Raising Resilient Kids
Life is challenging for our kids. And if it’s not yet, it’s going to be. That means our kids need to be strong in all kinds of weather, so they can weather every kind of storm.
And what parent doesn’t want their child to be able to get through life’s many challenges and come out the other side – dare we say it – stronger and better?
That means raising resilient kids.

Why do we want resilient children?
Being resilient doesn’t mean our kids won’t have to go through stormy weather. It just means that our kids will be able to bounce back from life’s hard knocks and return to normal, healthy functioning more quickly and with less lingering effects.
Instead of drowning in negative emotions, they’ll have the ability to explore new ways forward to get to where they want to be. So their developmental progress isn’t thwarted by some difficult circumstances.
Sounds great! But how in the heck do we do it when we’re strapped for time and mental energy? Fortunately, our panel of speakers are experts in resilience. And each has combed through the research and translated it into practical tips you can put into action straight away.
Tune in for 10 eye-opening sessions (and a bonus live Q&A finale). Together we’ll explore how you can ensure the environment you’re raising your kids in, and the psychological, social and emotional habits you’re instilling, will support their resilience.
Renee –
Loved this summit. I got so much out of each of the presenters. The advice given aligns with the type of parent I strive to be. I may not be there yet but the tips and information provided in the summit has helped me understand the reasons behind some behaviours and some strategies to support my girls and their emotions. Thank you Justin for putting this together.
