Description: Send a textIt's the first proper episode of 2026!!This week I am over the moon to be joined by Melissa Schulz as we discuss parenting higher-needs kids. Melissa Schulz, MS, BCBA, is a parenting coach and behavior analyst with a  Master’s in Psychology and is one of those people that you just make time for to listen to when they are willing to share their expertise :)We discuss many things including;The difference between parenting neurodiverse/shy/strongwilled kids and "normal" children. (Note the Air quotes!)How YOUR triggers should not be your child's problem, and how to manage them.Why parenting always, absolutely always, starts with the parent. (Sounds obvious, doesn't it?)How different parenting styles are sometimes needed  for different kids, and even the same child at a different age.And much, much more.It's definitely worth checking out!You can find Melissa everywhere online;Her website (where you can download the e-book she mentioned)InstagramFacebook Just a  reminder that HPNB only has 5 billing cycles!So this means that you not only get 3 months FREE access, no obligation!
