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!

In today's episode, Dr. Niobe Way- internationally recognized professor of developmental psychology and the founder of the Project for the Advancement of Our Common Humanity at NYU joins us for a conversation on boyhood, curiosity, and connection.

This podcast (and most of your podcasts) just was so easy to listen to and I felt like I could've been having this conversation with both you and Jessica Alba - which is worlds away from reality!Your Podcasts are so patient and thoughtful and terribly real and helpful

I agree. Please write a book! Some parents love to be challenged, especially in ways that can actually make an impression that could potentially change a generation. Empathy is lacking in the world today. As parents, we have an opportunity to plant seeds. and we need tools to know how.

loved this episode! I especially loved the Q & A's at the end. the answers were very helpful because they included examples of convos that might/can happen... my 3 yr old is in the tantrum stage as well so being given an idea of what I can respond instead is awesome!💖
