Brogan and Erik felt like they were walking on eggshells in their own home. Their 5.5-year-old son’s emotions ran the house—meltdowns turned into full-blown chaos, furniture was broken, and they felt trapped in a cycle of frustration and helplessness. The arrival of their younger son only seemed to intensify things, and by the time he was two, they knew something had to change.


In this special client interview, Brogan and Erik open up about their experience in the Chaos to Connection program and the life-changing transformation that followed. They share how they went from dreading the next outburst to feeling confident in handling their son’s big emotions with calm and connection. What once felt overwhelming is now manageable, and their home finally feels like a place of peace.


Their story is proof that even the hardest parenting struggles can shift with the right tools and support. If you’ve ever felt like your child’s emotions are running the show, this episode will give you hope—and a glimpse of what’s possible when you lean into connection instead of control.
