How quickly does your big kid's hard day become your hard day too? You want to be the mom who listens calmly. You know you can't fix every hard thing anymore. But when your big kid is struggling, your mind starts racing, your chest tightens, and suddenly you're searching for the right words, the right solution, or some sign that everything will be okay. In this episode, I'm talking about why letting go can feel so impossible when parenting teens and navigating the empty nest years... and why it doesn't mean you're too attached or doing motherhood wrong. You'll learn how to love your child through a difficult season without absorbing all of their pain, how to stop overthinking every mood or text, and how to stay grounded even when you don't know how things will turn out.

Full show notes here: https://sociallyausome.com/post/i-wasnt-ashamed-of-my-adhd-i-was-confused-by-it-ep-216/Last week I promised I'd say something on this show I've never said out loud. Especially not live. So here it is.For years I didn't tell people I have ADHD, and everybody assumes that means shame. Part of that's true. But the bigger reason was this: I didn't think anybody would believe me.How do you say out loud that you built a six-figure business, spoke on a TEDx stage, and also have no idea where the water bottle you filled up forty minutes ago went? It sounds made up. So I said nothing for years and called it privacy.In this episode, I walk through the three walls that kept me quiet, and wall three is one I've genuinely never admitted publicly.In this episode:(00:00) The thing I've never said out loud(01:30) Wall one — everyone pictures a bouncing eight-year-old boy(04:15) Wall two — why the ADHD contradiction makes you sound like you're lying(05:00) Why ADHD pattern recognition points outward but never inward(07:15) No, we don't hate structure — we can't reliably build it(08:00) Why "everyone's a little ADHD" is not a compliment(09:30) Wall three — the one I've never admitted(13:00) What actually changed: I stopped asking one side of my brain to disappearYour one action: pick the wall you're standing behind and name it out loud. Then DM me on Instagram @socially.ausome and tell me which one is yours... wall three especially, because I've never heard anyone else say that one.Resources mentioned:

Being ashamed of the gospel is rarely about the gospel itself. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar examine why believers often shrink back from boldly identifying with Christ and how the fear of man quietly competes for the worship that belongs to God alone. The guys explain that shame is often rooted in idolatry, whether it is the desire for approval, the pursuit of success, or the fearof rejection. When acceptance from others takes the throne of the heart, faithfulness to Christ becomes increasingly difficult. Yet the gospel frees believers from living for the opinions of man and calls them to treasure Christ above every earthly idol.The guys emphasize that the world has always opposed God's truth, yet believers are still called to proclaim the gospel with compassion and courage. They reflect on faithful examples of Christians who patiently shared the gospel for years, reminding listeners that salvation belongs to the Lord and that no one is beyond His reach. Rather than letting fear silence them, believers are called to love people enough to speak the truth, trusting God to accomplish the work only He can do. Evangelism becomes an act of worship, flowing from gratitude for the grace believers have already received.The guys also discuss how believers overcome shame by fixing their eyes on Christ rather than on themselves. When idols are removed from the heart and replaced with a greater affection for God, the fear of people begins to lose its grip. They explain that remembering the gospel, meditating on eternity, and growing in love for Christ naturally produce boldness. Just as the disciples counted it an honor to suffer for the name of Jesus, Christians today are called to see opposition as an opportunity to identify with their Savior. The more believers treasure Christ, the less intimidating the world's opinions become.Finally, the guys offer practical encouragement to grow in confidence while sharing the gospel. Boldness develops through faithful obedience, regular study of Scripture, prayer, and consistent conversations with others. They encourage listeners not to wait until they have all the answers but to trust that God equips those who step forward faithfully. Even when believers struggle with fear or shame, Christ welcomes them with mercy and grace rather than condemnation. Ultimately, the guys remind listeners that the gospel is God's power for salvation, Christ is worthy of wholehearted devotion, and there is no greater privilege than making Him known to a world that desperately needs Him.Send us Fan MailThanks for listening!

