We’re so excited to welcome Krysten @the_therapist_parent to the podcast! Krysten is a highly-skilled and knowledgeable child psychologist with over 20 years experience working with children and families. We really made the most of her knowledge and covered so much, including…

- Medical trauma - Can we be too lenient? - Sensory differences - Regulating emotions in both ourselves and our children - Why she doesn’t support rewards and punishment - Toileting e.g. poo - Autism - Supporting siblings …and she also answered a number of your specific listener questions!

Krysten focuses on gentle parenting but she also recognises that it’s bloody tough and it’s completely normal and ok to not have it together all the time. Every single minute of the episode is full of incredible tools, strategies and advice for real-life and relatable parenting situations specific to our community, and we just wish every parent on the planet could hear it! We feel so honoured and privileged to bring this episode to you!

This episode is sponsored by Peach & Pip, an Australian based, family operated, online toy store with one goal in mind: providing high-quality non toxic and sustainable toys for every little Pip.
