Are you concerned about the rising levels of anxiety and depression in today's youth? In this Habits and Hustle podcast episode, I dive deep into this pressing issue with renowned psychologist and author Dr. Leonard Sax.

We discuss the growth of a "culture of disrespect," exacerbated by the pervasive influence of social media, and the importance of conscientious parenting - both loving and strict - to produce the best outcomes. We also dive into issues such as the over-prescription of ADHD medication, the misdiagnosis of normal childhood behaviors as pathological, and the role of permissive parenting in the childhood obesity epidemic. 

Dr. Leonard Sax MD PhD is a highly educated and experienced physician, psychologist, and author. He attended MIT and the University of Pennsylvania, earning a PhD in psychology and an MD. Dr. Sax ran a primary care medical practice in Maryland from 1990 to 2008, and since 2001, he has been visiting schools and speaking to parents about child and adolescent development. He has written four books on the subject, including the New York Times bestseller "The Collapse of Parenting," and has spoken in numerous countries and appeared on various media outlets.
