Why do the simplest moments with kids — like putting on a coat — sometimes explode into shouting, tears, and slammed doors?
 Why do even the most loving parents find themselves saying things they swore they'd never say?

In this powerful conversation, parenting coach Camilla McGill shares the three biggest mistakes parents unknowingly make — and, more importantly, how small shifts can completely transform the connection with a child.

Listeners will hear a real-life "messy moment" that every parent will recognise and walk away with practical tools to:
 ✨ Stay calm under pressure
 ✨ Guide instead of control
 ✨ Focus on building long-term resilience — not just short-term obedience

If anyone has ever walked away from an argument with their child thinking, "Why did it go that way?" — this episode offers the insight and reassurance they need.
