Karen shares with us:
- How much power parents have to strengthen their children through anxiety and to help them to use anxiety to be brave.
- She shares how the amygdala works and how we our kids are looking to feel safe and how much of our own anxiety gets triggered because we are hard-wired to want to protect them.
- She gives us tools to help your kids with big emotions and to be that safe place that they so desperately need.
- And we talk about Karen’s two latest books and how to strengthen the mental wellness of our children and adolescents.
