January 26
18 mins

Episode Description

“I can’t do it!” - as parents we hear this all the time.


Our children are learning new skills and experiencing new things every day, which means they are always facing things they’ve never done before. This can be scary, and often our kids might think they can’t do it or they’re not good enough.


That’s why building resilience is so important. It gives them the foundation they need to persevere, to fail without fear, and to find that inner strength when things feel tough or challenging.


In today’s bucket emptying I’m going to share five things you can do to create that shift, and help to build that resilience. And the best part: these are things you can start doing right now.


So pour yourself a cuppa, find a comfy seat, and enjoy the conversation…
