How to Raise (and Be) an Adult with NYT-Bestselling Author Julie Lythcott-Haims

Raising – and being – an adult is a life’s work. Author, speaker, and activist Julie Lythcott-Haims explores what can get in the way of thriving as an adult and how helicopter parenting fails our children. A former Stanford Dean of Freshman and author of the perennial bestseller, “How to Raise an Adult,” Julie shares ideas from her latest book, “Your Turn: How to Be an Adult.” We cover ideas for tackling fear, the perils of over-parenting, and strategies to fuel resilience in ourselves and our children. Plus, how to get unstuck in midlife and why Julie is throwing her hat into the political ring.SHOW NOTES + TRANSCRIPT:acertainagepod.comFOLLOW A CERTAIN AGE: Instagram Facebook LinkedIn GET INBOX INSPO: Sign up for our newsletter AGE BOLDLY We share new episodes, giveaways, links we live, and midlife resources LIKE BOOKS?
