Hello Substack 👋

Welcome to the parenting newsletter that’s done with the fluff and ready to change everything.

Welcome to Big Little Feelings on Substack

The parenting newsletter that’s done with the fluff and ready to change everything.

Let’s get one thing straight:
You are not a bad parent.
You are not failing.
You are not “too emotional,” “too reactive,” or “too much.”

You’re just parenting in a world that still expects blind obedience from kids,
and you’re choosing connection, boundaries, and emotional health instead.

That? Is revolutionary.

We created this newsletter for the cycle-breakers.
For the parents who are done yelling, done second-guessing, and done trying to be some calm robot who never gets overwhelmed.

This is where:

• Real talk meets real tools

• Emotional intelligence meets behavior change
  

• Parents feel seen, supported, and finally clear on what to do in the chaos
  
  

You don’t have to yell.
You don’t have to cave.
You don’t have to punish, bribe, beg, or hold it all in until you explode.

You can parent in a way that feels good to you, feels good to your child, and changes behavior all while building that long term resilience.

Here’s what you’ll find in your inbox:

“Aha” moments

Mic-drop moments and essays that make you think, like:

“We don’t do blind obedience. We do regulation, connection, and teaching behavior that actually serves kids for life.”

Brain Science Behind the Behavior

Science-meets-soul breakdowns of what’s really happening during your child’s tricky behaviors, and how to respond.

Real Tools, Real Life

Scripts, phrases, and 3-minute reads that work today.
What to say when your kid hits you.
How to hold the boundary and the feeling.
What calm actually looks like in real life.

Personal Stories That Spark Change

From “Motherhood healed the people pleaser in me” to “The day I stopped parenting for appearances.”
Stories that reframe everything, and change how you show up.

You don’t have to do this the way you were raised.
You don’t have to parent for appearances.
You don’t have to keep searching for a method that actually works.

You just found it.

Welcome to Big Little Feelings on Substack.
This is where the movement lives.
This is where parents get the tools, the truth, and the clarity they’ve been waiting for.

Let’s raise the generation we’ve been waiting for, together.
