Are We Raising Confident Kids… or Approval Addicts?
Podcast: The Really Very Crunchy PodcastPublished On: Fri Feb 27 2026
Description: In this week’s bonus episode, we’re talking about one of the biggest parenting tensions no one really prepares you for: are we supposed to constantly build our kids up, or do go all in on intrinsic value? What actually forms a confident adult? With a new baby on the way, parenting suddenly feels different at this stage of life. We’re older. A little calmer. Maybe a little more tired. And we’re raising a newborn alongside an 8- and 6-year-old who are very aware of everything. How does perspective change? What matters more this time?
