S2 Ep9 - Beyond Toughening Up: Nurturing Resilience in Today's Teenagers

In this Episode, I interviewed Georgie Hookway from Elemental Living Healing, a holistic life coach and mentor for teenagers. We explore the importance of supporting the next generation, particularly teenagers, through holistic practices and mindfulness. Georgie shares her personal journey into holistic coaching, driven by her own health challenges and her desire to empower her children and their peers.  Georgie emphasised the importance of open communication between parents and teens, and parents modelling self-care. We concluded with advice for parents on supporting themselves to better support their teenagers. It was a heartfelt conversation about nurturing our next generation and the ripple effect of holistic practices.
