Your yelling probably has a timestamp, and that does not mean something is wrong with you. I share three stories, from a childhood kitchen sink to a 5 p.m. toddler "no" to a 10 p.m. bedtime request, and walk you through why your yelling window happens and the smallest possible plan for changing it.
In this episode, you'll learn:
Why you tend to yell at the same moment almost every day, and why that makes it a pattern instead of a character flaw
The sequence behind a yelling moment: the trigger, the feeling, and the sentence your brain adds a half second later
Why the belief that your kid did it on purpose fuels anger, and how to start rewriting that sentence when you are calm
How to make an if-then plan that says what you will do instead of what you are trying to stop
Why you don't need more patience in your yelling window, you need a plan
