She tried to discipline calmly and respectfully but he jumped in, reversed her decision, and made her feel like she had no right to step in at all.The trio discusses what discipline should look like in blended homes, and how stepparents can feel confident in their role without overstepping.

The different faces of identity: Navigating sexual orientation and gender expression   Welcome back to Blended!   Today, we're talking about sexual orientation, gender identity and expression.   Discussions around these issues have been hitting the headlines more and more in recent months. And it's fair to say that many recent rulings and debates have felt like a step backward for a lot of different communities – they just want the freedom to be themselves. But there's a fundamental lack of understanding. A lot of people just don't understand what it means to have a different identity or expression. And a lack of understanding, the unfamiliar or unknown, is what often sits behind fear.   So today we're going to be opening up a conversation to encourage understanding, so we can fight that fear and create spaces that are safe and welcoming for everyone.   IN THIS EPISODE:   [01.02] Introductions to our Blended panelists.   ·       Kai – Social Scientist, President of TransFocus and speaker ·       Ross – Vice President at GLAAD Media Institute, author and speaker  ·       Kiara-Kumail – Employee at White Ribbon and actor     [04.23] The group explore sexual orientation, gender identity and gender expression and the many factors around these topics, from pronouns and labels, to authenticity and fear.   ·       Sex vs gender ·       Labels ·       Evolution of labels/identities ·       Words/identities mean different things to different people ·       ‘I am' vs ‘I identify as' ·       Asking open-ended questions ·       Creating safe spaces o   What are they? o   How do we create them? o   Language o   Infrastructure o   Support/listening ·       We're more than just our identities ·       Definitions becoming reductive ·       Problems with identity becoming politicized  ·       The growth of LGBTQIA+ ·       Pronouns ·       How we introduce ourselves    ·       The nuance of curiosity and asking questions ·       Respect ·       Fear of making a mistake ·       Being open to being corrected ·       Acknowledging, and apologizing for, mistakes ·       Making assumptions ·       Internal vs external ·       Control ·       Cultural rules ·       How gender expression relates to physical safety ·       Masculinity and femininity ·       Shifting gender expression to suit different environments ·       Belonging ·       Authenticity ·       How anti-trans sentiment also harms cisgender people     “Labels will never fully be able to capture everything, though they help people identify in certain ways. Ultimately, it's not about fully understanding everything, it's about respect and being a good human being. And labels expand and mean different things to different people. The community exists beyond a monolith, we all have different opinions – there's no one easy answer unfortunately.” Kiara-Kumail   “Sexual orientation and gender identity are not just LGBTQ things, they're something we all have. We all have a way in which we know and understand ourselves, and share it out with the world.” Ross   “There's no right or wrong… But the way we can be more expansive is to say: ‘Tell me about yourself.' It's an open-ended question, and then people can feel free to share whatever they want... Sometimes people are hesitant, because they don't know whether it's safe to share.” Kai   “If someone raises an issue, that's a big deal because it takes so much energy. Most people in the research we do, do not raise issues. About 75% have issues, but don't raise them.” Kai   “Introducing yourself is a good way to do it. Because, if you're asking, be honest: Are you asking the only visibly trans person in the room, or are you asking everybody that? Sometimes inclusion can actually be exclusionary. It's good practice not to single one person out.” Kiara-Kumail   “For trans and non-binary folks, people often misread them – we look at the exterior and jump to conclusions… They're misgendered about 70% of the time, it's on a daily basis, and that's a heavy burden to bear.” Kai     [40.44] The panel share an overview of where the US currently is with gender and sexuality issues, why many feel that we've taken a step backwards, and why it's so important to continue to talk about these issues openly and without judgement.   ·       Similarity to the persecution of gay men during the AIDs crisis in the 1980s ·       Modern radicalization of boys and men ·       Manosphere ·       Danger of discriminatory echo chambers ·       Dehumanization ·       Allyship ·       Honest, open dialogue ·       Separating fact from fiction  ·       Combined vision – weaving in women's and men's issues ·       Overlapping needs/intersectionality ·       Shared benefits ·       Trying to turn negatives into positives ·       Speed of change     “We'd previously been making quite a lot of progress, especially on trans issues and rights… Now it feels like a reversal. But I think it's a pause, to allow more people to catch up… I try to understand many different perspectives and I hear time and time again: it's too fast. So, OK – let's regroup, restart the conversation, go back, and go through the basics.” Kai   [49.40] The group discuss what organizations can do to support the LGBTQIA+ community in the current political environment.   ·       Increasing millennial and Gen Z affinity with LGBTQ community ·       Millennial and Gen Z groups are customers and employees – driving expectations ·       Support grounded in values ·       Difference between what organizations say and do (social media vs real policy) ·       Need for larger systemic change, changing norms ·       Appreciation of queer culture, not just people ·       Analysis of biases ·       Providing health insurance that covers gender affirming care ·       Organizations pulling out of Pride/removing certain stock from shelves/pulling DEI programs    ·       More inclusive parental packages, i.e. IVF and adoption ·       Support for name changes ·       Areas for active leaning, e.g. Role play   ·       Intent – the importance of trying ·       The importance of listening ·       Kai's experience of working with two-spirit first nation people ·       Trans folk are not new! o   They exist in every culture, throughout time o   Different names, e.g. ‘third gender' in India o   Trans history has been erased o   Colonialism set certain parameters for gender, expression, marriage, etc. ·       Calling in experts – and paying them! ·       Context ·       Consistency ·       Self-reflection   “In the US, despite everything we've talked about, peoples affinity with the LGBTQ community has only grown – it's tripled since 2012 when Gallop started measuring… And that growth is from Gen Z and Millennials… Which means, for companies and organizations, these are your customers, these are your employees and your future leaders.” Ross “It's going to be a smaller group, but a more effective one. Because those are the ones that want to do the deep work.” Kai “People feel neutral to positive about things like Pride merchandise… the same way they think about a sports team brand. What's the difference between wearing a rainbow t-shirt or a Vikings jersey – to a lot of people, they're the same thing.”  Ross “It's about showing up, it's about listening, and getting to know. Because when you have a depth of knowing, you can start to take more tangible action in a way that's connected with people. It's relational.” Kai   [1.14.18] The panel sum up their thoughts from today's discussion.    RESOURCES AND LINKS MENTIONED: You can connect with Kiara-Kumail, Kai and Ross over on LinkedIn.

