395- You’re Doing Everything "Right"-- So Why Isn’t It Working? with Diane Toups Goyette, MA

You’re listening to Voices of Your Village, and today we’re talking about what’s actually behind behavior.
In this episode, I’m joined by Diane Goyette, and we’re digging into the shift from trying to manage behavior to truly understanding it. We talk about what kids are communicating through their actions, how nervous system needs show up in everyday moments, and why so many of the strategies we were taught just don’t work for every child.
We also get into what this looks like in real life, from sensory needs and neurodivergence to those chaotic, get-out-the-door mornings where it’s hard to slow down and see what’s actually going on.
If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the “right” things and it’s still not working, this conversation will help you zoom out and look at behavior through a different lens.
Alright folks, let’s dive in.
