    1KHO 498: How to Develop Brains That Are Capable of Enjoying Success | Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson, What Do You Say?
    2025/06/09
    If our kids are achieving but not thriving, what are we actually working toward? In this profoundly helpful and eye-opening conversation, Ned Johnson and Dr. William Stixrud—authors of What Do You Say? and The Self-Driven Child—return to share powerful insights about raising kids who can handle stress, stay motivated, and actually enjoy their lives. We talk about what it means to be a non-anxious presence, how our words and behaviors shape our children’s mental health, and why the “Yale or fail” mindset is doing far more harm than good. Packed with specific phrases to use (and avoid), guidance on school pressure and tracking apps, and wisdom from decades of working with anxious families, this episode offers a better way forward. If you’ve ever worried about whether you're doing enough—or doing it right—this one will help you exhale and refocus on what really matters: raising kids with resilient brains, meaningful relationships, and the capacity to experience joy. ** Learn more about Bill and Ned here Get your copy of What Do You Say? here Get your copy of The Self-Driven Child here Get your copy of The Self-Driven Child workbook here Learn more about your ad choices.

    2025/06/02
    What if the biggest risk to our children’s future isn’t failure—but our fear of it? In this bold and deeply affirming episode, Ginny Yurich is joined by bestselling author and father of four, Mark Gerson, to explore how overprotection is quietly robbing kids of the very traits they need to thrive: independence, resilience, and confidence. Drawing from his new book God Was Right, Gerson shows how timeless biblical truths—like “do not fear”—are being confirmed by modern social science, and why embracing those truths can change how we parent. This conversation covers everything from helicopter parenting and safetyism to peer pressure, adversity, and the importance of honoring children’s small steps toward freedom. With warmth and clarity, Mark explains how the smallest actions—returning a lost dollar, offering a smile, celebrating a milestone—are never just small. They are sacred. Packed with real-world examples, science, ancient wisdom, and hope, this episode is an invitation to raise stronger kids by doing less hovering and more cheering. You’ll walk away seeing your role—and your child’s potential—through a whole new lens. ** Get your copy of God Was Right here Learn more about Mark and all he has to offer here Learn more about your ad choices.
