Raising Children, Raising Ourselves

🎧 EPISODE 13: Raising Children, Raising Ourselves

Parenting invites us into some of our deepest growth—challenging our beliefs, emotional patterns, and ideas of balance. In this episode of The Human Experience (THE) Podcast, Dr. Carlos Garcia and Supna Doshi explore the complexities of work-life balance, conscious parenting, and the emotional intelligence required to raise children with both love and resilience.

Carlos reflects on recent professional milestones, including a speaking engagement and a renewed focus on aligning his work with personal values. The conversation naturally expands into deeply personal territory as he shares reflections on family decisions around frozen embryos and the emotions that surface when navigating timing, readiness, and trust in the body's wisdom.

Supna and Carlos then dive into their contrasting yet complementary parenting styles. Supna emphasizes connection, explanation, and helping children understand the "why" behind boundaries, while Carlos wrestles with balancing tenderness and firmness—especially in moments that require discipline. Through real-life parenting moments, including rupture and repair, they unpack how gentle and conscious parenting is less about perfection and more about presence, accountability, and emotional honesty.

As the episode unfolds, they explore the importance of empathy, quality time, and inner work as foundations for healthy parent-child relationships. From teaching emotional awareness to modeling reconciliation and trust, this conversation invites listeners to reflect on how parenting—and life itself—asks us to grow alongside those we love.

✨ Parenting isn't about having all the answers—it's about growing, repairing, and learning alongside our children.
