Summary

Jessica's superpower is making brain science accessible and entertaining for children and adults alike. She is living this out as a clinical supervisor, nationally known speaker, author, and Shameless Mom of 3. She is also the founder and director of the training and resource platform BraveBrains. This is Jessica’s second time on the show. I was so excited to have her back because talking to her about brain science is so incredibly helpful and insightful. Learning from Jessica makes me a better woman, leader, and mom.  Listen in to hear Jessica share: How our stories lead us to shame spirals and keep us in shame spirals How our shame spirals are more dramatically triggered while parenting in a pandemic Why she is calling her sons “explorers” to appreciate and honor the ways their brains are differently wired How to engage your “upstairs brain” to stay hopeful in hard times and shift your stories and narratives How we can help our kids shift their stories and narratives, especially around worry and shame Why she wrote What’s Inside Your Backpack? about a little girl’s worry and shame - and why she released it during the pandemic Why she opted to frame her story around a little girl who has an unsafe parent How and why she considered multiple layers of inclusivity when writing her book and having it illustrated How to introduce your kids about the “both/and” philosophy in order to foster hope and resiliency Links mentioned: Join my business training workshop on May 11th, 3 Essential Building Blocks To Growing A Successful Business Connect with Jessica and order What’s Inside Your Backpack Jessica on Instagram Jessica on Facebook Jessica on Twitter Thank you to our sponsors: Bulldog Online Yoga: Head to bulldogonline.com and use promo code SHAMELESS for a 30 day free trial and 50% off your next month!
