Ep. 517. This week, Renee is joined by life and parenting coach Darlynn Childress for a powerful conversation about what she calls "Mad Mom Syndrome"—that all-too-familiar spiral of overwhelm, frustration, and guilt so many parents experience. Darlynn shares her personal journey from parenting with rage to leading with calm, connection, and compassion. Together, they explore the emotional needs often hiding beneath our kids’ big behaviors, how to set boundaries without shame, and why self-care isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a lifeline. Darlynn also opens up about her own healing from trauma and how it shaped her path to becoming the parent she always hoped to be. Whether you're raising littles or navigating the teen years, this episode offers honest insight, hard-won wisdom, and practical tools for breaking generational cycles and parenting with more presence and grace.
