I Think I'm Having a Panic Attack — A 10-Minute Meditation to Feel Calm Again If your heart just did something it isn't supposed to do — if you're sat there right now thinking, "I'm having a panic attack" — this episode is for you. For the next ten minutes you don't have to make anything happen, fix this feeling, or force it to go away. You just have to be here. When this feeling shows up again, Anchored is built for exactly this moment: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/anchored-panic-anxiety/id6785035669 — including a box breathing section where you can build your own breathing rhythm, in Martin's own voice, not an AI-generated one. Hosted by clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic Martin Hewlett, today's episode uses extended exhale breathing — simply making the out-breath a little longer than the in-breath, no counting required — before working through why a racing heart becomes frightening in the first place: fear draws attention, attention creates more fear, and the watching becomes its own loop. A single, fully-developed wave metaphor carries the episode's therapeutic heart — you are not the wave, you are the sea underneath it, steady long after the wave has gone. ⏱️ Time Chapters* 00:00 – Cold open: if your heart just did something it isn't supposed to do* 00:53 – Channel open & Anchored* 01:41 – Breathing: extended exhale breathing* 02:59 – The loop: why a racing heart becomes frightening* 03:41 – The wave* 04:40 – Sensory grounding* 05:22 – Today's Gentle Affirmations* 06:45 – Affirmations, second pass* 08:00 – Three Daily Caring Tips* 08:52 – Coming back, stretch and open your eyes* 09:37 – Outro & be kind 

Trisha Addicks, sorority recruitment consultant, founder of It's All Greek to Me, and author of The Rush Bible: Secrets to Crush Sorority Recruitment and Find Your Forever Greek Home, joins Kate to examine what television, documentaries, and social media get right and wrong about rush, from MTV's Sorority Life to RushTok to the Max documentary Bama Rush, in which Addicks appeared. Trisha and Kate discuss how much of recruitment is built on authentic connection versus information gathered before a conversation ever happens, along with the role of résumés and social media audits, how to prepare for rush, and why its lessons in networking, first impressions, and resilience extend well beyond college.

The heart of homeschooling is relationships. Building meaningful, lasting connections is the real secret sauce of reading aloud with your kids.

How do we make time in our already full days to get outside with our kids?We've got an absolute treat for you today on the show. Ginny Yurich, the founder of the global 1000 Hours Outside movement, is here to talk about how families can bring the transformative power of nature into their everyday lives. She candidly shares her journey from indoorsy kid to overwhelmed mama to the fall afternoon that planted the seed of 1000 Hours Outside.

Growing up, many of us were taught to just stay calm and carry on - as if stress was all in the mind, with no real effect on the body. But chronic stress can change your brain, raise your risk of heart disease, and even shorten your life.  In this episode, we ask: what happens when a stress response built to last minutes never switches off? Today, Professor Carmine Pariante, one of the world's leading researchers on stress, helps us understand what's happening in your body during a stressful moment and why chronic stress disrupts sleep, appetite, and energy levels. Carmine also explains how worried you should be about cortisol, and whether "cortisol face" and "cortisol belly" are backed by evidence. By the end, you'll understand why stress can be so powerful, when it becomes harmful, and have some evidence-based ways to manage it. Next time you reach for wine, your phone, or something sweet after a hard day, ask yourself: is this helping you cope, or helping you avoid how you feel?

