Adulting is hard, especially as a relatively new adult, I often find myself caught between juviniele tendencies and being a reponsible adult. I was talking to my therapist about this struggle recently and she suggested gentle parenting myself. Just like kids there are times we don't want to clean our room, pick up after ourselfves, or do our work but as grown ups there are some things that just must be done. When you find yourself trying to get out of things, let yourself off the hook because you just don't want to, or find yourself procrastinating try parenting yourself. In today's episode I go over some parenting strategies you can use on yourself to give yourself a little nudge, and tough love when necessary, to show up and get things done.

Send us a textHow do masking, trauma bonds, and PDA affect autistic adults — and what does true healing even look like?In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April Ratchford talks with Kerie Logan, intuitive hypnotherapist, author, and consciousness guide.

Amy Dirks shares her story of Navigating the "ADULTING" process.. From Studies to Content Creation.. From Comedy to LIFE.. From Commercials to Movies.. From Purpose to Passion.. This Journey of Self-Discovery is so RELATABLE and INSPIRING.. We believe EVERYONE will be able to take something away from this conversation!!

 When we were younger, we thought adulting would mean total freedom—no rules, no curfews, and eating cake for dinner. But in this episode, we unpack what actually comes with adulthood: the responsibilities, the pressure, the mental load, and the surprise realization that not everyone around us “adults” the same way. We talk about how trauma (or lack of it) shapes our ability to manage life, why having a partner who can carry their share of the adulting load matters more than you'd expect, and what it really means to feel “prepared” for adulthood. This episode is part reflection, part therapy session, and part laugh-at-our-past-selves. Tune in and feel a little more seen in your own messy, real-life version of adulting.

Jim Carlough, seasoned executive, leadership coach, and author of Six Pillars of Effective Leadership: A Roadmap to Success, joins us for a heartfelt and eye-opening conversation about the human side of leadership. Through powerful personal stories, Jim challenges the outdated model of command-and-control and instead champions compassion, integrity, and empathy as leadership superpowers.Jim's stories span a lifetime—from defending a classmate from a bully in middle school to leading a tech team through a slow-motion sunset with unmatched transparency and care. His message is clear: real leadership isn't about ego or hierarchy. It's about consistency, self-awareness, doing the right thing when it's hard—and knowing when to lighten the mood with humor.

This Week: Sometimes research tells us something new, and sometimes it confirms what we thought we already knew. A new study from the Fordham Institute does both, showing that contrary to some popular lines of thinking, experienced teachers do in fact continue to improve their practice well into their 2nd decade of teaching. We also dive into a fascinating story about a teacher in Michigan who is teaching Adulting 101 and 102 to her students. The popular electives take on everything from personal budget and taxes, to tying a tie, to personal relationships and conflict. And this week we try to contain the updates on fascist policy violence coming out of DC to a Fascist Five: Trump withholds $6.2B in K-12 education funding, including more than $800M from CA, Trump moves to ban undocumented students from attending Head Start preschool programs, and Trump takes a temporary L as a federal judge puts a restraining order on the attempt to end birthright citizenship.

Lady! We know that not only are we living in interesting, unprecedented times but we're also just living our regular lives and sometimes life be lifin'. Life is beautiful, abundant, and generous but it can also be raggedy, harsh, and tough. As much as we love being a part of the toolkit that helps keep you uplifted, you know that we always keep it real. That's why this week Dr. Dom and Terri offer their grounded perspective about how to handle life when life is being a hot, ghetto mess.Adulting is often fun and wonderful. There are days as an adult when ice cream for breakfast is a thing because you're grown. But, for the days when the laundry is piling up, the bills are due, the internal monologue is putting you through the ringer, the deep pain within is spilling out, you're sick, or you're just tired it's easy to feel overwhelmed and like you're getting it all wrong. Fear not, Terri and Dr. Dom offer ten truth bombs to help you keep everything in perspective as you get up and figure it out – like you always do! Adulting is often described as a series of responsibilities and actions that one takes to be a functioning member of society. But, this week Dr. Dom and Terri remind you that often adulting is finding the tools to complete those mundane tasks to satisfaction when life doesn't feel good. So, grab your Cultivating H.E.R. Space latte mug (find it and more in the Cultivating H.E.R. Space shop), fill it with your favorite cozy beverage, and allow this episode to be the warm hug, kiss on the cheek, or pat on the back for getting through the patches when life feels hard. Lady, no matter what's going on keep your chin up and remember that we're rooting for you! 10 Things to Remember When Adulting Gets Ghetto1. Crying doesn't mean you're losing — It means you're releasing 2. You're not weak — you're carrying a lot right now 3. Just because you're alone doesn't mean you're not supported 4. It's okay to miss people who are no longer in your life 5. Your ancestors would be so proud of you 6. It's normal to grieve the life you thought you'd have by now 7. You are always worthy of love, even when you think you're a mess 8. You're allowed to rest, even If nothing's done 9. Your dream isn't too big — It's just being built on divine timing 10. Everything is going to be okay — even if it doesn't look like it yetQuote of the Day:"Adulting is realizing that you have to take charge of your life, even when it's hard." – Unknown  Goal Map Like a Pro WorkbookCultivating H.E.R.

This week's guest is the brilliantly charming and very British Laura Wood — author of 17 (yes, seventeen!) books including her newest adult rom-com, Let's Make a Scene. Laura is a screenwriter, novelist, unapologetic romantic, and former PhD student whose creative journey started as the ultimate procrastination project. In this episode, we dig into how a last-minute writing contest entry changed her entire life, the difference between writing for adults and young readers, and why procrastination might just be a secret creative superpower. Laura opens up about her writing process (spoiler: she's a speed demon), her love of dual timelines, and what it really takes to create effortless, seamless storytelling. We also get into why blank pages are terrifying, how she structures her novels like a mad genius, and how therapy — both real and fictional — shapes her characters. This conversation is part author confessional, part comedy, and part creative masterclass. Also, someone please get Laura to Costa Rica. Connect with Laura:

Alan reflects on the importance of maintenance, both in car care and dental practices. He discusses the parallels between regular car maintenance and consistent dental care, emphasizing the benefits of methodical upkeep to avoid surprises and extend longevity. Dr. Mead proposes using AI to create comprehensive dental maintenance reports for patients, akin to car service records, to improve recall practices and patient engagement. The point is that car owners and patients can actually take pride in being responsible for themselves. Key takeaways: Embrace the "Adulting" Mindset: Just as regular car maintenance is a sign of responsible adulthood, so is consistent dental care. Patients who come in for regular recalls are already in a mindset to take care of their health, making them more receptive to your recommendations. Improve Your Communication: Car dealerships often provide a detailed report of what was checked, what was done, and what might need attention in the future. Dentists can adopt a similar strategy by providing patients with a clear, concise summary of their visit, including visual aids like intraoral photos, to reinforce the value of the appointment. Plant Seeds for Future Treatment: Use the recall appointment to educate patients about potential future needs. Mentioning a tooth that might need a crown down the line plants a seed, so when the time comes for treatment, the patient is already prepared and understands the necessity.
