MINNEAPOLIS, July 24, 2026 — Leah Kuypers, Founder and CEO of The Zones of Regulation, joined the Unmasking Social podcast for a conversation about self-regulation and practical ways to support neurodivergent and neurotypical children, teens, and adults.
In the episode, “More Than Colors: Understanding the Zones of Regulation with Leah Kuypers,” Kuypers explores how regulation is an individualized process and discusses the importance of understanding what may be contributing to dysregulation, including trauma, sensory processing differences, and behavioral responses.
The conversation also covers how to individualize regulation tools and incorporate them into everyday routines, the role of emotion identification and interoception, strategies for creating supportive classroom environments, and the relationship between social-emotional regulation and behavior management during adolescence.
The episode is available to watch or listen to on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
