138: Helping Kids Practice Bravery with Dr. Kathryn Hecht (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if one of the best things you could do for an anxious, frustrated, or struggling kid is...do a little less? I know. Every parenting instinct in us is screaming, “Help them! Fix it! Tell them it’s going to be okay!” But Dr. Kathryn Hecht says there’s a problem with that last one: We’re not wizards. We actually don’t know that everything is going to be okay, and our kids are smart enough to know it too. So what can we say instead? In this episode, Dr. Hecht gives us an incredibly simple fo...
137: Raising Kids Who Can Handle Hard Things with Dr. Kathryn Hecht (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if one of our most loving parenting instincts is accidentally making our kids less confident? Oof. As parents, we’re wired to help. To reassure. To rescue. To make the crying stop in the grocery store before everyone in aisle seven starts judging us. (You know what I mean?) But child psychologist Dr. Kathryn Hecht says kids aren’t nearly as fragile as we sometimes treat them. In fact, they need age-appropriate challenges to build what she calls “handleability”, that deep-down belief that...
136: Simplifying Mealtime: Healthy Habits That Save Your Sanity (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Structure” might not be the most exciting word in parenting. In fact, if you’re anything like me, it might sound a little too much like schedules, color-coded charts, and someone who actually knows where all the matching socks are. I am not that person. But here’s what I’ve learned: structure isn’t about controlling our kids. It’s one of the ways we care for them. I was recently talking with an 11-year-old who, I realized, didn’t really have a bedtime. No adult was telling him when it was ti...
135: Starting Tweens and Teens Off Right with a Planning System that Actually Works with Megan Sumrell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever looked at your kid’s schedule and thought, “How are we supposed to fit all of this in?” School. Sports. Music practice. Homework. Clubs. Family stuff. That giant project they somehow remember at the most inconvenient possible moment. And then we wonder why our kids feel stressed…while we’re over here acting as the family calendar, reminder system, transportation coordinator, and human push notification. In part one of my conversation with productivity expert Megan Sumrell, we ta...
134: Using the Word "Overwhelm" Means You're in Time Debt. Here's How to Get Out - with Megan Sumrell (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Have you ever moved the same task from Monday’s list to Tuesday’s list...then Wednesday’s...and by Friday you’re pretty sure that task has taken up permanent residence there? Meanwhile, you’ve accomplished 47 other things. So why do you still feel behind? My guest Megan has a name for this: time debt. And once she explained it, I started seeing it everywhere. It’s a lot like financial debt. You begin today already owing yesterday, and tomorrow you’ll owe today too. Pretty soon, no amount of c...
