If you’re craving a calmer home with fewer screen- If you’re craving a calmer home with fewer screen-related tantrums... the kind of change most families see within two weeks: comment READY.I’ll send you the pre-sale link for Unplug & Play.
It’s not another long course you’ll never finish.It’s a simple, step-by-step plan that actually fixes the root of the meltdowns.
The holidays can turn even the calmest kid into a The holidays can turn even the calmest kid into a walking meltdown.
Too much stimulation.
Too much sugar.
Too many screens.
Too many expectations.And when January hits, so many parents think, “What’s wrong with my kid?”
But the truth is… nothing is wrong with them.
Their nervous system is overloaded.
Their play muscles are weak.
And their brain has been running on quick hits instead of real rest.The good news?
A fresh start actually works when you support their system instead of fighting it.If you’re heading into the New Year ready for fewer meltdowns, more peace, and a kid who can actually play again… you’re in the right place.Comment READY and I’ll send you the pre-sale link to Unplug & Play: the simple, step-by-step reset that helps kids regulate, reconnect, and finally function again. No overwhelm. No hours of videos. Just a plan that works.
Every January, parents set resolutions for themsel Every January, parents set resolutions for themselves.
But this year? I’m watching more and more parents set resolutions for their kids’ childhoods.Less iPad time.
More play.
Less overstimulation.
More calm, creativity, and connection.And honestly… it gives me so much hope.
Because the default culture is loud, addictive, and exhausting — but parents opting out? That’s how things change.If you’re stepping into the New Year determined to rebuild healthier habits... not perfect ones, just healthier ones... you’re in exactly the right place.
This is the movement.
A calmer home.
A more regulated kid.
Play that actually comes back.If you're ready for a real plan that actually works (not another “parent better” lecture), comment READY and I’ll send you the pre-sale link for Unplug & Play.Change doesn’t start with screens.
It starts with us.
It's time you put your foot down. It's time you put your foot down.
I speak the whole truth and nothing but the truth. I speak the whole truth and nothing but the truth...Sorry if it hurts your feelings. 🤭🎄
