In this episode of the Gentle Magic podcast, I'm delighted to share with you my interview with Child Psychiatrist Katheleen Friend MD. Her presence and insights are so healing and empowering.
I first got to know about Kathleen through her first children's book, The Greatness Chair, published in 2019. The tools she taught through this book empowered me with a new way to appreciate and help my children honor their unique greatness qualities on a daily basis.
In this interview, Kathleen gave her healing and empowering answers to my burning questions as a sensitive parent:
🎧 How do we hold space for ourselves as highly sensitive adults, and teach our children to honor and manage their sensitivity too?
🎧 How do you take care of your sensitivity on a daily basis so you can keep holding space for all these children and their parents who experience challenging situations?
🎧 When did you learn about Heart Rhythm Meditation and how did it shift your Child Psychiatry practice?
