Published: July 1, 2024, 7:01 a.m.

Hi, It\u2019s Elise, host of Pulling the Thread. Starting next Monday, I\u2019m doing another special series\u2014this one is about growing up, and no, it\u2019s definitely not just for parents. It\u2019s mostly about re-parenting, or understanding the driving factors of how we all come to understand the world. You\u2019ll hear from four very different voices about childhood, social programming, and development. Two are pioneers in gender development: One of my all-time heroes, developmental psychologist Carol Gilligan, who I write about in my Substack all-the-time who wrote In a Different Voice in the \u201880s, is joining me on the show, and so is Niobe Way, who does for boys what Carol Gilligan does for girls. I\u2019m also talking with legendary pediatrician Harvey Karp, creator of The Happiest Baby on the Block, the founder of the Snoo, and an ardent and early environmentalist\u2014and Carissa Schumacher, a full-body psychic medium and dear friend who is going to talk to us about what it\u2019s like to raise and be a highly empathic and intuitive person\u2014and how you can retain and develop those abilities. Or shut them down. It will be a great series, coming every Monday for the next month. I\u2019ll see you every Thursday for a regular episode.\n \nTo learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy\n \n Learn more about your ad choices.
