With Cindy Hovington, Ph.D.
Having to handle our child’s behaviour and big emotions is to be expected, it comes with being a parent. But goodness, it is exhausting. The true work of parenting is being able to regulate ourselves in the face of their big reactions. To better understand what causes our children to react this way, we’ll learn about what’s actually happening in their brains. In this episode, we are joined by Cindy Hovington to help understand this perspective, discuss tantrums, big emotions, and how to make a connection with your child during this key time.
Cindy Hovington, Ph.D. holds a doctorate degree in neuroscience. She is a mom of 3 and the founder of Curious Neuron, a resource providing parenting advice that is backed by science.
