In this episode, Lauren dives into the first two of the 4 Ps—Practitioner and Patient—focusing on strategies to move organizations from a survival state into a healthier, more regulated space. She begins by explaining the 4 Ps (Policy, Practice, Practitioner, Patient) and how to identify their roles within an organization. Lauren connects these concepts to the Five Ives framework, highlighting how aligning the 4 Ps with its principles can create a more balanced environment.
For the Practitioner, Lauren emphasizes the importance of equipping leaders with tools to recognize their own survival states and communicate their needs effectively. She shares practical regulation strategies like temperature exposure, music, and shock techniques to address overwhelm in the moment. Transitioning to the Patient, Lauren explores the power of co-regulation when supporting dysregulated individuals, offering actionable scripts and examples for building rapport. She also discusses ways to introduce regulation education into shared spaces, such as offices, waiting rooms, and classrooms, to foster a culture of calm and responsiveness.

In this episode, Lauren introduces the 4P framework, a tool designed to evaluate and improve workplace culture. It focuses on four key areas: Policy, Practice, Practitioner, and People—each representing a different facet of an organization. By examining these components, we help organizations apply the Five Ives framework to their organization, ensuring that culture is evaluated at every level.
We also explore how the Five Ives framework complements the 4Ps. Leaders are encouraged to audit themselves and assess where they stand on the 5 Ives scale for each of the Ps. The goal is to influence workplace culture in a way that motivates employees, reduces turnover, and creates an environment where people genuinely want to show up every day. Our team guides organizations through this process, helping them implement actionable strategies based on the audit results.

In this episode, Lauren explores the "Five Ives" framework, a powerful tool for understanding and navigating emotional regulation. She explains how each stage—from *Survive* to *Hive*—represents a natural response to life's challenges and emphasizes that no stage is inherently negative. While certain stages are best not to linger in, they are all part of the biological journey.
Lauren shares her own story of moving through these stages, drawing from past trauma and offers practical guidance for identifying your current stage and working towards the stages you aspire to reach.If you haven't already, check out Five Ives to see how strategies like this can be applied to adults, especially in the workplace.

In the final episode of the emotional regulation series, Lauren dives into the third step: problem-solving. If you haven’t listened to the previous two episodes, be sure to check them out first. Sometimes, emotional dysregulation stems from a recurring issue that can’t be resolved with regulation techniques alone—it requires working through the problem itself.
Lauren walks through the importance of keeping communication simple: "You felt, I felt, problem, solution."
With problem solving, timing is key—you can’t address problem-solving when a child is dysregulated or immediately after, as this could re-trigger them. The goal here isn’t to teach a lesson, but to collaboratively solve a problem in a way that helps children feel heard and open to solutions.
Don’t forget to share what you’ve learned, write it down, and apply these strategies in real-life situations!
