  • Helping a deregulated child

    I just listened to the episode on what to say when your child says “I’m stupid” etc. I learnt so much about self regulation before helping a child. I took away lots of tools and things to say. Both in moment and later at a debrief. And also some tools to help my child become more resilient and confident.

    Thank you so much. I’ll be back for more episodes.

  • Nuanced, balanced, and genuinely helpful

    This podcast has been an incredible resource for me as a parent. I’ve been a listener since day one, and over the years I’ve learned so much from the nuance and balanced conversations shared here.

    The guest interviews are consistently thoughtful and knowledgeable, and Dr. Sarah Bren is a fantastic host. She has a rare ability to hold space for guests without interrupting, while still gently guiding the conversation in a way that makes it feel nuanced, well-rounded, and genuinely interesting.

  • Grateful

    Thank you Sarah and Caity for the podcast on breath holding and for answering my question. I am so grateful! It was super comforting knowing you both have experienced it too and the information you gave has certainly helped my understanding of breath holding spells. I feel more confident now that I can support my little boy in the way he needs before during and after these spells. Thank you again!

  • Vaccines :(

    The vaccine episode does not tell the truth about vaccines and the vaccine injuries and adverse reactions that many children have. Parents, please do your own research and do not make decisions based on this episode.
