Anti-Fragile

Building Resilient Kids Through Life’s Challenges

In Anti-Fragile, a presentation on building resilience in children, Dr Justin Coulson challenges the idea that childhood should be free from stress and struggle. He argues that challenges are essential for growth and that parents can empower their children by allowing them to experience developmentally appropriate adversity while providing the right kind of support to help them overcome it.

How do we help children build resilience and equip them to handle life’s inevitable volatility, challenges, and setbacks?

In this presentation, Dr Coulson will explore:

What resilience truly means and why it matters

Why resilience is declining in our screen-focused world

Why risky play and face-to-face connections support life skills and resilience

How the current resilience deficit damages our children’s present wellbeing and future adult life

Practical strategies to reverse this trend by helping your child forge a strong sense of identity, develop genuine competence, and build lasting hope

Anti-Fragile presents Dr Coulson’s groundbreaking approach to building resilience in children, equipping them to not just cope with life’s challenges but to thrive because of them.
