    Raising Kids in the Age of Algorithmic Abduction with Leading Psychologist, Dr. Shefali

    We're raising children in a world our parents never had to navigate—one shaped by algorithms, social media comparison, constant stimulation, and an unprecedented pressure to perform. Dr. Shefali calls this phenomenon "algorithmic abduction": the ways technology can quietly shape our children's identities, attention, relationships, and sense of self. But while the world around our children has radically changed, many of our parenting models haven't. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Shefali explores the growing crisis facing today's boys and girls. Dr. Shefali has written two books on raising conscious boys and girls, and is on to discuss why she wrote these books now and what we can learn from them.
