Noodles In the Sandbox - Episode 102 - The Discomfort Zone
Manage episode 442917055 series 3604658
In this episode of Noodles in the Sandbox, Angela, Tara, and Nick dig into the often uncomfortable topic of, well, discomfort! Whether it’s boredom, frustration, or failure, the trio talks about the role discomfort plays in helping both parents and kids grow. How much discomfort is too much? When should parents step in, and when is it better to let kids wrestle with challenges on their own? We chat about how to balance patience with progress, embrace boredom as a creative spark, and find growth even in those "cringeworthy" parenting moments. Plus, we share personal stories, strategies for building resilience, and—of course—plenty of laughs along the way. Join us as we navigate the tricky path of parenting in a world that often feels anything but comfortable. See you in the sandbox!
