She is the founder and CEO of Good Inside, a parenting movement with members in more than 100 countries that overturns a lot of conventional modern parenting advice to actually empower parents to become sturdy, confident leaders, we'll explain what that means, and raise sturdy, confident kids.

She is the author of the number one best-selling book by the same name, Good Inside, a chart-topping podcast, Good Inside with Becky, you can see the theme here, a TED Talk with nearly four million views on the power of repair, we'll discuss what that means and what it looks like, and a children's book, That's My Truck!, A Good Inside Story About Hitting. Maybe I could use that, too. You can find her online at goodinside.com and on Instagram at drbecky@goodinside.
