Today’s episode is brought to you by Coterie. I remember when my own kids were learning to use the potty… so many mixed emotions: pride, stress, excitement, and a lot of mess. It really is a process. That’s why I’m always looking for tools that make it feel easier. Coterie gets that. They’ve created thoughtful products that support how kids actually learn, like The Flush Wipe and The Pant. The Pant is a diaper-training pant hybrid with a stretchy, tabbed waistband for easy pull-down or diaper-style changes. It’s absorbent enough to make it the only product you need for day and night. You can pair The Pant with the new Flush Wipes. They’re soft, durable, and designed for independent wiping - made with 99% water and 5 clean ingredients, safe for sensitive skin. Plus, they're sewer and septic safe, so they disintegrate like toilet paper when flushed. Think of them like a dynamic duo, designed to grow with your kid through this process and make potty learning feel a little better for everyone. Get 20% off your first order with the code DRBECKY20.

Today’s episode is brought to you by Airbnb. Family vacations over the summer can often feel like, well, the opposite of a vacation for parents. The lack of routine, new, unfamiliar place, and sleeping in a new bed can make our kids feel out of control, which makes them act out of control. Cue: lots of meltdowns. One solution I’ve found to making summer trips actually relaxing? Airbnb. You can search for a place that’s already set up for kids with toys, nightlights, and books, so it feels a lot more like “home” than a hotel. Have you ever thought your own home could be perfect for a family visiting your area? If you’re traveling this summer, you can become an Airbnb host while you’re away. Your home might be worth more than you think. Find out how much at airbnb.com/host.
