Welcome to Peace in Every Home, hosted by Heather Daly, OTR/L, holistic occupational therapist and guide in child development and family co-regulation.
If you’ve ever wondered how to actually support your child’s emotional growth, improve tricky behaviors, or create a calmer home without guesswork—this podcast is for you.
With thousands of clinical hours and a background in evidence-based therapy, Heather brings you practical neuroscience, regulation tools, and simple strategies to help kids (and parents) thrive.
Eight weeks ago I had my son, and my start to motherhood absolutely rocked me.
In this episode I tell you what happened: my blood pressure reading at week 40 that ended my home birth plan, the induction, and the weeks of house-shaking colic cries that followed. My initiation into motherhood taught me more than all of my clinical training ever could.
I also get into a shift I've made in my own work and why I'm no longer aiming for "calm." I explain what I aim for now, and share the exact mantras we say out loud in our house when my son is crying.
As always: take what's useful for you and leave the rest !!

Say Goodbye to Screen Time Drama
If you’ve ever felt lost in the modern parenting maze of screens, meltdowns, and boundaries... you’re not alone. In this episode, Heather breaks down the neuroscience behind screen time drama and gives you three powerful tools to create peace in your home (without villainizing technology).
You’ll learn:
1️⃣ Why not all screen time is created equal and how to tell the difference between connection-building vs. connection-breaking screen use.
2️⃣ How to “check yourself before you wreck yourself” by examining your own relationship with screens and modeling mindful tech habits for your kids.
3️⃣ What’s really happening inside a child’s developing brain, and why their “pause button” isn’t fully built yet.
Plus, Heather shares a key co-regulation insight: how your nervous system Bluetooths with your child’s, and how your calm presence teaches them balance in a hyper-stimulating world.
Bonus: Why your screen-time boundaries are valid and loving even if your child doesn’t like them in the moment—and how they protect your child’s attention, emotional stability, and long-term success.
Listen now to bring calm, connection, and clarity back to your family’s tech life.
