Tune in for our interview with Cindy Wang Brandt of the Parenting Forward Podcast and parenting community!
In this episode we talked about:
- How Upbringing came to be.
- Why we should talk about kids on a spectrum of diversity that’s related to their sensitivity and spiritedness.
- What sensitivity and spiritedness mean.
- Why we need to accept our kids exactly as they are.
- How to simultaneously self-regulate and teach your children how to regulate themselves.
- How to navigate your resentment towards your kids’ freedom.
- How to teach your kids to be fully themselves in a world with social constructs.
- Why your most important job as a parent is to teach your kids self-awareness.
- Why we need to redefine safety as former people-pleasers.
- What consent-based parenting is and how to practice it.
- Why parenting isn’t about perfection but repairing connecting.
The Parenting Forward podcast features interviews with thought leaders from progressive faith and non-faith spaces, resources to create better practices in parenting and life with children. They believe parenting is revolutionary, that if we change the way we parent, we can change the world. Follow Cindy and her amazing work!

What is Upbringing?
We’re Hannah & Kelty of Upbringing- twins, certified parent coaches + speakers who help caregivers across the globe transcend daily conflict with their kids for sanity + social change.
Most of us had no idea what magical mindset + sensitive skill set would be required to successfully navigate daily drama with our beloved, infuriating kids... No shame in that! From meltdowns to aggression to sibling rivalry to putting down the screen or getting out the door fully dressed + on time, managing kids’ big feelings + challenging behaviors was never meant to be done solo, let alone perfectly.
We’re here to teach you creative, research-based ways to overcome daily obstacles with your sensitive + strong-willed kids, nurturing critical skills like consent, compassion, curiosity + creativity along the way. Our podcast episodes are Live, unscripted Q&As– reach out if you have a question or challenge you’d like us to discuss!
Learning to parent our kids with more connection and less control can feel radical and even impossible at first- we get it. We invite you to explore our shame-free, research-based offerings, each designed to help you heal yourself, nurture your kids + transform our collective future for the better.
Let’s Show Up + Grow Up!
