Manage episode 475341881 series 3597844
In this episode, international trainer, author, key note speaker consultant and active educator Joseph McQueen (Joe) joins me. Joe talks about how important it is for kids to grow emotionally and how their behaviors and feelings can be affected by past trauma. This episode is perfect for parents, caregivers, and childcare providers who want to understand how emotions play a big part in kids’ daily lives.
Joe explains how parents and caregivers can help by managing their own emotions and understanding where their child is emotionally. He talks about the need to meet kids where they’re at emotionally, which helps them handle their feelings in a healthy way.
The episode also explores how school staff and others can support children with their emotions, especially when it comes to dealing with social situations. Joe highlights the difference between being a trauma-informed school and being trauma-aware—understanding not just the signs of trauma, but also how to approach and support kids with different emotional needs.
