Cultivating Resilience

Guest Speakers: Dr. Lisa Damour and Neena Rinan
In children, powerful emotions come with the territory. Contending with academic pressure, social media stress, worries about the future, and concerns about mental health, it’s easy for children—and parents—to feel anxious and overwhelmed. But it doesn’t have to be that way. Join Dr. Damour and Reena Ninan as they share clear, research-informed explanations alongside illuminating, real-life examples, giving parents the concrete, practical information they need to steady their children through the bumpy yet transformational journey into adulthood.

Dr. Lisa Damour and Reena Ninan co-host the podcast Ask Lisa: The Psychology of Parenting. Dr. Damour is recognized as a thought leader by the American Psychological Association. She writes about adolescents for the New York Times and appears as a regular contributor to CBS News. She is the author of two New York Times best sellers and the soon-to-be-published book, The Emotional Lives of Teenagers: Raising Connected, Capable, and Compassionate Adolescents. Reena Ninan is a television journalist who has worked as a White House correspondent, foreign reporter, and news anchor for CBS, ABC, and Fox News. She recently started her own media company, Good Trouble Productions.
