If you’ve ever felt like your child is carrying the weight of the world or maybe just your own stress, you’re not alone. And this episode is precisely what you need.
Eli Weinstein sits down with powerhouse parenting coaches and psychotherapists Maria Evans and Ashley Graber, authors of the groundbreaking new book, Raising Calm Kids in a World of Worry. These two have trained over 8,000 mental health professionals and worked with families across the globe, and now they’re breaking it all down for you.
This isn’t your typical “just breathe and stay positive” advice. We’re talking fundamental tools for real parents dealing with real chaos.
💥 In this episode, we dive into:
How your calm becomes their calm
What anxiety actually looks like in kids (it’s not always obvious)
The one thing most parents skip after a blow-up—and why it matters
The art of validating without over-accommodating
How to raise confident kids in an anxious world without losing yourself in the process
Personal. Practical. Powerful.
Ashley and Maria blend science, mindfulness, and personal experience into simple, effective strategies that can be applied at home. You’ll walk away feeling seen, supported, and ready to show up not perfectly, but powerfully.
🎧 Tune in now and learn how to parent with more calm, clarity, and confidence—even when anxiety is in the room.
