Thriving with Anxiety: Dr Jodi's Story & Strategies

Parenting can be one of the most meaningful – and most challenging – roles we’ll ever have. But what if the key to raising emotionally healthy children isn’t about fixing our kids… but about understanding ourselves?

In this powerful conversation, Dr Jodi Richardson sits down with world-renowned clinical psychologist and bestselling author Dr Shefali, often described as Oprah Winfrey’s favourite parenting expert and the pioneer of the Conscious Parenting movement.

Dr Shefali shares how traditional parenting models rooted in control, fear, and perfectionism can unintentionally disconnect us from our children – and how a conscious parenting approach can transform not only our relationships with our kids, but also our relationship with ourselves.

Together, Jodi and Dr Shefali explore:

Why parenting is not a talent but a skill we cultivate

How our children can become mirrors for our own healing

The hidden pressure parents place on themselves to be “perfect”

Why awareness and presence are the first steps to conscious parenting

How to repair after conflict and strengthen connection

Why the most important work of parenting is actually raising our own inner child

If you’ve ever felt guilt, overwhelm, or the pressure to get parenting “right”, this episode is a powerful reminder that perfection isn’t the goal – growth and awareness are.

Dr Shefali will also be visiting Australia for two special live events where she’ll dive deeper into conscious parenting and how it can transform families for generations.
