We've all heard it: "But you turned out okay." And when it comes from a parent or grandparent, it can stop you in your tracks and is often accompanied by an eye roll! In this episode, I sit down with parenting and pregnancy expert Sharon Mazel to unpack what's really happening beneath that phrase, and why navigating generational differences in parenting can feel so complicated. Together, we explore how parenting has evolved, what's actually grounded in research, and where the biggest tensions tend to show up, from discipline and tantrums to sleep, safety, and screen time. We also talk about what often gets missed: the incredible value grandparents bring, how their involvement impacts kids, and how to create relationships built on mutual respect instead of frustration. This is a conversation about bridging the gap, not choosing sides, so the people who love our kids most can work together to raise them well.

Pesach is the most educational holiday we have, but most of us walk into the Seder hoping it just works. In this mini-series, I sit down with three educators, each offering a completely different lens on how to approach the Seder and the days leading up to it. From building your night around a clear theme, to creating energy and engagement, to thinking deeply about your own role at the table, each conversation is filled with real, tangible ideas you can actually use.
