Calling all my LinkedIn connections! This week, I will begin running my transitional-age support group. The purpose of this group is to help teach young adults (age 16-20) important life skills for adulthood (for example: when to go to the ER instead of a PCP, or how to even find a PCP). My question to you all... what do you wish you would have known before "being an adult"? What part of adult-ing do you wish would have been taught in high school?

Here, Dr. Kristin Neff suggests a powerful approach to teaching children self-compassion - by emphasizing the importance of being a good friend to oneself. She explains how encouraging children to consider how they would treat a friend in a similar situation can help them develop self-compassion and kindness towards themselves. By shifting their perspective, children can learn to be more understanding, patient, and supportive of their own struggles and mistakes. Don't miss out on Dr. Kristin Neff's full video to delve deeper into the subject and learn more about teaching self-compassion to children as well as yourself. #SelfCompassion #WorkingMoms #BeAFriendToYourself #KristinNeff #JNIWL #MLW #PositiveLeadHERship

I'm a mom to two teen girls, former teacher, and now educational consultant and coach. We talk a lot about how kids need to be more "resilient," but that isn't as easy as it might sound.
