033: How to Raise THRIVERS – Mentally Strong Kids with a “WE GOT THIS!” Attitude with Michele Borba
Manage episode 431484857 series 3541274
Not kidding, I referenced this interview FOUR times the same week we recorded — it’s THAT pertinent to our jobs as parents!
Today we’re focusing on the MOST important quality our kids need today – resilience. Michele Borba's book THRIVERS is about 7 teachable skills that set happy, healthy, and high-performing kids apart — and I believe those are listed in an intentional order.
If you find yourself wondering why some kids struggle and others shine, spoiler alert: It’s not about GPA.
This is a must-listen! Find out:
- Why Michele has never been more worried about this current generation – even before the pandemic (and it’s worse now)
- A toxic recipe for resilience that too many of us are using to raise kids
- What makes a child a “THRIVER” – having the skills and abilities to do well in the real world
- The power of observing your kids to focus on their current strengths
- How the 7 traits show up in kids (and how many your kids need to thrive)
- The 2 things all kids need to thrive and whether all kids are capable of becoming a thriver
- One question to ask yourself that will ensure you raise confident kids (this is powerful!!)
We both talk fast, folks, so buckle up for a WEALTH of valuable information that will change the way you think about your kids and the choices you make as a parent!!! The world needs this!
