    Is Your Child's Self-Worth Tied to Achievement? How Parents Can Build Lasting Confidence with Dr. Carla Caturia, EP 159

    Send us Fan Mail Is Your Child's Self-Worth Tied to Achievement? What happens when a child's confidence depends on their performance? In this episode of That's Good Parenting, Dori Durbin sits down with Dr. Carla Caturia, elite mental performance coach, speaker, and founder of House of Rise, to explore how parents can help children build confidence without tying their worth to grades, sports, or accomplishments. Dr. Carla works with tweens, teens, young adults, athletes, and families who are navigating perfectionism, anxiety, fear of failure, and the pressure to succeed. Having experienced achievement-driven perfectionism herself, she now helps families break the cycle by developing emotional resilience, healthy self-talk, and lasting confidence. Together, Dori and Carla discuss how well-meaning parents can unintentionally increase pressure by trying to fix problems too quickly, offering advice instead of listening, or focusing more on outcomes than growth. One of the biggest takeaways from this conversation is the importance of helping children separate who they are from what they achieve—a shift that can reduce anxiety, build resilience, and help kids enjoy the activities they love again. In This Episode You'll Learn Why high-achieving kids often tie their self-worth to performanceHow parents unintentionally add pressure—even with the best intentionsSimple phrases that help children feel heard instead of immediately "fixed"Why allowing kids to solve age-appropriate problems builds confidenceHow positive self-talk shapes emotional resilience and long-term successPractical ways to encourage growth without fueling perfectionismWhether you're raising an athlete, an honor-roll student, a performer, or simply a child who puts a lot of pressure on themselves, this conversation will give you practical tools to help your child thrive with confidence instead of fear. About Dr. Carla Caturia Dr. Carla Caturia is an elite mental performance coach, speaker, and founder of House of Rise. She helps tweens, teens, young adults, athletes, and families build resilience, confidence, emotional intelligence, and healthy relationships without becoming consumed by pressure, anxiety, or achievement.

    Baby's Here, So Now What? Newborn Support, Postpartum Recovery, and Real Help for New Parents with Jennifer Tawil | EP155

    Send us Fan Mail Have you ever brought home a new baby and wondered why no one prepared you for what comes next? In this episode, Dori Durbin chats with certified postpartum doula and founder of Lean On Me Westchester Doula, Jennifer Tawil, about one of the biggest transitions families experience: the postpartum season. Jennifer shares her personal journey from private investigator to postpartum doula and explains why so many parents spend months preparing for birth but very little time preparing for life after baby arrives. Together, they explore the realities of postpartum recovery, the importance of building a support system, and why asking for help is often harder than it should be. You'll learn: • Why postpartum planning is just as important as birth planning • The emotional and mental health challenges many new parents face • Why accepting help can be so difficult for parents • Simple ways to prepare your home for a smoother postpartum experience • How postpartum doulas provide practical and emotional support for families • Jennifer's "Trust But Verify" approach to choosing childcare providers • Strategies for helping children adjust to new siblings, caregivers, and life transitions If you're expecting a baby, supporting a new parent, or looking for simple ways to reduce stress during one of life's biggest transitions, this episode is for you. About Jennifer Tawil Jennifer Tawil is a certified postpartum and infant care doula, founder of Lean On Me Westchester Doula, and creator of the Trust But Verify childcare interview system. Along with her team, Jennifer supports busy parents of newborns with the non-judgmental, compassionate care they deeply desire but rarely receive. Jennifer's passion for postpartum support was inspired by her own experience as a new mother. After struggling with anxiety, isolation, and breastfeeding challenges following the birth of her son, she experienced firsthand how life-changing the support of a postpartum doula can be. That experience ultimately led her to leave a 25-year career as a private investigator and dedicate her work to helping families navigate the transition into parenthood with greater confidence and less stress. Today, Jennifer helps parents prepare for birth, recover during the postpartum season, and build the support systems they need to thrive. Through her signature #CompassionInAction approach, she provides practical guidance, emotional support, and hands-on care that allows parents to focus on bonding with their baby while feeling supported every step of the way. Whether supporting first-time parents or families welcoming their fifth child, Jennifer's mission is simple: to help parents feel calm, confident, and cared for during the first weeks and months at home with a newborn.
