Dear friend,

Season four of The Future Is HOW begins today with a conversation for every parent: how to stop passing your past on to your kids. My guest is Dr. Shefali, the pioneer of conscious parenting.

Episode 1 · Dr. Shefali & me

I met Dr. Shefali at Summit@Sea, where we were both speaking. I handed her a copy of my book and my daughter's future scent, and we connected over her interest in a life like ours, off the grid.

Dr. Shefali is a clinical psychologist, a New York Times bestselling author and the founder of the Conscious Parenting movement. You may know her from The Conscious Parent or The Awakened Family.

Summit@Sea

Trained at Columbia University, she brings Western psychology and Eastern wisdom together. She asks parents to look within first, at the fear and control we bring into family life, so there is room for presence and real connection with our children.

In this episode, she shows you how to stop passing your past on to your kids, and how to raise them for a future none of us can see.
