Raising kids has always been complicated – but doing it in a world of algorithms, constant comparison, endless pressure and nonstop noise is a whole different challenge.
Dr. Shefali – Columbia-trained clinical psychologist, New York Times bestselling author and founder of the conscious parenting movement – joins Kelsey to unpack what it takes to raise healthy, confident kids today. And as Dr. Shefali makes clear, conscious parenting isn’t only about changing how we raise our children – it starts with looking at ourselves.
She explains how our own unhealed patterns can show up in our parenting and relationships, how to recognize when your inner child is “behind the wheel,” and why becoming a conscious parent means raising yourself right alongside your kids.
They also get into dating and choosing a future co-parent, the conversations Dr. Shefali believes couples should have before committing, and why the ability to repair after conflict may tell you far more about a relationship than the honeymoon phase ever could.
Plus: how algorithms and social media are shaping girls and boys, teaching daughters to trust their inner voice, raising emotionally healthy sons without shame, knowing when to let your child struggle, navigating mom guilt – and why Dr. Shefali says it may be time to stop chasing an A+ in parenting and become perfectly happy with a B.
I think that opening is much better for this one. It gives us a timely hook without doing the “What if…” device again.
