Building Resilience Through Quality Time (and Movies That Matter)
INAM 25-17 Summary:
Building Resilience Through Quality Time (and Movies That Matter)
In this special mother-daughter episode of It’s Not About Money, Charla is joined by her daughter Kate to explore how families can use storytelling—especially movies—to build resilience and connection.
With Matt out this week, the ladies dive into one of their favorite family traditions: watching meaningful shows together to spark conversation and create quality time.
Charla shares how she’s used family movie nights to go beyond simple entertainment, intentionally choosing films that highlight grit, perseverance, and hope. Using curated lists from Common Sense Media, she selects titles that inspire real discussion—and sometimes a little friendly teasing (yes, renting Ant-Man five times is now part of McKinley family lore).
Key Topics Covered
1. What Quality Time Really Looks Like
Sometimes it’s not about the perfect movie—it’s about being together and opening up meaningful conversations along the way.
2. The Power of Stories to Teach Life Lessons
Kids often learn best through observing others. Charla and Kate explain how resilience becomes real when kids see characters struggle, adapt, and overcome.
3. Movie Recommendations That Matter
From The Eagle Huntress to Dancing in Jaffa, Charla shares films (for all ages) that show powerful examples of courage and growth from around the world.
4. Why Listening Matters More Than Lecturing
Kate explains how these movie moments can lead to more authentic, less confrontational conversations—and Charla reminds us that sometimes, just listening is the best gift we can give.
Call to Action:
→ Choose a resilience-themed movie for your next family night.
→ Use it as a springboard for honest conversation and connection.
→ Find the full movie list in the show notes and this week’s blog.
