04. Secure Attachment & Informed Parenting with Helping Families Thrive

On this episode of The Balance After Baby podcast, I sit down with Dr. Jenna Elgin & Dr. Shanna Alvarez of Helping Families Thrive to bust some myths wide open about attachment parenting and secure attachment as well as give all of us some insight into how we can make informed decisions as parents. In the age of social media and misinformation galore, Dr. Jenna and Dr. Shanna help clear the air on a few hot topics (more like dumpster fires) with their expertise as clinical psychologists and backgrounds in research science. They are two amazing women and I was so honored to be able to have this conversation with them.
