0:00.0	Welcome to the Strong Women Podcast, where each week we explore a deeper understanding of the humanity, value, intellect, and creativity of women.
0:10.6	I'm Erin Kunkel.
0:11.9	And I'm Sarah Stone Street. We're so glad you're here.
0:19.1	Welcome back to the Strong Women Podcasts, and Erin and I are going to talk about our conversation with Kathy Cook.
0:25.9	Kathy has already been on the podcast.
0:28.2	Like, this is her third time, right, Aaron?
0:31.5	And she said, maybe I should just be a frequent guest.
0:35.0	And we were like, sure, let's do that because we just love Kathy
0:38.0	and we're so grateful for all the work that she does, both for kids and for us. And like we said
0:44.0	at the very beginning of our conversation with her, as in all the books that I've read of her so
0:50.5	far, they're designed for parents to help them parent their children, but I always learn
0:58.9	more about myself and those that I love in reading her books. And it's the same with this
1:05.6	conversation that we had with her about resiliency. So her book is called Resilient Kids, Raising Them to
1:14.3	Embrace Life with Confidence. Like I just said, I learned a lot about some ways I could improve on
1:20.8	that and also some challenges that I feel that I face with resiliency. And since 2020, I feel like the lack of resiliency has been
1:32.2	magnified. I would encourage you all to listen, no matter what season of life that you're in,
1:37.7	to our conversation with Kathy, because I think you'll pick up some things that will be
1:41.7	helpful in your own life and in the way you interact with other people. But just to start us off, I'm going to read a quote. Kids aren't
1:50.2	as fragile as we tend to think. This is from her book, Kathy's book. They are born with strengths
1:57.0	and abilities to cope with adversity, learn from their mistakes, and mature into
2:03.5	responsible, competent adults. And sometimes I think we forget that. We don't have to
2:11.8	protect them from everything because we know we can't. And that God has gifted them with the ability to mature through hardship.
