This clip from an episode of Fargo Talks dives into parenting with Mackenzie Dern. We talk about letting kids build strength instead of cushioning every moment. Mackenzie explains why she doesn’t rush in when her daughter falls at the playground. If she’s not hurt, she gets up. She figures it out. That builds confidence.

We also talk about how her daughter handles the pressure of watching her fight. She went from being emotional during walkouts to coaching from the crowd. She yelled kick her, punch her in the face while Mackenzie was fighting for a title. That shift shows how kids adapt when we give them space to grow instead of keeping them fragile.

This clip is about parenting, resilience, pressure, courage, and raising kids who trust themselves.
