Good Inside with Dr. Becky

It’s Not You. It’s Perimenopause.

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 31 Mar 2026 05:30:00 +0000

Most women have heard of menopause.

Far fewer understand perimenopause — the years leading up to it, when things can start to feel… off.

Mood shifts. Brain fog. Anxiety. Sleep disruption. A sense of “I don’t recognize myself.”

In this episode, Dr. Becky sits down with OB-GYN and menopause expert Dr. Mary Claire Haver to unpack what’s actually happening in the body during perimenopause — and why so many women have been dismissed or left in the dark.

They talk about how hormonal changes impact mood, parenting, relationships, and resilience — and how understanding what’s happening internally can shift the story from “something is wrong with me” to “something is changing in my body.”

Dr. Haver’s new book, The New Perimenopause (out April 7), is part of a growing movement to bring clarity, research, and real support to this often-overlooked stage of life.
If you’ve ever felt unlike yourself and didn’t know why — this conversation will help you connect the dots.

Is It True? If I Don’t Punish, I’m Permissive (with Myleik Teele)

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 24 Mar 2026 05:30:00 +0000

Your kid is melting down in public… and you feel it:

“If I don’t shut this down, I'm a pushover. My kid will walk all over me."

In this first episode of our new Is It True? series, Dr. Becky and Myleik Teele take a closer look at a belief so many parents carry, though rarely question:

If I don’t punish, I'm being permissive.

Together, they unpack what’s underneath that fear, why punishment can feel so satisfying (and why it often doesn’t work), and what it actually looks like to hold boundaries without being harsh or permissive.

They also explore how this question lands differently for Black parents, where the stakes of “not listening” can feel much higher.

This is the first in a recurring format we’ll revisit, slowing down common parenting beliefs and expanding them into something sturdier, more usable, and more true.

And once you've listened, visit the Good Inside blog where Dr. Becky shares some examples of "same team leadership."

A Tween Parenting Shift for the AI Era (Introducing The In-Between Years)

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 17 Mar 2026 05:30:00 +0000

If you’re parenting right now, it can feel like the world your kids are growing up in is changing faster than you can understand it. AI. Social media. Phones. New technology showing up everywhere. And many parents are wondering the same thing: How am I supposed to guide my kids through something I barely understand myself?

Today, we're sharing a short clip from a new Good Inside podcast called The In-Between Years, hosted by clinical psychologist Dr. Sheryl Ziegler. Each week on the show, Dr. Sheryl talks with real parents about the questions that start showing up during the tween and teen years — the moments that feel confusing, scary, or totally new. In this conversation, a mom of a 9-year-old admits something many parents feel right now: AI feels like the big bad wolf and she has no idea how to talk about it with her kids. What Dr. Sheryl says next reframes the entire problem. If you have a tween or teen — or you know those years are coming — I think you’re going to love The In-Between Years.

New episodes drop every Wednesday; follow the show on Apple or Spotify so you don't miss a single one!

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 10 Mar 2026 05:30:00 +0000

What We Learn About Love Before We’re 10 (How We're Raised with Will Guidara)

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 3 Mar 2026 06:30:00 +0000

This episode is part of our new series, How We’re Raised — conversations about how the homes we grew up in shape the way we lead, love, and parent today. Dr. Becky sits down with restaurateur and author Will Guidara to explore how being deeply seen as a child shaped the way he builds culture — in restaurants and at home.Will shares what it was like growing up with a mother who became quadriplegic after brain cancer, the quiet power of full presence, and how those early experiences led him to build a career around “unreasonable hospitality” — not in pursuit of product, but in pursuit of people.Together, they talk about:

Why feeling seen matters more than being impressive
The gift — and cost — of being the person who cares for everyone
Why holding your child can matter more than fixing their problem
And how to bring more intention into your home life

When Food Feels Scary: Eating Disorders in Kids & Teens (Early Signs & What Helps)

