Dr. Jordan describes how parents can help their daughter make good sense of the adversities she’s faced so that she doesn’t lose sight of who she really is or see her self-esteem drop. A crumpled $100 does not lose its value, and no matter what adversities your daughter has experienced or mistakes she’s made, she is still worthy and deserving of love. Adversities your daughter faces can build character and resilience.“One small crack does not mean that you are broken, it means that you were put to the test and you didn’t fall apart.” Linda Poindexter; you are stronger & more resilient than you think; learn to focus on strengths that got you thruBessel van der Kolk: “Healing from trauma is as much about remembering how we survived as it is about what is broken”, remember and express gratitude to who helped you survive.Change often brings uncertainty, anxiety and self-doubt. Embrace the uncertainty and remember these words from poet Maya Angelou: “We delight in the beauty of the butterfly, but rarely admit the changes it has gone through to achieve that beauty.”Previous related podcasts by Dr. Jordan:The spiral of beliefs: how to help your daughter become unstuck
