Santos, an expert on the science of happiness, shares evidence-based strategies to help parents manage stress, navigate their children’s academic pressures and screen time, and avoid the pitfalls of overparenting. Parents will also explore why prioritizing their own well-being is essential—not only for themselves, but for creating a happier, healthier family life. This session is designed for parents of children of all ages, with a special focus on the middle-grade to teen years.
