Summary

In this episode, we delve deep into the shifting paradigms of resilience and modern parenting. As societal ideals evolve, many grapple with irrational beliefs, often rooted in an "idealized should" that rebels against the harsh realities of life. But is this shielding mentality beneficial, especially when raising our future generation? We juxtapose the permissive parenting styles of today with the pressing need for mental fortitude. Are we unknowingly depriving our youth of learning to face life's 'nos'? Join us as we explore the implications of seeking a utopian childhood experience for our children and the pivotal role of resilience in preparing them for the real world.

0:00.0	Hello, and welcome to the show. This is emotional badass where Moxie meets mindful. I'm your host,
0:05.8	Nikki Eisenhower, life coach and psychotherapist. And on today's episode, I want to have a conversation
0:12.2	with you about resiliency.
0:14.0	So there's been a shift in recent years from resiliency to delicacy. And it very much relates
0:33.2	to the rising addiction, anxiety, depression, and suicide rates. And anytime I talk about these things,
0:40.7	there's so much that influences these dynamics. I can't possibly discuss it all. Our relationship
0:48.8	with resiliency is a really big deal. Resiliency is necessary to have a good life. And it's not spoken
0:56.9	about in mental health enough. There are cultural changes in parenting and in the ways that we live,
1:04.5	our very lifestyle that have been influenced largely from social media. And our mental health
1:11.0	individually and collectively are very much affected. And not so much for the better y'all.
1:18.7	I hope this episode shines light in some dark corners to help you see what might be there in
1:24.3	your psyche. To consider your subconscious life strategies, to bring them into the conscious
1:31.1	forefront. That's where we can work to change whatever you decide to change if you decide to change
1:38.2	something. There's so much you can do for yourself, your own life strategy, and if you're raising
1:45.2	children to help them grow resiliency. There's so much to strategize as a highly sensitive person
1:53.9	in the world. We are tasked with managing our energy. Everybody else is energy. The interactions,
2:02.7	the vibes, the verbals, the non-verbals, the good, the bad and the ugly, the manipulation,
2:08.9	the emotional blackmailing, the angry vitriol that can ensue. We're managing all of that all the time
2:16.6	on top of our to-do lists in our head and our critical voice and our wise woman or our wise man,
2:22.1	our inner child, our inner adolescent. We're so complex. We are managing so much.
2:29.8	What I want for you, me, all of us, is to live our best lives with clarity. A loaded up
2:38.9	fold of the brim coping strategy toolkit. We are experiencing stressors like the human
