A Growth vs a Fixed Mindset In Parenting – How To Overcome Challenges And Boost Your Parenting ability

In today’s episode we are talking all about mindset, which is one of my favourite areas to talk about because it is such a powerful tool when it comes to our quality and fulfilment in life. Carol Dweck, a professor of psychology, identified that people tend to fall into two categories when it comes to mindset – a fixed mindset, where people believe their abilities and intelligence cannot be changed, and a growth mindset, where people believe they can develop and improve through effort, learning and perseverance. In this episode, I’ll be exploring how these opposing mindsets manifest when it comes to parenting, and the power that having a growth mindset has when it comes to overcoming challenges and obstacles, responding to criticism, handling stress and responding to the success of others. I’ll also be exploring where our mindsets are established, how we can nurture a growth mindset when it comes to our parenting, and how this can boost your parenting ability. For more information, head to the show notes: Episode 3 Show Notes And I’d love to hear your thoughts on this episode!
