About this episode

Dr. Dana Suskind discusses how raising children with empathy and connection is more important than competing with machines.

Artificial intelligence is changing faster than any of us can keep up but this conversation will leave you feeling more hopeful, not more afraid. Dr. Dana Suskind explains why the future doesn't belong to the child who can outperform a machine, but to the one who learns empathy, curiosity, resilience, creativity, and connection through real life. From playground conflicts to bedtime conversations, she makes a compelling case that the ordinary moments of childhood are preparing our kids for an extraordinary future. This episode is a powerful reminder that your presence matters more than perfection and that raising deeply human children may be the greatest gift we can give them.
