Keeping Your Cool as a Parent: How Emotional Regulation Can Actually Work at Home

​Some days, parenting feels sweet and connected. Other days, your patience disappears by lunchtime and every little thing feels louder than it should. If that sounds familiar, you are in very good company. Join Spondle for a lively Spondle Circle conversation on emotional regulation at home, with mindful parenting coach Ibironke Semowo, founder of The Parents' Lounge, in conversation with Folasade Ajayi-John.

​Together, they will dig into what emotional regulation actually looks like in real family life, why staying calm is often more about the systems around you than sheer willpower, and how small routines can create enough breathing room to help you respond instead of react. Expect practical ideas you can use, honest conversation, and a refreshing lack of guilt or perfection talk.

​Come ready with your questions, because we will be answering them live. If you have ever wanted calmer mornings, fewer blowups, or just a little more steadiness in the middle of family chaos, this is a great space to pick up tools that can genuinely help.
