About this episode
Everyone loses their temper from time to time — but the stakes are dizzyingly high when the focus of your fury is your own child. This week we're revisiting a talk by clinical psychologist and renowned parenting whisperer Becky Kennedy. Not only does she have practical advice to help parents manage the guilt and shame of their not-so-great moments but she also models the types of conversations you can have to be a better parent. (Hint: this works in all other relationships too.) Bottom line? It's never too late to reconnect. After the talk, stick around for a conversation between Shoshana and author Emily Oster on how to use data in everyday parenting decisions.
