Dr. Stan Tatkin and Kara Hoppe, psychotherapists and co-authors of Baby Bomb: A Relationship Survival Guide for New Parents, join the podcast to share their wisdom on creating secure, purposeful relationships in a world that is indifferent to us. They explain why this relationship is so imperative, especially when it comes to raising healthy, happy children.
Stan and Kara both bring a wealth of understanding of neurobiology and personal relational experience to this conversation. We talk about the importance of humor, how suffering can motivate us toward change, and how we can shift from being feeling-centered to purpose-centered in our relationship. All of this ultimately makes us better parents and creates a secure relational foundation for our children. In other words, this is how we parents can make it through the overwhelm, heal wounds for future generations, and begin to create the world we want to live in.
Whether you’re expecting your first child, are deep in the throes of raising children already, or just want to be a parent someday, this conversation is for you.
