    Good Enough Parenting with Dr Joanna Fortune

    Perfection is overrated—especially in parenting. In this thought-provoking episode, Danusia Malina-Derben sits down with Dr Joanna Fortune, child psychotherapist and author, to challenge the myths of perfect parenting and embrace being “good enough.”   Joanna shares about the concept of parental stamina—how to recharge your tank without guilt—and why your own self-care isn’t just essential but a powerful teaching tool for your kids. From playful strategies (hello, dance breaks!) to the importance of taking time-outs (for parents too!), you’ll discover practical ways to lighten the load without compromising connection.   And here’s the kicker: Joanna shares her bold take on why kids shouldn’t be the centre of the family universe. Spoiler alert: happy parents create a solid foundation for happy kids.   This episode? A guilt-free guide to doing your best, showing your kids it’s okay to make mistakes, and letting go of the pressure to be perfect. Permission to be good enough granted.   Discover more from us: • Join PWT community on Substack • Follow us on Instagram • Connect with Danusia • Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts • Advertising Inquiries here   Credits: • Hosted by Danusia Malina-Derben • Edited, Mixed + Mastered by Marie Kruz • Cover art by Anthony Oram

    Having It All & Tackling Imposter Syndrome with Caroline Flanagan
