1 Insight From Me
Book: 13 Things Mentally Strong Parents Don’t Do by Amy Morin
Raising strong kids starts with unlearning your own emotional habits. In 13 Things Mentally Strong Parents Don’t Do, Amy Morin flips the parenting script. This isn’t about overprotecting or overcorrecting—it’s about modeling resilience.
Mentally strong parents don’t chase perfection. They don’t let guilt guide their decisions. And they don’t outsource their child’s strength to rules or rewards. Instead, they embrace discomfort, enforce boundaries with calm confidence, and let natural consequences teach what lectures can’t.
Strength isn’t in shielding your child from struggle—it’s in walking beside them through it without flinching. This book reminds us: your mindset is their blueprint. If you want to raise a leader, you can’t lead from fear.

Watching storms form and release is so satisfying. I took this photo during a pitstop while driving back from Arizona. It’s always good to get out and stretch but to be able to watch nature work is my favorite tv show.