The Sphinx Without a Secret by Oscar Wilde — A Calming Bedtime Story for Sleep & Insomnia | Books at Bedtime A soothing bedtime story to help you drift off tonight: Oscar Wilde's quietly haunting tale The Sphinx Without a Secret, read slowly and gently for sleep, insomnia relief, and unhurried listening. This continues the Books at Bedtime strand — also known as Coffee Break for the Soul — from the Calming Anxiety podcast, a series of classic story readings designed as a calming audiobook for restless or anxious nights. For the full library, plus ambient night-light features for the small hours, download Anchored on iOS: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/anchored-panic-anxiety/id6785035669 Narrated softly by Martin Hewlett, clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic, this reading follows Lord Murchison, who confides in an old Oxford friend over dinner in Paris about a mysterious widow he has fallen for in London, a woman wrapped in secrecy who insists her letters go to a lending library rather than her own home. A slow, unhurried mystery rather than anything unsettling — ideal as a sleep story or relaxation audiobook for falling asleep, insomnia, and quieting an anxious mind before bed. First published under the title "Lady Alroy" in 1887, and later renamed The Sphinx Without a Secret by Wilde himself when it was collected in Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Other Stories in 1891, this Oscar Wilde tale is in the public domain worldwide (Wilde died in 1900); this reading is Calming Anxiety's own narration of the classic public-domain text. This episode continues the Books at Bedtime strand, alongside The Selfish Giant and The Happy Prince (also by Oscar Wilde) and classic short fiction from Katherine Mansfield, Kate Chopin, and Arthur Conan Doyle — currently working through The Hound of the Baskervilles — with new instalments added regularly to the main Calming Anxiety feed.  

You Don't Need Everything Fixed — Just Calm — Guided Meditation for Effort Fatigue & Anxiety | Coherent Breathing You're not asking for much, and you don't need every problem solved or your whole life fixed — you just want to feel calm again, even for a moment. If trying to relax has started to feel like just another task on your list, this guided meditation is for you.We'll use coherent breathing to steady the body, then a simple visualisation for the exhausting habit of trying too hard to feel okay. When this feeling shows up again, Anchored is there: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/anchored-panic-anxiety/id6785035669 Hosted by clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic Martin Hewlett, today's session uses coherent breathing — in for a count of four, out for a count of six — before reframing calm through the image of easing off an accelerator: not slamming to a stop, just lifting the foot, and noticing that the car slows on its own the moment you stop pushing. Perhaps calm isn't something to chase, but something you can simply stop getting in the way of. ⏱️ Time Chapters* 00:00 – Welcome: you just want to feel calm again* 00:47 – Breathing: coherent breathing, round one* 01:40 – Breathing, round two* 02:41 – The accelerator: easing off instead of pushing harder* 04:09 – Breathing, round three* 05:15 – Today's Gentle Affirmations* 07:56 – Three Daily Caring Tips* 08:54 – Coming back, stretch and open your eyes* 09:33 – Outro & be kind