What happens when helping your big kid starts to feel expected... and not in a good way? In this episode, I'm exploring the resentment that can build when we moms keeps saying yes, rearranging our lives, solving problems, and showing up…while wondering whether our big kid notices or appreciates any of it. If this sounds familiar, the real issue may not be how much you're doing, but what's driving your choices. You'll learn how to tell the difference between giving from genuine desire and giving from guilt, obligation, or the hope that your child will finally appreciate you. We'll also look at how your mindset can turn one forgotten thank-you into evidence that you've failed at motherhood. Whether you're parenting teens or navigating the empty nest years, this episode will help you stop overthinking every yes and no... and begin choosing from confidence, peace, and intention.

Episode Synopsis:Paul is eager to come to Rome to preach the gospel.  These words have long been familiar to Christians, and we understand Paul's sentiment.  Yet, in Paul's day, preaching the gospel was an absolutely scandalous message.  The gospel is centered on the cross of Jesus Christ.  For us, a cross is a well-known Christian symbol.  But for those in Paul's day, the cross was a sign of shame and denigration.  It was something people abhorred and would not speak about.  The noted Roman statesman and orator Cicero spoke of the cross as so horrible that Roman citizens should never be subject to such a thing, and should never even entertain the thought of such a horrible manner of death, much less speak of it.  So why would Paul be eager to preach such a message if it was likely to repulse and offend people, rather than draw or attract them?Paul knows that this gospel—centered in the cross of Jesus Christ—is the power of God for the salvation of all who believe.  God uses this scandalous message to call his people unto himself, create faith, and grant them eternal life.  As Paul tells the Romans, the gospel was first preached to Jews in the types and shadows of the Old Testament, and then through recounting the events associated with the messianic mission of Jesus Christ, which culminated in his suffering and death upon a Roman cross.  When the crucified Jesus was raised from the dead three days after his crucifixion, God demonstrated his power—which is of a different kind and far greater than all the military might of Rome.  Jesus is truly Lord—not Caesar nor any of the Roman gods.  So, when Paul says he desires to come to Rome to preach this message, he is trusting the power of God to do what is impossible for sinful humans: to be given new life, the forgiveness of sins, and to be counted as righteous before God.Paul is also eager to preach the gospel because in it the righteousness of God is revealed.  Sinful men and women can be reckoned or credited as righteous by trusting in the crucified and risen Savior proclaimed by Paul.  No amount of sorrow or tears, no enlightened teacher or guru, and no amount of good works can grant this righteous status to sinful people.  The only proper response to Paul's gospel is the empty hands of faith—the reception of this free gift of a perfect and faultless righteousness that is found in the gospel.  This is why Paul is eager to come to Rome and preach this scandalous message.For show notes and other recommended materials located at the Riddleblog as mentioned during the Blessed Hope Podcast, click here:  https://www.kimriddlebarger.com/

Do you ever wonder what the difficult moments with your teen or adult kid says about the kind of mom you are? When your big kid pulls away, shuts you out, or struggles, it's so easy to believe you're somehow getting motherhood wrong. In this episode, I unpack why these thoughts feel so convincing, and why they aren't the truth. I'll help you understand the difference between feeling helpless and feeling hopeless, how your mindset can fuel anxiety and stop overthinking, and what it really means to practice letting go without caring any less. If you're navigating the empty nest years or parenting teens, this conversation will help you release unnecessary guilt, show up with more confidence, and discover a steadier way to love your child while also taking care of yourself.

Have you ever caught yourself thinking, I should be happier than this... and then wondered why you still feel disconnected from your own life? In this episode, I'm unpacking why so many moms reach a season where they no longer feel like themselves... even when, on paper, life looks just fine. During the parenting teens and empty nest years, it's easy to spend so much energy caring for everyone else that you lose sight of what you need. I'll use Maslow's hierarchy of needs to help you identify what's really missing beneath that vague feeling of "meh" and show you how to stop chasing the wrong solutions. If you've been feeling anxious, stuck, or unsure who you are beyond motherhood, this conversation will help you reconnect with yourself, stop overthinking, and begin letting go with greater peace, purpose, and confidence.