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 24 Feb 2026 06:30:00 +0000

When food starts to feel tense, restrictive, or obsessive at home, it can send a parent into panic fast.In observation of National Eating Disorder Awareness Week, Dr. Becky sits down with Dr. Erin Parks, Chief Clinical Officer at Equip Health, to talk about eating disorders and disordered eating in kids and teens—what the early signs look like, what’s happening emotionally underneath, and how parents can respond without escalating shame or control struggles.Eating disorders affect an estimated 30 million Americans in their lifetime. They are common. They are serious. And they are not caused by “bad parenting.” In this episode, we cover:

Early warning signs of eating disorders in kids and teens (including boys)
When “healthy eating” becomes rigid or concerning
The role of perfectionism and control
How diet culture shows up in family language
What shame sounds like inside a teen’s head
How to hold boundaries around health without turning food into a power struggle
When it’s time to seek professional help

Disordered eating behaviors are not about vanity or defiance—they’re often attempts to regulate overwhelming feelings. This conversation will help you feel more oriented, more compassionate, and clearer about your role.Equip Health is a sponsor of Good Inside's new Teen podcast.

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Thu, 12 Feb 2026 06:30:00 +0000

Gymnast and two-time Olympic medalist Jordan Chiles reflects on the moments that tested her most — including the Tokyo Games, where a fall felt like failure before becoming something bigger, when she stepped to compete for Simone Biles at the last minute. Joined by her mother, Gina, Jordan shares how belief, repair, and self-talk helped her separate who she is from what she does.

A powerful conversation about identity beyond performance, stepping up when it matters most, and the parents who hold belief when their kids can’t see it themselves.

Tony Finau: Staying in the Swing

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 06:30:00 +0000

PGA Tour star Tony Finau shares how he’s learned to stay steady in a sport — and a life — built on pressure and uncertainty. Growing up with scarcity shaped his relationship to effort, discipline, and grit, lessons that continue to guide how he competes, recovers from mistakes, and shows up for his family.

Tony reflects on the moments between shots, the power of repair after things go wrong, and the quiet role his parents played in helping him build confidence without shame. A grounded conversation about composure, recovery, and what it means to keep moving forward — on the course and at home.

Few things feel more triggering than hearing that your kid is being teased or left out. If your first instinct is to “fix” the situation - text the teacher, call a parent, march up to school - you’re not alone. But as Dr. Becky and Dr. Sheryl Ziegler explain, our own wounds can make us miss what our kids need most. This episode unpacks why bullying feels so personal - and how to reset before you react.

You know how people say they “need a vacation from their vacation”? I never got it. Then I experienced summer break as a parent.

Summer parenting can feel like a full-time job - so by the time back-to-school rolls around, I find myself wondering: “Okay, when’s the real break happening?” Because honestly, the most enjoyable trips we’ve taken as a family tend to happen during long weekends and fall breaks - no pressure for picture-perfect moments, no meltdowns from the heat, and no built-up tension after weeks of constant togetherness.

My go-to for these short and sweet trips? Booking an Airbnb: There’s space for everyone to spread out, a kitchen for easy meals, and separate bedrooms that let the grown-ups stay up after the kids go down.

But you know what’s even better? While you’re away, you can list your own home on Airbnb, too! Hosting on Airbnb is simple, flexible, and gives you a little extra income to put towards your own trip (or those mounting back-to-school costs). Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.com/host.

We say it all the time at Good Inside: Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish - it’s self-sustaining. But let’s be honest: Self-care can feel impossible without reliable childcare.

That’s where Sittercity comes in. It’s a trusted platform that makes it easier to find sitters who are kind, experienced, and show up when you need them. You can read real parent reviews, connect with sitters directly, and even set up interviews, all in one spot.

Whether you’re craving a solo errand run, a date night out, or need after school support, Sittercity can give you the logistical support you need to show up for yourself. Find a sitter or nanny that’s perfect for your family at www.sittercity.com/goodinside and use code "goodinside" for 25% off the annual or quarterly premium subscription plans.

Okay, I’m not going to sugarcoat it: this school year is going to bring home some messy moments - and while we can’t avoid the hard, we don’t have to do it alone.

That’s why Good Inside gives you expert advice, practical tools, and a community that’s truly in it with you - and right now, memberships and upgrades are 20% off from September 22nd through September 30th.

