A podcast for parents, educators & anyone who wants to understand the "why" behind their behaviours and their child's
Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast delves into various aspects of parenting psychology, including emotional regulation, parenting lenses, and relational dynamics. Examples of episodes include discussions on the triggers behind parental reactions, the experience of guilt in parenting, and strategies for rebuilding difficult relationships with children, providing listeners with a deeper understanding of the underlying issues affecting their parenting experiences.

Beneath Behaviour is a podcast for parents who want to understand what’s really going on — in themselves and their kids. Hosted by Jackie Hall, each episode explores the emotional stories behind stress, reactivity, and relationship struggles. Unlike typical parenting podcasts, we’re not here to manage behaviour — we’re here to make sense of it. This is a no-judgment space where insight comes first — before solutions.

When everything is too much, how do we meet that moment with compassion, not control?
In this episode of Beneath Behaviour, Jackie Hall guides you through what to do during a meltdown, when your child’s emotions are big, their nervous system is flooded, and everything feels chaotic.
We explore:
- The stages of a meltdown, and how to respond to each
- What co-regulation really means in practice
- How to avoid the “conflict cycle”
- Why logic and teaching don’t work when survival mode takes over
- How to reconnect and repair afterwards
This is part two of our series on meltdowns. If you haven’t heard “Before the Meltdown,” go back and start there.
