Yes! As someone who works in adult mental health and has faced my own struggles, I deeply understand how important it is to give children as much unconditional love as possible—so that they grow up knowing their worth.

Because the world will try.

It will hand them scripts written in fear, in comparison, in silence.

It will tell them who to be, how to behave, what to chase — and what to abandon.

And if we’re not intentional, they’ll trade their truth for someone else’s version of success.

Ralph Waldo Emerson’s wisdom reminds us that contradictions should never lead to bitterness. Instead, when we face opposition, we should stay true to our purpose and remain unshaken in our path. Growth often comes through challenges, and in each contradiction, there lies an opportunity for deeper understanding. 🌱🌟

A lot of my work focusses on resilience. I really think an important aspect of resilience is self-compassion (instead of rumination), compassion for others (instead of always focussing on self), and emotional agility (vs fragility).

I love Susan David’s work on emotional agility. So important.

Yes, sometimes our emotions can drive us crazy. But did you know that they are also an incredible source of data, a way to learn how to be in the world? In this week’s podcast, I spoke with author, speaker and Harvard-trained psychologist Dr.
