Are you tired of labeling your child’s behavior as “bad”?
Let’s shift our perspective and uncover the real stories behind their actions!
Welcome to this week’s TurnAround where we’re shaking off the judgment and peering into the heart of what our children’s behavior truly means.
Here’s a little secret: the way we interpret their actions isn’t just a reflection of them—it’s a mirror back to us!
When we label behavior as problematic, we inadvertently channel our energy in a way that can escalate the very issues we’re trying to resolve.
Think about it—what you focus on is what you get!
Instead of falling into the “What if…?” trap of worry, let’s flip the script to “What is the meaning?”
This subtle shift in perspective can transform not just your mindset but also the connection you share with your child.
In this video, we’ll explore how recognizing the root of behaviors can empower you to become a safe haven for your child, encouraging them to open their hearts and communicate authentically.
With humor and clarity, I’ll share actionable steps to help you transition from judgment to understanding.
So grab your popcorn and let’s dive into this enlightening and potentially entertaining journey together!

This Week’s TurnAround is: Adjusting Your Lens
Ready to ditch those old labels that hold us and our kids back?
Let’s talk about relabeling behavior!
Imagine this: your child acts out, and instead of thinking they’re just being a “brat,” you take a step back and ask, “What’s the meaning behind this?”
It’s like switching from VHS to streaming—way clearer and a lot more fun!
Here’s the deal: what we think about, we bring about.
So, if you’re stuck on negative vibes, it’s time to turn that ship around.
When you shift your focus from “What if they’re just being difficult?” to “What’s going on in their little minds?” you transform your energy and create an open channel for communication.
Just the other day, my grand-kiddo decided to declare war on bedtime—and instead of losing my cool, I asked, “What’s going on for you that you don’t want to go to bed?”
And guess what?
It opened up a lively discussion!
So, let’s embrace curiosity over judgment.
Tune in, get ready to laugh, and discover how to be that safe space for your child.
It’s time to see their behavior as a treasure map leading to deeper insights.
Are you in?
Let’s go!
Transform labels into lessons—your kid’s behavior is a goldmine!
And above all else, have some FUN with this!
