Customer Reviews
A fresh approach
Abigail has a way of framing problems in a way I never would have thought of. Her ideas for play are inspiring. It’s really fun to have Missi as part of this too.
Love it!
This podcast is simply great. The conversations are frank and funny with lots of heart. There is a ‘lightning bolt’ moment in every episode where I am presented with a novel approach to one of my own personal parenting issues, that I can implement in real time. Rather than presenting a rigorous new framework that you need to adhere to in order to get results that conform to some ‘standard of behavior’, Mimi and Abigail are presenting tweaks to your current style that allow you to blossom into the parent you want to be and the standards YOU set for YOUR family. So super recommended.
Abigail’s sixth sense
Abigail truly has a sixth sense when it comes to parenting and how to help parents and their kids navigate life’s sticky and tricky situations. I’m so glad her wisdom is being shared here and I always come away from listening to an episode with another aha moment or new lens of understanding filed away in my brain. And the combination of Abigail and Missi is perfect, together they create just the right blend of real and humorous and practical. Can’t wait to hear more!
