Today’s episode of the Do Good Podcast is a profound & thought-provoking conversation with psychoanalyst Erica Komisar, and it explores some deeply meaningful ideas about parenting, motherhood, and emotional development. We talk about why the first three years of a child’s life are so foundational, and how a secure attachment with a parent—especially a mother—can shape a child’s mental health and personality for years to come. Erica doesn’t shy away from big topics either—we get into the impact of the feminist movement, how modern society undervalues the role of mothers, and why being emotionally present for our kids matters more than we think. Her thought-provoking insights challenge the status quo and remind us of the profound power of presence, sacrifice, and love in raising emotionally healthy children.
