Explore the deep connection between perfectionism, anxiety, and the all-too-common phenomenon of helicopter parenting. Tune in to learn how relentless hovering, micromanaging, and striving for flawlessness can actually undermine children’s resilience, independence, and self-esteem.

Discover how recognizing and managing your own anxiety—and building up your confidence as an individual—can free you from the stress of needing to control every detail of your kids’ lives. By “landing the helicopter,” you’ll not only empower your children to thrive on their own terms but also rediscover who you are beyond motherhood.
