Dr. Matt Biel and Dr. Vilma Reyes on Raising Resilient Kids

How do we raise healthy, resilient kids? In this episode, we’re exploring what families need to make mental health a priority for children, just like brushing their teeth or getting a checkup. This is a conversation recorded live at the Thrive Center’s Innovation Hub Solution Fair in Washington, D.C., featuring Dr. Matt Biel, Director of Georgetown’s Thrive Center for Children and Families, and Dr. Vilma Reyes, Director of Training and Community Programs at the Child Trauma Research Program at UC San Francisco. Together, they share how communities, families, and parents can navigate uncertainty and anxiety, while making room for joy, too.

Talkaboutable is produced by Lemonada Media, in partnership with the Ohana Center for Child and Family Mental Health at Montage Health, and made possible through funding from the Montage Health Foundation. Together, we are committed to helping families talk about the issues children, teens, and young adults are facing today. We believe that when these conversations happen at home — even about the most challenging subjects — children build the skills they need to flourish. Because when families are connected, the hard moments become more bearable, the good moments become even better, and it all becomes Talkaboutable. Stay up to date with Lemonada on X, Facebook and Instagram at @LemonadaMedia.Joining Lemonada Premium is a great way to support our shows and get bonus content.
