What We're Still Learning About Parenting with Dr. Becky Kennedy

Have you ever looked back at a parenting moment and thought, "I could have handled that better..." (Raises both hands.) Well friends, I have good news. It's never too late to make things right with our kids. Even when they're teenagers. Even when they don't want our advice. And even when the hardest thing we can do as parents is just... shut up. This week, we're joined by one of our favorite parenting experts, Dr. Becky Kennedy, who is a TED speaker and #1 New York Times bestselling author, to talk about the parenting mistakes we can still fix and why connection matters more than getting everything right. We dive into raising kids with ADHD, understanding deeply feeling kids, and what to do when your child says they're stupid or worthless. And while these conversations are important (and sometimes emotional) Dr. Becky has a way of making us laugh through all of it while giving such good, practical advice. We also have plenty of ridiculousness this week, including Penn's adventures getting my anxiety blanket through TSA, a very spirited debate with Sam and Ann Marie about whether we should compete on Dancing with the Stars, and some big personal news! I'm officially writing a new book about being a woman with ADHD. Should we bring you along for the ride? We love to hear from you!
