In this episode of This Is How We Care, I’m joined by Diane Alisa, author of "A Love Letter to Suburbia: How to Restore the American Village", for a conversation that names what SO many families feel, but haven’t had language for.

We explore how suburbia, car dependence, and zoning laws have shaped our experience of motherhood, fatherhood, childhood, community, and care itself.

In this episode of This Is How We Care, we sit down with developmental psychologist and author Dr. Darcia Narvaez to explore what children—and humanity—truly need to thrive.

Drawing from neuroscience, anthropology, Indigenous wisdom, and decades of research, Dr. Narvaez introduces the concept of the Evolved Nest: the caregiving system humans evolved with for 99% of our history—and how far modern culture has drifted from it.

In this conversation with ceremonialist, teen mentor, and soul-centric educator Johannah Reimer illuminate a path toward reclaiming ancestral wisdom, building ritual in everyday life, supporting girls through their first blood with reverence, and cultivating the council, community, and belonging every young person is wired for.

In this conversation, Emily Race-Newmark and Kazu Haga explore the themes of nonviolence, community healing, and the importance of conflict as a regenerative force.

They discuss the necessity of grief rituals for collective healing, the experience of living in an intentional community, and the various types and levels of conflict.

In the Season 3 opener of 'This Is How We Care', host Emily Race-Newmark reflects on the uncertainty of this time in history and the importance of community, especially in parenting.

She shares about her personal journey of "revillaging" — of bringing the village paradigm back to life — and how the previous seasons of this how highlights this importance in addressing the multi-crises of our times. Emily emphasizes the significance of understanding what future generations need from us and invites listeners to engage in this transformative journey together.
