When kids get to the age where they're separating and individuating. All of them have a desire to be seen and understood for who they are, where they are. Conscious parenting teaches the parent that the reason they are unable to connect with their child is because they are rejecting a part in their child that they have rejected in themselves. Those are the birth canals for the next stage of development but parents are ill prepared for it.
Today's guest is none other than best-selling author and psychologist, Dr. Shefali. Her new book, The Parenting Map, and this conversation are for anyone raising a kid in this scary social media-driven environment.
We dive into the walls that parents hit with their children, what to do if your child is "acting out," and what to do about the pressure you might feel to raise a "perfect" child. Dr. Shefali has such amazing insights into parenting and I hope you enjoy this conversation with her as much as I did.
