Ever feel like you're stuck in a never-ending loop of tantrums, yelling, timeouts, and tears 😭(yours and theirs)?
🎙️In this episode, we’re defining extreme parenting—and no, it’s not just for moms raising kids with special needs. We’re talking about behavior issues, trauma triggers, meltdown moments, and that pit-in-your-stomach feeling when you realize you’ve got nothing left in the tank.

They’re getting real about how hard it is to parent through extreme behaviors without losing your peace, your joy, or your mind.
