Summary
‘The voice of reason for a generation of… mums and dads’ – The Guardian
Wildly popular parenting expert Dr Becky Kennedy shares her groundbreaking approach to raising kids in a way that feels good.
Over the past several years, Dr Becky Kennedy—known to her followers as ‘Dr Becky’—has been sparking a parenting revolution. Millions of parents, tired of following advice that either doesn’t work or simply doesn’t feel good, have embraced Dr Becky’s empowering and effective approach, a model that prioritises connecting with our kids over correcting them.
From reward charts to time-outs, many popular parenting approaches are based on shaping behaviour, not raising humans. These techniques don’t build the skills kids need for life or account for their complex emotional needs. Add to that parents’ complicated relationships with their own upbringings and it’s easy to see why so many caretakers feel lost, burned out, and worried they’re failing their kids.
In Good Inside, Dr Becky shares her parenting philosophy, complete with actionable strategies, that will help parents move from uncertainty and self-blame to confidence and sturdy leadership. Offering perspective-shifting parenting principles and troubleshooting for specific scenarios—including sibling rivalry, separation anxiety, tantrums, and more—Good Inside is a comprehensive resource for a generation of parents looking for a new way to raise their kids while still setting them up for a lifetime of self-regulation, confidence, and resilience.

“Dr. Becky is profoundly changing the way we parent our kids and the way we parent ourselves. Her innovative work shows parents how to challenge inherited beliefs and behaviors and shift the paradigm of how we understand family dynamics.

"Dr. Becky teaches parents that the foundation of child-rearing is building a solid relationship with their child and offering themselves grace along the way. Captivating and timely, Good Inside is a book parents can turn to at every stage of development, from infancy to adulthood, to continue building connection with their kids." — Nedra Tawwab, New York Times bestselling author of Set Boundaries, Find Peace
"At a time when parents are sorely lacking in stamina and resources, Dr. Becky's wise words and deep insights offer a treasure trove of practical strategies and essential support. Good Inside is the book we all need right now, and the book that will continue to guide us for years to come." — Reshma Saujani, Founder of Girls Who Code and author of Pay Up
“Warning: reading this book might make you a better parent. Whether you’re struggling to get your toddler to calm down or your teenager to open up, Becky Kennedy is a fountain of wisdom. She strikes the ideal balance between affirming your best instincts and challenging you to rethink your worst reactions.” — Adam Grant, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Think Again and host of the TED podcast WorkLife
"Dr. Becky makes a solid case that self-development and child development go hand in hand, and helps readers accomplish both. Flush with useful ideas…parents will find this [book] well worth their time." — Publishers Weekly

The best book on parenting you could ask for
I absolutely loved every chapter of this book. I took a lot of notes. Dr Becky’s strategies are spot on. I am going to buy a hard copy now as I know I will be coming back to it again.

Paranting just became more interesting!
Loved it immediately! The book offers answers to the questions you have when raising kids. I think it is also suitable not only for your kids but for your relationships at all, even with yourself. I purchased the hard copy as well, definitely will use it. Thank you Dr. Becky!

Everything she says makes so much sense
One of the best books I've read on parenting. She understands kids and people in general so well. This book is full of empathy which this world needs so much. Found every word interesting, easy to understand and very useful. I will read (listen to) it again and will surely recommend to other people.

An important book for everyone, not only parents.
"Good Inside" is an excellent book about parenting, inspiring and full of concrete and practical examples. But it's more than that. Dr. Becky made me really think about my relationship with myself, how I see and talk to myself. Overall, a fascinating and enlightening book for everyone, not only parents and caregivers.

Life changing book to parenting and self love
This book is so helpful in so many ways. Very informative and really addresses real life problems faced by parents. I truly hope the knowledge and expertise in this book is applied by every parent possible. This would massively shift the behavior and psychological struggles parents, children and our future generation will face. Wish this kind of thing was taught in classrooms and parents were invited for training as well.

Game Changer.
I’ve listened to a lot of Dr Becky’s podcasts and love the advice, but I often forget everything I’ve learnt (or where I’ve left my patience) after a few weeks. I found the book really helped to cement her two things are true strategy. Highly recommend!
