17) Pass the Mic: Why We Created Dam Parenting and Where We're Heading


Seventeen episodes in, and we are feeling more grateful than ever for this incredible international community. In this special episode of Dam Parenting, Eva and Maren take a moment to "pass the mic" back to the listeners and reflect on the journey so far. We dive into the heart of why we started this podcast: to bridge the gap for parents navigating the Netherlands without their traditional support systems and to provide a platform for expert wisdom that actually resonates with expat life.

We share our personal motivations, the biggest lessons we’ve learned from our guest experts, and—most importantly—where we are going next. This is a warm, honest, and direct conversation about the power of shared knowledge and the "village" we are building together, one episode at a time. Whether you’ve been with us since episode one or you’re just joining the community, tune in to hear how we plan to keep supporting your parenting journey in the years to come.
