Dr. Shefali Tsabary: Your Child Isn’t The Problem. You Might Be. | Ep 126

“The future of the planet depends on the evolution of the parent.” -Dr. Shefali

Parenting isn’t about controlling your child.

It’s about becoming conscious of yourself.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Shefali breaks down one of the most confronting truths about parenting: many of the struggles we see in our children are being co-created in the parent-child dynamic.

From anxiety and defiance to grades, shame, and screen addiction, this conversation explores how our own triggers, expectations, and unconscious patterns shape our child’s sense of self-worth.

If you are a parent, thinking of becoming one, or healing your own childhood wounds, this episode will challenge you and empower you.
