You think you’re staying together for the kids. But are they truly safe—or just absorbing tension they can’t name?In this solo episode, I explore the neuroscience of “silent divorce,” where parents remain physically together but emotionally disconnected. Research shows this doesn’t protect children—it rewires their developing brains to expect instability, even when everything looks “fine.”You’ll learn:✅ Why kids internalize emotional misalignment even without visible conflict✅ How chronic tension changes identity and self-regulation✅ Simple steps to create congruence and emotional safety at homeThis episode isn’t about blame—it’s about awareness. And when you shift what your nervous system broadcasts, you change what your child inherits.📒 Order my new book Help in a Hurry:<a href="https://www.helpinahurrybook.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> www.helpinahurrybook.com</a>✏️ Don’t just cope—thrive: enroll in the Help in a Hurry Course now for $50 off and a signed book, only at www.helpinahurrycourse.com📫 Join 250,000+ readers:<a href="https://drleaf.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> https://drleaf.com</a>🖥️ Watch on YouTube: / @drcarolineleafGET IN TOUCH:🌍<a href="https://drleaf.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"> My Website</a>📸 Instagram: / drcarolineleaf🐦 Twitter: / drcarolineleaf💻 Facebook: / drcarolineleafAd Partners:BiOptimizers: Get 15% off bioptimizers.com/drleaf with code DRLEAF.CreaTone Brickhouse: Get 20% off your first order at ToneToday.com and use my code DRLEAF for your discount.&nbsp;Veracity: Head to VeracitySelfCare.com and use code DRLEAF for up to 45% off your order.&nbsp;DISCLAIMER: This podcast and blog are for educational purposes only and are not intended as medical advice.
