Child psychologist and parent coach Dr. Ann-Louise Lockhart returns to the podcast to help us understand emotional intelligence—what it is, why it matters, and how we can nurture it in our kids from an early age. In this powerful and practical conversation, Carol and Dr. Lockhart discuss:
  • The 5 key components of emotional intelligence (EQ)

  • How EQ supports resilience in a world that increasingly demands it

  • Why today's kids struggle more with bouncing back—and how parents may unintentionally be contributing to this struggle

  • What Black parents need to consider as they raise confident, emotionally attuned children in a world that can often misread them

  • How to model emotional intelligence even when you're having an off day

  • The truth about failure, effort, and why “trying” is everything

Whether your child is melting down over the wrong color cup or you’re navigating teen turbulence, this episode is full of tools, insights, and encouragement to help you raise emotionally strong, resilient kids.
