Raising Resilient Kids: Why Letting Go Is the Most Loving Thing You Can Do with Randi Crawford","description":"Parenting. Just that one word is enough to make your shoulders tighten, isn\u2019t it? In this episode, I sit down with Randi Crawford \u2014 certified life coach, speaker, author, and mom \u2014 to talk honestly about what it actually takes to raise kids who can handle life when you\u2019re not there to fix it for them. Randi spent years coaching young women before she realized the real work needed to happen one generation up \u2014 with the moms. What she found, over and over, was that the struggle these girls were experiencing traced directly back to one thing: parents who loved their kids so much they were accidentally getting in the way. We talk about why confidence can\u2019t be handed to a child through compliments, how social media has quietly eroded the trust moms have in their own instincts, and why the line between love and control is thinner than most of us want to admit. My own kids are 16 and 19 at the time of this recording. More than once during this conversation, I had to pause and sit with some honest self-reflection. I think you will too. If you\u2019re a mom and a woman entrepreneur, this one will speak to you in more ways than one. WHAT YOU'LL LEARN Why confidence is built through action \u2014 not compliments \u2014 and what that means for how we show up for our kids How social media has gaslit an entire generation of moms out of trusting their own gut The difference between helping your child and robbing them of something essential Why independence is the actual goal of parenting \u2014 and what stepping back actually looks like in practice How the lessons Randi teaches about raising resilient kids mirror what we work through every day in business   CONNECT WITH RANDI CRAWFORD Website: https:\/\/www.randicrawfordcoaching.com Instagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/randicrawfordcoaching TikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@randicrawfordcoaching   ABOUT RANDI CRAWFORD Meet Randi Crawford, a life coach, speaker, and mom redefining resilience for the next generation.
