The episodes are so helpful and relatable however I don’t understand the need for all the cursing.

I love the style, tone, and realistic parenting talk! I always end an episode with something I can try at home with my kids.

Hannah and Kelty, in the most genuine way, acknowledge the struggles of parenting and provide guidance and tools to help us do the most important job as a parent: make sure our children feel loved and seen and safe. Listening to these two helps me to be a much more calm and confident mom.

Amazing! These topics are so important and I love the “Instead of saying this…” “Try something more positive such as..” 💓

Hannah and Kelty are DOPE! Their twin dynamic is super entertaining to and their neutral and accepting approach feels like therapy to me! I’m healing my own inner dialogue from a well-meaning fear-based authoritarian upbringing. I love hearing their perspective and bolstering my confidence as a...Read full review »

This podcast has been such a great help for me and my family. I found them on Instagram through their infographics and just listening to them talk so real and sincerely about parenting is such a breath of fresh air.

My kids and I were in a funk where I was annoyed and my 3 year old pushed every button and limit possible. After binge listening to Hannah & Kelty I was able to change my mindset and give my son the support he needed! We’re back to happy fun loving family! Thanks ladies!

That is what I wrote in a comment after last week’s podcast. I cry and take notes and fill up my soul bucket when I listen. This message. The gentle, real, down to earth guidance. My soul jumps up and says yes this truth is already in us and we hear ourself here and we should stay at this river...Read full review »

As an early childhood educator, sometimes I can get too focused on "fixing behaviors" instead of learning and listening and tuning into what children are trying to express with the skills they have. I love this podcast when I am struggling with my own objectives (as a parent or teacher),...Read full review »

As a parent, the most important work we do is the work we do on ourselves. Learning to regulate our emotions, stay grounded and present, not take things personally...the list goes on and on. Up until recently, I believed the most important work we do as parents was to control our kids. This is...Read full review »

Want to get useful, kind, supportive, research-backed info on how to be a better parent—the kind of parent you’d hoped to be?? Look no further. I LOVE Upbringing and recommend this podcast—and the insta lives—to all the moms in my life. ❤️
maryruthk via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/09/21
I was feeling so lost and disconnected with my oldest son and didn’t want the cycle to continue with my youngest. H + K have opened my eyes and my mind on how to re-wire my old ways of what I thought was the best for my family to understanding what is actually going to work and make us more...Read full review »

My wife sent me the “Free to Speak” episode not really expecting me to listen since I follow way too many podcasts. I was instantly hooked as a dad who really wants connection with my kids and listened to two more episodes that first day. That first episode made me feel like a fog was lifting -...Read full review »

Hannah & Kelty - thank you so much for the brilliant work that you do. A friend recommended your podcast a few months ago and it just clicked.

I love listening to this podcast! I have 3 children (4.5 years, 2 years, and 5 months). It’s Tough! Some days I just feel like I’m drowning. I’ve found other parenting resources somewhat helpful, but a little too theoretical. Hannah and Kelty are practical. They dive right in and give honest,...Read full review »

These women are basically my best friends that I don’t know in real life. Parenting in these modern times is tough, but we are so lucky to have so much more science, information, and access to parenting resources than the previous generation. Hannah and Kelty are incredibly good at researching...Read full review »
LaurenmHolton via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/21
I grew up in a split household and each parent had their way of shaming, control, and fear to manipulate the behavior of my brother and me. It felt normal, it was never abusive, and just was their parenting style. The shame I feel all the time at work, in my personal life, and in my parenting is...Read full review »
YetAnotherDuckFan via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/21
I am amazed at the wisdom/vulnerability that these women display. This has changed how I am a grandmother, a mother, and an adult, in general! With my grandkids, I have been so much more aware of my reactivity (old ways want to run me!) and I am more able to move WITH them instead of...Read full review »

Not only did these twin mamas save my sanity, they saved mine and my family’s life.

Enter Hannah and Kelty who...Read full review »

Such a joy to listen to these twin mommas. Talking real radical honesty on their quest to ‘grow up’ WITH their children. Humbling, inspiring with lots of practical advise. I’m certainly hooked!

Upbringing is GAMECHANGING! After every episode I feel refreshed. My partner and I listen separately and then discuss after. Highly recommend.

I started in September as a nanny for two very spirited and sensitive kids, aged 10 and 12, and your resources have helped me understand and navigate their big feelings and (ever plentiful) resistance so so much. I felt like a deer in headlights when I started three months ago, but I am slowly...Read full review »

I have found such solace in this podcast. I love that the suggestions are based on research and given with such warmth and compassion. I’m here to show up and grow up! The mantra of self reg to cog reg is perfect too. Parents, check this out and you won’t regret it.

I have been listening to this podcast for the past few weeks and it truly speaks to my soul.

I've been listening to everything I can about RIE parenting for two years now and nothing has made it click and resonate more than Hannah and Kelty.
