When we talk about childhood, we are actually talking about the adult we become. In this episode of the be levels podcast, we delve into an uncomfortable but necessary idea: perhaps we are not understanding what it really means to develop as a human being. From the way we are born, educated, or fed, to how we experience childhood or adolescence, everything seems to respond to the same logic that is distancing us from what is essential. Together with Isabel Fernández del Castillo, we address key topics such as childbirth, parenting, disconnection from nature, the industrialization of environments, the impact of technology, and the role of the family in emotional development. A profound conversation that is not just about children, but about how we are building the adults of the future. Topics we explore 00:00 - Intro02:52 - When do we stop being children?
