    Turn Struggles Into Power Review As I listened to this episode on my way to work, a breathtaking sunrise unfolded before me, evoking cherished memories of my father and the joy he found in watching the sunrise.

    Permission to Grow
    Dr. Shefali opens up such intimate conversations of courage and vulnerability, engaging thoughtfully in both supporting parents to better guide their kids, and also helping parents to better guide themselves. This is a must listen for any parent who is seeking to break generational patterns and seeking to consciously grow beyond how they were raised as a child.

    Straight forward and radically honest
    I love this podcast and have followed Dr. Shefali’s work for years with my son. He’s not a teen and we are hitting new territories, resistance and attitudes. These real life episodes are like a warm balm that it’s all a part of the curriculum, we are not alone and there are tools to navigate parenting challenges. We get to grow up together with our kid.

    What an amazing podcast! I love learning and growing as a human and a mother this podcast teaches so much! Thank you Dr Shifali!!!

    Is this really a psychologist?
    Lets all remember that Oprah also loved Dr Phil. This doctor makes lots of assumptions about this parents experience, claims to understand and then makes it sound like it can be compared to parents with neurotypical kids. Completely arrogant and seems to know it all. A well trained psychologist would know not to make these mistakes. She sounds awfully confident but don’t be fooled…

    Such an inspiring, enlightening, and engaging podcast. For free?!?? Unbelievable. I have changed my awareness of my own past and relationships. These episodes are short and so powerful! Amazing!
  • Relaxingandchilling
    A podcast for every human who has had a parent!
    I don’t have kids but boy! this has changed my own awareness of my own childhood and adult relationships. The way Dr. Shefali listens and attunes to her guests allows me to do the same. I’m overwhelmed at her talent to deconstruct patterns so fast and yet so compassionately. I am blown away! Every human needs to listen and evolve! ❤️

    Life Lessons
    I was looking for help in both parenting and also for my own issues. I hoped the YOU in the title would represent that and it sure does! Dr Shefali has so many helpful advice, techniques and ways to improve every aspect of your life. I’ve listened to some of these episodes many times over as there is so much information that is helping me become a better parent and person in life. Thank you Dr Shefali and I hope I’m able to be a guest on your show and excited for every Tuesday when a new episode drops.

    Touching the essence of ourselves
    What I love about Dr. Shefali and the principles that she shares, which are quite universal in many aspects, is that she presents different pathways to parenting ourselves, FIRST, before parenting our children! By doing this and looking at our constructs, ideas, fantasies, traumas, triggers, and “movie scripts” we have created in our lives, we can truly begin to be aware of what is blocking us from the present moment, connecting with the “now”, and feeling into what is truly needed rather than projecting onto life, others, and, if you’re a parent, our children what “I want” or what I “don’t want to feel right now”. Thank you, Dr. Shefali, for sharing your essence.

    Life changing! And I’m not a parent
    What I love about this podcast is that it’s so raw and real. It’s about human connections and how to have wisdom - no matter if you are a parent or not. Dr. Shefali’s wisdom is above the rest. This is what makes her transformational. This is not only about what to do as a parent; it’s what to do as a human. Her wisdom is what the world needs today. Listen to her every word and your life will change.

    Life changing
    If you are ready to let go of old socially conditioned beliefs and you will allow yourself to truly hear the wisdom, your life - your relationship with your children, with yourself and everyone around you- will change for the better. I have been following Dr Shefali since my first child was born and it has made the journey so much more fulfilling and my children are so much healthier for it. This podcast is exactly what parents need- real time coaching of real time challenges. Her ability to unravel the core issues and gently guide parents to a new perspective is profound. This is the only parenting podcast you will need. Turn down all the other noise and just listen to these episodes- twice!

    Mom Guilt Tackled
    I wanted to sign up to come on the show to talk about the constant mom Guilt I feel. I've had to travel a couple of times, even though I work from home and have a nanny so my babies are here with me. I had been feeling a tremendous amount of guilt for leaving them. As I listened to the podcast here is my main takeaway. If we as moms are not gentle with ourselves, we'll be hard on our babies. From her talk with the military mama. I felt myself in everyone she interviewed. The mama who bought all the books and listened to the social media advice etc. That was me before I gave birth and I wish someone would have told me. Stop! Prepare emotionally for being a mom. My baby is almost 2 years old and has been waking up more crying in the middle of the night, I always tell my husband I want to sleep next to her but we have my 4 months old next to me and he refuses to let me bring the older baby into our room. I felt myself in the lady who just wanted to sleep. Every episode was pure gold. Thank you Dr. Shefali, I am currently reading the parenting road map but this podcast is everything! It's so so helpful.

    The guidance you wish your parents had when you were a kid…. And the parent you can become for yourself and your child… life changing is an understatement. Dr Shefali combines the best of psychology, wisdom, compassion and no sugar coating. She’ll be brutally honest but she’ll do it without shaming anyone. Hands down the best parenting advice out there.

    Wow, just WOW!
    I listen to many psychology/parenting podcasts and there is nothing out there like THIS! Dr. Shefali’s ability to get to the ROOT of the issue by helping clients to see their inner narratives is so genius. You will not hear insights and guidance like this anywhere else. Each client is so relatable and Dr. Shefali helps them truly see things from their child’s perspective, with compassion and understanding. I feel lucky to hear these sessions with such a ground-breaking psychologist.

    Shefali is the best!
    Her approach to conscious parenting is the gold standard in our family, we have all her books and couldn’t be more thrilled about the podcast!

    Parenting Wisdoms
    Dr. Shefali’s work in CONSCIOUS PARENTING is an awakening and a must for all that have children, young and old. This podcast is a tip of the iceberg of the wisdoms Dr. Shefali is sharing and teaching the world.
  • Solid service
    Game changer! Serious MAGIC.
    I’m not a parent and Dr. Shefali‘s message has completely changed the way I engage and show up in the important relationships in my life. Dr Shefali talks about identifying the core reasons and the depth of why we are who we are and how that shows up in our relationships. Personally, I’m a super involved auntie with the children in my family, her teachings really help me to stay present, non-judgmental towards the kids and teenagers, and help me to understand that I’m being triggered because of something in my past not because the children or the teenagers are terrible. There’s so much to learn here in so much insight, plus, Dr. Shefali is really funny!
