Parenting and Leadership Through COVID Both Require Resilience with Kristin MacDermott
In this episode, Roxanne engages with Kristen MacDermott, a resilience researcher and family therapist. They delve into Kristen's unique approach to resilience training, its role in relationships, and her journey in the field. They discuss strategies for effective parenting, the challenges of homeschooling during lockdown, and the importance of self-care for caregivers. The impact of productivity on mental health is also touched upon.
We are looking at 2020 in our rear-view mirror, but we’re still in the thick of COVID. With lockdowns, social distancing, virtual work and online schooling, some of us are experiencing higher levels of stress and finding both parenting and leadership challenging. On this episode of Authentic Living with Roxanne, we welcome Marriage and Family Therapist, Kristin MacDermott to share some of her ideas about how resilience can help to improve relationships with your kids, spouse, family and team members.
Quote: “The root of most interpersonal conflict is unmet needs.” Kristin MacDermott
Kristin is a licensed marriage and family therapist with a decade of research in resilience. Her resilience-training programs have been validated in four studies with researchers from the Duke Clinical Research Institute, published in peer-reviewed journals, and proven to improve key mental health and resilience outcomes, including anxiety, depression, distress, self-efficacy, and PTSD. Kristin has designed resilience-training programs for some of the highest-performing people on the planet, including Navy SEALS and the LAPD. Her programs have been used in more than 20 hospitals across the country, including at the Duke Cancer Institute and the National Institutes of Health. She has also designed programs for school, corporations, and non-profits that support at-risk kids.
