Raising Resilient Kids - A Family Constellation Approach to Parenting
In this episode, we dive deep into a fresh perspective on parenting through the lens of Family Constellations. I unpack how our instincts to protect, worry, and smooth out every challenge for our children can unintentionally disrupt their personal growth and resilience.
I tell you the story of my children's experiences, and discusses the subtle ways that stepping in too muchā€”often driven by our own anxietiesā€”can make children feel small and hinder their ability to thrive independently.
You will explore why holding space without taking over is so important and learn the benefits of providing a stable "nest" rather than controlling the journey.
I shed light on the natural order within the family dynamic, explaining how honoring this hierarchy teaches children belonging, trust, and resilience. By embracing our role as guides instead of problem-solvers, we empower our kids to build confidence in themselves and face life's challenges with courage and resourcefulness. Tune in for a thoughtful take on how to let go, trust, and become a more grounded parent.
