While we have no shortage of specialists on this show, having an Oprah-backed expert on this week’s episode is exceptionally riveting. Especially since it’s Dr. Shefali Tsabary (!), a renowned authority on family dynamics and personal development who’s published four books (three New York Times best-sellers) and teaches classes and seminars across the globe. No wonder one of America’s most powerful media titans is obsessed…

 

One of Dr. Shefali’s landmark books, The Conscious Parent, imparts mindfulness tools that can build sturdier and more authentic relationships between parents and children. In fact, authenticity plays a major role in everything we discussed, which includes guru culture, the patriarchy (and how it doesn’t need to be seen as innately bad, just like a matriarchy), societal pressure on mothers, and even the individual-effacing dangers of ritualization within any organization or system.
