• I'M BACK!!!! Updates + exciting things ahead!
    Aug 7 2024

    Hey there, I'm so excited to announce that the Chaos to Connected podcast is coming back!!!

    I took a break about 6 months ago and had no idea whether I'd be back or not, but I'm making some big pivots and wanted to share them with you today.

    New episodes will begin airing in September when I re-launch, but in the meantime I would LOVE to hear from you! What questions do you have? What topics do you want to deep dive into? What's your biggest struggle right now?

    I also wanted to do something fun before episodes resume; if you write a review over on apple podcasts, take a screen shot and send it to me (hello@kailizcoaching.com) I am going to send you my Chaos to Calm: Conquering Aggressive Behaviors course for FREE! (currently $197)

    This course dives into why physical behaviors are actually occurring, gives you a step by step guide on what to actually do about them, and FAQs that families have consistently asked me to help you even more!

    And you can, of course, binge past episodes.

    I'm going to be doing some extra fun things inside of my emails too because I really want to be able to create more community and a place where you feel safe and seen. So if you'd like to subscribe and get weekly insights, encouragement reminders, AND bonus sneak peaks/mini coaching insights and be the first to actually hear the podcasts each week, you can do so here: https://chaostoconnected.myflodesk.com/cvuin24b94

    I can't wait to be back each week walking this motherhood journey with you!

  • 5 Ways You Are More Like Your Child Than Unlike Him/Her
    Mar 6 2024

    It can be really easy, especially when you are parenting a child who is struggling with behavior or lots of strong emotions, to forget that your child is just a mini version of you. While life experience and higher level executive functioning skills aren't the same, the way the brain processes and responds to hurts is.

    It can be easy to forget this when you are triggered from behavior so today, I want to share how parents/caregivers are more like their child than not.

  • Is your child's aggressive behavior due to a sensory processing issue?
    Feb 28 2024

    One of the most common questions I get asked is what types of deep input activities I would recommend for a child who acts or plays aggressively (hitting, kicking, throwing, etc). Previously, I would go into detail on how to incorporate into a sensory diet, but now, through additional training and experience I recognize that this alone isn't the answer.

    Today, I share how sensory processing works and how to bridge the gap effectively AND efficiently between the behaviors you are seeing and improved regulation!

    *If you have any questions as to if your child has a true sensory processing disorder, email me or seek out a local OT for assessment.

  • Birthday Envy: What to do when one child is jealous of a sibling's birthday + presents
    Feb 21 2024

    If you're a mom to more than one child you've probably experienced one child's excitement over a birthday while another child was less than happy about it. Having to wait for all of the attention and presents can be a big challenge for kids and it does matter how you handle it.

    If you are someone that gets the other child a present too or you wonder if that's the "right" thing to do, I wanted to shed some connection focused perspective light on the situation!

  • Do you want to shift the attitudes and behaviors in your home?? Here's how!
    Feb 14 2024

    Do you ever feel like the attitudes, the whining, and the fighting sometimes just really over take your entire home?

    That's how I felt 2 weeks ago. I decided something needed to change and I discovered ONE thing that makes all the difference.

    We moved from constant sibling fighting, frequent whining, hitting/kicking/pinching to try and solve problems, and me feeling a lot of annoyance, anger, and frequently triggered to so much peace, more self control and regulation, and best of all more fun and enjoyment just being together!

    Today I dive into what changed and how you can replicate it in your home too!

  • Do you ever feel overwhelmed or exhausted and then struggle to approach behavior with connection?
    Feb 8 2024

    Last week, I asked what was the hardest thing about connection focused parenting; one of the responses I received was that when feeling exhausted it was especially hard to try to respond to behaviors positively or with connection.

    I. Hear. That.!!!

    Today, I wanted to share what to do if you're finding yourself in this same situation...and you might be surprised by my recommendation!

    If this episode, or any episode you've previously listened to you has blessed or helped you, would you be willing to go and leave a rating and review on Apple Podcasts? I know mommas all over the world are searching for tangible, simple strategies to help improve behavior without using punishments, rewards, and manipulation to achieve it. Your willingness to take a minute to share will help other mommas find this information easier!
