Re-Air: Your Parenting Wakeup Call | Dr. Carla Naumburg

About this episode

In honor of International Self-Care Day, we’re revisiting the informative, fun, and practical episode we did in 2023 with licensed clinical social worker and bestselling author Dr. Carla Naumburg.


Dr. Naumburg helps us break down “sh*tty parent syndrome”, the evolution in parenting methods from generation to generation, and practical ways to practice self-care. Mayim and Carla discuss the unusual origin story of their friendship after Carla wrote an article criticizing Mayim’s parenting techniques. They explain the importance of honesty when sharing parenting struggles and not comparing yourself to other parents, how meditation impacts their parenting skills, and the dark side of “mommy blogging.” Dr. Naumburg shares why she doesn’t believe there are bad parents, what self-compassion in parenting really means, and her tips for parenting with anxiety and mindfulness-based stress reduction.
