Discussion 2: Building emotional resilience in children

Today, we understand that developing resilient qualities in our children is more than luck. It is a process that is well researched and understood.

This workshop presents a collection of PRACTICAL resilience building ideas, I call them the 10-Cs. They are can-do attitudes, confidence, connections, capacity to change, contributing to others, core value awareness, controlling what you can, communication, composed parenting and common sense.

You’ll adore the 10-Cs. They provide an insightful guide for parents to become the best resilience coach for their children. Here’s the thing: isn’t it ironic that our children’s resilience hinges on our knowledge, resilience, and how we model it over the first 20 years of their lives? They are dependent on us knowing how to invest and enable.
