Dr. Shefali is joined by her dear friend and mentor Barnet Bain, an Academy Award winning and Emmy nominated director. Barnet shares a deeply personal reflection on his journey as a parent, revealing how he believed he was practicing conscious parenting until his adult child left home. In that moment, he realized his love had conditions. Through this honest conversation, he explores what it truly means to embody unconditional love as our children grow into independence. He also discusses the inspiration behind his new book, How to Be a Friend in an Unfriendly World, offering insight into connection, compassion, and how we can show up more authentically in our relationships with our children and ourselves.