Because you don’t have to get it all right - what your kid needs most is connection. And what you need most is support that sticks with you all year.

When the deep breath doesn’t work, the routine falls apart, or you wonder if you’re doing it wrong. Good Inside helps you feel sturdy in the moments that matter.

If you’ve been on the fence about joining, this is the time to do it. Go to goodinside.com to get started, some exclusions apply.

Dealing with Feelings: A Conversation With Dr. Marc Brackett

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 16 Sep 2025 05:30:00 +0000

Many of us grew up hearing, “Don’t cry, you’re fine” or “Stop overreacting!” Now, we want to raise our kids differently… but how? Dr. Becky sits down with Dr. Marc Brackett, founding director of the Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence, to talk about his powerful personal story and research. They discuss understanding emotions as data, validating kids’ feelings without overindulging them, and building emotional literacy for the whole family.

There’s always a moment - maybe two weeks into the school year - where I stop and think: “Wait, wasn’t summer just five minutes ago?”

Suddenly, we’re back in the rush of packing lunches, signing permission slips, and struggling to find a pair of matching socks every morning. That’s why I’ve started looking ahead to fall breaks now - before the long-weekend creeps up on me and feels less like a break, and more like being stuck at home for three days with three kids!

My go-to for quick getaways? Booking an Airbnb. It’s a reset that still feels like home: games and toys for the kids, a big living room for family movie nights, and even bunk beds that kids claim are “way better than our beds at home.”

Plus, do you ever think about how you can host your own home on Airbnb for another family to enjoy while you’re away? It’s a great way to earn a little extra income to put towards your own trip, school supplies, or next season’s cleats. Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.com/host.

As parents, the mental load is real—to-do lists, doctor’s appointments, sports practices, work events, birthday parties…” (pause) Should I keep going? If your family is anything like mine, it can feel like there are a thousand things to remember and your brain is running on overdrive.

Well, what if I told you there's a way to bring a little more calm and clarity to your chaotic, always-changing family schedule? Meet Skylight Calendar. It’s a central, easy-to-see touchscreen with clear colors, so everyone in your family can stay in the loop. As someone obsessed with efficiency, it almost feels like magic how seamlessly it syncs with all of the calendars you're already using—Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, and more. I truly see this tool as your partner in sharing the mental load with your kids AND partner. (No more, “Mommm, when’s my soccer game?” or “What time do I need to pick the kids up?”)

Ready to say goodbye to calendar chaos and hello to a more organized and connected family life? Right now, Skylight is offering our listeners $30 off their 15-inch Calendars. Just go to myskylight.com/BECKY. This offer expires December 31st of this year.

Dr. Becky's Carpool Q&A

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Thu, 11 Sep 2025 05:30:00 +0000

Something no one tells you about parenting? How much time you'll spend in the driver’s seat - chauffeuring your kid to school, playdates, soccer, birthday parties, you name it. That's why Dr. Becky partnered with Chomps to answer questions from parents like you about carpool. In this bonus episode, she shares how to make car rides easier and more meaningful.

You know that feeling when you're in the car, on your way to drop-off, and you're just trying to get your kid to eat one bite of their breakfast? Or when you’re on the way home from school, wishing there was a volume dial to turn down the meltdown happening in the backseat?

The back-to-school season is a lot, and moments like this are tough. That’s why I'm so excited to share that I teamed up with Chomps for a "Carpool Q&A," where I answered common questions from parents, like: What do I do when my kids fight constantly in the car? How can I help ease separation anxiety at drop off? And, what's the one song that's guaranteed to brighten the mood in my car? (I shared a personal favorite, and trust me, it's a good one....)

Because let’s be honest - car chaos is real. And when you add a hungry kid to the mix? Forget it. Chomps has got you covered on the snacks: Their meat sticks are easy to stash in backpacks or glove compartments and are a good source of protein, so you’ve got one less thing to stress about mid-commute. And Good Inside has you covered on everything else.

Should I Praise My Kid?

