Reflective Parenting by Curious Neuron
A parenting podcast that doesn't tell you HOW to parent your own child. We teach you how to think during parenting challenges and help you build emotional intelligence skills to lower your stress and help you cope with those challenging emotions that come with parenting.
Neuroscientist, Dr. Cindy Hovington can help you parent your child with confidence and feel competent by helping you understand your triggers, recognize and break your emotional patterns and teach you how to model healthy emotional coping skills for your child.
Cindy is the founder and CEO of Curious Neuron, is an internationally recognized emotional well-being resource for parents with their evidence-based educational content being consumed in over 70 countries! She is a leading thought expert in emotion regulation and parental well-being as well as an international speaker on well-being and emotional development in children.
The goal of this podcast is to help parents gain awareness of their emotional triggers, build your confidence as a parent, understand how their past influences behavioural patterns they can stuck in and help them learn how to model healthy emotional coping skills for their children. We do this by discussing the science of emotional intelligence and effective parenting practices.
Join us every Monday for conversations with leading researchers and best selling authors in parental well-being, childhood adversity, attachment, emotional development, stress management and emotion regulation skills. Past guests include Dr. Bruce Perry, Dr. Marc Brackett and best-selling authors Dr. Ramani Durvasula and Stephanie Harrison.

Hello! I just discovered you and your podcast from seeing a parenting seminar . I was a physic teacher before I had my son. And love love love this research based program. Thank you and will continue to listen during car naps of my 2 year old lol
Wow Cindy! Thank you for following your passion and your gut! It’s truly amazing to hear your story and also layer parenting with passion on top of it! I was moved by your “yelling at your soup” story. I can’t quite imagine what it would be like to have a partner that created a safe space with their presence. My experience, and so many of the experiences around me, are that the partner cannot handle how hard parenting is and a moment like that would be worsened by their presence. In your story, I assume your partner picked up on what needed to happen parenting wise and continued on with the task. Relationship goals 🩷
hi! Am I imagining that there was a podcast episode about saying goodbye to your grandparents house, or was it part of a different episode? I’m looking to share it with my mom who will be helping my Grandfather say goodbye to his home soon.
