  • Nuanced, balanced, and genuinely helpful

    This podcast has been an incredible resource for me as a parent. I’ve been a listener since day one, and over the years I’ve learned so much from the nuance and balanced conversations shared here.

    The guest interviews are consistently thoughtful and knowledgeable, and Dr. Sarah Bren is a fantastic host. She has a rare ability to hold space for guests without interrupting, while still gently guiding the conversation in a way that makes it feel nuanced, well-rounded, and genuinely interesting.

  • Grateful

    Thank you Sarah and Caity for the podcast on breath holding and for answering my question. I am so grateful! It was super comforting knowing you both have experienced it too and the information you gave has certainly helped my understanding of breath holding spells. I feel more confident now that I can support my little boy in the way he needs before during and after these spells. Thank you again!

  • Vaccines :(

    The vaccine episode does not tell the truth about vaccines and the vaccine injuries and adverse reactions that many children have. Parents, please do your own research and do not make decisions based on this episode.

  • Thank you for so much insightful content

    I have been struggling parenting my young family and found your podcast while searching for answers on Google. SEO did its thing. Arrived at your podcast and I’ve never felt better about myself . You gave me language to understand all the emotions I’m going through and the ones my children are going through. It has really helped me manage my emotions (not all the time) but many of your podcasts have me permission to not get it right all the time. Thank you from London, England
