    The Advice That's Quietly Ruining Your Parenting | Dr. Shefali

    Every generation of parents thinks they're getting it right, and millennials are trying so hard to break the cycle that they're at risk of creating a whole new one. On this week's episode of Broadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with Dr. Shefali, Columbia-trained clinical psychologist, founder of the Conscious Parenting movement, and three-time New York Times bestselling author, to break down why the advice most parents lean on is actually working against them. From why boys and girls need completely different kinds of emotional support, to why today's parents are trying harder than any generation before them and still feeling like it's not enough, to the real reason teenagers push back the way they do. She also opens up about her own divorce and what it taught her about raising a daughter who won't shrink herself, and why parenting is one of the only jobs we're never actually trained for.  Stay for her take on "eldest daughter syndrome" and how to actually give your teenager the space they need to grow. You'll never approach parenting the same way again. Follow Dr. Shefali: @doctorshefali Pre-order her book: Raising Conscious Daughters & Sons EPISODE CREDITS...

    We're Scrolling Ourselves to Death | Larz May

    The average person picks up their phone 150 times a day, and 55% of us are still answering emails after 11pm. On this week's #FQBroadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with Larz May, digital wellness activist and founder of Half the Story and Gingko, to unpack what our always-on culture is actually doing to our brains, and why she believes it could be as serious as scrolling ourselves to death. From the burnout that nearly took her life, to the difference between a "boundary" and a "hard line," to why AI should be your GPS and not your engine, Larz breaks down the line between active and passive screen time, and why teens respond to joy instead of fear. She also opens up about her new partnership with Girls Inc, backed by Oprah, Melinda French Gates, and Meghan Markle, and her new company Gingko, built to help parents turn their kids' screen time into real-world passions.  Stay for the "f*ck yes or f*ck no" round, where Larz gets brutally honest about her own phone habits. You'll never look at your phone the same way again. Follow Larz May: @livinlikelarz EPISODE CREDITS...

    What You Don't Know About Prenups Could Cost You | Nicole Lapin

    Most people think a prenup is only for the ultra-wealthy or a sign your marriage is doomed before it starts. In reality, it might be the single most important financial conversation you'll ever have. On this week's episode of Broadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with Nicole Lapin, New York Times bestselling author and host of the Money Rehab podcast, to demystify what a prenup actually is, what's legal, what's a red flag, and why the smartest people in the room are the ones asking for one. From the wildest real clause Nicole has ever seen someone try to sneak in, to the one thing most women forget to ask for that could be worth six figures, to how to protect a business you built before you say "I do." Stay for the exact framework for bringing it up without starting a fight, and the rapid-fire round where the hosts answer "f**k yes or f**k no" to the internet's boldest prenup takes. You'll never look at "I do" the same way again. EPISODE CREDITS...

    You can lose your mom twice | Jacquelyn Revere

    81% of elder caregivers are women, and most don't realize what it actually costs until they're living it. On this week's #FQBroadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga meet with Jacquelyn Revere, the woman behind "mom of my mom," who at 29 uprooted her entire life to become the sole caregiver for both her mother and her grandmother and turned that experience into a movement. She shares moments from her journey, like flying home to find unpaid mortgage notices and expired food in the fridge, to the moment her mother started calling her "mom," and the data showing daughters spend twice as much time caregiving as sons, with sons pulling back even further when a sister is around. She also breaks down what caregiving actually costs you financially and professionally, and what it means to rebuild your identity once the person you cared for is gone.

    Working harder will not get you promoted | Tiger Sisters

    Young women are among the most age-discriminated group in the workforce, and most of them don't even realize it's happening. On this week's episode of Broadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with Jean and Sherry Lou, the sisters behind Spotify's number one business podcast Tiger Sisters, former Goldman Sachs, LinkedIn and Snap executives with MBAs from Harvard and Stanford. From why being the only woman in the room means you end up doing the admin work that goes nowhere, to the "avocado ceiling" research that explains why women have a narrower window to prove themselves than men ever will, to what HR actually is and why you should never confess anything to them, this episode is packed with advice that could change how you move through your career starting today. Stay for the part where they break down the exact difference between a red flag manager and a green flag one, because the signs are more specific than you think. You belong in that room. This episode will make sure no one can take that from you. Follow Tiger Sisters: @TigerSistersPod EPISODE CREDITS...

    Stop saying sorry | Keltie Knight

    Stop apologizing for wanting more. Keltie Knight built a three-time Emmy-winning career being "good" and "perfect" and nearly lost herself doing it. On this week's episode of Broadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with the New York Times bestselling author and Lady Gang co-creator to talk about The F*ck Them Theory and why the most powerful thing you can do for your career is stop caring who dislikes you. From the $200K salary gap she uncovered and went after anyway, to why the "unbothered" era is a trap keeping women small, to how she completely rewired the way she negotiates, asks for money, and shows up without the apology at the end. Stay for the moment she breaks down exactly how she handled equal pay negotiations and lost the job anyway and why it was still the best thing that ever happened to her. This one will change how you walk into every room. Follow Keltie Knight: @Keltie  EPISODE CREDITS...

    Your kids are not safe online | Sharon McMahon

    There is no federal law in the United States preventing your 8-year-old from making a social media account. No minimum age requirement. No comprehensive national legislation. Just piecemeal state policies and a social infrastructure that can't keep up with the technology it's supposed to regulate. On this week's #FQBroadlines, hosts Rae Williams and Natalie Lizarraga sit down with author, educator and podcaster Sharon McMahon to talk about the very real and very urgent crisis of kids on the internet. From why the algorithm is engineered to be addictive to how social media is driving a mental health emergency among teenage girls to why consumer protection laws might be the only tool powerful enough to hold these platforms accountable. Sharon is here to break down what's actually happening and what it would take to fix it. Follow Sharon McMahon: @SharonSaysSo EPISODE CREDITS...
