Whether you're a new parent or raising teens, this episode offers both inspiration and actionable tools to create deeper connection, more joy, and lasting well-being for the whole family. Dr. Greer Kirschenbaum and guest Jessica Joelle Alexander discuss how Denmark’s parenting style— centered on respect, empathy, and togetherness— creates a more connected and compassionate approach to parenting.
Author of the best selling book ‘The Danish Way of Parenting,’ Jessica Joelle Alexander shares the deeply personal and cross-cultural journey that inspired her to write her groundbreaking book—a journey that began when she married a Dane, experienced Danish parenting firsthand, and realized how profoundly different (and effective) it was.
This conversation dives into the philosophy behind the P.A.R.E.N.T. acronym—Play, Authenticity, Reframing, Empathy, No ultimatums, and Togetherness (and Hygge). Jessica's also introduces her new book, The Danish Way Every Day, a hands-on guide to bringing this philosophy into your home, from screen time to bedtime routines. Plus, she shares her latest project, Raising Digital Citizens, which helps families navigate the challenges of technology with empathy, communication, and mutual trust.
