She discusses how recognizing these traits can help parents and educators better understand and support their children in building resilience. Archetype 1: The Perfectionist Perfectionist children fear failure and have high expectations. They may become overwhelmed and frustrated when things don't go perfectly. This can lead to limiting opportunities and avoiding challenges. Archetype 2: The Comfort Zone Seeker These children fear success and are concerned about how others view their achievements. They may avoid trying hard and prefer not to stand out. The fear of isolation from peers is a common concern. Archetype 3: The Critic Kids in this category often engage in negative self-talk. They may criticize themselves about various aspects, including school subjects and friendships. Encouraging them to focus on evidence and not commenting on appearance can be helpful. Archetype 4: The Projector Projector kids tend to blame others for their problems or mistakes. They may avoid taking responsibility and use blame as a defense mechanism. Sometimes, they fear embarrassment and want to appear as experts. Archetype 5: The Conservative Conservative children resist change and prefer routine. They may struggle with confidence and need to know what to expect. Transitions can be challenging for them, leading to meltdowns. Archetype 6: The Worrier These kids worry excessively about a wide range of topics, often out of their control. Anxiety can escalate quickly if not managed. Building emotional regulation skills is essential for resilience. Archetype 7: The Sensitive Sensitive children are highly attuned to their surroundings and can become easily overwhelmed. They may cry or react strongly to sensory stimuli. Acknowledging their needs and providing tools for emotional expression is vital. The episode emphasizes the importance of recognizing these archetypes, understanding each child's unique needs, and helping them build resilience. Resilience, like confidence, grows when children are given the tools to face challenges and overcome them.