As America prepares to celebrate its 250th birthday, Todd examines a striking Gallup poll showing a dramatic partisan divide in national pride. Why do so many Democrats say they are not proud to be Americans while Republicans overwhelmingly express gratitude for the nation? Todd explores the difference between biblical pride and patriotic gratitude, discusses the dangers of virtue signaling, reflects on America's unique role in advancing liberty and opportunity, and responds to a CNN segment featuring Harry Enten highlighting the polling data. Plus, Todd encourages listeners to celebrate Independence Day with thankfulness for the freedoms and blessings that make America a shining city on a hill.

Matt and Michael dive into America's 250th birthday and ask why we're so reluctant to celebrate it. They explore how patriotism became politically coded, the strange guilt of prosperity, and why the founders' vision of property rights and freedom of speech created unprecedented human flourishing. The conversation spirals through the Dunning-Kruger effect, democracy as truth-discovery, and the Orwellian rewriting of history. They touch on the intolerance of tolerance, what it means to hold two truths at once, and Michael's grandfather's immigrant story of escaping the mines through sheer will. The episode lands on a hard truth. If you stop celebrating what's good, you shouldn't be surprised when you get less of it. Cheers y'all

Have you ever caught yourself waiting for your child's success to finally prove you did motherhood "right"? In this episode, I'm exploring a belief so many moms carry without even realizing it: I'll know I'm a good mom when... my teen makes better choices, my college student is thriving, or my child finally seems happy. It feels like love...but what if it's actually keeping you trapped in anxiety and overthinking every decision you've made? I'll show you why tying your worth to your child's outcomes leaves you feeling powerless, how this mindset quietly shapes your parenting, and what it looks like to separate your identity from their journey. If you're navigating parenting teens, the empty nest, or simply learning the art of letting go, this conversation will help you find more peace, confidence, and freedom in motherhood.

It would be safe to say that undercover Christians do little or nothing to accomplish anything in this world for the cause of Christ. Only those who are bold and unashamed really make a statement to the world that Jesus is for real.

Ramit Sethi of I Will Teach You To Be Rich talks to Maria and Andre, a married couple in their 50s navigating a difficult retirement gap. Maria has built nearly $500K in net worth, a strong pension, and a clear path toward retirement. Andre, who moved from Brazil and only recently received his green card, is rebuilding his career in the United States with just $16K saved for retirement. They earn around $187K a year combined, but their financial tension is not really about the numbers. Andre feels ashamed that Maria earns twice what he does, while Maria worries that she will have to carry their future alone. Ramit helps them unpack the pressure Andre feels to be the provider, the cultural beliefs shaping their relationship, and how they can build a retirement plan that gives them more time together not less. In this episode we uncover: • Why Andre feels ashamed that Maria earns twice as much as him • How Andre's recent green card changed his ability to build a career • Why $16K in retirement savings feels so frightening at age 50 • Why Maria's pension could transform their retirement future • Why Andre believes a man should earn more than his wife • How their finances are combined, but still feel separate • Why Andre's business expenses are creating confusion and resentment • The hidden cost of working six days a week • Why Maria wants more time with Andre, not just more money • Why Andre keeps defaulting to “work harder” instead of building a plan • How Ramit reframes retirement from fear into options • Why their future may be much stronger than they realize • The importance of acting like a team rather than competing with each other • How Andre could double his income after getting his HVAC licence • Why their Rich Life includes time in Brazil, leisure, and being present together Chapters: (00:00:00) “What would you do if your partner had no retirement plan?” (00:00:48) Meet Maria and Andre (00:02:12) Andre's career, green card, and starting over (00:03:32) Andre has just $16K saved for retirement (00:04:48) Building their Conscious Spending Plan (00:05:54) Their $496K net worth revealed (00:07:35) “She makes double what I make” (00:10:11) How Maria increased her income as a teacher (00:12:05) Learning to spend consciously (00:14:16) Maria wants Andre to have a retirement plan (00:20:03) Their fixed costs and uneven financial burden (00:25:43) How long their savings would last (00:29:20) The reality of rebuilding your life in a new country (00:39:43) Andre's childhood beliefs about work and money (00:45:17) What if Andre never earns as much as Maria?

