertain. From avoiding the trap of "parenting out of anxiety" to learning when to stop fixing and start listening, this episode will challenge and comfort every parent trying to do their best even when it feels like too much.
🧠 What you'll learn:
- Why saying “I’m doing my best” can unintentionally add pressure to your child
- What emotional hoarding is and why it’s damaging
- The power of pausing before reacting
- How to stop parenting out of fear, and start parenting with connection
- Why your child doesn’t need you to be perfect, just present
Whether you're navigating tantrums, teenage silence, or your own self-doubt — this conversation is for the parent who’s trying, tired, and wondering if they’re getting it right.
