@drbeckyatgoodinside: When your kid tells you something hurt, or scared them, or wasn't fair, it's so tempting to jump straight to "you're fine" or "it's not a big deal." We say it because we want them to feel better. But "I believe you" can do so much more. You don't have to agree with every detail or fix anything, you're just letting them know their experience is real, and over time that's how they learn to trust it themselves. This was such a great conversation with Kate Bowler. The full episode of the Good Inside podcast is out now, you can listen or watch at the link in my bio.
