Good Inside with Dr. Becky

Often just weeping with relief and recognition while listening here. This podcast and your work are SO NEEDED. Parenting is isolating and challenging even when you’re trying your absolute best. You give us a community and tool kit to fall back on that I literally don’t know what I would do without. Thank you Dr. Becky. Thank you thank you thank you.

First, I have to say that I absolutely love Dr. Becky. I bought her book, had a good inside membership for a period of time. I still really enjoy the podcast, but I miss the original format. It used to be 3 listener call ins with questions and she would give concise, helpful answers, followed by three takeaways. That eloquently summarized the episode. Now it’s mostly discussions with other child experts, so it’s okay, but just not what brought me here. Dr. Becky if you’re reading this, please bring it back! It was so amazing and helpful!

Who calls a mother over bearing and not soothing just because she says she’s worried about her son? This mother barely even said a word about her behaviour and gets shamed and criticized for what?

I was introduced to Dr Becky’s book last year when I was going through a very difficult time with my DFKs grade 1 transition at a new school. Even though the excruciatingly painful days are behind, hard/ugly/uncomfortable things pop up from time to time. I love that there is a podcast to keep the learning going and tools/strategies/theories top of mind. The call ins from parents are great. I’m not alone!
