S2 Ep 76: Motivating Your Kids

As a parent, do you ever wish someone could just whisper some realistic and trustworthy support in your ear? And not make you feel awful for not having all the answers? Well, that’s what I’m here for. 

I'm Dr. Aliza Pressman, developmental psychologist, parent educator, asst. clinical professor, and co-founder of both Mount Sinai Parenting Center and SeedlingsGroup. And I'm a mom... trying to raise two good humans myself, so I'm in this with you!
 
In each episode, we'll go deep (but brief) with both experts and parents to share the most effective approaches and tools and talk about the important bigger picture of raising good humans. My goal is to make your parenting journey less overwhelming and a lot more joyful! 

Please join me every Friday for new episodes of Raising Good Humans.

Frank Bruni joins us in today’s episode to discuss the transformative power of humility in our everyday lives and interactions. We explore the escalation of grievances in society—how complaints that once sparked necessary change have morphed into persistent sources of division. Frank Bruni shares insights on the potential of humility to reshape our conversations, reduce cultural divides, and foster a healthier environment for ourselves and our children.
