#996: Join us as we sit down with Dr. Shefali – clinical psychologist, New York Times bestselling author, and the founder of the Conscious Parenting movement, who’s changing the way we think about parenting, childhood, and family dynamics. In this episode, Dr. Shefali explains why the greatest gift you can give your children is healing yourself first, how unconscious patterns and parental ego shape the next generation, and why resilience should be the goal. Dr. Shefali shares practical tools for raising confident, authentic children, helping daughters develop their inner voice, supporting sons through healthy masculinity and physical expression, navigating screen time, conflict, and modern parenting challenges, and creating the kind of family environment where children can truly become who they were meant to be.
