"Parenting today is under a deep crisis because we've been doing it the way we were told to do it. Parents are unable to individuate and break free themselves because they're so enmeshed with the parental indoctrination from their childhood that they need to present as perfect or happy or cheerful. That's why they can't allow their children to be autonomous individuated separate human beings and control their children." - Dr. Shefali Tsabary

| 0:00.0 | We're operating from such a place of anxiety that we are just surviving in this parental journey. |
| 0:08.5 | And one of the ways we survive is we wear these masks. |
| 0:12.6 | These masks are triggered because of our anxiety and our desire to control. |
| 0:17.5 | We don't realize how sedimented and rooted, grooved we become in these very monotonous, |
| 0:23.6 | robotic, knee-jerk cycles, these egoic patterns which are very dysfunctional, but we don't realize that we're caught in them. |
| 0:30.6 | Let's break free from these patterns. So our children are not burdened by these unconscious reactive cycles, |

| 1:29.1 | I believe your fourth book yes is the fourth book you've written it's my fourth parenting book but my |
| 1:34.7 | fifth book and then I wrote another book which I co-authored so six books so this is my sixth book |
| 1:40.7 | one of the things I loved when I was preparing for this is I was going through your social media and you're just not the atypical parental person who's giving advice. You really |
| 1:49.9 | have a spiritual essence to the way that you describe parenting and it's written all inside of the book. |
