Life can be hard, especially for our queer children. They often face unique obstacles, encounter discrimination, and endure marginalization in their lives and in their pursuits of happiness. Resilience helps our children (and us) cope with life's challenges and setbacks, allowing folks to recover and grow stronger from difficult experiences. Resilience fosters emotional regulation, optimism, and a strong support network, which are essential for maintaining mental well-being and overall life satisfaction. Joining us In the Den is Dr. Kate Lund, a licensed psychologist, Tedx Speaker, author of Stepping Away the Keys to Resilient Parenting, and an expert on the topic of resilience. Dr. Kate insists that resilience does not have to be complicated and that we all are capable of living our best lives, regardless of our setbacks.
