Raising children means facing new and unexpected situations on an almost daily basis. As our children grow, their needs, wants, and behaviors change so fast, we don’t always know how to deal with certain situations.

That’s why listening and learning from parenting experts or more experienced parents could be a great strategy. But how to fit this into our already busy schedules?

Try parenting podcasts. They can be listened to in a car, during your morning walk or run, or even while doing household chores. No matter where you are on your parenting journey, there’s a podcast for you.

And remember to check out the Big Life Kids podcast -- the only growth mindset podcast for children!
