I love your podcast
Hi ladies! I've been listening to you for a year now here in the Philippines. I love your podcast and have listened to all your episodes! I have 2 teens and I have been learning a lot from you! Love lots!
May have saved my relationship with my tween..
I found this podcast at just the right time in the early stages of tween/girl mom dysfunction. It gave me the perspective change I needed… she’s right where she’s supposed to be! Thank you.
Thank you so much!!!
I started listening to your podcasts last year. Now I'm going back to the beginning to hear all the episodes I missed! Your ideas are really helping me to be a better parent to our 3 teen boys. Thank you so much!!! Cathy
Fantastic podcast!
Such helpful tips and ideas to help us support our teens. Thank you both. Xx
Finding a community
I absolutely loved this episode, so many great nuggets, curiosity over judgement - will apply to finding why my teenage bonus son is doing a bare minimum at school and try to build stronger relationship with him, the importance of community and that everything works out in the end. I had to leave a lovely community when girls were little and haven't found another yet. Well actually I did, yours, thank you. Wellbeingjournaling/Intagram
Thank you
I am so grateful for this podcast. Listening to Susie and Rachel reminds me I am not alone in this crazy world of parenting my tween and teenager. Their advice and ideas have certainly helped me reflect on how I parent and how I can best manage this stage of our lives. I know that listening has certainly helped my family in many ways. They really are a virtual hug, I look forward to each new episode. I have recommended them to so many friends and have found their content has facilitated lots of really helpful conversations amongst my friends who are also navigating this parenting rollercoaster. Thank you lovely ladies for sharing your experiences and caring. Tina

Loving these podcasts on raising teens. Thank you. Jean/Apple podcasts
Loved it!
Loved your first episode of 2024. Thanks! Susie's strategy for helping kids to want to go back to school is a topic I hope you discuss more in the future.
Top best podcasts.
Full of very good discussions & info easy to understand & greatly appreciate. Your experience is a treasure. We're extremely lucky you share with us. Thank you. Please keep it coming!
I love your podcasts!
This morning I used strategies you have mentioned to defuse a situation with my youngest teen who was angry over a miscommunication. Thank you! Keep going! Happy New Year from the USA! Cathy Chiang/email
Like having a chat with a friend
Hi Lovely Ladies, I really enjoyed the most recent episode. It was just like having a chat with a friend about what's been going on in life and discussing topical issues/things that we have experienced or think are important to share in parenting teens. I really appreciate and value your advice, help and support in my highs and lows as a Mum of a tween. I am looking forward to this year's episodes and how they enhance and help grow my parenting toolkit. Hugs, Rae 🙂
Amazing support
Hi, I want to thank you for your amazing support. I'm a mum to two girls, 15 and 12. Recently, I had my first-ever serious argument with my oldest, and it really got to me. I cried because I didn't expect her to talk to me like that. I went online to find help, wanting to fix things without messing up our relationship. I found your podcast, and now it's part of my Saturday routine. It made me realise we're entering a new phase, and I need to adjust how I relate to my daughter as she grows up. Thanks again for this great conversation, I appreciate that your discussions are based on research and real experience which is great.. keep it coming 🙌🏻
Extremely helpful
Just listened to one episode about self-harm and immediately followed the show. Finally, I got some really helpful tools to deal with my teen who refuses to see therapist. All other podcasts advise seeking therapist's help. If only it was that easy. Thank you for life saving tips and hope.
This is really saving me from going mad
And instead really understanding my teenage daughter more. Thank you soo much Rachel you are a star, lots of topics to choose from. I will recommend this podcast to every parent with a teenage. A very big well done.
Brilliant podcast
Brilliant podcast for those of us facing the challenges of the "teenage phase". During the most recent summer my husband and I were running out of inspiration as far as our own teenager challenges were concerned and here we have found exactly what we needed. Many relevant episodes and a great many new discoveries on lots of other relevant topics. Also available via Alexa
Invaluable for parents of teens
Such a great source of advice - I often find myself nodding along and thinking - yes, you get it! I'd recommend it to anyone parenting teens. claridge1974/Audible
Firstly, I love your podcast
On school stress: One helpful tip I use for her at school is to pin a piece of fabric with my perfume inside her jumper, so when she gets overwhelmed. It helps her calm and feel reassured.

The best I have come across
I listen to your show on Spotify. I love your approach. Thank you for guiding me through parenthood. Keep up the good work. Your podcast is the best I have come across. ❤️❤️❤️
You are providing super valuable content
I listened to one of your podcasts today. I SO love your voice. Literally, (beautiful voice) and figuratively from a content point of view, you are providing super valuable content, without judgement but the way you explain and talk together, the flow of the conversation helped me see the pros and cons of the parental decision/position and decide which could be mine
Research-led, practical advice for parents of teenagers
An invaluable resource for anyone struggling with the challenges of parenting teenagers in these rapidly changing times. Amazon customer/Audible
