Building trust with someone who doesn’t want to talk starts with safety, not words. Here’s why resistance makes sense—and what actually helps.

Burnout often eases in summer—but stress creeps back with shorter days, busy schedules, and shifting routines. Learn why fall can trigger burnout and discover simple, science-backed tools from CAMP to stay resilient and grounded this season.

Not all giving builds us up. When we give from depletion, we accelerate burnout. But when giving comes from choice, connection, and purpose—it fuels resilience. Discover the neuroscience behind giving that protects your mental health, and learn how to give differently this week.

Resilience is often praised in schools, healthcare, and parenting—but what if it sometimes misses the point? In this post, CAMP reflects on a conversation with Kerry Cavers of Moms Against Racism, exploring why true change means shifting from resilience to liberation, equity, and wholeness.

Resilience isn’t just about pushing through—it’s about belonging. In this post, Dayna Haig-Conway explores how resilience for frontline workers must shift from enduring more hardship to building stronger connections and psychological safety. Discover how belonging protects your brain and heart, and why CAMP is redefining resilience as professional survival.

Resilience isn’t always empowering—sometimes, it’s exhausting. In this episode, we talk with Kerry Cavers about equity, adversity, and redefining what it means to thrive. Liberation, not endurance, may be the path forward.

We often praise grit—but real resilience isn’t about pushing harder. It’s about aligning with your values, protecting your energy, and building motivation from a place of safety and purpose. This week’s reflection offers one simple way to reconnect with what matters most.

When you care deeply, it’s easy to forget yourself. But neuroscience shows that your ability to lead, connect, and respond calmly depends on your own well-being. This week, take 30 seconds to check in with yourself—because staying full from within isn’t selfish. It’s essential.

Leadership isn’t just about strength or confidence—it’s about regulation. When your nervous system is calm, your brain can access empathy, clarity, and long-term thinking. This week’s strategy is simple but powerful: name what you’re feeling. Because true leadership starts from within.

Pushing through isn’t the same as resilience. Motivation built on grit alone often leads to burnout. True motivation comes from safety, purpose, and belonging. Here’s how to reconnect with your values—and your spark.

When emotions run high and outcomes are uncertain, leadership gets hard. Discover how self-validation helps you lead with more resilience, clarity, and compassion.

If your child constantly forgets things or melts down over missing items, it’s not defiance—it’s a skill gap. Learn why disorganization happens and how to help without nagging.

If your child hits, bites, kicks, or pushes, it doesn’t mean they’re aggressive or “bad.” These intense behaviors are often signals of nervous system overwhelm—not defiance.

Sibling fights can wear you down fast.

Ever feel like you’re trying your best, but still falling short? You’re not alone—and you’re not broken. Dad Brain is the mental and emotional load Dads carry every day, often silently. This post unpacks what it is, why it happens, and simple strategies to shift from overwhelm to connection. You don’t need to be perfect—you just need tools that work for you. Welcome to CAMP. We’ve got your back.

Parents often think pushback means their child isn’t listening, but in reality, testing boundaries is how kids learn to trust them.

• don’t debate

• set predictable boundaries

• the science behind it

Even when you’re using the right strategies, some moments still feel impossible. That’s because kids don’t just need strategies…

• focus on what’s within your control

• set predictable boundaries

• understand the science behind it

Some kids explode, some withdraw, and some demand non-stop attention. The challenge? Most of us were never taught how to process emotions in a healthy way.
