Episode 60 - Supporting Children After Setbacks and Building Resilience with Ramita Anand

How can parents help children recover when things don't go to plan? In this episode, I'm joined by Ramita Anand, teacher, educational mentor, and creator of the Elevate programme, a mentoring programme supporting preteen girls. Together, we explore how parents can support children to navigate setbacks, build resilience, and experience repair after mistakes, disappointments, or struggles. We talk about why mistakes matter, how growth actually happens through challenge, and the role parents play in creating emotional safety while not rushing in to rescue. We also reflect on modelling resilience as parents, normalising difficulty, and helping children learn that struggling doesn't mean failing — it means growing.