Praise always feels good in the moment. But does it build confidence that lasts? In today’s episode, Dr. Becky shares some surprising research on praise - and what it tells us about how to affirm our kids in more effective ways. You’ll learn exactly what to do to build your kid’s self-esteem in both high and low moments.

As soon as one of my kids sneezes, I know it’s only a matter of days before the whole house is feeling under the weather. With kids at school, they seem to bring home every sniffle and sneeze imaginable—and I’ve accepted that’s just part of parenting.

What I don’t accept anymore? The frantic 11 p.m pharmacy runs - when everyone’s already miserable and all we have is a half-used bottle of who-knows-what from who-knows-when in the pantry. Now, I make sure to stock up **ahead of time. And I always look for Mommy’s Bliss: They’ve been making safe, gentle wellness solutions, like their Organic Baby and Kids' cough syrups, for more than 25 years. That means an ingredient list you can actually understand: no high fructose corn syrup, no dyes, no artificial sweeteners, and free from the top nine allergens. Their Pain & Fever medicine is also a staple—it’s the first-ever Clean Label Project certified acetaminophen - and safe for infants.

Find Mommy’s Bliss in-store and online at major retailers. Your future self will thank you.

There’s always a moment - maybe two weeks into the school year - where I stop and think: “Wait, wasn’t summer just five minutes ago?”

A Different Take on Screen Time

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 12 Aug 2025 05:30:00 +0000

We all know too much screen time isn’t good for kids—and our instinct as parents is to protect them from it. But when fear shapes how we manage screens at home, it can quickly turn into shame the moment they pick one up.

In today’s world, where screens are woven into so much of daily life, the real challenge is to face that reality with thoughtfulness - and to make choices guided by our values, not by guilt. In this episode, Dr. Becky sits down with screen time expert Ash Brandon, EdS (@thegamereducator) to talk about the moral judgments, practical boundaries, and family-specific choices that shape our approach to screens.

When it comes to school snacks, I’ve never been the “pack my kid a portable charcuterie board” kind of parent. If you are, more power to you. I’m more of a “grab-and-go” type - I want something simple, nutritious, and easy for my kids to reach for as we’re heading out the door. That’s why I like Chomps. Their full-size meat sticks have 10 grams of protein and zero sugar. They’re filling and made from real ingredients, so it’s one less thing to think about. And if you’ve ever opened your kid’s backpack to find a half-eaten snack from who-knows-when still wrapped up in there, Chomplings are great. They’re smaller sticks (the right size to toss in a lunchbox or that little front backpack pocket) with 4 grams of protein and zero sugar.

We say it all the time at Good Inside: Taking care of yourself isn’t selfish - it’s self-sustaining. But let’s be honest: Self-care can feel impossible without reliable childcare.

Why Imaginative Play Matters (and Why It’s Okay if It Feels Hard)

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 5 Aug 2025 05:30:00 +0000

In this episode of Good Inside with Dr. Becky, we dive into the magic of imaginative play - why it’s so important for kids, and why it can feel surprisingly challenging for parents to join in.

Dr. Becky explores how pretend play nurtures curiosity, problem-solving, and emotional growth, giving children the space to wonder, dream, and practice being in the world. But she also normalizes the truth for many parents: stepping into a child’s world of imagination isn’t always easy, and that doesn’t make you a bad parent.

If you’ve ever felt guilty for not loving playtime, this episode will change the way you see both yourself and your child’s incredible capacity for imagination.

Consent Starts at Home

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 29 Jul 2025 05:30:00 +0000

Consent. It’s a word that feels loaded, emotionally charged, and deeply important. In this episode, Dr. Becky lays the groundwork for what it means to model consent in everyday parenting - helping kids build self-trust, practice setting boundaries, and know their voice matters. She offers practical language, powerful reframes, and grounded guidance for walking the line between honoring a child’s autonomy and staying steady in your role as the parent. With warmth and clarity, Dr. Becky unpacks the emotional weight consent can carry- and shows how even the smallest moments can help our kids feel safe, seen, and respected.

