To kick off Season 2, Abby and Catherine dive into the profound impact of nurture on early childhood development. Drawing insights from Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum's work, we explore how nurturing practices from birth to age five can lay the foundation for mental health and resilience. Discover the science behind attachment, the importance of responsive caregiving, and how these early experiences shape a child's future.


We also reflect on the highlights and lessons learned from the past season and the inspiring stories and pivotal moments that resonated with our listeners.


Tune in to learn how nurturing your child can be the ultimate preventative mental health care.
