About

From reading a viral Dr Becky poem on the podcast to now, we are so excited to be speaking to Dr Becky Kennedy, founder of Good Inside and clinical psychologist. She is a mum of 3, author, podcast host and renowned ‘millennial parenting whisperer’ who specialises in parenting and relationships, deeply feeling children, boundary-setting and emotional connection. We discuss…



    Deeply feeling kids and the safety of familiar movies
    Leaning into the reality of postpartum
    Changing relationship dynamics after having a baby
    What discussions can we have with our partner before having kids?
    Relationship needs and how they can change
    Spontaneity in your relationship
    Having the “most generous interpretation”
    Deeply Feeling Kids and different temperaments
