Teaching Bravery in Children with Dr Mary O’Kane

Teaching Bravery in Children with Dr Mary O’Kane

In this episode of The Mind Full Podcast, I sit down with the wonderful Dr Mary O’Kane to talk about what it really means to raise brave, resilient kids - and why “perfect” parenting isn’t the goal. If you’ve ever found yourself negotiating with a toddler before 7am or questioning every decision you make, you’re in good company.


Mary, author of Perfectly Imperfect Parenting, gently challenges the idea that we need to correct our children’s behaviour, and instead invites us to connect with what’s really going on underneath. We chat about tantrums, anxiety, emotional overwhelm, and why neither kids nor adults can simply “calm down” on demand.


I absolutely loved this conversation. Mary brings such warmth, humour, and deep understanding to both parents and children. If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I doing this right?”, this episode might help you be a little more patient - and a lot kinder to yourself.
