339: Safety Lessons Every Parent S
Safety Lessons Every Parent Needs To Teach Their Child Is your child truly safe? It’s every parent’s biggest worry, but the answer might not be what you think. 🛡️ In this episode of The Impactful Parent, host Kristina Campos dives deep into the essential safety lessons every child needs to know. We often think of safety as something we do for our children, but true safety comes from equipping our kids with the tools to protect themselves when we can’t be there. From navigating the physical world to staying safe in the digital landscape, Kristina shares 8 powerful lessons and 6 crucial online safety tips to help you move from a place of worry to a place of empowerment. In this video, you will learn: ✅ Awareness & Intuition: Why teaching your child to "put the phone down" and walk with purpose is a game-changer for their physical safety [00:48]. ✅ The Power of 'No': How to help your child find their voice, set firm boundaries, and reject the "compliance" trap that predators look for [04:19]. ✅ Physical Defense: Simple ways to practice moving out of reach and why role-playing is the best way to build muscle memory [02:20]. ✅ Digital Defense: Identifying the 6 common tactics online predators use—from "modeling" scams to "friend" requests—and how to stop them in their tracks [10:55]. ✅ Practical Tools: Kristina’s top recommendations for monitoring apps like Qustodio and why she endorses Gab Wireless for a safer, internet-free smartphone experience [23:09]. As parents, we can’t be with our kids 100% of the time, but we can give them the confidence to handle the world on their own. Let’s arm our kids with the logic, boundaries, and awareness they need to stay safe! Special Offer for Our Community: Want a safer phone for your child?

338: Understanding Teen Self Harm: Myths vs. Reality
Understanding Teen Self Harm: Myths vs. Reality Is your teen struggling with big emotions, and you’re terrified they might be turning to self-harm? It is one of the scariest realizations a parent can face. You see the long sleeves in summer or the sudden withdrawal, and your heart sinks. You aren’t alone in this fear. In this episode of the Impactful Parenting Podcast, host Kristina Campos dives deep into a heavy but necessary conversation: Understanding Teen Self-Harm. We often go straight to the most frightening conclusions, but understanding the "why" behind these actions is the first step toward healing. Kristina debunks common myths—like the idea that self-harm is always a suicide attempt or just a "phase"—to help you see what is truly happening in your child's world. [11:14] In this video, you will learn: The Reality of Self-Harm: Common forms like cutting, hitting, and burning, and why the average age of the first incident is often younger than you think. [08:58] Warning Signs to Watch For: Subtle behavioral shifts, like wearing long pants at the beach or a sudden refusal to go to the pool. [10:00] Debunking the Myths: Why self-harm is usually a coping mechanism for emotional pain rather than an attempt to end life. [11:37] The Power of Connection: Why the "basics" of loving your child and building a safe connection are more important than grades or after-school activities right now. [03:03] When to Seek Help: Clear indicators that the situation is escalating and how to take the next steps for professional evaluation. [18:03] As parents, we are role models for how to handle stress. Kristina shares her own vulnerability about navigating difficult times while showing up for her children, reminding us that it’s okay to struggle as long as we keep the focus on connection. [05:03] Free Resource for You: Kristina has put together a free guide: 20 Ways to Cope. This PDF provides over 20 productive strategies you can offer your child to help them manage their big emotions without turning to self-harm. 👉 Download it here: theimpactfulparent.com/20waystocope [17:46] If this video resonates with you, please subscribe and share it with another parent who might be struggling.

336: Difficult Teenagers. Tips and Advice for Parents
Difficult Teenagers. Tips and Advice for Parents "I just don't know what to do with them anymore." 😔 Does that sentence sound familiar? If you’ve reached the point where you feel more like a warden than a parent, or if your teen's behavior has shifted from "typical moodiness" to something much more difficult to manage, this video was made specifically for you. Welcome back to The Impactful Parent. I’m your host, Kristina Campos, and today we are tackling one of the most requested—and most emotionally taxing—topics in our community: Navigating the world of difficult and defiant teenagers. When your teen pushes back, shuts down, or acts out, it’s easy to feel like you’ve failed. But the truth is, these behaviors are often a "cry for help" or a misunderstood attempt at independence. In this episode, we move past the surface-level frustration to look at the root causes of teen defiance and provide you with a roadmap to bring peace back to your home. In this video, we cover: 🧠 The Science of Defiance: Why the teen brain is literally wired to push your buttons and how understanding this can lower your stress levels. 🛑 The Control Paradox: Why "squeezing tighter" often makes teens slip through your fingers and how to shift from a guardian to a coach. 🗣️ De-Escalation Strategies: Practical phrases and techniques to use when a conversation turns into a confrontation. ⚖️ Boundaries with Connection: How to enforce rules and consequences without destroying the relationship. 🛡️ When to Seek Professional Help: Recognizing the red flags that go beyond "normal" teenage rebellion.

