Description

In this episode, Dr. Nicole Saphier and parenting expert Holly Swenson explore the growing mental health crisis impacting children and adults—especially during the holiday season. They discuss the warning signs of emotional distress in kids, the powerful role social media plays in anxiety and depression, and why parental awareness has never been more critical. Holly shares insights from her work on conscious parenting, explaining how self-care, setting emotional boundaries, and creating calm at home can help families thrive. Plus, they reveal why boredom may actually be the secret to boosting creativity and resilience in today’s overwhelmed children.