The DFK Story I Haven’t Told — Until Now

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 15 Jul 2025 05:30:00 +0000

In this powerful and intimate episode, Dr. Becky shares the never-before-told story behind the original Deeply Feeling Kid (DFK) - her daughter. For the first time, she opens up about what it was really like parenting a child with big emotions: the moments of connection, the moments of struggle, and the internal battles no one else could see.

With raw honesty and deep reflection, Dr. Becky explores how this personal journey challenged her, changed her, and ultimately led to the creation of one of her most impactful parenting programs.

If you’ve ever felt unsure how to show up for your DFK - you’re not alone. This episode is for you.

If your kid melts down quickly, struggles to calm, and avoids talking about feelings, you might be raising a Deeply Feeling Kid. And summer’s lack of structure and sensory overload can push everyone to the edge. Join Dr. Becky’s live DFK workshop at 12pm or 8pm EDT on Wednesday, July 16 (RSVP here). ****Can’t attend live? We’ve got you - the workshop will be recorded and available in the Good Inside member library soon.

Why Mess Feels So Triggering

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 8 Jul 2025 05:30:00 +0000

Why does a messy house feel so overwhelming? In this episode, Dr. Becky unpacks the deeper emotional roots behind why physical clutter—like the laundry pile or the half-unpacked suitcase—can feel like a personal failure instead of just “stuff.” She explores how mess stirs feelings of chaos, shame, and “not enoughness,” especially for parents carrying the invisible mental load.

You’ll hear why mess taps into childhood messages, cultural myths around “good moms,” and our very real need for control and completion. Plus: practical tools for separating self-worth from clutter, listener questions, and a powerful reminder—you are not your mess.

If you've ever felt like the state of your home says something about you, this episode is for you.

Puberty is starting earlier—and for many parents, it’s arriving before they or their kids feel ready. In this episode, Dr. Becky sits down with Dr. Sheryl Ziegler, author of The Crucial Years: Early Interventions in Education and Childcare, to unpack why puberty today looks so different for our kids than it did for us—and what caregivers can do to support them through it.

Today’s episode is brought to you by Coterie. I remember when my own kids were learning to use the potty… so many mixed emotions: pride, stress, excitement, and a lot of mess. It really is a process. That’s why I’m always looking for tools that make it feel easier. Coterie gets that. They’ve created thoughtful products that support how kids actually learn, like The Flush Wipe and The Pant. The Pant is a diaper-training pant hybrid with a stretchy, tabbed waistband for easy pull-down or diaper-style changes. It’s absorbent enough to make it the only product you need for day and night. You can pair The Pant with the new Flush Wipes. They’re soft, durable, and designed for independent wiping - made with 99% water and 5 clean ingredients, safe for sensitive skin. Plus, they're sewer and septic safe, so they disintegrate like toilet paper when flushed. Think of them like a dynamic duo, designed to grow with your kid through this process and make potty learning feel a little better for everyone. Get 20% off your first order with the code DRBECKY20.

Today’s episode is brought to you by Airbnb. Family vacations over the summer can often feel like, well, the opposite of a vacation for parents. The lack of routine, new, unfamiliar place, and sleeping in a new bed can make our kids feel out of control, which makes them act out of control. Cue: lots of meltdowns. One solution I’ve found to making summer trips actually relaxing? Airbnb. You can search for a place that’s already set up for kids with toys, nightlights, and books, so it feels a lot more like “home” than a hotel. Have you ever thought your own home could be perfect for a family visiting your area? If you’re traveling this summer, you can become an Airbnb host while you’re away. Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.com/host.

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 3 Jun 2025 05:30:00 +0000

It’s 10:00 AM. One kid’s crying over a melted popsicle, another is shouting about the remote, and you’re already wondering if it’s too soon for a second coffee. Sound familiar?

In this episode, Dr. Becky dives into the chaotic, sticky, emotionally charged season that is summer parenting—and why it often feels so much harder than we imagined. We unpack the myth of the “magical summer,” the invisible jobs no one trained you for (Camp Director, Sibling Referee, Snack Machine, anyone?), and why you're not doing it wrong… you're just doing a lot.

