Kids These Days: Rethinking Youth Mental Health with Will Dobud
TRIGGER WARNING: Discussion around suicide, mental illness and self-harm.


Despite more counsellors, resources, and “expert” advice than ever before, rates of anxiety, depression, self-harm, and suicide in teens keep climbing. So… what’s going wrong? And what actually helps?


In this episode, I’m joined by Will Dobud — therapist, researcher, parent, and co-author of the upcoming book Kids These Days: Understanding and Supporting Youth Mental Health — to explore why our current approaches to teen mental health are missing the mark, and how we can shift from “fixing” to truly supporting our young people.


We dive into:

  • Why well-meaning adult interventions often backfire
  • The four pillars that build resilience: connection, mastery, gratitude, and independence
  • How to see your teen as the hero of their own story, not a problem to solve
  • Practical ways to reconnect with a teen who’s shutting you out

Whether you’re a parent, educator, or just someone who cares about the next generation, this conversation will challenge your assumptions and leave you with hope and tools you can use today.
