  • Time to Pivot: Redefining Leadership, Success, and Family with Cathy Cassani Adams

    Time to Pivot: Redefining Leadership, Success, and Family with Cathy Cassani Adams
    Jun 26 2025
    Dr. Dan interviews parenting expert, author, co-host of the Zen Pop Parenting podcast, and longtime friend Cathy Cassani Adams about self-awareness, life transitions, and the evolving journey of parenting. On today’s episode, Dr. Dan and Cathy explore parental self-understanding, ways to raise resilient kids, how to listen to your body’s cues (your “dashboard”), and ending the myth of perfection in parenting, leadership, and life. Dr. Dan and Cathy also share why authenticity and vulnerability matter and how Cathy’s own experiences with grief, family, and creativity led her to redefine success, joy, and contentment – and inspired the evolution of Zen Parenting Radio to the new Zen Pop Parenting podcast. Whether you’re a parent, educator, leader, or simply someone navigating life’s transitions, this episode will inspire you to lead with compassion, stay grounded in your truth, and embrace the beautiful messiness of the human journey. Today’s heartfelt and deeply reflective conversation is a perfect companion to Dan and Cathy’s previous podcast discussion about parenting and mental health.

  • How to Break Up with Perfection: Redefining Success, Love, and Self-Worth with Claire Berger

    How to Break Up with Perfection: Redefining Success, Love, and Self-Worth with Claire Berger
    Jun 19 2025
    In this inspiring episode, Dr. Dan interviews comedian, improv actor, speaker, and author Claire Berger about her thought-provoking book How Much Is Enough? Getting More by Living with Less. Claire challenges us to embrace the concept of “enoughness” and to live more authentically. Drawing from her multifaceted career—stand-up comic, warm-up artist for sitcoms, and HGTV host—Claire shares powerful insights on how to redefine success on our own terms. On this episode, Claire and Dr. Dan explore the universal question: How much is enough? – and their answers redefine success, self-worth, perfectionism, and growth. Filled with humor, heart, and provocative questions, Dr. Dan and Claire encourage listeners to appreciate who they are, what they have, and to recognize that they are already more than enough. This conversation will shift your mindset and inspire you to embrace your perfectly imperfect, purpose-filled life. Learn more at www.claireberger.com and follow Claire on Instagram @4claireb.

  • The End is the Beginning: The Story of a Mother, From End to Beginning with Jill Bialosky

    The End is the Beginning: The Story of a Mother, From End to Beginning with Jill Bialosky
    Jun 12 2025
    Dr. Dan invites back a favorite guest, author and poet Jill Bialosky, to talk about her new memoir The End Is the Beginning: A Personal History of My Mother. Jill shares with Dr. Dan how the pandemic, the isolation of grief, and her mother’s decline due to Alzheimer’s inspired her to write this book as a way to preserve her mother’s life and legacy. Dan and Jill explore the complexities of parenthood and daughterhood, the weight of generational trauma, and much more. Their conversation reveals that healing can come through storytelling and sharing. Today’s conversation inspires us to consider the full lives our parents lived before we ever knew them. More than a literary conversation, today’s episode is a universal one about family, memory, loss, grief, and ultimately love. For more information www.jillbialosky.com and follow @jillbialosky on Instagram. Please listen to Dr. Dan’s previous interview with Jill about her extraordinary memoir History of a Suicide: My Sister’s Unfinished Life.
