About this listen
What if the loving ways we try to help our anxious children are actually making things worse? In this eye-opening episode, we unpack the powerful insights from Breaking Free of Childhood Anxiety and OCD by Dr. Eli Lebowitz. Learn why well-meaning parental “accommodation” often feeds the anxiety cycle—and how a new approach rooted in support, not rescue, can lead to real change. We explore the science behind the SPACE program (Supportive Parenting for Anxious Childhood Emotions), share relatable examples, and offer practical strategies you can begin using today. If you’ve ever felt stuck between comforting your child and feeling like nothing’s working, this episode is for you. #mentalhealth #podcast #empoweredparents #lifesuccess #wellnessforlife
