In this conversation, Pressman talks through the importance of having a strength-based (vs. deficit) approach to parenting; the difference between boundaries, limits, and rules; and how to use the five principles to build resilience.

“We cannot feel well physically or mentally unless we are feeling loved by the people around us and the way that we do that is by being good listeners,” says Peoplehood cofounder Julie Rice. In this week’s episode, Cleo Wade sits down with Rice to talk about her entrepreneurial journey from founding SoulCycle to the impetus behind Peoplehood, a guided group practice where people can share, listen, and cultivate their interpersonal relationship skills. “Relationships are a process, and they take time and attention and work and love,” says Rice. “And the same grit and ambition that you give to your career and all the other things need to go into relationships. They don't just happen.” (After you listen, head to Peoplehood and use code Peoplehood1 for a free gathering session.)
