Brandon examines why parents often struggle to maintain healthy relationship practices, especially during challenging times. When crises arise—whether it's grades, substance use, or mental health issues—it's easy to revert to old, ineffective habits out of frustration or fear. He discusses the importance of having a plan and sticking to it, even when things get tough. Rather than solely concentrating on your child’s behavior, prioritize your own growth, particularly during calmer periods. By rewiring your thought patterns and emotional reactions, you can better navigate crises without losing sight of healthy practices. This episode offers practical strategies for staying grounded, recognizing small victories, and finding peace in letting go of what’s beyond your control.