335: Talking to Teenagers About WEIGHT
Talking to Teenagers About WEIGHT Is your teen struggling with body image, or are you worried about their health but afraid to say the wrong thing? In a world obsessed with filters and "perfect" bodies, many parents feel like they’re walking on eggshells when it comes to the topic of weight. We want our children to be healthy, but we don’t want to trigger low self-esteem or disordered eating. Is your teen struggling with body image, or are you worried about their health but afraid to say the wrong thing? In a world obsessed with filters and "perfect" bodies, many parents feel like they’re walking on eggshells when it comes to the topic of weight. We want our children to be healthy, but we don’t want to trigger low self-esteem or disordered eating. In this episode of The Impactful Parent, host Kristina Campos sits down with Dr. Joseph Skelton, a board-certified pediatrician and author of the groundbreaking book, Your Child Is Not Their Weight. Together, they pull back the curtain on how to foster a home environment built on trust, health, and body neutrality rather than numbers on a scale. [01:18] In this video, you’ll discover: The "Veiled Weight Talk" Trap: Why substituting the word "health" for "weight" doesn't fool teenagers and what to say instead. [07:09] Auditing Your Own "Fat Talk": How your comments about your own body in the mirror are inadvertently teaching your kids how to value themselves. [04:58] Deconstructing Social Media: Practical ways to help your teen see through curated digital images and AI-enhanced influencers. [13:46] The P&R Coin: Understanding how Pressure and Restriction actually interfere with a child’s natural hunger cues. [20:18] High-Impact Routines: Why the "Family Meal" remains the #1 tool for mental and physical health (and how to handle grumpy teens during it!). [23:09] Dr. Skelton shares his 20+ years of clinical experience to help you move away from the "low-fat trauma" of the 80s and 90s and toward a holistic approach where health is a family pursuit. [03:32] Whether you are dealing with a picky eater or a teen who feels they don’t fit the "cultural mold," this conversation provides the roadmap you need to ensure your child feels loved exactly as they are.

334: Stop The Medication Guessing Game
Stop the Guessing Game: Is Your Teen’s "Broken" Brain Actually a Superpower? 🧠✨ Are you exhausted by the endless cycle of new medications, different therapists, and "wait and see" approaches that never seem to work for your teenager? It feels like you're throwing darts in the dark, hoping one eventually hits the mark while your child continues to struggle. What if you could turn the lights on? [00:01] I’m Kristina Campos, founder of The Impactful Parent, and today I am joined by the brilliant Dr. Rando, founder of Axon EEG Solutions. Together, we are pulling back the curtain on a game-changing approach to mental health: Brain Mapping (qEEG). [00:30] Dr. Rando challenges the standard "trial and error" method of psychiatric medication. He shares how objective brain data can reveal that a "broken" teen might actually just be a high-performing brain in the wrong environment. Think of it like a Husky living in the desert—the dog isn't the problem; the ecosystem is. [15:30] In this deep-dive episode, we explore: The End of Guesswork: How brain scans provide a "lab test" for mental health, similar to a blood test or X-ray. [08:50] Validation for Your Child: Why seeing their own brain map can help a teen stop feeling "lazy" or "crazy" and start feeling empowered. [21:37] The "Husky" Metaphor: Understanding unmet needs and how to curate an environment where your child’s unique brain can thrive. [32:00] Beyond Medications: Using data to choose the right sports, hobbies, and educational settings for your child’s specific wiring. [34:50] If you’ve ever asked, "Why isn't therapy working?" or "Why does this medication make things worse?", this conversation is the answer you’ve been praying for. It’s time to move from chaos to connection by understanding the beautiful complexity of your child's brain. [01:15] Connect with Dr. Steve Rando: Learn more about his work and his book, Think Like a Brain, at thinklikeabrain.com or visit axoneegsolutions.com.
