Hi everyone,
In this solo episode of Wine with Wita, I’m sharing one of my favourite strategies for supporting children’s communication—the Black Dress Analogy.
Think about how you feel in a black dress: confident, comfortable, and validated.
Now, compare that to how you might feel in a white
dress—anxious, self-conscious, and unsure.
The way we give feedback to our children can have the
same effect.
💡 Key takeaway?
When we praise and encourage our children in a way that makes them feel good, they’re far more likely to repeat positive behaviours.
But when feedback feels critical or negative, it discourages
progress.
In this episode, I break down how you can use black dress feedback to help your child feel confident in their communication and development.
🎧 Listen now and start implementing this simple yet powerful shift.
Lots of love,
Rita x
