You've tried everything.
And you still lose it.
- "I know what I should do. I just can't do it in the moment."
- "I've tried the breathing, the charts, the therapy. Nothing sticks."
- "I don't recognize myself when it gets bad."
- "I'm running on empty. I have nothing left."
- "I feel like the only parent in the world who can't figure this out."
- "I'm scared of what the future looks like for my kid."
- "Every morning is a battle before 8am."
- "I love my child. I just don't like who I become."
Those tools weren't built
for your body.
Every tool you've been handed — reward charts, consequences, breathing scripts, behavior plans — was designed for a calm, steady body. They assumed you'd be regulated when everything hit the fan.
Nobody told you that when YOUR body goes into survival mode, none of those tools are accessible. That's not a willpower problem. That's biology.
"You cannot lead your child from an upset body. The tools only work when you are steady first."
This workshop teaches you what to do with YOUR body first — before you say a single word to your child. Everything changes after that.
Four things that change
how it goes at home.
Why YOUR body is the starting point
The signal to a meltdown is always in your body first — not your child's. You'll learn to catch it before it takes over, so you can lead from steady instead of react from survival.
What your child's behavior is actually saying
Meltdowns, defiance, shutdowns — these aren't acting out. They're communication. You'll learn to translate the behavior so you stop fighting what's on the surface and start solving what's underneath.
The 6-step Meltdown Reset for the exact moment it falls apart
A body-first sequence for the moments that undo you. Step one is always you. You'll walk away with this in your hands — free — at the end of the workshop.
The 4-part check for any routine that keeps breaking
Mornings. Homework. Bedtime. When it keeps going sideways, there are only four places to look. You'll know exactly where to start instead of starting over from scratch every time.
"I thought I needed help with my son, but I realized that I needed help first. I wasn't steady. Calm myself — so I could walk away, de-escalate him, and come back to deal with the behavior. I didn't even realize that was the key."— Esmeralda Olguin, BBC client

90 minutes.
The Meltdown Reset Workshop — Full Agenda
Why nothing has worked — and it's not your fault
The real reason tools fail in the moment. What's actually happening in your body. Why calm is a skill, not a personality type.
Your body is the mechanism — not your mind
Understanding your body's signals before they become reactions. The story your body tells about your child — and why that story matters more than the behavior.

This workshop is built for you
if any of this is true.
- Your child has frequent meltdowns, shutdowns, or explosive behavior
- You've tried rewards, consequences, therapy, and breathing — and still lose it
- Your child has ADHD, autism, sensory differences, or big emotions (diagnosed or not)
- You feel like you're parenting in survival mode
- You know what you should do — you just can't access it in the moment
- You're exhausted, isolated, and running on empty
- You want tools that work for YOUR specific child, not a generic method
- You're looking for a quick fix or magic solution
- You want to fix your child without doing any work yourself
- Your home is calm and you're managing well
- You're not willing to look at your own body's response first
It isn't magic.
It's work that works.
"I was excited for Disneyland. Before working with Amy I would've been dreading it. I was calm. The whole day was good. The amount of times I had to tell London 'no' or 'maybe next time' and there was not ONE meltdown — literally a 'when pigs fly' moment."
— Lauryn, mom of 3 (ADHD + autistic)"Our mornings are smoother, our communication feels easier, and my daughter is calmer. We cuddle and laugh a lot more. I feel like we're on the same team rather than in conflict."
— Erin Ryan, mom of 3"She has helped so much with London which has spilled over to the other kids. I am forever grateful to have hired Amy and have her basically on call when I need help navigating a situation."
— Lauren Elizabeth, mom of 3"It isn't magic — it's work, consistency, and communication with you. But I was OK. My kid was OK. These were just behaviors. It's hard to see that when you are in it."

The Meltdown Coach
I'm a former special education classroom teacher and behavior therapist. I spent 16 years watching parents feel blamed, broken, and one meltdown away from losing it — not because they weren't trying, but because every tool they'd been given was designed for a steady body.
Nobody taught them what to do with their own upset body first. They were handed tools designed for calm — and then blamed when those tools didn't work on an upset one.
I'm here for YOU — the parent. Not just your child's behavior.
Parents think it's the kids. It starts with you. That's not blame — it's the most empowering thing I can tell you. Because it means you're the one with the power to change how this goes.
"You aren't just the tools in the toolbox. You're the instructions too. You are the positive reinforcement we need as parents who have run out of hope, running on fumes and think we have failed their children."— Lauryn, BBC client
