Step Away by Kate Lund
In Step Away: The Keys to Resilient Parenting, clinical psychologist and mother Dr. Kate Lund offers a refreshing paradigm shift for overwhelmed parents who feel burdened by endless expectations and guilt. Instead of pushing through until collapse, Lund argues that true resilience comes from knowing when and how to step away. Drawing on over two decades of clinical work and her own experiences as a mom, she lays out practical, science-backed strategies to manage stress, relinquish perfectionism, and reclaim boundaries. You’ll learn how to strengthen emotional intelligence in yourself and your children, communicate effectively, and build a home environment rooted in calm connection instead of chaos. The book is packed with real stories, actionable “step-away” techniques, and mindset shifts that help you model balance and resilience for your family.
