Show Notes
There has never been more parenting advice, more research or more content available to us than right now. And yet parents feel more lost, more overwhelmed and more judged than ever before.
We are back with Gen Muir this week and we are asking the question nobody really wants to answer. Are we actually set up to fail?
We get into why the information overload is quietly eroding our instincts, what good enough parenting actually means and looks like in real life, and the question that all parents need to hear, what do our children actually remember? Because it turns out the answer is not what most of us are spending our energy on.
This is the permission slip modern parents desperately need. And Gen is exactly the person to give it.

Nobody tells you that the newborn experience you had with your first child will look nothing like the one that comes next. Different baby, different season of life, different version of you and sometimes, a completely different world.
You can love your child more than you have ever loved anything in your entire life and find it really, really hard at the same time. You can not want to be apart from your baby for a single second and also be desperately counting down to bedtime.
We are not tech people. We are not AI experts. We are two full time working mums who stumbled onto a few things that have genuinely changed how we manage our lives and we could not keep them to ourselves.
Quick heads up - this one gets spicy so pop your headphones in if little ears are around.
Communication is something most of us take for granted. But for so many children and families, being understood, and understanding the world around them, requires tools, support and a whole lot of patience.