Have you ever found yourself standing outside your teen's bedroom door, wondering whether to knock or walk away? Or lying awake at night questioning whether you're helping too much, not helping enough, or somehow getting it all wrong? In this episode, I'm exploring the tension so many of us moms face as we parent teens and navigate the empty nest: knowing when to step in and when to let go. When your child seems withdrawn, unmotivated, or not quite themselves, how do you respond without letting fear make the decision for you? I'll unpack why this struggle isn't really about finding the perfect parenting strategy. It's about understanding the mindset driving your worry, self-doubt, and urge to control the outcome. I'll show you how to separate facts from fear, stop overthinking, and make decisions with greater confidence.

Mastering the Daily Mood Log Small Details, Life-Changing Results Episode Summary The Daily Mood Log might seem simple—even boring—but its impact can be profound. In this episode, David and Kevin break down how to use this powerful CBT tool effectively, highlighting the most common mistakes people make and how to avoid them. They explain why focusing on a single specific moment is the key to emotional transformation, how to accurately identify feelings, and how to uncover the exact thoughts driving distress. This practical deep dive shows how small shifts in technique can lead to dramatic improvements in mood, confidence, and even what David calls "enlightenment." Step 1: Upsetting Event / Moment Identify one specific moment in time (not a general problem). Include details: Where were you? Who was there? What exactly happened? Common Mistakes: ❌ Being too vague: "My life is a mess" ❌ Writing thoughts instead of events: "I'm not good enough" ❌ Describing ongoing situations instead of a moment Example: ✔️ "At 3pm today, my boss criticized my report in a meeting." Step 2: Emotions Circle or list all emotions you felt Rate each from 0–100% intensity Examples: Sad / Down – 60% Anxious / Nervous – 70% Ashamed – 50% Common Mistakes: ❌ Skipping this step ❌ Not rating intensity ❌ Thinking feelings can't be measured Why It Matters: Helps track progress Improves emotional awareness Increases accuracy and empathy Step 3: Negative Thoughts Write short, specific thoughts (1 sentence each) Focus on what you were telling yourself Examples: "I'm a failure." "There's something wrong with me." "I'll never succeed." Common Mistakes: ❌ Writing long paragraphs ❌ Including events ("She rejected me") ❌ Including feelings ("I feel terrible") ❌ Writing questions ("Why am I like this?" → convert to statement) Tip: Work through emotions one at a time: "What thought caused my sadness?" "What thought caused my anxiety?" Step 4: Positive Thoughts Generate thoughts that: ✅ Are 100% true ✅ Reduce belief in the negative thought Examples: "I made a mistake in that meeting, but that doesn't define my entire ability." "One criticism doesn't mean I'm a failure." Common Mistakes: ❌ Cheerleading ("I'm awesome no matter what") ❌ Irrelevant truths ("At least I can cook") ❌ Statements you don't fully believe Key Insight: Truth alone isn't enough—it must directly challenge the negative belief. Step 5: Re-evaluate Belief in Negative Thought After generating positive thoughts, re-rate how much you believe the original thought Example: "I'm a failure" Before: 90% After: 0% Goal: Reduce belief as much as possible (ideally close to 0%) Why It Matters: Emotional change happens when belief in negative thoughts decreases The greater the reduction, the greater the relief Core Principle Change one moment → understand the pattern → apply it everywhere. Memorable Quotes "We're not fishing for small improvements—we're going after the big fish." "I can't help you with your whole life, but I can help you with one moment." "The truth—not positive thinking—is what sets you free." "Without measuring feelings, therapists are mostly guessing."
