In this podcast episode, Tammy interviews Dr. Wiliam Stixrud about how to create a child who is motivated and not crippled by anxiety (based on his critically aclaimed book "The Self-Driven Child")and how to motivate children & teens without coercion or micromanaging. It is a radical shift for many parents to think of their role as a consultant instead of a manager. As parents, we can only drive our kids so far. At some point, they will have to take the wheel and map out their own path. But there is a lot you can do before then to help them tackle the road ahead with resilience and imagination.
