Starting school is a major milestone—for children and parents. In this episode of Raising EQ, we sit down for an honest, heartfelt conversation with a parent navigating the emotional and practical realities of school transitions. From first-day jitters to finding the right rhythm at home, we explore the anxieties, hopes, and small wins that come with supporting your child through new beginnings.
Whether you're a parent sending your little one off for the first time or helping an older child adjust to a new environment, this episode offers relatable stories, emotional insights, and practical strategies for fostering emotional resilience through change.
Join us as we talk about:
Preparing your child (and yourself!) emotionally for school
Handling separation anxiety with empathy
Building routines that support smoother transitions
Encouraging confidence and independence at every stage
Tune in to gain reassurance, laugh through the relatable moments, and walk away with tools to support your family through the ups and downs of school transitions.
