“When you allow your children to struggle, you set them free.”

 This is the difficult-but-true message Keith McCurdy desperately wants parents to hear. He will be speaking on the topic “Raising Sturdy Kids” at the EO Building on October 30th. Mr. McCurdy gives practical advice on for raising kids who are resilient, grounded and wise. 

 McCurdy is the founder and president of Live Sturdy LLC and president and CEO of Total Life Counseling in Roanoke, Virginia. He has worked with families, children, parents, and individuals for more than three decades in the field of mental health, and during that time he has recognized a trend. Come hear how to raise study kids at 6:30 on October 30, 2026. The event includes coffee and dessert.
