Are we raising young people who can handle adulthood, or are we unintentionally holding them back? In this episode, we welcome Dr. Paul Marcille to discuss how agency, consequences shape resilience, independence, and healthy childhood development. Dr Marcille, a licensed psychologist, has over 35 years of experience in higher education, private practice, and professional leadership, and is recognised nationally for advancing mental health programs and mentoring the next generation of psychologists. In our conversation, Dr. Marcille explains why so many college students arrive unprepared to manage independence and how the erosion of agency is driving struggles with anxiety, depression, and confidence. We delve into how ‘hovering’ can erode independence rather than develop it, the role of agency in fostering problem-solving skills, and why coaching is often about helping the parents manage their own anxiety. Learn why simple dinner-table dialogue between family is essential, the reasons behind the lack of accountability in younger generations, steps parents can take to teach problem-solving skills and build their child’s confidence, and how to create safe but challenging experiences that challenge agency and create self-confidence. Join us to discover what it truly means to help young people thrive and gain a new perspective on agency and consequences with Dr. Paul Marcille!
