Manage episode 444112448 series 3013058
In this episode, DJ explores the critical role bravery plays in a child's development and why our society needs courageous individuals more than ever. Bravery isn’t about being fearless—it’s about recognizing fear and choosing to act despite it. DJ offers practical tips for parents to foster bravery in their children, like modeling bold behavior, creating opportunities for safe risk-taking, and celebrating effort over perfection. She also discusses the importance of positive self-talk and reframing fear as a chance for growth and strength.
Beyond personal development, DJ highlights how society is in desperate need of brave individuals—people willing to stand up for what they believe, speak up when something is wrong, and get involved when they see a need. These qualities, while essential, are becoming increasingly rare. Now more than ever, it’s crucial to raise children who are equipped to make a difference.
Through age-appropriate conversations, role-playing, and sharing personal stories, parents can help their children understand and practice bravery in a way that empowers them to become the bold, compassionate leaders our world so desperately needs. Don’t miss this insightful conversation on how to foster a culture of courage at home and raise the next generation of changemakers!
