For the most important hat I wear, I love having this support. It helps me have grace for myself, which is something I need to practice. It’s nice having such an excellent coach and regular bite-size reminders of how to be kinder to myself.

Today’s episode was something I definitely needed to hear. I’ve been dealing with the same type of issue so to hear this was so helpful. Thank you

This episode is amazing! I have listened to it multiple times. It has really helped me with my anxiety. I loved the ending ; great reminder to be kind to yourself.

Dr B honestly the episode on not punishing your kids for bad behaviour?! They’re never gonna learn! I’m a single mom and my kids mess up they going to be cleaning the whole house but not punishing them at ALL oh h*ll nah. If you don’t give them discipline they won’t learn discipline! You wanna teach algebra you gotta learn algebra.

If there is one parenting podcast worth listening, it’s this one! Lots of valuable advice and insights. It helps me become a better parent.

My wife turned me on to Dr. Becky and the episode on consequences made me completely rethink parenting. Why am I as an emo dad fighting his own amygdala treating my child in a way I would absolutely hate to be treated? Dr. Becky uses such amazing analogies to put these kid problems into adult world context. So illuminating. Thank you.

Such a good podcast to make me look at parenting in a different perspective. Also powerful when I hear things that I’m doing as parent is such a huge impact for my kids.

One of the very few I listen to

This podcast teaches me in such a way that I am not upset about all the ways I fail as a parent. I find the advice to be very helpful, easy to implement, and it calms me down when I’m stressed.

Dr. Becky has a way of explaining situations with kids that just make sense. Through stories and examples, she helps me have more compassion during those trying times and understanding for what’s happening. Love episode Jan 1st episode on How Dare You Speak to Me That Way where she separated what a kid said from the feeling the child was experiencing instead. Highly recommend this podcast!

I was in a deep hole with my 5 year old . I felt inadequate as a mom . In desperation I just started googling parent podcast. Dr.Becky’s came up - I listening to it and I feel so seen, heard and understood as a mom . It also made me realIe I AM doing my best and trying to help my son in all the ways . So thank you - Dr.Becky !!

So many great insights !

Just listened to the episode with Cleo Wade and feel like someone has finally put to words what postpartum depression felt like. Wow. Just crying in the cheese aisle at Aldi feeling a little less alone with my experiences.

The “How to Talk to Kids about Politics” episode was awesome. Dr. Becky, Beth, and Sarah provided practical nuggets throughout the conversation. My kids (twin 7 yo, 5 yo) love the book, “One Vote, Two Votes, I Vote, You Vote.” My husband and me use it to get their minds thinking and then we answer their questions.

This podcast is wise, compassionate, insightful, and supportive. I recommend it for all parents! Dr Becky is an important touchstone in our house when we are thinking about how to be the “sturdy leaders” we want to be.

Thank you Dr. Becky for this wonderful resource. I love the format of the episodes and the content. The most recent episode resonated with me so deeply. Thank you! Thank you!

This is one of the key things I learned from Dr Becky. When I was growing up, I never learned that feelings and emotions should be pinpointed and expressed. I always thought the best way to deal with emotions was to deal with them internally, get over them, and move on. It was causing lots of internal stress, low self esteem and awareness, wanting to escape from difficult emotions which eventually leads to more explosions and meltdowns later on, etc. On the surface, Dr Becky is teaching me how to parent. Deep inside, Dr Becky is teaching me how to deal with myself better, which is the first and foremost thing to deal with a kid having a hard time. I recommend everyone who has a crying child inside to listen to Dr Becky and read her book. It won’t be a magic pill that solves all the problems at once, but it will help you start the healing process, which is what is truly good for you.

I don’t have kids, but this podcast has significantly changed the way I think about my relationship with others and myself. It honestly is a game changer.

There are so many episodes of Good Inside that I return to over and over in my work with kids of all ages. Long story short, Dr. Becky’s strategies WORK. And best of all, the perspective shift that comes from practicing these strategies regularly helps ME stay more centered more often, which I am just endlessly grateful for; it has changed how how I interact with others and how I am as a person. I recommend Good Inside to everyone, because the really valuable stuff you get from Dr. Becky is applicable to all humans, not just parents.

Reconnection after disconnection is such a powerful tool in parenting and relationships in general! Thank you for the helpful advice along with scenarios for us to practice during the opportunities to do so!

Dr. Becky has helped changed my view on parenting in a healthier way. Her podcasts are easy and quick to listen to with guests that are struggling just like other parents. She changes the idea of “advice” on stopping a behavior to how to help my child deal with their emotions that are causing the behavior. This is so eye opening.

Thank you so much for the content you provide. Your book and now your podcast are amazing and must-consume resources for any parent.

