Can nurturing shape a child’s brain for life?  In this powerful episode, neuroscientist and author Dr. Greer Kirshenbaum unpacks the science behind early brain development and emotional health. We explore how responsive parenting, co-regulation, and caregiver well-being lay the foundation for lifelong resilience. Dr. Kirshenbaum challenges outdated ideas about “spoiling” and offers hope for healing—even for adults who missed early nurture KEY TAKEAWAYS: * Nurturing is foundational for healthy brain development, especially in the earliest years. * A child’s stress response system is shaped by their early life experiences. * Co-regulation between parent and child is essential for emotional safety and long-term well-being. * Infants cannot self-soothe—they rely on responsive, attuned caregivers to feel safe. * The first three years of life are a critical window for brain wiring and emotional imprinting. * You can’t “spoil” a baby with love—nurturing builds emotional resilience and secure attachment. * Caregivers need self-care, too. Regulated parents create regulated children. * Healing is always possible, even after low-nurture or high-stress early experiences. * Development happens in waves—there are key moments across the lifespan for emotional growth and repair. * Parenting is not a solo journey—relationships and community support are essential.
