Rick Kubina, PhD, and Madeline Jürgensen, PhD, have spent their careers studying behavior. Rick has three children of his own and now two grandchildren. Madeline has two young children. In other words, they live the research at home and teach it for a living. Each week on the Starborn Parenting Podcast, they take decades of behavior research blended with their own personal experience and turn it into tools parents can use that same night. Expect honest stories from their own parenting and grandparenting, including some that ended in frustration and tears, plus straight answers about what drives your child's behavior and how to change it without bribes or threats. They skip the jargon, disagree with each other on air, and never claim to have parenting fully figured out. Instead, they approach family life the way true scientists do: always observing, always testing, and sharing what works so other parents can benefit. New episodes drop weekly.
