Building resilience for our children and ourselves
In this episode, join all five of the Toolbox Team, Lara, Alice, Belynda, Stacy and Kelly, for a strong and supportive conversation about what resilience really is, and how it looks for our families.
If you want to learn more about the building blocks of resilience, this is the episode for you.
You’ll hear more about:
Why resilience is NOT about gritting your teeth and going it alone
Resilience is when children know they’ve got someone to turn to - a space to make sense of what has happened
Why it’s not about perfection - stress and recovery builds resilience
How our kids have built resilience (and why things like winning against their parents can be so helpful!)
How to build resilience in medical scenarios, and why it is ok for it not to go perfectly - there is repair on the other side
How having a network of support builds resilience for parents
The unexpected benefits of learning to sit with discomfort, and how important it is to find the good stuff that’s already there - especially when things get tough.