As a momma & a seasoned preschool teacher you are SO spot on and have a way of keeping things simple. Appreciate how aligned you are to our school philosophy! Will you do an episode on separation anxiety for parents of preschoolers? Your chapter in your book is great but these parents are busy!! Listening might be more accessible. Thanks

Oh wow. Spot on. I have been caregiving in both directions since having my first son, 7 years ago. I feel like “my life” is on hold a lot. I LOVE caring for my loved ones and I am so tired. Was a relief to hear about another’s experience.

Thanks, Dr. Becky, for your pertinent and timely episode on back to school anxiety. My child has been very emotional about going to child care as I return to work and it has triggered my own doubts and insecurities. I love the quote about being the pilot of the plane. Thanks for these scripts/mantras I can use in my own scenario with my own child.

As the host of my own podcast called, How To Teach Your Kids About Money, I was not expecting the recent episode on this topic to be as truly profound as it was. Dr. Becky opened my eyes in a way other parenting podcasts haven’t, especially around the idea of money. We focus on helping breakdown the walls that keep parents from talking about what they often feel is difficult. We focus on tools to help. But I so appreciated Dr. Becky’s take on the focus we parents need to have on self-worth with regards to these conversations. I appreciated how she discussed the important aspects of making sure our kids are getting satisfaction from within, and how the importance of downplaying comparisons between what they have, and what others have. In fact, I’d love to have Dr. Becky expand on these ideas on our show! Our audience should hear her take, and I would love to hear for my own home!!! Kudos to Dr. Becky and team …

I am a pediatric psychiatric provider, business owner, and a newly single mom of a 4yo. As both a parent and a mental health provider myself, this is hands down the best parenting podcast and moreover, the best foundational approach to parenting. I think the simplicity of it and scripts she gives make it so much more realistic and doable than many of the other more complicated programs out there meant to address various concerns. As a provider who has read all the books in the pediatric mental health section, I think Dr. Becky does an exquisite job of teaching parents how to find that perfect balance of empathy and validation while also setting firm boundaries. I think this is where so many parents classically struggle as they tend to feel you have to pick one side or the other. As a mom myself, I use so much of this with my own child on a daily basis and can vouch for the short and long term benefits. The circumstances and events following my divorce have been hard, including ongoing concerns about what happens at his dads. I know all I can do is continue to be the stable, loving parent I am and do my best to teach my son the language and skills I know he needs to build resilience. I love hearing my 4yo speak these words and come to adopt these approaches in his own way. I don’t know if there is any greater comfort to know he has these skills and thought process already. Hearing him get curious and start to verbalize things that didn’t feel right about various events that happen, especially at his dads, and knowing I’m creating a space where he is comfortable to do that is such an invaluable gift. I know it undoubtedly contributes to the amazing bond we continue to share. It also gives me permission to be human, which I think every mom in America needs right now. Recently, we were playing the always fascinating role reversal game where he was the parent and I was the kid (highly recommend it) and I was pretending to have a tantrum and making threats to hit him. His continued response was “I won’t let you (hit me/throw the toy)”. He even said it in the same authoritative but calm voice I use. He also has shared many examples where he set limits with others in situations where he knew what he needed despite others not liking it. Many of which would have been hard for most adults to do. For example, recognizing he needed space from a younger cousin at a family reunion, telling her that, and then going in a different room and shutting the door when she kept following him, even when she stood crying outside the door and other family members were trying to say he should play with her AND feeling solid in his decision when he told me about it later. Absolutely amazing. I could give 100 other examples. Highly recommend for every parent. What an amazing world it would be if every kid was raised with these skills 🌎💗😊

I just put on the clean plate club episode and I was sobbing before the 10 minute mark feeling like you were reading my mind 😭😭 the advice that followed could change everything for me. Thank you for this 💞

Compelled to write a review since this is a fantastic podcast with not just insightful examples but actionable scripts for everyday scenarios that as parents you would otherwise just react to. Lot of mindfulness to put them into practice but at-least I have a starting point.

Listening to the podcast and now Dr. Becky’s book is on the top of my booklist. Her guidance is actionable and parent action focused. She manages to deliver her message with some light humor and in a reassuring way that even our not so hot moments as parents are all part of the process. The guest interviews keep the topics fresh and I loved the recent episode with James Clear.

This podcast is absolutely amazing. Every episode I listen to feels like therapy/parenting guidance/effective strategies/emotional support/my village all wrapped up in one invaluable experience. There’s literally an episode for every single struggle I’ve had in my 8 years of motherhood. Every parent should follow this show. In the 3 weeks since I’ve discovered it and been binging the episodes, my outlook on my life has improved drastically and I feel so much stronger emotionally and mentally. Dr. Becky and her team are truly amazing. ♥️

I love this podcast! I listen to Dr. Becky every morning on my way to work, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I have learned so much about parenting and myself through listening to this Podcast. Thank you Dr. Becky!!

