841: Dr. Catherine McCarthy, Dr. Heather Tedesco, and Jennifer Weaver: Raising a Kid Who Can
Dr. Catherine McCarthy, Dr. Heather Tedesco, and Jennifer Weaver are all mental health professionals who jointly co-authored RAISING A KID WHO CAN, a simple but comprehensive how-to parenting manual designed for the post-pandemic world. They were able to recognize that most parents' depleted attention and energy is in constant conflict with their desire to be guided by the most current, evidence-based information and best how-to strategies when it comes to their kids and mental health.\xa0\xa0\nWhat I love about this book is that it\u2019s organized for easy skimming and designed to be useful at any stage in a child\u2019s life.\xa0The book devotes one short, impactful chapter per principle, including Resilience, Attention and Self-Control, Psychological Flexibility, Self-Motivation, Compassion, and Gratitude. The result is a new approach to a parenting guide that takes a holistic approach to nurturing a child\u2019s development and helps parents get right to the information they need right when they need it most.\nListen in to hear Catherine, Heather, and Jennifer share:\n\nTheir invitation to parents to embrace and stay in this "The Age of Adaptability" without feeling chronically overwhelmed\n\nThe beauty of "the Age of Adaptability" for our kids\n\nHow to use a Validation Sandwich to help you or your child in a moment of struggle or unpredictability\n\nHow they formatted their book to be a guide you could immediately put to use without having to do heavy reading\xa0\n\nThe significance of knowing the WHAT, the WHY, and the HOW in how you parent in specific situations\n\nThe 10 Essentials of Raising a Kid Who Can\n\nHow to manage some of the paradoxes of parenting that often make us feel like we are getting it wrong\n\nThe problem with trying to \u201cfix\u201d your child\u2019s feelings\n\nLinks mentioned:\n\nLearn more: Raisingakidwhocan.com\n\n\nGet the Book: Raising a Kid Who Can\n\n\nConnect with Heather: www.drtedesco.com\n\n\nConnect with Jennifer: https://weaverandassociates.net\n\n\nBook: How to Talk So Kids Will Listen & Listen So Kids Will Talk\n\n\nRaising A Kid Who Can on IG\n\nWe love the sponsors that make this show possible!