An estimated 100 million people in the United States have some sort of “step” relationship. This could be a stepchild, a stepparent, or even a stepsibling. These relationships are often part of what's known as a “blended” family, where individuals come together from previous relationships to form a new, unique family unit.Blended families face many challenges and difficulties that other families don't necessarily have to navigate. They have to build new relationships within the parent-child and sibling dynamics that have already been established. It can feel awkward at times, and kids may even struggle with feeling like their stepparent is trying to replace or force a bond.While we don't have personal experience on this topic, our guests do—and they are here to share their wisdom with us. Paul and Jeannette Savage are a Colorado-based couple with a blended family of five adult children and five grandchildren. Together, they authored Blended: Navigating the Challenges and Joys of a Stepfamily.In this episode, you'll hear:Common challenges blended families faceThe importance of avoiding defensivenessHow to preserve the original parent-child bondAnd more!Find resources mentioned and more in the show notes: jillsavage.org/paul-jeannette-savage-252Check out our other resources: Mark and Jill's Marriage Story Marriage Coaching Marriage 2.0 Intensives Speaking Schedule Book Mark and Jill to Speak Online Courses Books Marriage Resources: Infidelity Recovery For Happy Marriages For Hurting Marriages For Marriages Where You're the Only One Wanting to Get Help Mom Resources: New/Preschool Moms Moms with Gradeschoolers Moms with Teens and Tweens Moms with Kids Who Are Launching Empty Nest...

Stell dir einmal vor, du begleitest ein Team und bist regelmäßig im Team vor Ort. Aber damit nicht genug: Zwischen euren Sitzungen haben alle Teammitglieder Zugriff auf einen Online-Kurs, den du erstellt hast. In diesem Kurs finden die Leute Übungen zur Selbstreflexion, Tutorials und Lerneinheiten, mit denen sie ihr Entwicklungsthema vertiefen. Und jetzt stell dir vor, du würdest genauso eine ganze Organisation begleiten. Ein Unternehmen, einen Betrieb oder eine Einrichtung. Zwischendurch bist du live mit den Leuten, aber zwischen euren Sitzungen könne alle auf deinen Online-Kurs zurückgreifen. Genau das ist Blended Coaching: die Mischung aus synchronem Coaching, in dem wir live mit unseren Coachees arbeiten und asynchronem Coaching – also aufgezeichneten Inhalten. In dieser Folge schauen wir uns an, was dieses Format alles zu bietet und wie es gelingen kann. Dazu habe ich in dieser Folge einen wunderbaren Interview-Partner an meiner Seite und zwar Jochen Reich. Jochen ist ausgebildeter und zertifizierter systemischer Coach und Mediator. Er begleitet Teams und Organisationen darin, das Thema Konflikte proaktiv und präventiv anzugehen. Zum Thema Feedbackkultur hat er einen längeren Organisationsentwicklungsprozess gestartet und – du kannst es dir denken – in einem Blended Coaching Format. Das heißt, Jochen gibt in der Organisation Workshops und führt mit den Beschäftigten auch Retrospektiven durch. Aber: Ein Großteil des Entwicklungsprozesses geschieht durch den Online-Kurs, den er erstellt hat und auf den alle Mitarbeitenden Zugriff haben. Im Interview erzählt uns Jochen davon, wie es zu der Entscheidung kam, ein Blended Format zu entwickeln, wie der Prozess bisher gelaufen ist und wie er den Kurs didaktisch aufgebaut hat. Lausche rein in die neue Folge und lass dich von Jochens Erfahrungsbericht inspirieren.

