Have you ever tried so hard to stay regulated and then lose it, wondering if you are messing up your kids? Yes, us too!

Join Kayla Huszar and my insightful guest, Danik, as we courageously talk about trauma and motherhood that promises to leave you feeling seen and empowered (and maybe a little raw). This episode takes you through a generational parenting shift, informed by new knowledge and resources. It highlights the essential roles of awareness and validation in healing—not just for ourselves but for our children too. 

Ah Ha! Moments:

• We share raw and personal postpartum experiences and talk about the impact of our now-diagnosed conditions, like ADHD. 
• The myths of flawless parenting are dismantled as we, therapists, talk about how to self-regulate, repair, process trauma and foster emotional safety within yourself. 
• The delicate balance of emotional intelligence, discussing how to bravely accept feedback from our kids and how this openness can sometimes trigger our own past traumas. 

Tune in for a conversation that promises to resonate deeply and offer a path toward breaking cycles of trauma with grace and understanding.
