Elevate with Robert Glazer

Lenore Skenazy⁠ is the president and co-founder of ⁠Let Grow⁠, the nonprofit she started with Jonathan Haidt, Peter Gray, and Daniel Shuchman to make childhood independence easy, normal, and legal again. In 2008, she let her 9-year-old son ride the New York City subway home alone, wrote a column about it, and was promptly dubbed "America's Worst Mom" by the national media. She turned that firestorm into Free-Range Kids, the book and blog that launched a movement. A former New York Daily News columnist whose writing has appeared everywhere from NPR to Mad Magazine, her 2025 TED talk, "Why You Should Spend Less Time with Your Kids," was named to TED's list of the ten essential talks of the year, and her work has helped pass childhood independence laws in more than a dozen states. The second edition of Free-Range Kids, subtitled How Parents and Teachers Can Let Go and Let Grow, is out now.

Lenore Skenazy joined host Robert Glazer to talk on Childhood Independence, How Fear Spreads, and Why Free-Range Is Not Neglect.

On a classic edition of Weekend Conversations on the Elevate Podcast, host Robert Glazer and Joey Coleman discuss the beautiful ones. They talk about a 1968 mouse utopia experiment that collapsed despite having every need m:et, why removing every hardship also removes the reason to show up, and where comfort may have quietly replaced challenge in our own lives, and why all of this makes you stand out.

Molly Graham⁠ has spent nearly two decades inside companies during their fastest and messiest years of growth. She started at the Council on Foreign Relations and as a wilderness instructor for the National Outdoor Leadership School before moving into technology, where her team at Google went from 25 people to 125 in nine months. She then spent nearly five years at Facebook building the culture, compensation, and performance systems that carried it from 500 employees to 5,500, was COO of Quip, the productivity startup that sold to Salesforce for $750 million, and ran operations at the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative. In 2015, she wrote "Give Away Your Legos" for First Round Review, which handed the technology industry its standard metaphor for scaling. Molly now runs Glue Club, writes the Substack Lessons, and in April took over as host of TED's WorkLife from Adam Grant.

Molly Graham joined host Robert Glazer to talk on Scaling Through Chaos, the Line Between Strong Culture and a Cult, and Why Delegation Is an Identity Problem.

On a classic episode of Weekend Conversations on ⁠⁠the Elevate Podcast⁠⁠, host Robert Glazer and producer Mick Sloan discuss a unique approach to countering harmful and hateful beliefs, championed by educator and author Irshad Manji. Robert and Mick dig into why arguing with people we disagree with doesn't work, and why it's much more effective to seek understanding--even when it feels impossible.
