Welcome to the Guilty Parent Club podcast, with your host, Dr. Jo Mueller. In this first episode, Jo opens up about her mission to help parents shed guilt and embrace confidence in their imperfect parenting journey. With nearly 20 years of expertise in parenting and parent mental health, she combines scientific evidence with personal and professional experiences to discuss the challenges and imperfections inherent in parenting.

Dr. Jo introduces her unique 6P Keys framework, a scientifically-backed, six-step approach designed to support both parental emotional regulation and effective parenting skills. Join her to discover how the 6Ps: Perspective, Predictability, Playfulness, Power, Physical support, and even ImPerfection play a role in unlocking a calmer, more confident parenting style.

Tune in as Dr. Jo sets the stage for a series that will delve into each key, explore relevant psychological science, and provide strategies that can make parenting feel less overwhelming and more rewarding.

Join us on this journey towards being the parent you aspire to be, imperfectly perfect and connected with your child.

I'm Dr Jo Mueller, and I'm a Clinical Psychologist on a crusade to help as many parents as I can feel more confident in parenting your child in a human, imperfect way. Find out more about me and The Guilty Parent Club here.
