Navigating Parenting Challenges

Starting school can be very exciting for many kids—but it can also be scary. We want to protect our kids, so when we see them worrying or anxious, we want to support them. But how do you help your child with school anxiety? 

Today, I’m joined by clinical psychologist Dr. Becky Kennedy, founder of Good Inside, to discuss anxiety about starting school, our role in it, and how to support our children if they’re feeling apprehensive. 

(This is the second episode of our 3-part back-to-school series. Catch Episode 133 on kindergarten readiness with Susie Allison of Busy Toddler and Episode 135 on supporting your child through transitions with Jess VanderWier of Our Mama Village.)
