About this listen
Are you strict, relaxed… or somewhere in between? This week, we’re diving into the world of parenting styles — from Diana Baumrind’s classic four (authoritative, authoritarian, permissive, and uninvolved) to newer approaches like “lighthouse parenting.”
We explore how discipline has evolved over time, how our own upbringing shapes the way we parent, and what it looks like to blend different styles in real life. From handling backtalk to managing the everyday stress of parenting, we share the real-life challenges we’re all navigating together.
Most importantly, we talk about the power of repair: owning our mistakes, reconnecting with our kids, and remembering that parenting isn’t about perfection — it’s about intention, growth, and showing up again and again.
And as we wrap up Season 1, it feels only fitting to end on a topic that every parent is still figuring out in real time.
