Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 71 - Anxiety, OCD and the Two Sentences Every Parent Needs with Demetra Brege and Will Sessions
Q: What's just one supportive sentence you can say right now to an anxious or OCD child to help them feel seen, confident and understood?
A two-part approach: first validate the distress by saying you see how hard it is, and then express belief in their ability to cope, e.g., 'I know you're worried, and I believe you can handle getting upstairs with my support.'
Episode 69 - Helping Your Child Through Big Emotions: Lessons from DBT with Helen Wilde
Q: What is one thing parents can learn from DBT to help with emotional regulation?
The key takeaway is validation—finding at least a grain of truth to acknowledge how the child feels, then pausing from immediate problem-solving to sit with and understand the emotion, which over time helps the child regulate and feel understood.
Episode 63 - Surviving (and Thriving in) Neurodiverse Parenting with Professor Amanda Kirby
Q: Amanda, if I could push you just to say, just one thing, for a parent in this situation, of having a neurodivergent child in today's world, what would that be?
That it's wonderful. And I think my family and my children and grandchildren who are neurodivergent, whose life sometimes has been or is harder to navigate, also make me laugh so much as well and bring me so much joy as well. And not to lose sight of the joy that your kids can bring and make sure you don't stop laughing as well.
Episode 70 - Why Your Teen Pushes Back (And What to Do Instead) with Rachel Richards
Q: How should parents approach setting boundaries with teens to avoid power struggles?
Approach boundaries collaboratively, explaining why they matter for the teen's own wellbeing and future, and sit down for calm, regular conversations rather than issuing directives in the heat of the moment.
Episode 70 - Why Your Teen Pushes Back (And What to Do Instead) with Rachel Richards
Q: What's at the heart of all good rules and boundaries in the home?
The heart is unconditional love and respect for your child; you must believe they want the best for themselves and treat them with curiosity rather than judgment.
