- I am ripped to shreds by a four-mouth welcoming committee every day. Thanks for being my peace.
As a parent of four mouths that bite me, I finally feel heard! This podcast tackles every relevant topic in my life with the perfect mix of humor and heart. It’s my go-to companion for the morning commute and my 'rage cleaning' sessions alike. I especially appreciate Dr. Ken’s insight into the evolution of parenting—bridging the gap between old-school methods and modern realities. Thank you for making me feel less alone in the chaos!

Your content has been excellent for helping guide us on what to do and what not to do. It’s practical, direct and packs a lot ... more
Apple Podcasts5LeAnnfromBhamUnited States2 months ago - So grateful
As a mother of four kids ranging from 7 years old to 16 years old, I am extremely grateful for the recommendation of your book just over a year ago. It has helped equip me to parent better with clear expectations and consequences. Although recreating the chart for multiple children was time-consuming, it was well worth it. After reading your book, I began listening to the podcast, which is so helpful to keep me accountable to playing “judge instead of cop” with the end goal of emancipation. Pare... more
