What if parenting wasn’t about getting everything right—but about strengthening the connection with your kids? In this powerful episode, Dr. Elisha Goldstein welcomes Dr. Aliza Pressman, developmental psychologist, author of the New York Times bestselling book The Five Principles of Parenting and Host of the Raising Good Humans Podcast, to explore how parents can ditch perfectionism, embrace repair, and raise emotionally resilient children.

We cover the science behind how reflection builds emotional longevity, why rules create security rather than restriction, and why repair is the real secret to strong relationships. If you’ve ever felt the weight of parental guilt, this episode is a game-changer.
