Birthdays are pure magic—but if you have a highly sensitive kid, you know all that excitement has to come out somewhere. My daughter just had the best Frozen-themed party, playing with her cousins and soaking up every special moment. But then… bedtime hit. And one tiny thing (a blanket not laying just right) led to a full-on meltdown.

In this episode, I’m sharing what was really going on beneath the surface, how I handled it, and the mindset shifts that helped me show up in a way that actually helped my daughter. Because when big days end in big feelings, how we respond matters so much.

So if you’ve ever had a fun, joyful day end in tears and meltdowns, you are not alone. Let’s talk about why this happens, what your child actually needs in these moments, and how you can handle them in a way that brings you closer instead of pushing you apart.
