Wonder of Parenting - A Brain-Science Approach to Parenting

Parenting

Wouldn’t it be great if your child came with an owner’s manual? A how-to book on how to raise your child? And if your child came with such a manual, wouldn’t it be helpful to have someone walk you through it, making that owner’s manual come alive? Michael Gurian and Tim Wright serve as your guides through what they believe is the owner’s manual for your child: Your child’s brain. While the brain doesn’t tell the whole story, it does offer a treasure trove of insights into your son or daughter. Michael and Tim each have over 30 years of experience using brain science research, best-practices, and their own experiences as dads in helping parents read, understand, and implement the gift of your child’s brain, the built-in how-to manual that will help you enjoy the wonder of parenting.

What if one book could help you see yourself more clearly as a parent?As parents, we're constantly learning.

Every week, I'll share reflections, insights from neuroscience, and practical takeaways to help you become more self-aware, manage stress more effectively, navigate conflict with greater confidence, and show up as the parent you want to be.This isn't a book summary podcast. It's an invitation to slow down as parents, think more deeply, and grow alongside your children. Because becoming a better parent isn't about consuming more information; it's about reflecting on it with me by your side. Find out which book I will be covering next month:https://curiousneuron.com/podcast/ Join the private group on Facebook:www.facebook.com/groups/reflectiveparentingpodcast/Start training your emotional awareness for FREE:https://tremendous-hustler-7333.kit.com/84371dc0b2Purchase my course The Emotionally Aware Parent.https://curiousneuron.com/reflective-parent-club/Follow us on Instagram @drcindyhovington or Facebook @curiousneuronparenting
Parents Night Out with No New Friends
Parents Night Out with No New Friends
Welcome to Parents Night Out — the comedy podcast for anyone trying to survive adulthood with their sanity (mostly) intact. Each week, Scott, Chris, Miranda, Nick, and Sarah sit down to unpack the chaos of modern life: parenting, relationships, streaming obsessions, work disasters, medical misadventures, embarrassing moments, and everything in between. What starts as a simple topic often spirals into unexpected tangents, too-honest confessions, and the kind of unfiltered conversations that only truly dysfunctional friend groups can have. Whether they’re debating the correct way to binge a show, explaining why mailing your own stool sample should count as a traumatic life event, or navigating the wild expectations of raising kids today, this cast brings a rare blend of relatable storytelling, sharp humor, and genuine warmth. With a chemistry built on years of friendship and a collective willingness to overshare, Parents Night Out is equal parts comforting and chaotic — an audio escape for anyone who’s ever thought, “I love my life… but wow, it is a lot.” If you’re a millennial parent, a pop-culture addict, a tired adult, or just someone who enjoys laughing at life’s messiest moments, you’ve found your people. New episodes weekly. Real stories. Real mistakes. Real laughs. Pull up a chair. Pour a drink. Pretend the kids are asleep. It's Parents Night Out.
