“Behind every young child who believes in himself is a parent who believed first.” –Matthew Jacobson
Our parents are like our first influencers. They were there before social media, showing us how to navigate life. Host Julia discusses how our parents shape our views on pretty much everything—money, relationships, education, and life. She shares personal stories of growing up and the advice she was given. She shares behaviors that children learn from parents, both positive and negative. Work ethics, social skills, and handling stress, are all connected to how you grew up. Kids who grow up in a nurturing environment tend to score higher on exams. Parents who shelter their kids from tough life lessons often end up with anxious adult children. In the second segment, Julia describes her dad’s experience as a “Navy brat”, moving constantly to different states and countries because his father was a four-star Navy Admiral working with Henry Kissinger. He was resilient and adaptable, traits that continue to inspire Julia. She illustrates the different parenting styles with authoritative, yet loving, being the most balanced.
We owe a lot to our parents—not just for raising us, but for shaping the way we think, act, and see the world. So, next time they’re giving us advice, maybe we’ll listen a little closer… or at least pretend to.
“To the world, you’re just one person, but to your parents, you are the world.”