Send us Fan MailSeason 5 is here—and we're starting with sex.More specifically, we're jumping into a debate happening in Catholic circles online:Are Catholic marriage speakers being more prescriptive about sex than the Catholic Church actually is?Recently, Catholic speakers such as Jackie Angel have received criticism for saying plainly that sexual intimacy between husband and wife should culminate in intercourse—what we refer to in our book Lovemaking as PIV. The criticism isn't simply that this language is too explicit.The deeper argument is: The Church never actually says that. You're adding your own interpretation to Church teaching. So… are we?In this season-opening episode, we begin working through that question by going directly to Humanae Vitae 11 and 12 and asking what the Church means when it teaches that every marital act must preserve both its unitive and procreative meanings. And we quickly discover that the disagreement isn't only about sex.It's also about how Catholics read Church documents, how doctrine gets pastorally communicated, how natural law works, and whether making a teaching easier to understand is the same thing as adding something to it.We talk about:Why Catholic social media is arguing about how married couples should have sexThe criticism directed toward Jackie Angel and other Catholic marriage speakersWhy we use the abbreviation PIV when discussing intercourseWhether talking explicitly about sex is inappropriate or actually necessaryThe difference between being explicit and being irreverentWhether saying marital intimacy should culminate in intercourse goes beyond Church teachingWhat Humanae Vitae 11 and 12 actually sayWhat the Church means by the unitive and procreative meanings of sexWhy every marital act must retain its relationship to procreationWhat natural law means in Catholic moral theologyWhy Church documents aren't always easy for ordinary Catholics to interpretThe difference between doctrine and pastoral applicationWhy some Catholics genuinely need someone to tell them plainly, “What does this actually mean?”Why social media makes pastoral accompaniment especially difficultWhy the unitive meaning of sex deserves just as much attention as the procreative meaningWhat it means for intimacy to be rightly ordered toward lifeWhy helping someone understand Church teaching isn't necessarily the same thing as adding to itHow couples' lived experiences should be acknowledged without changing moral truthOne of the biggest questions we raise is this: If Humanae Vitae says that every marital act must preserve both its unitive and procreative meanings, what exactly does that require of a married couple?Because simply repeating the words “unitive and procreative” doesn't necessarily tell a couple what to do. Some Catholics want the theological principle.Others are asking: Okay—but what does that actually look like?And sometimes pastoral care means someone has to be willing to say the difficult thing clearly. This episode begins a three-part conversation examining what the Catholic Church actually teaches about marital intimacy, being “open to life,” and whether the common Catholic understanding of the marital act can really be found in the Church's own documents.Chapters00:00 Welcome Back to Season 5 01:12 Why the Internet Is Arguing About Catholic Sex 01:24 The Controversy Over Jackie Angel's Marriage Advice 02:32 Why We Use the Term PIV 03:23 Is Talking Explicitly About Catholic Sex “Cringeworthy”? 04:15 Are Catholics Adding Rules the Church Never Taught? 05:04 What Humanae Vitae Actually Says About the Marital Act 06:26 Why Church Documents Can Be Difficult to Understand 07:35 What Natural Law Actually Means 09:24 “Each and Every Marital Act” — What Does That Mean? 10:16 Doctrine vs. Pastoral Application 11:35 Why Catholic Social Media Gets This Conversation Wrong 13:24 Why Some Couples Need Clear, Prescriptive Answers 15:09 Why Catholic Speakers Need to Say the Difficult Thing 16:01 Can Sex Be Procreative Without PIV? 17:23 What Does “Ordered Toward Life” Actually Mean? 18:32 The Unitive Meaning of Catholic Sex Matters Too 20:03 Why Some Catholics Need Someone to Just Say It 21:46 Are We Misinterpreting Humanae Vitae? 22:24 What Does “Unitive” Actually Require in Marriage? 23:39 Truth, Pastoral Care, and a Couple's Lived Experience 25:11 Where This Conversation Goes NextTwo Become Family is conversations and encouragement for your Catholic family—helping couples believe in what they are and become the family God created them to be.BOOKS, WRITING, AND RESOURCES

Crystal Hincks generated more than $250,000 in consulting engagements in a single month.But that result came after months of experimenting with lead generation strategies that worked... just not well enough.Listening tours. White papers. Webinars.She started getting in front of more decision makers.But those conversations still weren't consistently turning into paid consulting engagements.In Episode 286, Melisa Liberman sits down with Crystal to unpack the full journey behind the $250K result: the lead generation strategies she tried, what she learned from each experiment, what was breaking down between conversations and paid work, and what finally changed.Crystal shares what she discovered about her sales process, how she changed the way she showed up in conversations with prospective clients, and why that shift mattered.Then she built a lead generation initiative around how her buyers already behave.That experiment generated more than 100 applications and led to more than $250,000 in paid consulting engagements in one month.But this episode isn't about copying Crystal's tactic.It's about the process she used to get there.How do you know whether to keep going with a lead generation strategy, refine it, or replace it?How do you stay with an experiment long enough to learn from it without wasting months on something that isn't working?And how do you recognize when the problem isn't your lead generation tactic at all, but something else in the way you're creating and converting consulting opportunities?Crystal shares what she learned from the strategies that didn't work, the ones that worked only partially, and the shifts that ultimately brought the pieces together.If you're working on lead generation but still wondering why your effort isn't translating into enough consulting clients or paid opportunities, this episode will help you see what to evaluate next instead of assuming you simply need to do more.Timestamps for Key Moments:[00:00] Introduction to Crystal Hincks and why her story matters[00:02] Companion resource: Lead Gen Sprint at www.ConsultantSprint.com [00:20] Getting stuck in the friend zone and the premature proposal problem [00:29] The mindset shift: from helpful vendor to expert and peer [00:34] Value Made Visible: the initiative that created $250K in one month [00:41] What the experiment taught her about lead generation [00:45] Advice for consultants who are experimenting but not yet seeing resultsResources Mentioned:Companion Resource: The Consultant's Lead Gen Sprint.

