For several generations, it was assumed that it was enough for parents to provide food, safety, shelter and education. Looking at the world in 2023, it's evident there is a mental  health crisis resulting primarily from unmet core needs. Turns out your baby needs more than the basics.
In this episode we break down the 4 core needs as identified by Dr Gordon Neufeld and further described by Dr Gabor Mate. We also look into the reality of anxiety resulting from unmet core needs. This episode is easily the most important one I've ever written/published.
