To be honest, I don’t have much of a capacity for reading at this time in my life (although I was able to finish one this month.) I’m just too exhausted at night to read more than a page or two. When will I be able to sleep again? Apps like Audible, Apple, and Spotify Podcasts, on the other hand, have been lifesavers! Some of Best Parenting Podcasts We Turn to for Guidance, Advice, and Relatable Insight.
This isn’t confined to the toddler years, believe me. Most of us, from babies to young adults, are looking for parenting advice, philosophies, tactics, and anything else that may help us get ahead—after all, we’re all trying to figure it out together! So, earlier this year, I asked my circle of parents to share their favorite parenting podcasts that they listen to on a regular basis. There were so many ideas, and I was eager to hear as many as possible.
Even if I only get 20 minutes of information, I’ve discovered that it’s simpler to put on headphones while doing the laundry or cleaning up dinner, even if I only get 20 minutes of information.
Best Parenting Podcasts We Turn to for Guidance, Advice, and Relatable Insight
Continue reading to learn about some of the Best Parenting I listen to on a regular basis. Take what you like and leave what you don’t, as with anything I share.
Good Inside
Dr. Becky is one of the best parenting podcasts, which I discovered on Instagram. She started a pandemic, providing sanity to parents who were trying to figure out what to do with all of their free time at home. And she uses her platform and podcast as a clinical psychologist to provide you ways to embody your authority and strengthen your parent-child relationship. She gives you the scripts on how to track behavior, set limits, and assist your child in self-regulate, from power struggles to tantrums.
Raising Good Humans
This was highly recommended by numerous of my mother’s organizations. Dr. Aliza Pressman is a developmental psychologist, parent educator, assistant clinical professor, and co-founder of Mount Sinai Parenting Center and Seedlings Group.
Evolutionary Parenting
All of Tracy Cassels’s discussions are based on research-based evidence from developmental psychology, biology, anthropology, and evolution. She discusses everything from sleep training (of all kinds), educational methods, breastfeeding, and much more.
Parenting After Trauma
If you’re into counseling and healing like I am, you’ll enjoy this podcast. Robyn Gobbel is a writer, trainer, speaker, and educator who is passionate about figuring out why people act the way they do. She equips parents with the knowledge and skills they need to respond to their children’s behavior while also healing the trauma.
Peds Doc Talk
Dr. Mona is a physician and mother who combine evidence and experience-based research to answer burning questions about the first year of a child’s life. People call in with their questions, and she attempts to answer as many as she can in each episode.
Rose and Rosie are YouTube sensations who have branched out into podcasting. They’re a comedy pair with British accents who are also a same-sex relationship. If you ask me, I’d give it an A+! They go over everything from sperm donation to IVF, adoption, and birth. This podcast is one of my favorites because it tackles challenging topics with a sense of humor.
Talking to Teens
This podcast contains expert interviews and discussions about teen issues. Teens, I believe, are frequently left out of the parenting debate, and this stage may be just as difficult as the toddler stage. Anxiety, puberty, and college admissions are all addressed in Talking to Teens.
Respectfully Parenting
No Bad Kids and Elevating Childcare are two books by Janet Lansbury. You may recall her as an actress or from Seventeen magazine. At Magda Gerber, she works on the RIE non-profit organization’s beliefs. Her work educates, motivates, and supports newborn and toddler caregivers all across the world.
Their Own Devices
I thought it was important to include this podcast in my round-up because we’re among the first parents to navigate parenting with technology. Marc Groman, an Obama White House tech and privacy consultant, and David Reitman, an adolescent medicine specialist, co-wrote Their Own Technology, which tackles the difficulty of parenting adolescents and teens around… you guessed it, devices.
Tilt Parenting
I’m not a big fan of labels because it makes me feel like everything is gliding from one end of the spectrum to the other. This podcast speaks with parents who are parenting children who are on either end of the spectrum, as well as parents who are raising children who are differently wired (giftedness, ADHD, autism, 2e, learning differences, sensory processing issues, anxiety, and more).
Just say this
It is the most awkward talk you’ll have with your kids as a parent doesn’t have to be. I’m referring to the well-known “birds and bees” debate. Amy Lang, the host, gives you scripts to use when talking to your children about sex and everything related to it.
This is an adult-oriented podcast. Amy is laid-back and may use a few curse words, as well as discuss adult sex. She tells you what age she’s using the script on and offers you the ability to adjust it to fit your family’s needs. What I took up from this is that if you take it one step at a time, age by age, it will be less awkward by the time your children are having sex.
