414 Good Enough Parenting: What NOT to Do (with Dr. Lindsay Gibson)
About this episode
The episode discusses the importance of emotional maturity in parenting and what not to do as a parent with insights from Dr. Lindsay Gibson.
What if raising emotionally healthy kids has less to do with perfect parenting and more to do with emotional maturity? In this powerful conversation, I sit down with psychologist and bestselling author Lindsay C. Gibson to discuss her newest book, How to Raise an Emotionally Mature Child. We explore what emotional maturity actually looks like, how to respond with empathy when your child seems irrational, and specifically what NOT to do as a parent. Dr. Gibson shares practical wisdom for navigating parenting challenges at every stage—including the often-complicated teen years—and explains how parents can break generational patterns without carrying the impossible burden of getting it right all the time. Whether you're raising young children, parenting teens, or healing from your own childhood experiences, this conversation offers a compassionate roadmap toward deeper connection, resilience, and emotional health.
