[Looking back and looking ahead]
b'In this short episode I reflect on where we\\u2019ve been over the past year, my plans to slow down a bit at the end of the year (as well as a super exciting project I\\u2019m working on!), and what episodes we have lined up for the new year.\\n\\n \\n\\nIn this episode I also mention something I haven\\u2019t done for a while, which is that it\\u2019s possible to donate to support the show.\\xa0\\xa0You might know that it takes 20-40 hours to do the research for each episode (although my record is about 80 hours for the show on Self-Reg, because the research was in such a mess and I had to check what I was reading with several developmental psychologists who tempered the claims of the person who created the concept of Self-Reg!).\\n\\n \\n\\nA core group of listeners (shout out to: Jacqueline B., Rebekah S., Elizabeth M., Kelsey B., Jessica S., Crystian M., Megan P., Alison O., and Cristin B.) have helped to sustain the show over the last months and years.\\n\\n \\n\\nIf the show has helped you, would you consider making a donation to support it?\\n\\n \\n\\nYou can now do this from any episode page.\\xa0\\xa0If a particular episode has given you an insight or a tool that resonated with you and/or your child, I\\u2019d be really grateful if you would make a one-time donation to acknowledge that, or consider a recurring donation to help me keep making more episodes for you.\\xa0\\xa0I know there\\u2019s always the temptation to say that \\u201ceh; I don\\u2019t have time right now and it probably doesn\\u2019t make that much of a difference and someone else will do it anyway.\\u201d\\xa0\\xa0And maybe they will, but as we all know, if everyone thinks like that then the work doesn\\u2019t get supported\\u2026.\\n\\n \\n\\nI mention in the episode that I\\u2019m writing a book!\\xa0\\xa0And the e-book will be available for a sliding scale price on this website, to help everyone who wants to read it be able to read it, no matter what their financial constraints.\\xa0\\xa0I also now make every course and membership I offer over a $100 threshold available with sliding scale pricing, and invite folks who can\\u2019t afford even the minimum price to get in touch to figure out a price that works for both of us.\\xa0\\xa0I\\u2019m doing everything I can to live my values to make my work available to as many people as possible.\\xa0\\xa0If this resonates with you, I\\u2019d be grateful if you would consider donating to support me in continuing to do this work.\\xa0\\xa0You can now donate from any episode page (including this week\\u2019s episode!).\\xa0\\xa0Just look for the Support Jen\\u2019s Work button on the right side.\\n\\n \\n\\n[accordion]\\n\\n[accordion-item title="Click here to read the full transcript"]\\n\\nJen Lumanlan\\xa0 00:02\\n\\nHi, I\'m Jen and I host the Your Parenting Mojo podcast. We all want our children to lead fulfilling lives. But it can be so hard to keep up with the latest scientific research on child development and figure out whether and how to incorporate it into our own approach to parenting. Here at Your Parenting Mojo, I do the work for you by critically examining strategies and tools related to parenting and child development that are grounded in scientific research and principles of respectful parenting. If you\'d like to be notified when new episodes are released and get a free guide called 13 reasons why your child won\'t listen to you and what to do about each one, just head over to yourparentingmojo.com/subscribe.
