Your Kid’s Immune System Isn’t Just About Germs — It’s About You

🔥 What if your child’s immune system is actually responding to you? In this eye-opening episode, Matt & Alona sit down with Dr. Steve Cole, a pioneering social genomics researcher, to expose the invisible ways our relationships — and even our vibes — shape our family’s biology. From chronic disease to viral vulnerability, connection turns out to be a major health intervention.

😳 Dr. Cole explains how emotional disconnection, unpredictable social environments, and even parenting in “survival mode” can silently activate stress responses in our kids' bodies. You’ll never look at your child’s flare-ups or emotional meltdowns the same again.

💥 Hard-hitting truths we unpack:

1. Why your child can feel safe and still be under constant biological threat.
2. How “loneliness” — even in a house full of people — might be the most toxic stressor of all.
3. What happens when your child watches you run on empty — and how your nervous system becomes a model for theirs.
