In this episode, we slow it all the way down and help parents understand what’s actually happening beneath the surface. Type Six kids aren’t trying to be difficult, they’re wired to anticipate risk and protect themselves and the people they love.This compassionate, real-world guide walks parents through how Type Six energy shows up at different ages, why traditional reassurance and discipline often backfire, and what actually helps these thoughtful, loyal kids feel safe enough to grow. You’ll learn how to become the steady presence your child needs, not by trying to remove fear, but by walking beside them as they learn they can handle it. If you’ve ever felt worn down, confused, or unsure how to help your anxious child, this episode could be the clarity you've been searching for.Connect with Angela:Follow Angela on InstagramSubscribe to The Balanced Mama BlogGet In TouchGrab Your Extra Tools HereShop Our ProductsDisclaimerMusic by Mood Maze
