Helping Your Child Manage Anxiety with Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge HPC: E87

Funny story - we filmed this interview before anyone knew what "quarantine" was or why the coronavirus was going to take over our lives...but boy, is it more relevant than ever!!

We know that (even before all this) anxiety was becoming a big issue for kids of many ages. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge is an expert on kids' mental health and wise voice for parents, and I'm so honored that she found the time for us! With truly 50% of kids experiencing anxiety, all parents need this one.

You'll learn:

* Why we have so much more anxiety these days (even before shelter-in-place orders!)
* What factors are making kids less resilient, both physically and mentally
* The difference between stress and anxiety (and how parents can know if their child struggles with anxiety)
* Why "people pleasing" can lead to anxiety
* A practical to-do list for parents to help kids deal with anxiety gracefully
* Yes, foods CAN affect mood - we talk about best foods to eat and avoid + Dr. Ro's fav supplements for kids
* Something to implement right away to break the worry cycle

PLUS, Dr. Roseann is such an Italian-American New Yorker and I could just listen to her talk and tell stories all day! You're going to love this one. :)
