As moms of boys, we often see symptoms of anxiety but don't know how to help without overparenting. You might notice your son having stomach aches, resistance to social situations, or trouble at school—all potential signs of anxiety that's going unaddressed.
In this eye-opening conversation, I'm joined by Dr. Robin Graham, author of "You, Me and Anxiety - Take Action Over Anxiety to Enjoy Being You". She shares her personal journey with anxiety and how she helped her son navigate his own anxiety struggles. We dive into practical strategies like the powerful Five C's journaling method and discuss how to create a safe space for our boys to talk about mental health.