You don't make it to 11 years of marriage without some legitimate tests. While the idea of divorce wasn't something we entertained, we were definitely tempted to believe the thought that we'd be miserable because of all that came with our family. But, God!! Today, we can see the fruit of our efforts and the blessings on the other side of much heartache. Things are not perfect, but there is no question that our commitment to doing the right thing has made all of the difference. This moment of gratitude has allowed us to recall what we've been through, how we've overcome, and its stirred up some excitement about the things ahead! 

Today on Karl and Crew, we continued our weekly theme of Fathers in the Bible as we flipped to Exodus 18 to analyze Moses and his father-in-law, Jethro, as father-figures. We saw how Jethro provided counsel to Moses regarding his leadership, and because of the context of their relationship and who Jethro was, Moses was humble and receptive to it. Often, God places father-figures in our lives to help guide and counsel us because they may have experience or wisdom in areas we may not. We turned to the phone lines to hear about the father-figures in the lives of our listeners and how they impacted their lives. We also had Ron Deal join us to discuss the role and significance of a non-biological father figure, the step-dad. Ron is a best-selling author, licensed marriage and family therapist, podcaster, and popular conference speaker. He is also the Founder and President of Smart Stepfamilies and Director of Blended, a division of Family Life. Ron has authored several books, including “The Smart Stepdad.” Janet Parshall also joined us in analyzing the worldview of the modern woman with that of a godly woman. Janet hosts the national program, In the Market with Janet Parshall, which airs weekdays from 4-6 pm CT. She has been broadcasting from the nation’s capital for over three decades and has spoken internationally.

We saw how Jethro provided counsel to Moses regarding his leadership, and because of the context of their relationship and who Jethro was, Moses was humble and receptive to it. Often, God places father-figures in our lives to help guide and counsel us because they may have experience or wisdom in areas we may not. We turned to the phone lines to hear about the father-figures in the lives of our listeners and how they impacted their lives. We also had Ron Deal join us to discuss the role and significance of a non-biological father figure, the step-dad. Ron is a best-selling author, licensed marriage and family therapist, podcaster, and popular conference speaker. He is also the Founder and President of Smart Stepfamilies and Director of Blended, a division of Family Life. Ron has authored several books, including “The Smart Stepdad.” Janet Parshall also joined us in analyzing the worldview of the modern woman with that of a godly woman. Janet hosts the national program, In the Market with Janet Parshall, which airs weekdays from 4-6 pm CT. She has been broadcasting from the nation’s capital for over three decades and has spoken internationally.

Pride takes down families. Simple as that. It is as deceptive as it is destructive. If we were to closely examine the issues related to marriage and divorce, as well as other relational conflicts, pride wouldn't be too hard to find. Unfortunately, we all deal with it to some degree. Humility, on the other hand, is what strengthens bonds and makes way for the wisdom that we need to overcome even the most significant relationship issues.

In this episode of the Braun Performance & Rehab Podcast, Dan is joined by Ray Gorman to discuss the "blended practice model" for performance clinicians, in particular physical therapists. Dr. Ray has spent his career specializing in working within the fitness and rehab space. With a background in CrossFit since 2008 which then progressed to Physical Therapy school graduating in 2014, Ray sought out to provide the highest quality of care and education for those who seek to advocate for themselves. As a clinician, Ray worked in various outpatient orthopedic settings, Division 1 athletics, and ultimately niched himself into the functional fitness space blending his passions of strength and conditioning with physical therapy at his cash-pay practice in a gym setting. Once it became time to scale his impact, Ray shifted focus from the clinical world to the education front where he developed course curriculum, ran business operations, and began mentoring coaches and rehab professionals all over the world. Now he owns Engage Movement which helps coaches and rehab professionals build their ideal business with a unique blend of in-person and virtual offers so they can do more of the things they enjoy without sacrificing their career.
