104 | Raising Resilient and Independent Children in a Generation of Dependency by Chris and Holly Santillo

Today’s episode with Chris and Holly Santillo discusses the importance of teaching our children independence and resilience in a generation that has become heavily focused on dependency.

Many millennial parents are fearful of allowing their children to live independently because they worry about the disconnect in the relationship. However, Chris and Holly discuss how independence actually creates a real connection between parent and child. 

They discuss the importance of allowing our children to explore, to make decisions on their own, to fail and learn from that failure – and so much more.
