Hey Friends~ 

Your kids whine … and after a while, you doubt your resolve.  

“Maybe I am being too harsh.”      “Maybe one more cookie doesn’t matter.”   “Maybe they aren’t tired enough to go to sleep.” 

Then, as time goes on,  you resent the situation.   You resent that you got yourself  in this situation AGAIN.   And,  in those moments, you even resent your child…   When these feelings happen, it’s easy to think we are bad parents.  

Why is this so hard?   

Today, we talk about  one strategy to get out of that cycle!

Always cheering you on!

Intentionally Disturbing

Intentionally Disturbing

Join me on this podcast as I navigate the murky waters of human behavior, current events, and personal anecdotes through in-depth interviews with incredible people—all served with a generous helping of sarcasm and satire. After years as a forensic and clinical psychologist, I offer a unique interview style and a low tolerance for bullshit, quickly steering conversations toward depth and darkness. I honor the seriousness while also appreciating wit. I’m your guide through the twisted labyrinth of the human psyche, armed with dark humor and biting wit.
