Dr. Susan Landers is a mother, grandmother, author, speaker, educator and retired neonatologist. 

She practiced neonatology (the critical care of sick infants and premature babies) for over thirty years. While working full-time she also raised three children, all to young adulthood.

Her children presented her with many typical maternal trials and triumphs. She is an expert in breastfeeding medicine and donor human milk banking, and she served as a regional and national instructor for the American Academy of Pediatrics.

In this episode we discuss:

  • The importance of enhancing our social connections and relationships.
  • How to be kinder to ourselves and remain positive during stressful situations. 
  • Ways to cope when we're feeling overstimulated.
  • What she has learned being a grandmother with adult children and ways her parenting style has changed.
