The Digital Leash: Taking Your Family Back from the Scroll with Drew Canole (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Drew Canole, founder of the superfood company Organifi, said something that made me want to throw my phone in a drawer: "You have more stimulation than ever before, but you feel more alone than ever before." I watched this man describe being the only dad at the park who's not staring at a screen, spinning ten kids on a gyroscope while every other parent scrolls, and I thought, that's the picture of what our kids are actually starving for. Here's what Drew knows that most parents don't: the phone
Running on Empty? How to Refill Before You Break with Allison Maslan (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When Allison Maslan described starting with a full glass of water and pouring into every person and every crisis until you wake up with nothing left to give, I saw every burned-out parent I know in that one image. Allison, founder of Pinnacle Global Network and bestselling author of Scale or Fail, has spent over 40 years building businesses and raised her daughter as a single mom, and here's what she knows that most parents don't: every time we rush in to fix it, we quietly rob our kids of the s
Why Enabling Your Kid Feels Like Love (But Isn't) with Mike Koenigs (opens the original)

Twenty-five years of marriage, and the hardest thing we ever did together wasn't staying in love. It was learning to stop rescuing our son.

I had no idea this world even existed, so I called Regan Archibald, founder of Ageless Future and author of The Peptide Blueprint, because he has been the OG voice on peptides for years. Here's the thing most parents don't know yet: kids as young as 12 are now chasing GLP-1 drugs to "get cut," trials are being
What a 94-Year-Old Holocaust Survivor Knows About the Anxious Generation with Mirta Glyck (opens the original)
Read excerpt
My mom, Mirta Glyck, a retired New York City public school teacher with two master's degrees and 29 years in the classroom, opens this conversation by compressing her life into less than a minute: the war started when she was eight or nine years old, her mother counted more than 20 cousins, aunts, and uncles killed by the Nazis, and when she couldn't leave a difficult marriage, she gave herself a 10-year program. This is what 94 years looks like when you had to build grit you weren't born with,
