Phases: A Parenting podcast Preview

Welcome to Phases

We're Courtney and Scott — a married couple diving into the messy, beautiful, ever-changing world of raising kids and growing up alongside them.

Courtney brings her PhD in educational psychology. Scott brings… questions (and experience co-hosting Syntax.fm). Together, we're exploring family psychology, human development, and parenting — judgment-free.

What to Expect

• Real conversations about child development stages, behavior, emotions, and the stuff no one warns you about
• Research-backed insights made actually useful — no textbook lectures
• Relationship & identity — how parenting changes you, your marriage, and your sense of self
• Listener questions — bring your chaos, we'll bring the context
• Zero judgment — just honest talk from two parents figuring it out in real time
