This week I sat down with New York Times bestselling author Melinda Wenner Moyer about her new book Hello, Cruel World. We explore the fear that drives so much of modern parenting, how to help kids build self-compassion, what the research really says about tech and substance use, and why a little discomfort might be exactly what our kids need to grow.
