EP 66 - Clare Ford - Helping Your Child Discover Their Path

Many of my 1-2-1 young clients are unhappy because they feel that their future is not clear. For teenagers, this is a big deal. They are trying to work out where they fit in and where they are heading. For those who do not have a clear-cut view of their future, this uncertainty can be very destabilizing.   For many parents, this translates this to their kids lacking motivation and direction, which frustrates and scares them.   In this episode - Clare and I discuss the importance of allowing our children to take the lead!   You’ve heard the adage - “If you do what you love you'll never work a day in your life”.   Once our kids know where they are heading - and they are fired up about it - then they will be able to identify the inspired actions they need to follow their dreams.   Want to know more? Then Grab a cuppa - and keep listening! ~~~~~ More about Clare : Suicide rates are on the rise and mental health issues in our young people, the “lost generation”, are now the “silent” pandemic.  How do we support and raise their emotional literacy to guarantee their academic success?
