This is a rich dialogue between a brilliant psychologist and a beautiful actress displaying surprising vulnerability. I am touched by Eva's raw, authentic side and by her modesty. Much love from Toronto.
My girls are 12 now, and everything Eva talked about is just about the same road I trave onl with parenting. It gives me a peace of mind knowing I'm not alone on the road of parenting. Thank you
Every time I see an interview with Eva I love her more and more. She is so relatable and honest. She is different from other women in Hollywood. I am Indian American and dealt with a fear based and chaotic upbringing and yet I always also say that my parents were so loving to us. They were the best parents but they just didn’t know how to express and talk about emotions. I appreciate her openness, vulnerability and honesty in talking about this. It makes her even more beautiful inside and out 🙏🏼❤️
I feel like we will always have this mum guilt/fear and sometimes it feels even heavier when we embark on our own journey of awakening and healing - especially from our childhoods. But to be conscious of that is a HUGE step in the right direction. What a wonderful conversation. Thank you 🙏
Eva you brought me to tears. I can relate so much. Please give yourself some grace. I grew up in a similar household. Our parents loved us but made mistakes due to their culture and upbringing. Im a Latina woman like you. It sounds like you're overwhelmed. Please take care of yourself. You're beautiful Ava. Give yourself some grace
Can I just say this is about the Best thing I've seen in 2024. I am not a mother. But you both have drastically made me See. I've gotten so much from this interview, there's really no way to tell you both how important the things you've talked about is affecting me. Thank you both for Sharing Girls. Hope you both have the Best Day & I'm sending this to everyone I love. You are True Game Changers whether you have realized it or not ❤
WOW! I didn’t expect to be in tears while watching this video…all of the thoughts, struggles and vulnerabilities that Eva shared, I can definitely relate to much more than I would have thought. Like the rest of us, she seems to be just trying to do her best as a parent by looking inward. The struggle is real. I only recently became aware of Dr. Shefali and I can’t get enough of her insights when it comes to parenting! I haven’t read any of her books,yet, but I keep listening to her on UA-cam. I want to be a more conscious parent, but I keep messing up. I have so very much to learn. I need to start meditating again. I think the most important message for me today is it’s ok to be imperfect. Tomorrow is another day, another chance for me to be more aware and to do better. Thank you, Dr. S!
I'm on my lunch break. Just started listening this podcast. I'm a huge fan and follower of Dr Shefali. I can't recommend you enough. I share links even to my ex husband who deals with 2 young kids from his new marriage! 😊 I know I wont be dissapointed from this episode with you and Eva. Greetings from a Mum and nursery teacher from London
As an Hispanic mom of two, I understand the "chancleta". I also hear her when she expresses the working Mom Guilt, Religion shame and the mess of repeating myself with a 6 and 9 year old.
As parents, we all do the best we can to ensure that we give our children a safe, healthy, and loving childhood. We have to remember that we're human and no matter how much we try to get everything right, we're going to make mistakes or sometimes second guess our decisions.. Gives yourself grace and know that your concerns about decisions you make SHOWS your love and desire to give your daughters the best life you can. To me, this shows that you're a great mom, so don't beat yourself up. Enjoy the journey and the experience of childhood through their eyes
It is lovely to see a mother fulfill her natural duties with her children and family. What a grace and a gift! It would be wonderful if ladies could reject the vanities of this world and the sadness they bring. We need to surround ourselves with those who care about our spiritual well-being as well as the rest. Our worth is not defined by our looks nor quantified by what we present to others. Thank you, Mrs. Mendes, for sharing your concerns and the relatable discussion. It is a balance to not to spoil the child, but also instill values and discipline. There truly is science in the saints. Pax.
Love this!! I too deal with exactly this!!! Thank you both for emphasizing this. Beautiful interview/advice. Thank you Eva for being so transparent. You’re always so real!
Such a insightful podcast today as usual. Love watching and relating. I have my grandkids daily after carpool and I definitely could use more advice on how to relate with the three boys.
Thank you for your vulnerability. I have 10 yo and 7 yo boys who still sleep with me when my husband is flying/out of town, lol. That's ok bc a part of them is missing their dad. They rotate days until he comes home. I have told my 10 yo though that he will have to sleep in his room once he reaches middle school lol. Many folks pass judgement but my kids are also neurodivergent, and I encourage them to fill their cups bc it is a stressfull world. I am an occupational therapist, and many times, they don't like talking or reading before bedtime, so they prefer sensory input (e.g., sensory brushing/massages) to help them reset and stay regulated. I lean in to fill their cup. What fills my cup? Therapy/Journaling, reading, gardening, working to serve others, etc. I give myself grace, time, and I accept my limitations. I tell my boys that whenever I yelled it's bc I lost control and I am trying my best...
Please help Dr Shefali! My daughter reminds me a lot of my toxic, narcissistic, drama-queen mother. It triggers me and I feel I can’t connect to my daughter and show up to support her in her struggles. I am either emotionally checked out or overwhelmed when she goes on her screaming and crying matches which is like 70 % of her wake time. 🙈
Note to Dr. Shefali: Please know the correct title of Eva's beautiful book. It's validating our cultural treasures. Eva, I love your openness about anxiety & motherhood. Thank you for bringing awareness to matresonance. Beautiful & meaningful book, Eva!

“What do I want to model for them” I’m taking that away from this conversation. This was beautiful and real and inspiring. Thank you both!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Yes the rushing & yelling are my struggles too. Thank you for being vulnerale, honest.

Can you please do a segment on how to get your child to have a good and optimistic attitude.
