Many will tell you that the social experience of school made as big an impact on their lives as the academic one.

Jordana, was that the case for you?

Yes, and some of my closest friends to this day are still the friends I made in Kindergarten.

You know what? That’s true for me too. And a tremendous blessing in my life. But we know this is not always the case.

On today’s episode, we speak with renowned psychologist Aliza Pressman of the podcast Raising Good Humans all about fitting-in or feeling left-out, the good influences and the not-so good, and the role of the parent to support their kids in this deeply personal journey.