In this episode, we sit down with Peter Remington, international bestselling author and mastermind behind the compilation book "Entrepreneur Secrets."

Peter Remington reveals how aspiring writers and entrepreneurs can share their stories by contributing just a chapter, making authorship accessible and collaborative.

Drs. John and Julie Schwartz Gottman have followed 3,000 couples, some of them for twenty years, second by second, and in this conversation Shan brings them something that research was never designed to answer: what happens to a generation that has decided love isn't available to them, and has built community around that belief instead?  Julie's answer is that those groups are writing each other a prescription for how to stay alone, and she says it with a tenderness that's hard to argue with. From there the three of them get into why criticism sabotages the exact thing you were trying to be heard about, why listening to a woman's anger is one of the strongest predictors of a relationship improving over time, and what John pulls out of his back pocket every time Julie says the four most terrifying words in the English language.  This one is for anyone who has started to suspect that being right about dating and being loved are not the same project. ____________ Ready to reach your goals?

Tamsen Fadal was 47 and anchoring the evening news when the first hot flash hit.She got off the set and lay down on the bathroom floor. No one had prepared her well for any of this. The answer, when it finally came, was a short note from her doctor in her patient portal with four words: "In menopause, any questions?"Tamsen Fadal is an Emmy Award-winning journalist, executive producer of the PBS documentary The M Factor and The M Factor 2, and New York Times bestselling author of How to Menopause. She spent thirty years in television news before turning to the thing nobody had explained to her.Tamsen and Mike get into what menopause actually is, how its symptoms can resemble anxiety or depression, and what changed after the 2002 hormone study.This is a conversation for men as much as for women. Every man is a partner, colleague, son, or father to someone moving through this. Tamsen's line is that men don't have to go through it, but they do have to understand it.Tamsen calls what comes after menopause “the next 30.” Her point is to decide what you want those years to look like, and start building toward them now.Enjoy the conversation.___________________________________________________Links & Resources:Tamsen Fadal's Website: tamsenfadal.comTamsen Fadal's Books: How to Menopause: Take Charge of Your Health, Reclaim Your Life, and Feel Even Better than Before, The New Single, Why Hasn't He Proposed?, Why Hasn't He Called?Tamsen Fadal's Documentaries: The M Factor: Shredding the Silence on Menopause and The (M) Factor 2: Before the Pause, both on PBSTamsen Fadal's Podcast: The Tamsen ShowSubscribe to our Youtube Channel for more conversations at the intersection of high performance, leadership, and wellbeing: https://www.youtube.com/c/FindingMasteryGet exclusive discounts and support our amazing sponsors!Go to: https://findingmastery.com/sponsors/Subscribe to the Finding Mastery newsletter for weekly high performance insights: https://www.findingmastery.com/newsletterDownload Dr. Mike's Morning Mindset Routine: findingmastery.com/morningmindsetFollow on YouTube, Instagram, LinkedIn, and XSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What if losing weight is actually making your metabolism worse? JJ Virgin has spent more than 40 years studying nutrition, fitness, and metabolism. She's a four-time New York Times bestselling author who has helped millions of people lose fat, build muscle, and improve their health. And she believes we've been taught to think about weight loss completely wrong. In her new book, The Metabolism Fix, JJ explains why getting lighter doesn't necessarily mean you're getting healthier. Losing the wrong kind of weight can leave you weaker, slow your metabolism, and make it easier to regain fat. So why does metabolism seem to slow as we get older? Why can dieting repeatedly make the problem worse? Is cardio actually helping you lose body fat? And what are GLP-1 medications really doing to your muscle? JJ also explains why the number on your scale may be one of the least useful ways to measure your progress, and what you should be paying attention to instead..

