Returning to us Podcast

  Professor turned brain coach, speaker, and book devourer, I'm on a mission to use a trauma and neuroscience-based approach to help educators and parents, like you, to reduce stress, get students to listen, and diminish behaviors.
  

Parenting and educating children is one of the greatest experiences in life, but it comes with plenty of emotionally draining challenges. Join me as I discuss strategies and tips for how to hack your brain, build and strengthen relationships, and teach people how to recognize and neutralize their emotional states.

Not happy with a child’s behavior? Feeling stressed out? Just want to learn more about emotions and the brain? This podcast is for YOU.

Relationships and the Need to Feel Connected – Second of the 5 Needs Areas

The second of the 5 Needs Areas is the attachment and relationship need. This is the need to feel connected, that you belong to a group. The groups could be a family system, a school system, or a classroom.

When kids are lacking in this need area, they will seek ways to connect and belong. For example, a child may be overly kind and loving or needy.
