When it comes to potty training, our world is in chaos. Parents and carers are overwhelmed by conflicting advice and endless opinions, children are potty training later than ever before, they are suffering more with bowel and bladder problems, and disposable nappies are one of the biggest single contributors to plastic waste worldwide. In this introductory episode, Children's nurse Rebecca Mottram, host of The Go Potty™ Podcast,  explains how as a society we got into this mess, and how in this podcast she is going to get us out of it!

At the time of recording this episode, we recommended that you purchase Rebecca’s podcast companion guide for more comprehensive support. This will be available until January 2026, at which point Rebecca's second book Positively Potty will replace it as the best available potty training resource.
