230. My Daughter, My Hero

Parents pass down a lot of traits to their children, good and bad. So it’s easy to worry that your kids might have your same insecurities and challenges. But one listener shares a story about her daughter reacting to a situation in the complete opposite way than she would, and how delightful it was to watch as a mother.  _ If you have anxiety, depression or any sense of the world around you, you know that not *everything* is going to be okay. In fact, many things aren’t okay and never will be! But instead of falling into the pit of despair, we’re bringing you a little OK for your day. Every weekday, we’ll bring you one okay thing to help you start, end or endure your day with the opposite of a doom scroll. Created and hosted by Nora McInerny.
