Resilience isn't a trait kids either have or don't — it's something they build through repeated experiences of feeling hard emotions and getting through them, with a present and steady parent by their side. In this episode, Susan Stiffelman, Dr. Tina Payne Bryson, and Dr. Laura Markham explore why our instinct to fix our children's disappointment can actually work against us — and what to do instead.

  • What "brain reps" are and why your child's meltdowns are actually opportunities in disguise
  • Why the urge to fix your child's distress can communicate the opposite of what you intend
  • Why emotion coaching — not problem solving — is the essential first step toward resilience
