Surviving & Thriving: A Parent’s Guide to School Transitions

Tara's Take - Parenting, Education & Life With Kids

28-08-2023 • 31 mins

The back-to-school season is a bit of an emotional rollercoaster. Whether it's the unknowns of starting KG, the big jump  to grade one, or the tumultuous leap into high school, each transition carries its own set of expectations, anxieties, and adjustments.

Together with my insightful guest Amy Yeung, we peel back the layers of these transitions, offering you a fresh perspective to better understand and navigate these changes not just for yourself as a parent, but for your children as well.

Let's break away from the stereotypical  narratives and focus on what really matters — our children's well-being. How can we equip them with the skills to identify good peers? How do we alleviate pressure of transitions with realistic expectations?

Prepare yourself for an episode brimming with practical advice, empathetic discussions, and a fresh perspective on school transitions and friendships. This is not just about surviving the back-to-school season; it's about turning these transitions into opportunities for growth and resilience. Join us for this episode that promises to transform the way you perceive and handle school transitions.

This episode offers a glimpse into the Raising Resilient Children membership community - a resource dedicated to fostering resilience in our children. This conversation with Amy Young is not just about transitions and friendships, but also a wealth of knowledge on raising resilient children. Don’t miss out!
