Parenting Making You Both Sick? with Dr. Shimi Kang (Ep 160)
Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by award-winning psychiatrist and author Dr. Shimi Kang to explore a radical, yet intuitive concept: that play, creativity, and rest aren’t luxuries - they’re medicine. In a world where high-achievers and neurodivergent thinkers are pushed to exhaustion, Dr. Kang unpacks how this cultural mindset leads to burnout, inflammation, and chronic illness. Drawing from both cutting-edge neuroscience and her own clinical experience, she offers practical tools to help listeners regulate their nervous systems, reconnect with joy, and reclaim their health. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, misunderstood, or stuck in survival mode, this episode will reframe everything.
Takeaways
- Discover the surprising connection between neurodivergence and hypermobility that could redefine your understanding of chronic illness.
- Burnout isn’t just in your head—uncover the biological triggers that shut your system down and what you can do about it.
- Curious about how play can rewire your nervous system? This episode reveals its unexpected power to transform your well-being.
- Could "dolphin parenting" be the secret to breaking free from the stress of overachievement? Tune in to find out!
