The Repeating Triggers Playbook for moms.

Same trigger, different day? This is the “what do I do in the moment” playbook for when your kid’s behavior hits a nerve and you can feel yourself about to spiral. Not fluffy. Not performative. Just practical steps that work when your nervous system is lit up.

What’s inside

This isn’t a “read it once and hope for the best” PDF. It’s a moment-by-moment tool for when you feel yourself getting pulled into the same pattern… again.

Part 1 — Spot the pattern

  • Find your repeat triggers (the ones that hit the hardest).
  • Name what’s under the trigger (time pressure, disrespect, mess, noise, control, etc.).
  • Figure out your early warning signs so you can intervene sooner.

Part 2 — In the moment

  • A fast reset so you can respond without exploding or shutting down.
  • What to say when your brain is blank and your body is activated.
  • Boundary + connection scripts you can actually use in real life.

Part 3 — After the moment

  • Repair prompts for when you snapped (no shame spiral required).
  • How to reset the tone of the house without over-apologizing.
  • Re-connection steps that rebuild safety (for both of you).

Part 4 — Make it stop repeating

  • A “next time” plan so the scene doesn’t keep replaying.
  • One small support move that makes the biggest difference.
  • A quick check-in you can revisit whenever life gets loud again.
Real talk: this is for the mom who’s done “knowing better” and wants a plan she can actually use when she’s triggered and tired.
