In today’s episode we are joined by scientist and psychologist Dr. Tracy Dennis-Tiwary. We dive into the uncertain waters of modern parenting- where the push for optimization and mental health awareness may be doing more harm than good. We discuss the delicate balance between providing support and allowing children to navigate their own emotional challenges, the pressures of achievement culture, and the mixed messages parents receive about mental health. I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!
