Adore these two genuine humans and all the support they give. They help me be a better person and a better mum by extension.
Hi Nick & Billy, I’m a single gay man (I have a cat) who is trying to be a supportive uncle to my niece (3) and nephew (7). I didn’t have a great childhood and want the kids to have much much better. I found your podcast recently and have been binging it, it’s been revelatory. I have (hopefully) gently recommended your podcast to the parents.
How incredible that Dr Billy and Nick provide their time and this resource for everyone to access. PCP has been so incredibly helpful as I have begun to navigate parenthood. Can’t thank you guys enough.
The fact anyone can plug in and listen through this library for free is incredible. How lucky we are to have this to help guide our parenting! I am a happier, more confident and more empowered parent for listening. And no doubt my kids are reaping the benefits.
I recommend this to everyone.

Episodes consistently emphasize empathy, resilience, and real-world strategies that families can implement, while underscoring the importance of school partnerships, community resources, and caregiver self-care.
