By: Lynn Lyons LICSW Robin Hutson
  • Summary

  • Parenting isn't easy, and it's normal to worry. Lynn Lyons, therapist, author, and speaker is one of the world's experts on helping parents, kids, and teens manage anxiety. She talks with co-host and sister-in-law Robin Hutson in a weekly podcast full of laughs, and practical advice without the psychobabble. At the beginning of the pandemic, Lynn and Robin started the Flusterclux podcast when their parenting retreats went on hiatus, and they're now 2 years in, talking about anxiety and worry, their love for Mr. Rogers, and the crazy things the mental health field gets WRONG about anxiety.

Each episode is filled with practical advice for parents how to better manage their worry and big feelings like anger and sadness so that they are modeling healthy emotional awareness. Lynn answers listener questions and gives parents concrete strategies for developing the traits that are their kids' best defenses against anxiety and depression later in life: flexibility, resilience, autonomy, and problem solving.

A must- listen, esp. for parents-to-be!

I wish I had listened to this during my pregnancy. Our family would have turned out much healthier!
With the current mental health crisis so many are facing today, listening to these ideas and strategies is a must for every parent, because many of these problems are NOT chemical, but learned behaviors (or lack of learned skills thereof).
