Short audio support for the hard moments with small children

You are carrying more than most people can see.

You are good at your job. You show up. You deliver.

And then you go home — or you close the laptop — and there is a completely different kind of showing up required. One that does not come with clear metrics, or recognition, or a defined end to the working day. You are doing both. And it is a lot.

A Little Space for Parents offers short audio tools — usually one to three minutes — for the moments when you are running on empty and need something that is just for you.

Not parenting advice.

Not productivity advice.

Not another thing to optimize.

Just a small moment of support, in the middle of a full life.

Worry less. Enjoy more (3 minutes).

For when you need to remember that you are doing better than you think.

This short audio tool invites you to imagine a conversation with an older version of yourself — one who has watched your children grow up, who knows how it all turned out, and who wants to tell you something.

It takes three minutes.

You can listen anywhere.

No preparation needed.

If that helped, we can send you Tea Steam - a two-minute audio tool for when you need something that is quietly, genuinely yours.

Share this with another parent

  • If this helped you it might help someone else

  • You do not need to explain it perfectly.

  • You can just say:

    • "This is a short audio thing for parents. It's not advice. It just helps when parenting feels like a lot.”

What this is

A Little Space for Parents was created by Jon Cheetham and Amy Kohut.

  • Jon is a full-time parent of two young boys, a former Cornell neuroscientist, and someone who left a senior academic career to be at home with his children. He built this from the inside of the experience.

  • Amy is an executive coach with more than 25 years of experience working with leaders under pressure — at Amazon, Cornell, and elsewhere.

  • Together, we took the tools that help people lead well under pressure, and made them usable in the middle of real life with small children.

Support, not advice.

What this is not

  • This is not a parenting method.

  • It will not tell you how to manage your children, your schedule, or your guilt.

  • It is not here to add to your load.

  • It is here for the person carrying it.

It is here to support the person doing the parenting.

A small promise

  • We are not promising transformation.

  • We are not promising calm children.

  • We are not promising that you will never lose your patience again.

  • We are offering something smaller and, we think, more honest:

    • one to three minutes to help you come back to yourself.

Sometimes that is enough to change the next moment.
