Dr. Lister is a practicing adult, adolescent and child psychiatrist and is a mother to two daughters. In her book, Giving Hope, she shares how her younger daughter, Liza, was diagnosed with terminal leukemia as a child and how this diagnosis re-framed her perspective on aging and death
Kids today are absorbing far more than many adults realize – often before anyone has explained what it all means. We look at how parents can meet these moments with clarity, honesty, and care, even when the right words don’t come easily.
Guests:
- Dr. Elena Lister, child, adolescent & adult psychiatrist, faculty, Columbia University and Cornell University, author of Giving Hope.
