Ep 216: Parenting and You with Dr. Shefali

Cheaper Than Therapy with Vanessa and Dené

We’ll be back with all new episodes of Cheaper than Therapy starting next week! But we’re so excited about the launch of Dr. Shefali’s new podcast, PARENTING & YOU, that we wanted to do a throwback episode to when we had her on the podcast to talk about her most recent book, The Parenting Map.

Dr. Shefali is not your typical parenting expert and PARENTING & YOU is not your typical parenting podcast. There are no guest experts or celebrities. Every episode has 2 parents being helped through their parenting journey.

It’s raw, real and totally relatable.

In Ep. 142, we did an Instagram Live with Dr. Shefali, three time New York Times best-sellers author, including her two landmark books The Conscious Parent and The Awakened Family.

We talked about:

🌟 The importance of raising our children to be sovereign beings, rather than a possession that fit into our idealized parenting fantasies

🌟 Shifting our parenting paradigms from being in control to being in charge, and what that tangibly looks like

🌟 The difference between ego-enhancing boundaries and life-enhancing boundaries in parenting

🌟 What to do when your parenting paradigm/style doesn’t align with your partners, and what that means for your children

Dr. Shefali has been a huge source of inspiration for both of us - certainly as women and therapists, but even more than that - in the way we show up as parents. We just know you’re going to be as inspired by this conversation with her as we were!

🎙 This podcast is definitely Cheaper than Therapy
