In this insightful episode of Project Peak Performance, hosts James and Dave sit down with Kelly Hobbs, a Special Educational Needs teacher, trainee counselor, and mother of twins, to explore how parents and educators can raise emotionally resilient children in an ever-changing world. With her unique blend of professional expertise and personal parenting experience, Kelly provides heartfelt advice and practical strategies for fostering emotional growth, connection, and resilience.
Kelly opens up about the power of gentle parenting, where understanding and validating children’s emotions take center stage. She explains how behavior is often a child’s way of communicating when words fall short and shares how parents can respond in ways that promote trust and emotional development. From using play to connect with children’s inner worlds to decoding the subtle signals that may indicate deeper issues, Kelly emphasizes the importance of empathy and curiosity in parenting.
The conversation also delves into the cornerstone of emotional resilience—co-regulation. Kelly explains how staying calm and present helps children regulate their emotions while teaching self-regulation for the future. She also highlights the critical differences between tantrums and meltdowns, equipping parents with tools to handle each situation with confidence and compassion.
As a Special Educational Needs teacher, Kelly brings valuable insights into understanding and supporting neurodivergent children, including those with autism and ADHD. She advocates for personalized approaches that meet each child’s unique needs, ensuring they feel seen, valued, and supported.
The discussion takes a deeper look at how traditional education systems often miss the mark on emotional well-being. Kelly and the hosts explore the need for child-centered approaches that prioritize emotional safety, critical thinking, and self-expression over rigid academic benchmarks.
Practical tools like the SAD model make this episode a must-listen for anyone looking to guide children through emotional challenges while nurturing their independence and resilience. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or caregiver, this episode is packed with actionable advice, relatable stories, and a powerful reminder of the role we play in shaping the emotional lives of the next generation.
