Where Good Inside is stronger

Choose Good Inside when you want one trusted method and a lot to learn from.

Good Inside has a clear point of view. Parents can learn the same ideas through short videos, scripts, full workshops, live events, and a parent group. GiGi also gives quick answers inside that method.

That makes Good Inside a strong fit for parents who like Dr. Becky’s way of thinking and want one large place to learn, return, and meet other parents.

Good Inside’s clearest strength is one method, taught in many ways.

Where Lumi is different

Lumi learns the family, not just the topic.

Two kids can both have ADHD and need very different help. The same child may also act in a different way with a parent, grandparent, teacher, or sitter.

Lumi learns about these differences. It looks at 11 skills kids use to plan, start, focus, and finish. It uses that family picture to make one plan for one real goal.

Then Lumi checks in. You tell it what helped and what made things harder. Lumi helps you keep the useful parts and change the next step.
