Breaking Generational Parenting Patterns: Raising Emotionally Resilient Kids in Today’s World
from What The Shift · host gia lacqua
Parenting has always mattered. But parenting in today’s world requires something new. In this episode of What the Shift, I sit down with parent and family coach Nitza Jimenez to talk about what it really looks like to raise emotionally resilient kids, especially when we didn’t always see that modeled ourselves. We explore: How generational parenting patterns get passed down—and how to shift them The difference between control and connection Why emotional awareness is one of the greatest gifts we can give our kids How repair strengthens relationships more than perfection ever could What resilience actually looks like in tweens and teens This conversation isn’t about getting it “right.” It’s about growing alongside your children with intention. Because your kids are learning from you every day...not just from what you say, but from how you show up, how you regulate, how you repair, and how you evolve. Your children are growing up. And so are you. If you’re committed to raising emotionally healthy kids in a world that moves fast, this episode will leave you grounded, empowered, and reminded that awareness itself is a powerful shift.
