Have to say I love it :) I’m pregnant with my first, and I found this podcast by accident. The topic for me is a bit early to dive deep into, but I like to get prepared, and the leadership idea really resonates with me. It is now my go-to “listen while I drive to work or workout” thing. Thanks you for each episode!

I love the videos from Instagram and just started listening to the podcast. Lisa cracks me up in her no nonsense and common sense, practical parenting tips. I’m a fan!
Emily Daniel - Nashville, TN · May 2025
Found her on TikTok and have been a fan since I first saw her. Her no nonsense, non permissive, yet fun and loving approach is so refreshing after listening to all the gentle parenting coaches.
berdybaird · Apr 2025
I love listening to this podcast it changed a lot about the way I parent and it helped me enjoy my kids. Thank you for introducing me to behavior board, after understanding how to discipline the rest of the time is just spending time with my kids and connecting with them. I highly recommend this podcast.
Motherhood5 · Apr 2025
Lisa is very confident and probably a great role model and parent. Problem with the Pod is that you don’t really get advice. She gives very vague answers. Everything said is an attempt to get you to buy her course. I completely understand trying to make money but every pod is the same vague answers then “I think you need my course!”