You’ll learn practical shifts—like how to anchor instead of fix, how to respond to snack-time meltdowns with steadiness, and why “I’m bored” isn’t a crisis but a chance to build resilience. Plus: why it’s okay to not create magic, and how presence beats perfection every time.

You’re not failing summer. You’re just parenting in it. And you deserve support that feels good inside.

Men Beyond Utility with Dr. John Delony

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 27 May 2025 05:30:00 +0000

In this episode of Good Inside, Dr. Becky talks with bestselling author and mental health expert Dr. John Delony about the utility trap — the pressure many men feel to always be useful, fix problems, and provide solutions, often at the expense of emotional connection. John shares his own experiences as a dad learning to step out of “fix-it mode” and into emotional presence, vulnerability, and attunement. If you’ve ever felt stuck in the role of provider or problem-solver, or you’re parenting with someone who is, this conversation is a powerful invitation to redefine what it really means to show up.

The Myth of the Mini-Me

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 20 May 2025 05:30:00 +0000

"My kid is nothing like me."

It’s a thought many parents have—but rarely say out loud. We all carry quiet expectations that our kids will reflect us in some way: our values, our temperament, maybe even our path.

So what happens when they don’t?

Dr. Becky sits down with Dr. Andrew Solomon, author of Far from the Tree, to explore what it brings up for us when our kids are different from us—and how acceptance and curiosity can help us grow while deepening our connection with them.

More Than Someone’s Mom with Ashley Audrain

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 13 May 2025 05:30:00 +0000

What happens when motherhood collides with disappointment, longing, and the parts of ourselves we thought we had to bury? In this raw and resonant conversation, Dr. Becky sits down with The Push and The Whispers author Ashley Audrain to explore the complicated terrain of identity, self-trust, and the forms of self-preservation we rely on to survive — and stay human — in the midst of parenting. Together, they unpack what it means to hold space for all the parts of ourselves: the ones we show, the ones we silence, and the ones still trying to be heard.

Because being a mother doesn’t erase who you are. It just makes the work of knowing — and owning — yourself that much more essential.

Maternal Instinct & Other Stories We've Inherited

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 6 May 2025 05:30:00 +0000

What if the idea of maternal instinct isn’t an inherent truth—but a cultural narrative that sets parents, especially mothers, up for self-doubt and isolation? In this episode, Dr. Becky invites us into a space of curiosity, questioning where our thoughts about parenting "naturally" come from, and why we might expect ourselves to figure it all out alone. Together with a close friend, she unpacks the quiet pressures baked into motherhood and challenges the comforting-yet-limiting binary of maternal instinct. What might parenting look like if we gave ourselves permission to learn, struggle, and seek support—just like we do in every other role?

Compassion Isn’t Dangerous

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 22 Apr 2025 05:30:00 +0000

We’ve been taught to fear compassion. That if we’re too soft, our kids will be too weak—unable to handle the “real world.” But what if that’s exactly backwards?

In this episode, Dr. Becky flips the script on one of parenting’s biggest myths: that compassion makes kids fragile. She shows how the compassion we offer our kids becomes the model for how they treat themselves—teaching them self-compassion, emotional regulation, and real resilience.

If you’ve ever worried that being too gentle means you’re doing it wrong, this episode is your permission to rethink everything—and your guide to raising emotionally sturdy, grounded kids.

That’s why I love Airbnb–I can find and book a place that feels just a little bit more like home away from home, somewhere I can come back to at the end of the day and recharge. Something else I love about Airbnb is that you can become a host while you’re away by offering your home to someone traveling to your town! Your home might be worth more than you think.

F*ck Around and Find Out Parenting

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 15 Apr 2025 05:30:00 +0000

“F*ck Around and Find Out” parenting—what even is that?! This week, Dr. Becky dives into the rise of the FAFO parenting trend. Why is this approach gaining traction in the age of gentle parenting? Is it a pushback against gentle or intensive parenting? A response to the burnout many millennial parents are feeling? Or has it always been around, just under a different name? Dr. Becky explores what makes this trend so compelling and what it might reveal about us as parents today.

