Every parent longs to protect their child from harm and disappointment, but the realities of COVID-19 remind us all how little is truly in our control. While we can’t shield our children from every threat, we can empower them to grow stronger and overcome adversity with a growth mindset. In this virtual panel, five leading professionals will gather online to discuss…

The difference between a growth mindset and a fixed mindset—and why children with a growth mindset thrive
Simple steps you can take to nurture a growth mindset in your child
What to say (and what not to say) to boost your child’s confidence when they need it most
Strategies for raising children who persist in adversity, seek help when they need it, and embrace challenges as opportunities to learn
