Through our conversation, we unlock the synergy between personal growth and raising emotionally intelligent, resilient children. As we journey through this episode, Dr. Luz offers her profound insights on integrating positive psychology, trauma therapy, and child development into our parenting practices, showing us that the pursuit of wholeness, rather than perfection, can lead to the nurturing of our children's authentic selves.Our dialogue takes a deep dive into the transformational power of radical vulnerability in parenting. Dr. Luz shares her expertise on how to promote emotional intelligence in sons and cultivate a spirit of inquiry in daughters, challenging gender-based societal expectations.
