Thrilled to welcome Dr. Shefali back to PREMA for this special book event / talk. Renowned clinical psychologist, bestselling author, and founder of the Conscious Parenting movement Dr. Shefali presents TWO new hands-on guides for 21st-century parenting: one provides a pathway forward to reclaim how daughters are seen, supported, and raised; and another radically reimagines how boys are understood, nurtured, and raised.
Your registration includes the pre-order of both books, plus a 90-minute talk and Q&A with Dr. Shefali.
Once the books come in, we will let you know so you can pick up your books prior to the event if you like. Otherwise, you can wait and pick them up on the evening.
Raising Conscious Daughters: Building Confidence, Courage, and Inner Power in an Anxious World, is a wake-up call to something unfolding in the inner lives of girls today. On the surface, they are excelling and achieving in ways that would seem unimaginable to previous generations. Beneath this success, anxiety, perfectionism, and self-harm are surging, exposing a devastating paradox between the confident, high-achieving facade the world applauds and the fragile, unmoored self that struggles silently within.
Raising Conscious Sons: Cultivating Purpose, Connection, and Inner Power in a Chaotic World explores the impossible and contradictory mandates with which today’s boys are being bombarded: Be tough but never vulnerable; be sensitive but never weak; be strong but never domineering. Caught between these warring expectations, boys are experiencing an unprecedented crisis of masculinity, marked by alarming rates of suicide, aggression, isolation, and apathy.
All of this is happening in a digital age that commodifies attention, comparison, and worth, and that amplifies disconnection and performative identity. Drawing on real-life clinical cases, interviews with children and parents, and deeply practical, prescriptive guidance, Dr. Shefali offers urgently needed maps for helping our children thrive. J
Dr. Shefali Tsabary has redefined how families understand selfhood, connection, and the inner life of children. She works where psychology meets consciousness, tracing the hidden forces that shape identity, relationships, and the way we inhabit the world. Trained at Columbia University, she has spent decades guiding families to move beyond patterns of control and fear toward presence and authenticity. Her work brings Western psychology and Eastern wisdom into lived practice, creating a path for children―and the adults who raise them―to know themselves fully.
