355: The Secret to Raising Resilient, Emotionally Healthy Children | Dr. Billy Garvey

In this episode I sit down with Dr. Billy Garvey, a developmental pediatrician with over 20 years of experience helping children and families navigate growth, resilience, and mental health. Dr. Garvey is also the author of Ten Things I Wish You Knew About Your Child’s Mental Health, Australia’s #1 parenting book, where he breaks down the complexities of child development in a way that every parent can apply in daily life. We explore the influence of film and pop culture on kids, the difference between time out and time in parenting, and how childhood trauma impacts both behavior and long-term health. Dr. Garvey shares practical tools for navigating tough parenting moments, supporting anxious or “angry” children, and teaching kids emotional regulation, morals, and manners.  → Leave Us A Voice Message!
