Joining me this week are Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson, co-authors of the bestselling book The Self-Driven Child and leading experts on the neuroscience of stress, motivation, and autonomy.
Together we explore:
Why a child’s sense of control is one of the strongest predictors of resilience, mental health, and stress tolerance.
How play, rest, and unstructured time uniquely support healthy brain development.
The hidden ways over-scheduling, overstimulation, and constant “fixing” can unintentionally increase anxiety.
What it really means to be a “non-anxious presence” — and how your calm helps regulate your child’s nervous system.
How to give kids space to struggle, experiment, and try hard things without overwhelming them or abandoning them.
Practical, research-backed strategies for helping kids feel both safe and capable in a world that often feels anything but.
Whether you’re raising a toddler or a teen, this conversation offers a grounded, science-backed reframe for understanding stress, resilience, and autonomy — and meaningful tools you can start using today to strengthen connection and help your child thrive.
