The One Thing Every Adult Should Model | Paula Lillard Preschlack on Emotional Regulation – Now What? Podcast with Yogi Patel
"The most powerful thing we can do for children is to calm ourselves first"
In this heartfelt clip from the Now What? podcast, Paula Lillard Preschlack, AMI-trained Montessori educator and author of The Montessori Potential, joins Yogi Patel, fellow AMI-trained guide and founder of TTE and two Montessori schools, to explore one of the most overlooked but transformational forms of modeling adults can offer: emotional regulation.
Whether you’re a parent, caregiver, teacher, or leader this conversation is for you.
What you’ll take away:
• Why children (and adults) learn more from how we respond than what we say
• How self-awareness creates connection, not control
• The neuroscience behind emotional safety and behavior
Both Paula and Yogi are Association Montessori Internationale trained and passionate advocates of education and leadership that respects human development across all stages.
This podcast is for:
• Parents & caregivers navigating big emotions with children
• Educators creating emotionally safe classroom environments
• Leaders cultivating calm, collaborative workplaces
