For anyone who has been parented, is a parent or dreams of being a parent, Parent Footprint with Dr. Dan teaches us all how to make the world a more loving, accepting and compassionate place -- one parent, one person and one child at a time. Every episode features a “Sitting Down with Dr. Dan” segment to help listeners discover ways to be the best version of themselves. With more than 25 years of experience as a psychologist, author and father, Dr. Dan Peters understands the key to raising happy and aware kids is for parents to seek the same joy and mindfulness in their own lives. Through diverse and timely discussions, every episode of Parent Footprint explores and explains how (and why) the way we were parented impacts the way we parent. Aimed at any parental figure in a child's life, Dr. Dan helps any caregiver lead with purpose.

With over 200 episodes, Dr. Dan has hosted adolescent and child development experts, mental health professionals and of course, parents. Plus, he takes listener questions! Submit yours to [email protected] and you may get an answer on a future episode.
