If you are like many adults, you've experienced issues coping with all that the pandemic has brought upon our lives. But children are also being severely impacted. Even before the pandemic started, unprecedented rates of childhood anxiety and depression existed, with one in five children under the age of eighteen diagnosed with a mental health disorder. More kids are affected by mental illness than asthma, peanut allergies, diabetes, and cancer combined. Post pandemic, those numbers are expected to climb even higher. In this episode I sit down with leading child and adolescent psychiatrist and president of Child Mind Institute, Harold Koplewicz, MD, to discuss his timely new book, THE SCAFFOLD EFFECT: Raising Resilient, Self-Reliant, and Secure Kids in the Age of Anxiety (Harmony Books; On-Sale February 2, 2021). He shares a powerful and clinically tested new parenting strategy that will teach competence and resilience in everyday life, as well as prevent and counteract the general anxiety and emotional fragility prevalent in children and teenagers today. Grab a pen, this episode is full of helpful and transformative information!

Has the practice of prayer, meditation and gratitude helped you get through this past year? If you're like many mothers, the answer is unequivocally YES. In this wide ranging conversation with best selling faith writer Sarah Bessey, we discuss her new book, "A Rhythm of Prayer" and how during this time of upheaval, stress, and burnout, it's our open communication and connection to God and to each other that has the power to change everything. Featuring writing by Amena Brown, Barbara Brown Taylor, Lisa Sharon Harper, and more. Connect with Sarah at sarahbessey.com, IG @sarahbessey, Facebook @sarahbessey Join the Evolving Faith Community GET THE BOOK For the weary, the angry, the anxious, and the hopeful, this collection of moving, tender prayers offers rest, joyful resistance, and a call to act, written by Barbara Brown Taylor, Amena Brown, Nadia Bolz-Weber, and other artists and thinkers, curated by the author Glennon Doyle calls "my favorite faith writer." It's no secret that we are overworked, overpressured, and edging burnout. Unsurprisingly, this fact is as old as time—and that's why we see so many prayer circles within a multitude of church traditions. These gatherings are a trusted space where people seek help, hope, and peace, energized by God and one another. This book, curated by acclaimed author Sarah Bessey, celebrates and honors that prayerful tradition in a literary form. A companion for all who feel the immense joys and challenges of the journey of faith, this collection of prayers says it all aloud, giving readers permission to recognize the weight of all they carry. These writings also offer a broadened imagination of hope—of what can be restored and made new. Each prayer is an original piece of writing, with new essays by Sarah Bessey throughout. Encompassing the full breadth of the emotional landscape, these deeply tender yet subversive prayers give readers an intimate look at the diverse language and shapes of prayer.

Approaching the winter solstice of his own life, author Roger Rosenblatt embarked upon writing Cold Moon: On Life, Love, and Responsibility, dedicated to the three most important lessons he has learned over his many years. In our conversation we delve into those three lessons: an appreciation of being alive, a recognition of the gift and power of love, and the necessity of exercising responsibility toward one another. Roger Rosenblatt is the author of five New York Times Notable Books of the Year, four national bestsellers and seven off-Broadway plays. His essays for Time magazine and the PBS NewsHour have won two George Polk Awards, the Peabody, and the Emmy, among others. In 2015, he won the Kenyon Review Award for Lifetime Literary Achievement.
