Welcome to Parents Who Think!

the MUST SUB newsletter for… you guessed it, Parents Who Think.

What to expect from PARENTS WHO THINK:

Hello and welcome to Parents Who Think (PWT), where we don't just spark your inner fire; we unleash a brilliant beacon. Here, we obliterate the mundane and rewrite the rules on how YOU tackle life's opportunities and curveballs, your way.

This isn't just another parenting Substack; it's a full-on rebellion against the status quo. We're here to shake up the lukewarm chatter on parent identity and all those hot-button parenting issues that make us squirm.

What does it mean to be a Parent who Thinks?

It’s different for everyone, but you’ll know if you are one. When I coined PWT, I was knee-deep thinking about my ten kids at 3am, when the house was quiet and my mind was loud. Endless ruminating, wondering, decision-making and flip-flopping.

And it’s not just about the kids - it’s also figuring out the kind of parent I want to be, or the one I seem to be becoming.

Join me in the beautiful chaos of parenting - the unpredictable, half-baked, no-agreement-necessary journey where finding your own path is the only goal. Expect raw, real and perfectly imperfect content - this is the unfiltered journey of being a Parent who Thinks. It would be lovely to share the ride!

Reminder: we're not just raising kids; we're sculpting the future. This isn't just about their happiness and stability. This is about the seismic shifts we're creating in the world.

When you subscribe, you access THREE powerful areas:

1️⃣ A front-row seat to the popular PARENT DEBATE PODCAST of the same name. We go all-in on gritty, taboo topics you’d never discuss openly but can’t wait to hear other parents tackle. This is where we slice through niceties and get down to the real vulnerable stuff.

2️⃣ And that’s not all. I’m rolling out an interview series called PARENTS THAT WRITE which declares, "Guess what? Life doesn’t end when you’re a parent” because YES YOU CAN chase dreams, write books, get published, and conquer change the world through words and art - all while raising kids. 

3️⃣ And last but definitely not least, let’s not forget the NOISE SERIES, muse-driven occasional essays from yours truthfully. Think of them as your magic tonic, ready to fuel your mind with fresh perspectives and daring ideas.

Really, there are zero reasons to not join, so what are you waiting for?!

GET TO KNOW ME HERE: Listen to My Story in Stats:

This podcast is a one-off, a bit like Danusia. I thought I might not take to her because I thought she’d turn out to be one of those smug Supermothers with a tribe of kids. This podcast shines the light into both her business and at-home life and she’s become an inspiration to us all. What I know now is that she’s a grafter and that business success while raising kids is a tough yet possible gig. I can’t rank her high enough LISTNER MRSDEV000