Sometimes FAFO parenting comes up when our kids are in a bad place with bad behavior. If you can relate, then you won't want to miss "Why Is Everything a Battle?" Dr. Becky's Live Workshop on Power Struggles, Defiance, and Strong-Willed Kids happening on Thursday, Apr 17 from 01:30 PM - 02:45 PM EDT. RSVP here: https://bit.ly/3RqW7nU.

And trying to join a Zoom meeting from your hotel room or your in-laws' kitchen doesn’t always feel great. This is why I love Airbnb when we travel–I can find a place with plenty of room to spread out, including a desk or table for dedicated work time, making it easier to have dedicated connection time with my kids. And, if you’re thinking of traveling for spring break, consider hosting your home on Airbnb, too! It’s a great way to help offset the cost of booking one yourself while opening up your space for another family also traveling! Your home might be worth more than you think.

Three Ways to Respond to "I Hate You"

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 11 Feb 2025 06:00:00 +0000

When your kid yells “I hate you” or acts out in some other way, it’s hard enough to deal with that situation, but when you and your partner disagree on how to respond, it makes it that much harder. Parenting with a partner who is skeptical or disagrees with your approach is hard and tiring. It's also common. This week, Dr. Becky addresses the challenges of parenting with a skeptical partner and gives tools for how co-parents can learn to speak the same language.

Parenting During the LA Wildfires

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Sat, 18 Jan 2025 23:05:56 +0000

There are no adequate words to express the horror of the ongoing LA wildfires. It’s completely understandable if you feel worried, out of control, or stunned. Parenting is hard enough on a “normal” day, but in times like these—when a natural disaster adds an emotional and mental toll—it can feel almost impossible. Dr. Becky recently held a virtual event for parents affected by these wildfires - this episode is the recording of that event. Together they connect, hold space for one another, discuss ways to support your kids during this time, and explore how you can find your own strength amidst uncertainty.

Today’s episode is brought to you by Airbnb: After years of traveling together, Dr. Becky now loves staying on Airbnb so that their vacation can feel, well, more like a vacation. On a recent trip to visit family in Chicago, she found the perfect family-friendly Airbnb that had toys for her youngest, family games for all of them, and even the same book series her eldest was in the middle of reading - oh, and gave her and her husband a living room so they could have time to themselves after the kids went to bed. Talk about an all-around win. Did you also know that while you’re away, your home could be an Airbnb for another family? It’s a great way to earn some extra money to use on your family’s next vacation. Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.com/host.

You're Not The Boss of Me!

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 6 Jun 2023 05:00:00 +0000

It's time to reframe defiance. When our kids don't listen to us or are being "defiant" by doing the complete opposite of what we've asked them to do, it's important to remember that they are still good kids. They are good kids who need firm and loving boundaries, connection, and to feel a little powerful on occasion. This week, Dr. Becky chats with a mom struggling with her son's "defiant" behavior and who's looking for a way to reconnect and repair with him.

Your Body Is Not a Problem to Fix

podcast@goodinside.com (Virginia Sole-Smith) — Tue, 25 Apr 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Kids today face a near-daily onslaught of body shame from their peers, school, diet culture, the media, and even the most well-meaning parents themselves.

Clean Plate Club

podcast@goodinside.com (Dr. Becky) — Tue, 28 Mar 2023 05:00:00 +0000

Truth: Feeding small children is hard and stressful. But here's another truth: You are a good parent even if your kid is only eating crackers right now. You are a good parent even if your kid hasn't touched a vegetable in months. And you are a good parent if you are bottle feeding instead of breastfeeding. What your child eats or doesn't eat isn't an indication of your parenting. This week Dr. Becky and Megan McNamee of Feeding Littles get real and deep about feeding small children and everything it can bring up.

This is an edited version of an earlier episode.

Becoming a parent is really hard. And part of what makes it hard is the unrealistic narrative about what parenthood should feel like. In this episode, Dr. Becky has a real, say-it-how-it-is discussion about parenthood with one of her favorite new friends, Myleik Teele. While no podcast episode can single-handedly make parenthood any easier, this one will help you feel less alone in all the tricky moments that are sure to come.
