Listen Later

In this eye-opening and deeply insightful episode of Baby Steps, we sit down with Julietta Skoog, a veteran school psychologist, parent coach, and founder of Sproutable. Julietta brings over 20 years of experience, using the framework of Positive Discipline, to help parents cut through the overwhelming noise of information and truly connect with their children. She shares her personal journey as a mother of three and explains why intentionality, trust, and understanding the brain science behind behavior are the keys to raising resilient, capable, and confident humans.

What you'll hear in this episode:

  • The unexpected pregnancy craving (and what happened when her daughter was a baby!)
  • One word to describe parenthood
  • Her unexpected game-changer product for colicky babies
  • The biggest issue Julietta sees in new parents today (and why this generation is actually "more chill")
  • How to create your "parenting compass" to guide your discipline
  • Why discipline literally means 'to teach'
  • Julietta's "soapbox" take on gentle parenting and the importance of firmness/healthy limits
  • Why kids need help with co-regulation since their brains don't fully develop until their mid-twenties
