Episode notes
When your child’s meltdown triggers that instant rush of anger, panic, or shutdown — it’s not about bad parenting. It’s your nervous system running old survival patterns.
In this episode of The Family Architect: Parenting by Design Rather Than by Default, Philippa shares the Ground, Root, Send method from The Regulated Mother Method™ — a simple, body-based tool to calm your nervous system in real time so you can respond instead of react.
Learn why your triggers aren’t really about the present, how to break the cycle of yelling or shutting down, and how to model emotional regulation for your child. Plus, hear real-life stories of mums using this method in chaotic moments — and changing everything.
