How Dads Can Teach their Daughters to Manage Strong Emotions

Dr. Danny Huerta and his daughter Lexi discuss how dads can teach their daughters to manage strong emotions.

Lexi explains that sometimes she is fearful, but with her dad's help she's been able to power through and manage her strong emotions. She was able to keep her emotions in check when she was preparing for her aerial competitions.

She also worries about war and Danny discusses how to keep away "ANTS" or Automatic Negative Thoughts about that big concern and other topics.

With Managing Strong Emotions, Dr. Danny Huerta continues his "Dads and Daughters" series. He invites dads to make time to hold conversations like this one he's having with Lexi. This video series explores 13 essential lessons that dads can teach their daughters. Managing Strong Emotions is #10.
