Is the drive for success pushing us and our kids too far? In today's episode we sit down with Jennifer Wallace, author of Never Enough: When Achievement Culture Becomes Toxic. We break down the hidden dangers of achievement culture and how it can become toxic, leading to burnout, anxiety, and an unhealthy obsession with "doing more." We explore the impact this mindset has on mental health, self-worth, and relationships, and discuss why constantly chasing success might be doing more harm than good.

In today’s episode we sit down with Dr. Vivek Murthy, U.S. Surgeon General and father of two for a deep dive into the unprecedented challenges facing parents today. From skyrocketing stress levels to the silent epidemic of loneliness, Dr. Murthy sheds light on why so many parents are feeling overwhelmed—and what we can do about it. We discuss the power of small, intentional connections, the importance of prioritizing your own well-being, and why embracing a "team sport" approach to parenting can make all the difference.
