    How to Build a Healthy Relationship With Your Kids with Dr. Koraly Pérez-Edgar

    Raising children is multifaceted. The goal for many of us is to raise resilient well-adjusted children who contribute to society in a meaningful way and to have a good adult relationship with them. But there are ups and downs and challenges from infancy to adulthood. How we as parents navigate those times impacts our child’s ability to bounce back from a setback and the relationship we have with them once they are adults. In this episode, Alita Guillen sits down with Dr. Koraly Pérez-Edgar, a developmental psychologist, Penn State professor, and editor-in-chief of Developmental Psychology. Together, they explore how our earliest traits, like shyness or boldness, interact with our environment to shape who we become. Dr. Pérez-Edgar shares how her research connects temperament and attention, revealing how some children learn to regulate anxiety and thrive while others struggle. They discuss what parents and teachers can do to support kids’ emotional growth, how to spot early signs of social anxiety, and why understanding behavior isn’t about labels—it’s about compassion. This conversation offers a fascinating look into the science of human development. From the biology of fear to the power of supportive relationships, Dr. Pérez-Edgar shows how small moments can have a lifelong impact.

    Three Keys To Equality at Home with The "Fair Play" Game with Eve Rodsky

    What if equality at home could change everything from our health to our happiness? In this episode, Alita Guillen sits down with Eve Rodsky, Harvard-trained lawyer, New York Times bestselling author, and creator of Fair Play, the system reimagining how couples divide domestic labor. Eve shares how one “blueberries breakdown” became a turning point that inspired her to treat the home like our most important organization. Together, they unpack the hidden biases and invisible work that leads to burnout, resentment, health issues and a breakdown of a good relationship. Eve lays out a plan so that couples can become proactive by restoring balance, having boundaries, implementing systems, and establishing good communication. They also talk about Find Your Unicorn Space, Eve’s follow-up to Fair Play, which explores how reclaiming creativity is essential to combating burnout and rediscovering joy.  With humor, heart, and hard data, Eve helps us see that rebalancing our time isn’t just about chores—it’s about equality, identity, and the freedom to thrive.Book:Find Your Unicorn Space: Reclaim Your Creative Life in a Too-Busy World Website: fairplaylife.com Instagram: @everodsky YouTube: @alitaguillen Instagram: @alitakguillen Instagram: @10secondstoair LinkedIn: Alita Guillen Web: alitaguillen.com Web: 10secondstoair.com

    Have you ever said yes when you meant no? Whether it’s nodding along with a doctor’s recommendation, going along with your boss, or staying silent in a meeting—most of us are guilty of complying when our gut says to speak up.
