    I absolutely love Brandi’s podcast because of her energy and the amazing information she shares with her listeners. It is a podcast that not only empowers, but makes you feel heard. So much of her advice is things that I tell my own clients. Sharing!!

  • Wow

    As a guy who’s completely fascinated with my Wifes pregnancy and the cosmos of everything that is coming with it, I have been listening and searching through a multitude of podcasts to listen to on my commutes and down time. I’ve found some great ones but this is by far my favorite!

    The pace and tone you speak with is so easy to stay engaged with ( adult living with ADHD ) which is huuuuuge for me because I love learning but it’s difficult to remain in one space at times.

    You’re so informati... more

  • LOVE LOVE LOVE, THANK YOU!

    I’m a first time mom, I have a job that requires me to work a lot of overtime and sometimes my 9 month old doesn’t sleep well… So some days I feel like I want to quit my job haha. I love your energy and a lot of the tips given clicked for me when I think about how my little Roman responds. I am super confident it’s a gut thing now that I listened to that episode and I love the reassurance given and the acknowledgment of the pressures this society makes us feel.

    I would really love to hear some... more

  • So grateful for this podcast!

    I’m two episodes in and can tell you that I’ve honestly never felt so connected listening to someone else speak about their experiences. I don’t share any of those experiences-this connection has nothing to do with this shared pathways or similar life circumstances, but is about Brandi‘s way of bringing connection to her listeners through her commitment to do better as a parent. It is truly inspiring- and I feel like I can do it too- it’s not too late to make changes and do better.

Brandi Jordan & Michael on Parenting, Marriage, Family Dynamics, and Raising Emotionally Secure Kids
Q: What was the first major parenting decision where we realized we wouldn't do things the 'normal' way?
Choosing to travel and relocate with young children, accepting non-traditional work and family arrangements, and redefining what stability means beyond a fixed place helped us create a flexible, resilient family culture.
Brandi Jordan & Michael on Parenting, Marriage, Family Dynamics, and Raising Emotionally Secure Kids
Q: And so I guess my first question for you is, we came into parenting from different backgrounds. What do you think shaped your view of family growing up?
I was raised in a religious, conservative, disciplinarian environment, which instilled strict limits and a strong sense of structure; I later recognized that love should not include violence and began rethinking what parenting could be.

Breaking the Silence on Postpartum Mood Disorders with Alexandra Evans
Q: What practical steps can partners take to support someone experiencing postpartum rage?
