Welcome to Proper Mental episode 33, my guest this week is Becky Goddard-Hill!
Becky Goddard-Hill is a multi-award-winning writer and children's therapist with a post-grad in Psychotherapy.
She previously worked in social work as a child development trainer and as a children's bereavement therapist before having her own children.
She is the author of the ‘Create Your Own’ book series that deals with children’s happiness, emotional resilience, anxiety, worries, and happiness.
We chat about raising emotionally healthy children, allowing children to feel and vocalise their feelings, the importance of nature, building confidence and empowerment.
I really got a lot out of this one and everything we chat about is applicable to children of all ages and adults as well!
Becky has so much experience in this area and she was able to offer up loads of useful tools and ideas and really gave me an incredible insight in to the ways our childhood can shape our mental health as we journey through life.
Here’s the link for the Happiful Magazine article that I mention in the intro:
