How Kids Really Build Confidence (Hint: It's Not Hand-Holding)
When should parents step back and let their kids struggle? Inspired by a scene from The Chronicles of Narnia where Aslan says, “Let the prince win his spurs,” this episode dives into how real confidence is built, not given.
From ancient rites of passage to modern over-parenting, we explore why facing hard things on your own is the key to growing up.