I love this podcast as a professional & mom of 4 … perfect podcast

Dr. Becky models the behavior she is teaching by not only providing scripts but also by showing empathy and compassion to her listeners’ parenting struggles. 10/10 recommendation from me!

I love listening to your podcast! Thank you for providing easy to follow examples that we can do.

Dr Becky is a wonderful resource for parents, grandparents, really anyone who comes in contact with children. As a new grandmother I’m trying to have a beginner’s mind with my granddaughter. As I’m learning new ways of having a relationship with my granddaughter, I feel closer to my adult children.Thank you Dr Becky!

My daughter and I listen to you regularly and I marvel at the tools she now has in her toolbox as she raises her own daughter. Thank you for allowing an option to give a gift membership bcz I just gave one to her. I wish I had this info 34 years ago when she was born but it’s never too late to refine my own parenting skills and help her as she reparents and raises my granddaughter.

Navigating being a solo-working-mom without a village can be hard. Thank you Dr Becky for all of the advice and help! XOXO.

Such a good listen and so informative for my husband and I as grandparents and trying to learn new strategies for our terrific grandchildren! Great way to change the world one family at a time. LOVE Dr Becky.

I love this podcast! I find that Dr. Becky puts parenting on such a way that makes it relatable and honest. No one is perfect and embracing all the good and learning from the bad while trying to be our best selves is an honest, approachable and attainable way to be. I’ve cried listening to this podcast on certain topics because it reaches my inner child and says the things I always needed to hear. I hope to do that for my children and following her advice moves me in the right direction.

Dr. Becky is the embodied goddess every. Single. Human. On. Earth. Needs on their side. Her work, advice, ideas, and support is an invaluable resource and is changing my life in so many ways. If you aren’t part of the membership, take the plunge. You *will not* regret it!

Yes, this is a “parenting” podcast, but it is also so much more. In connection with pursuing my own therapy work, and learning about and healing myself, this podcast provides me the support and insight I need to be a better version of myself, to (re) connect with who I am, and in so doing makes me a better person, friend, mother, and wife. Dr Becky’s professional view insight, coupled with her own personal challenges and the insight of her varied guests always resonates with me at least on some level. I was a bit skeptical at first, but my sons have a lot of anxiety and I wanted to help them and gave this a chance. And I’m so happy I did! Try it!

Thank you so much for shining light on this topic! For me, it wasn’t about the journey of becoming pregnant, thankfully, I was blessed it have had an amazing pregnancy and no issues conceiving. When asked, most anticipate a response that I had miscarriages or fertility issues. That wasn’t my story, it was a choice due to our families circumstances. Knowing exactly what we needed and being able to make that decision for our family and our overall well being. Maybe it was age too, life experiences and being more “aware” - either way, having the conversation is such a positive step in the right direction, thank you!

Dr. Becky, I cannot thank you enough. Your book and podcast have changed my life. I suffered pretty severe post-partum depression and anxiety. I had so much pent up guilt from various childhood issues and new found mom guilt as well. This podcast has done just as much for me if not more than my own therapy has. I went from never wanting to leave my child to carving out the time I need for myself and my relationships guilt-free. I’ve learned so much about myself and the parent I am/strive to be. Thank you thank you thank you! I recommend you to anybody who will listen!

I meant to write a review sooner but couldn’t figure out how 😂 This podcast is life altering. My parenting went from a 5 (of course I loved and cared for my kids) to a 10, and only made my life easier. I re-listen to several impactful episodes over and over. I feel like you could re-peat some of your episode themes but with new people calling in- the information never gets old and it’s so important to keep listening and learning to maintain the skill. Thank you Dr Becky!!! You have seriously changed my life and my relationship with my children. I can’t do enough to thank you.

Dr Becky has changed my life and introduced joy and pure happiness back into our lives. We waited 18 years to have a child and we’re truly blessed with the healthy baby boy. However, it was a big adjustment and I was constantly struggling with guilt of enjoying my baby and at the same time missing the life we had before. Listening to her podcasts, put things in perspective and brought balance in our lives. I’m learning so much from each episode and cannot thank her enough for discussing so many important topics in each parents life.

I could listen to this episode so many times-it’s so rich! I also plan to use this information as I navigate my reparenting journey, telling my little self these things. Thank you for this!! 💛

Love this podcast, I find it very useful as a parent to 2 toddlers. This episode with Dr. Mate is very irritating. His stance on sleep training feels out of touch with parents who are in the thick of it. He’s creating a lot of guilt, shame, and unrealistic expectations for parents who need to sleep.

Dr Becky offers wisdom we ALL need, in a way anyone can understand. Her strategies and scripts have positively impacted my relationships with others including myself. Wanna be a better person? Help yourself to some Good Inside.

Thank you for such practical application. The empathy and passion is so genuine. Appreciate this podcast!
