Dr. Jessica Peck: Raise Holistically Healthy and Resilient Kids (ep. 764)

Dr. Jessica Peck has spent more than two decades as a pediatric nurse practitioner, a professor, and a nationally recognized advocate for children and families. She’s treated teens battling anxiety, depression, and self-harm, helped parents navigate the challenges of raising children in a rapidly changing world, and fought to protect young people from modern-day dangers like cyberbullying and trafficking. But her most important role? A mom of four who has learned firsthand the power of forgiveness, resilience, and hope in parenting.

Today, Dr. Jessica Peck shares how her own struggles with perfectionism and family trauma shaped her journey, why healing isn’t just for you (it impacts generations to come!) and how healthy communication can transform our most important relationships. She also offers practical tools to help parents create safe spaces for tough conversations, set boundaries with love, and guide their kids through life’s biggest challenges with confidence and grace.

My friends, if you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the pressures of parenting, this conversation is for you. You’ll walk away with hope, wisdom, and real-life strategies to strengthen your relationships and support the young people in your life.
