This episode explores the challenges parents face in supporting their children's development, particularly those with special needs.
Phoebe discusses the concept of neuro movement, a practice that emphasizes connecting with children rather than fixing them, and the importance of creating a nurturing environment for brain development.
The role of music, emotional connection, and the need for flexible goals in parenting are also highlighted, along with the significance of self-care for parents.
