We are the self help generation. There is so much access to information on how to better ourselves, work through all the sh*t from our childhoods, and break cycles. Today’s episode is going to be particularly interesting to anyone who is a parent, but even if you don’t have kids yourself, it will help you understand some of the psychology of your own experiences growing up and how those experiences show up in our day to day lives.

Dr. Shefali is joining us today and she has been described by Oprah herself as “one of the most profound parenting experts of our time”. With a doctorate in clinical psychology, Dr Shefali is a New York Times bestselling author multiple times over, and the founder of the Conscious Parenting movement. Much of her work centers around healing a lot of the stuff that we are carrying with us from our childhood into our adult lives - and how it shows up in our parenting styles. She also answers one of the biggest parenting questions we tend to ask ourselves - how to build resilience in kids in today’s chaotic world.

We chat:

• How Dr Shefali’s work was revolutionary at the time, but we are now immersed in it
• Our ego gets in the way when we are parenting
• How much of our experience as a parent is impacted by our own childhood
• The real reason children have tantrums
• Our kids don’t need the ‘heavily architectured’ lives we give them full of extra curricular activities every day
• Building resilience in kids and how to find the balance
• Unpacking our challenging relationships with our parents
• Is parenting actually a selfless act?

Hey lifers!

First up, we address the reports that the future of the podcast is unknown.

Britt has a friend that received a message from someone they went on two dates with. If Britt hadn't seen it with her own eyes she would have said it was a fake story! Last week we told you about the ridiculous reason Keeshia and Delilah ended up at the vets and today we share the silliest reason your pet made you have a vet visit.

Halloween is around the corner. Do you get the treats for the kids or do you pretend you’re not home? Britt wants the kids to tap dance and Keeshia wants dog ‘trick and treating’ to start.

Victoria's Secret ditches ‘woke’ rebrand and returns to 'unapologetically sexy' roots.

Last week, the new and improved Victoria's Secret Fashion Show made its return to Brooklyn for the second year in a row. They have reversed their "woke" rebrand and they’re moving back to a more traditional, "sexy" image after a period of declining sales, after the reaction to the failure of its inclusivity-focused marketing.

In 2025 is woke branding dead or just being recalibrated?

We unpack how virtue signalling and brands undergoing impurity tests may have contributed to consumer fatigue. We speak about whether we still want advocacy for social justice issues in marketing and whether this ‘nostalgic’ return to advertising might have more to do with more conservative politics than anything else.
We speak about the notion of ‘go woke, go broke’ and the more recent American Eagle campaign with Sydney Sweeney and Carl’s Jr with Alis Earle.
