Best Bits is changing! The OGs know it was once in two parts, well we are back there again! What was once part 1 and part 3 are now all combined into part 1. Lunchbox joins this weekend! He apparently thinks he’s living in a musical because he can’t stop singing songs. He admits he has crazy recall about moments from his childhood and opens up about life with three kids. Morgan mistakes her time in pre-school as kindergarten. Plus, you asked questions… they answered them about Lunchbox’s career path, Sore Losers, Morgan & Lunchbox collaboration videos, and Lunchbox getting a new car… one day!

In this episode, Leanne dives into emotional dysregulation—why your teen melts down over the smallest things and can't bring themselves back down.

When a teen experiences something that feels threatening, stressful, or overwhelming, their brain's alarm system (the amygdala) goes off and sends them into fight-or-flight mode. Their heart rate spikes, their breathing gets shallow, and their prefrontal cortex—the part of the brain responsible for rational thinking and emotional regulation—goes offline.

That's why your teen can't "just calm down" when you tell them to. Their "sound mind" is literally offline.

And here's the thing: In teenagers, the prefrontal cortex is still under construction. It's not fully developed until around age 25. So when a teen's brain goes into fight-or-flight, it's even harder for them to bring themselves back down.

But here's the good news: We can teach students how to regulate their nervous system. We can teach them how to go from fight-or-flight to calm in under 30 seconds. Even if they've never been able to calm down before. Even if meditation doesn't work for them. The way we teach it at Teenager Brain is different—it's a foolproof way to access the nervous system through the sensory system, and anyone can do it.

Leanne shares powerful examples of what changes when students learn to regulate—from handling friend drama without spiraling, to processing a bad grade without melting down, to navigating social media rejection without falling apart.

This is what happens when we teach students how to regulate their nervous system. Not perfection. Not eliminating hard things. Just giving students the tools to process their emotions, respond instead of react, and be emotionally available to themselves.

Ready to bring these tools to your school or teen? Head over to TeenagerBrain.com to request a free sample lesson. You'll see exactly how the Teenager Brain curriculum works and test-drive a full lesson yourself.

We're looking for our next 25 pilot schools for Fall 2026. This is a 4-week plug-and-play emotional fitness program that teaches students how to regulate their emotions, separate truth from lies, and build a self-image that lasts—without adding to your workload.

Amy and Kat are feeling wow'd, worried, and relieved. Amy’s Aura Ring is flagging mild stress and Kat has a new scary TV show rec: Widows Bay. Amy wants to know: What are you loving right now? Email or call…we want to know what you’re loving!! Her current obsession is green peas, so the bar is low. Surprisingly, peas have impressive health benefits. Kat shares that she’s loving frozen mango cubes. Pro Tip: Let them sit out of the freezer for about 5 minutes and then eat. A caller from Spicewood, Texas checks in with her home defense strategy…which includes a .38 caliber, bear spray, and as a child, a stick she called a weenie stick for reasons that are exactly what you think. Naturally, now we all need a weenie stick by our beds at night. They also get into signs you’re spiraling, the origin story of the bendy straw, a voicemail about the Chick-fil-A protein hack and another voicemail that reminds us that childhood trauma is more universal than we think. 

Have the day you need to have!
