Ep. 1: Family Dysfunction and Ep. 2: Hiring a Nanny

Kathryn interviews psychiatrist Edward M. Hallowell MD, author of "Because I Come From a Crazy Family: The Making of a Psychiatrist". Hallowell's childhood was surrounded by dysfunction, a manic-depressive father, alcoholic mother and an abusive step-father. Hallowell's memoir is a paean to the mentally ill and those who love them. He's featured on Oprah, CNN, NPR, 60 minutes, and in US News and World Report, the NYTimes, Washington Post and the Harvard Business Review. Kathryn also interviews Alyce Desrosiers LCSW, author of "The Nanny Manual: How to Choose and Nurture the Perfect Childcare Partner". What's the secret to hiring the right nanny? Desrosiers takes parents on a journey of self-discovery to help them with one of the most important hiring decisions they'll ever make. She is the founder of the non-profit The Institute for Families and Nannies dedicated to supporting relationships between families and nannies and is the author of Nannies for Modern Moms.
