Hope For Parents With Struggling Teens
Let the Storm Pass
Brandon returns to share powerful insights into what’s really happening when your child’s storm of emotions hits the moment they walk through the door. He explains why children often save their biggest emotions for home, the one place they feel safe enough to let go. Brandon breaks down the emotional shift that happens after a long day of holding it together and why attempts to “teach in the moment” so often backfire. Instead of demanding instant respect or calm, he encourages parents to create space, offer leadership, and choose their timing wisely so their words truly land. He speaks candidly about how overstimulation, performance pressure, and packed schedules are overwhelming kids’ nervous systems, and what parents can do to help. This conversation is a powerful call to stop reacting and start building routines that support emotional regulation. Whether it’s a six-year-old melting down after school or a teen storming in and slamming their door, Brandon offers clarity, compassion, and practical tools to help parents shift from power struggles to meaningful connection. If you’ve ever wondered why your child “saves it all for you,” this episode is a must-listen.
