Growing Courage, Confidence & Connection with Karen Young

Behaviour, Big Feelings & Self-Regulation

Join Karen Young, acclaimed author and founder of Hey Sigmund, for an insightful and practical talk on helping children and teens navigate big emotions and challenging behaviour.

This engaging session will explore:
✅ Where big feelings come from and why they matter
✅ How to respond in the moment to build calm and connection
✅ Practical ways to support self-regulation and emotional wellbeing
✅ Why traditional discipline doesn’t work—and what to do instead
✅ How to set meaningful boundaries with love and leadership

Perfect for parents, carers, educators, and anyone supporting young people.
