In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Chanie and I take a close look into the harmful impact of social conditioning on young minds and explore the essential role of parents and educators in fostering positive change. Dr. Chanie shares her own experience of being indoctrinated in an ultra orthodox community and the impact that this conditioning had on her. We examine how societal norms and stereotypes can shape children's beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors, often limiting their potential and perpetuating inequalities.
