Regulation.. How you doing?
Before we dive in, if you’ve enjoyed listening to this podcast, we’d love for you to give us a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ review on your favorite platform. Your support helps more educators find this content and keeps the conversation going!
In this episode, we’re unpacking one of the most misunderstood areas in education — student regulation after crisis moments. Too often, we assume students are “ready” or “regulated” simply because the chaos has stopped. But rushing back to routines or avoiding potential triggers can actually lead to a cycle of continued dysregulation — for both students and staff.
We’ll talk about:
💡 What regulation really means and what it looks like in practice
🧩 How to tell when a student is truly regulated and ready to return
⚡ Common misconceptions — like thinking “once they stop fighting, it’s over”
🚫 The hidden costs of avoiding dysregulation with students
💬 How to reduce staff anxiety and build confidence through modeling, support, and coaching
You’ll hear stories, practical strategies, and real talk about what it takes to stay calm, connected, and effective in the moments that matter most.
