Resiliency Resources
Welcome, parents looking to build resiliency in their kiddos!
In my latest book, Raising Resilient Sons, I share stories, strategies, and encouragement to help you raise your child to be compassionate, empathetic, and emotionally intelligent. This topic is near and dear to my heart and I, as mom of four children myself, have searched for years to find resources that would help me build resiliency in my own kiddos.
Resiliency is something all parents want their children to thrive in, but also something we struggle to help them with. Seeing your child fall triggers the impulse to rescue them, and emotional intelligence, grit, and empathy aren’t skills we can teach with step-by-step instructions, like tying your shoes. These are skills that require as much introspection as repetition, a journey you take with your children more than a torch you pass to them.
Fortunately, you are the perfect person to help your child grow more resilient! In addition to my book, I’m sharing all the resources available to you here on my site. Take your time looking through the posts, podcasts, books, and more – everything you need to help grow more resilient children. Bookmark this page so you can check back any time you need encouragement or refreshers, and feel free to contact me for any more help you may need!
