单集文稿 ...

  • How do you feel about change?

  • I find change really, really hard.

  • And most parents I know say that's the hardest thing about parenting.

  • It's a constant game of whack-a-mole.

  • It's a roller coaster where you never know when you're about to get on that next dip.

  • Change is so hard.

  • When I did my TED Talk a number of years ago, I met the incredible Dr.

  • Maya Shankar.

  • She was doing her TED Talk all around the topic of change.

  • And I kind of became obsessed with her thoughts and then with her.

  • And I'm so excited that now she has a whole book on this topic called The Other Side of Change.

  • She totally reframes what change is really about, what makes it hard,

  • and what we actually forget about ourselves in the moments when change feels so impossible.

  • This is a conversation that I needed for myself.

  • And I promise you, whether it's about your parenting life, your adult relationships, work, moving,

  • divorce, whatever change you recently went through or going through,

  • this is going to be profoundly helpful to you.

  • I'm Dr.

  • Becky, and this is Good Inside.

  • We'll be back right after this.
