There you are, standing at the front door, shoes in hand, backpack slung, and your 8-year-old says, “I’ll be there in a minute!” But 1 minute later, they’re not there. And suddenly, you're wondering: What’s wrong with them? Or… is it me?In this revealing episode, we unravel the myth of cognitive timelines—and what truly makes a child “ready.” Forget checklists and charts. We explore how traditional development theories fail our kids and why values like responsibility, accountability, and dependability are the real milestones that matter.Through Priya's RADaR framework, we shift the spotlight from forced progress to authentic growth. From recognizing body signals to becoming the kind of sibling, friend—or future adult—they actually want to be.If you've ever worried your kid isn’t “there yet,” this is your wake-up call. They’re not behind.They’re becoming.---------------------------- Do you have some questions, stories or experiences you hope could be featured on the podcast?

There you are. Your kid scrapes their knee at the pool. They curl up, hurt—but not broken. Another parent looks at you. “Aren’t you going to help?” But what if you didn’t? What if you let them stay in the water, just long enough to learn something?In this episode, we turn parenting upside down. We talk about false expectations—not failure. We unpack how a milkshake swirl leads to a breakdown... and a breakthrough. And we share how a four-year-old cooking breakfast isn’t extraordinary—it’s preparation.We challenge the obsession with resilience and the myth that life must be hard to be worthwhile. What if kids didn’t need to bounce back—because they never saw life as a battle in the first place?If you’re exhausted by the pressure to raise “gritty” kids, this episode is your breath of fresh air. We explore how to raise children who trust themselves, pack their own lunches, question assumptions—and don’t need to “overcome” life to love it.---------------------------- Do you have some questions, stories or experiences you hope could be featured on the podcast?

Picture this: You wake up determined—today’s the day. You’ll finally reclaim time for yourself. Maybe it’s the gym, a quiet coffee, a meditation. But life barges in. A text from work. Milk’s out. Kid’s shoes are missing. And that promise to yourself? Gone again.In this episode, we explore what happens when we treat our own promises as optional. You’ll learn why that erosion of trust—with yourself—is the true cost. And how it’s not willpower you’re lacking. It’s your brain quietly concluding: “You don’t mean it.”With raw stories and surprising insight, we dive into the difference between dependability and reliability. We reveal why kids keep promises better than adults. And we tell the story of a son’s small act of love—a dishwasher, a misunderstanding, a mother’s realization—and how that changed everything.This isn’t about guilt. It’s about reclaiming the power of follow-through.---------------------------- Do you have some questions, stories or experiences you hope could be featured on the podcast?
