About this listen
Why does emotional regulation feel harder than ever — for children and adults?
In this week’s Monday Morning Reframe, Tammy Nucci explores what neuroscience tells us about emotional regulation and why expecting children to “calm down” or self-regulate on their own is often developmentally unrealistic.
We unpack:
🧠 how the developing brain regulates emotions
🫶 why co-regulation must come before self-regulation
⏳ how speed, schedules, and overstimulation impact children’s nervous systems
🌱 what “challenging behaviour” is really communicating
💛 and how small, intentional shifts can make a meaningful difference
Research shows that the part of the brain responsible for impulse control and emotional regulation continues developing into the early to mid-20s. Children aren’t failing — their brains are still under construction.
This episode is a reminder to slow the moment, soften expectations, and lead with connection — especially in a fast-paced world.
Your Monday Morning Reframe:
Calm isn’t taught. It’s caught.
Pour your coffee, take a breath, and begin the week with compassion — for children and for yourself.
