In this episode, we explore the powerful insights from 13 Things Mentally Strong Parents Don’t Do by Amy Morin, a psychotherapist and mental strength expert.
The book challenges traditional parenting by focusing on what to avoid, not just what to do. Each chapter reveals a common yet harmful behaviour that well-meaning parents fall into, like shielding kids from pain or giving them power over adults, and offers practical tools for raising emotionally resilient children instead.
We discuss how mental strength isn't about being tough, it’s about teaching kids how to handle discomfort, build confidence through failure, and navigate life's challenges with grit and grace.
If you're a parent (or ever plan to be one), this episode will reshape how you think about strength, discipline, and emotional intelligence in raising the next generation.
🎧 Listen now to find out which of the 13 traps you might be falling into, and what to do instead.
