Michael Gurian

I talk to boyhood psychology expert, Dr. Michael Gurian about his book, The Wonder of Boys. We discuss how biological differences between boys and girls affect the neurology and consequently the psychology of boys as well as how schools and therapists have overlooked these differences to the detriment of boys. Gurian provides insights into what boys need in order to grow into strong, mentally and emotionally healthy men, and what parents can do to provide that environment to boys. If you're a dad, this is a definite must-listen. Lots of great actionable information here to help your son to become a good, strong man.

Dr. Michael Gurian shares insights on how boys and girls learn differently, discussing brain development and hormonal changes. The podcast also explores gender-specific learning strategies and the importance of instilling values and purpose in boys. Plus, a family adventure involving a speaking engagement and a history lesson at a Space Museum.

This podcast delves into the distinct parenting styles of moms and dads, emphasizing the importance of embracing both for a child's growth. It explores the contrasts in verbal and physical approaches, the challenges in playful interactions, and the significance of parental trust and intervention.
