In this episode I am being interviewed by Wade Bergner of Real U Academy. The topic we address is the fact that too many children believe that, 'I Am Not Enough.' It is a hugely important topic. This 'not enough' feeling has been called low self-belief, low self-esteem, low self-worth but I believe this 'not good enough/not enough' feeling that some children grapple with, goes deeper than that.
In this interview I talk about:
Why would a child develop a belief that, 'I am not enough.'
How does this happen.
How can parents avoid triggering this belief in a child.
What can parents do to rewire the "I am Not Enough' to, 'I am SO Enough.
