What typically happens… you decide on something you want or need. Then you get excited – and say “I’m gonna go for it!” With enthusiasm and excitement. You actually believe that you are going to be successful. Nothing can shake your confidence and commitment. Then, just as quickly, reality sets in, no one is watching and those few who knew of your plan aren’t going to say anything. Often times, n

o one knew of your plan, so it easily fades away. You lose that enthusiasm down to zero nothing. Back to reality and normalcy. Nothing gained nothing lost. You are not alone.

5 Powerful Ways to Support Your Anxious Child

Parenting a child with anxiety can feel overwhelming, but you are not alone! With the right tools and strategies, you can help your child navigate their emotions and build confidence. Here are five practical ways to support your anxious child.

1. Create a Safe and Supportive Environment
Your child needs to feel heard and understood. Encourage open conversations about their worries without dismissing or minimizing them. Validate their feelings by saying things like, "I see that you're feeling nervous, and that's okay. I'm here to help you through this." A calm and reassuring presence can make all the difference.

2. Teach Coping Skills
Help your child develop practical strategies to manage their anxiety. Deep breathing exercises, mindfulness, and grounding techniques (like naming five things they can see, four they can touch, etc.) can help them regain a sense of control when anxious feelings arise.

3. Encourage Gradual Exposure
Avoiding anxiety-provoking situations reinforces fear. Instead, support your child in facing their fears gradually. Break challenges into small, manageable steps, and celebrate their progress. For example, if they fear speaking in class, start with practicing at home, then answering one question in class, and so on.

4. Model Healthy Coping Strategies
Children learn by watching their parents. Demonstrate how you handle stress in a positive way. Whether it's taking deep breaths, exercising, or practicing self-care, showing your child that managing anxiety is possible helps them feel more secure.

5. Establish Routines and Predictability
Structure and consistency provide a sense of security for anxious children. Create daily routines to reduce uncertainty, such as consistent bedtime, meal times, and homework schedules. If changes are coming, prepare your child in advance to help them adjust more easily.

You Are Not Alone!
Supporting an anxious child takes patience, but small steps lead to big progress. By creating a safe space, teaching coping strategies, and modeling healthy behaviors, you are helping your child build resilience.

Today, we honor the beauty of Kwanzaa, a celebration of unity, purpose, and resilience. As the candles burn bright, may we reflect on the richness of our heritage and the strength of our community.

Let this season be a reminder of our two of our shared values—Umoja (Unity), Ujima (Collective work and responsibility), and the power we hold to create, build, and thrive together.

Sending you light, love, and the spirit of Kwanzaa, from my family to yours. Let’s continue to rise, rooted in tradition, and filled with hope for the future. ❤️🕯️✨

**🎄 Thriving in the Spirit of Christmas 🎄**

Today is Christmas—a day that carries so much meaning, joy, and, for some of us, an ache in our hearts. Here's the thing: even in the midst of pain, we can endure. Not just endure—we can *thrive*.

Traditions don’t have to stay fixed; they can flex, stretch, and grow to fit the shape of this season in our lives. In our family, we’re moving things around—opening gifts at a different time, rearranging Christmas dinner—all to embrace the reality of loved ones who can’t be here today.

And guess what? It’s going to work out. Because the spirit of these holidays isn’t in the *how* or the *when*—it’s in the *why*. It’s about love, connection, and the moments that hold us together, no matter the distance, no matter the shift in tradition.

So, here’s to you. Whether your day looks picture-perfect or it feels a little scattered, you have the power to create joy in the here and now. Sending you energy filled with peace, calm, and a deep, enduring love. You’ve got this. ❤️

Trauma, both seen and unseen, has a sneaky way of seeping into every crevice of our existence, leaving us feeling like mere shells of ourselves. It's the silent force that drives our actions, our reactions, and our interactions with the world around us.
