  • Summary


  • Nancy Adler was a renowned health psychologist who documented the powerful role that education, income and self-perceived social status play in a person's health and longevity.

    She was that rare person who was highly accomplished in her professional life but never lost touch with what mattered most to her: her family. As a mother, she was such a consistent and steady presence to her two daughters that they were surprised to discover that she even had a job.

    In this episode, Julia Adler-Milstein and Sarah Adler-Milstein talk with Katie about what it was like to be raised by such an unflappable, warm, and generous mother.

    Nancy Adler died in January 2024. Here is her New York Times Obituary.
