In this episode of Facing the Dark , Wayne and Dr. Kathy talk about the quiet crisis many parents face as children grow older and need them differently. They explore the difference between identity, purpose, and competence, why parenting must be rooted in Christ rather than control, and how parents can model a whole, healthy life for their children. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/celebrate-kids-podcast-with-dr-kathy-253693/episodes/finding-yourself-beyond-the-role-of-parent/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/celebrate-kids-podcast-with-dr-kathy-253693/finding-yourself-beyond-the-role-of-parent.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
