  • Not jealous of Hilary

    I recently started listening to this podcast. I like that it’s easy to listen to in the background while I’m doing other things. However, as someone (me) who is skeptical of vaccine safety, it concerns me that someone who is pro vaccine (Dr Peds) also thinks that the reason Hillary Clinton did not win is because women are jealous of her. It makes me question her logic overall.

  • Not backed by actual evidence and or the reality of triple feeding

    In this episode they talk about triple feeding as if it is this horrible thing. It does not have to be. At one point she says pumping takes 45 minutes, which it doesn’t! Never should it! And then, in another part of the episode she says it takes an hour if you include washing. True triple feeding, which you do not have to do at every feeding should take an hour max. The point is to practice breastfeeding if that’s your goal, paced bottle feed and protect your milk supply. It is a temporary plan ... more

  • Love the sensory processing episode

    I just listened to the episode about Sensory processing differences with the OT butterfly! So much of it resonated with my two kids. They both have different sensory needs and hearing some examples made me more aware of those. So helpful to know when to seek more support and what strategies to use at home prior to this. Thanks for having another awesome guest on!

The Follow-Up: Parenting Without Perfection
Q: What do you see that as? Like in terms of our generation looking at success as?
Success is subjective and varies for everyone, but society promotes a narrow definition that can create unrealistic expectations.
The Follow-Up: Parenting Without Perfection
Q: Do you feel as if we lose that intuition because we're kind of comparing ourselves too much or not focusing on our own needs?
We haven't lost intuition, but we've been conditioned to suppress it due to societal pressures and comparisons.
The Follow-Up: Parenting Without Perfection
Q: What would you say is like that top reason, or one of the reasons why you feel our generation is making it harder than it needs to be?
We are hyper focused on getting it right and comparing ourselves to others, exacerbated by social media, which creates a toxic environment in parenting.
