Welcome to Randi Rubenstein’s Mastermind Parenting Podcast. So, the big question is this - How do parents like us know that we aren’t messing up the biggest role of our lives, especially when we happen to have a strong-willed kiddo that is constantly pushing our buttons? We’ve all heard that kids don’t come with a manual, so how can we know for sure that we are saying the right things or that we’r... more

  • Wasted my time

    I’ve only listened to one episode but it didn’t really offer advice. It was an advertisement for her Bootcamp Course. Waste of my time.

  • Great feedback and tools and tips

    Great feedback, tools and tips to provide some better practices for your family to grow stronger and learn ways to communicate that not only honor your families values but strengthens your relationships. Love how Randi nails it when she talks about the QTIP (Quit taking it personal) and encourages us ways to connect rather than condone old patterns. These little podcasts are great for the car ride or while doing some mundane tasks. I love listening to them again and again as I learn something ne... more

  • Randi’s Approach is Spot on

    Every time I listen to Randi’s podcast, I take away something that I can implement immediately. Even when the subject matter seems like it is going to be focused on younger age kids( I have teens), Randi always tells a story or makes a connection that relates it to all ages of kids. I believe she really hears what we are saying, she understands the struggles of raising our people, and she knows how much we love them and don’t “want to mess this parenting job up” so her whole approach is buildin... more

    Such a great Podcast that offers Real actionable tools that parents can use right away AND notice a difference in their relationship with their kiddos. Randi is on a mission to help parents get real, get connected and get productive! I thoroughly enjoyed listening to the interview with Colin who spoke about college kids and managing their money. Kids are obsessed with what they can buy and the currency it will give them once they own it. The interview addressed the need to look at the balance of... more

  • Such Sage advice

    I came across Randi's podcast and listened straight through now I wait for the next episode to be released! Randi believes that strong willed children are sent to teach US, something to try to remind myself of everyday! She has great view on parenting and shares her interesting learnings from her own kids as teachable moments. Her vulnerability shows though and doesn't make you feel as if you are he only one in the world not getting it right! Thank you Randi

  • Real. Practical. Compassionate.

    Randi is the real deal in parenting expertise and advice. She's gone through the experiences and the challenges, and so she has extrarodinary empathy and compassion for parents struggling with their kids. Her advice and her tips are incredibly practical and at the same time profoundly transformative.
