Parenting Book Rec: Good Inside

[lilac05]

I’ve been following DrBeckyatGoodInside on Instagram for awhile and love all of her advice. She now has a book out called Good Inside.

I’m not done reading it yet, but can’t recommend it highly enough. She’s very relatable, but also brilliant. It’s changing the way our family functions in wonderful ways! It’s as much reassurance that *I* am also good inside…and not a terrible parent if I don’t do XYZ.

(I’m not on the book launch team or anything, I just bought it and thought I’d share with the biggest group of moms that I know.)

Thank you! Just used my audible credit on it. Excited to start it tonight

Yes I love her! I got my H to listen to her podcast and he’s actually trying to implement things - ie not just default to yelling and taking things away.

I preordered so I have it but haven’t read it yet.

I know it’s an UO to like Glennon Doyle on the boards, but Dr Becky did 2 episodes of the You Can Do Hard Things podcast and they were great! #130 & 131 I think. I had never heard of her before. I kept pausing and rewinding on my way to work last week as it’s all very helpful to my job as a first grade special Ed teacher as well.

She’s been making the rounds doing promos! She did an Instagram Live with SharonSaysSo on Tuesday and covered some about teens/older kids. It was SO GOOD. I love her emphasis on connecting. I already did some similar things on my own, but it’s good to hear an expert recommend it. It just feels…right (good? I’m not sure)…when I use her strategies.

Thank you for the book rec! I just heard Dr. Becky on another podcast that I like (What Fresh Hell) and I really liked what she had to say. I am going to grab a copy. I want to start listening to her podcast too.

I listened to these episodes and immediately texted my best friend with "Holy shit. These Dr. Becky episodes!" because I know she listens too. My mind was blown and I loved everything she was saying. I can't wait to check out the full book.

I texted my sister and she doesn’t listen to podcasts but had seen her on social media and had already ordered the book! She got super famous super fast it seems! I’m bad at read self help books but I think I have to get this one.