Sarah's list includes one actual chunkster, several books that fit into her recent Micro Genres, and 3 debuts. Stick around to the end to hear their #1 picks for fall!

The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde (Part 1) — A Calming Bedtime Story for Sleep & Insomnia | Books at Bedtime A soothing bedtime story to help you drift off tonight: Oscar Wilde's beloved fairy tale The Happy Prince, read slowly and gently for sleep, insomnia relief, and quiet, unhurried listening. This is Part 1 of a two-part reading in the Books at Bedtime strand — also known as Coffee Break for the Soul — from the Calming Anxiety podcast, a series of classic story readings designed as a calming audiobook for anxious or restless nights.For the full library, plus ambient night-light features for the small hours, download Anchored on iOS:https://apps.apple.com/us/app/anchored-panic-anxiety/id6785035669 Narrated softly by Martin Hewlett, clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic, this reading follows a gilded statue high above a city, and the little swallow who stops to shelter at his feet — and stays to hear what the statue has seen from up there. Part 2 continues and completes the story, out soon on the main feed. No jump scares, no urgency, nothing to keep your mind alert — just a slow, unhurried voice and a classic tale, ideal as a sleep story or relaxation audiobook for falling asleep, insomnia, and quieting an anxious mind before bed. First published in 1888 in the collection The Happy Prince and Other Tales, Oscar Wilde's The Happy Prince is in the public domain worldwide (Wilde died in 1900); this reading is Calming Anxiety's own narration of the classic public-domain text. This episode continues the Books at Bedtime strand, alongside The Selfish Giant (also by Oscar Wilde) and classic short fiction from Katherine Mansfield, Kate Chopin, and Arthur Conan Doyle — currently working through The Hound of the Baskervilles — with new instalments added regularly to the main Calming Anxiety feed.  

Carrying Everyone Else's Feelings? — Guided Meditation for the Quietly Exhausted | Physiological Sigh Breathing If you're always the one who copes — the reliable one, the one who checks on everyone else and never gets asked back — this guided meditation is for you. For the next ten minutes you don't have to hold anything together. We'll use the physiological sigh, a simple two-inhale, one-long-exhale breathing pattern, to ease the body down a gear, then a gentle visualisation for setting down the things you've been carrying that were never really yours.When it all gets too much before or after this session, Anchored's Instant Calm is free, offline, and always there: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/anchored-panic-anxiety/id6785035669 Hosted by clinical hypnotherapist and former paramedic Martin Hewlett, today's episode leans on a boxes-in-your-arms metaphor — the to-do list, the thing someone said, tomorrow's problems, someone else's feelings you've quietly taken on as your own — and invites you to set just one box down at a time. You are allowed to rest before everything is finished. ⏱️ Time Chapters* 00:00 – Welcome: when you're always the one who copes* 00:52 – Anchored's Instant Calm* 01:19 – Breathing: the physiological sigh* 02:37 – Visualisation: the boxes you're carrying* 04:16 – A different sentence: "I can put some of this down"* 04:49 – Today's Gentle Affirmations* 07:46 – Three Daily Caring Tips* 08:32 – Coming back, stretch and open your eyes* 09:10 – A personal reflection: speaking to yourself with kindness* 10:16 – Outro & be kind

In September 1921, Roscoe “Fatty” Arbuckle was one of the most recognizable figures in American entertainment: a silent-film comedian, director, and major Paramount star. Virginia Rappe was a model, designer, and working actress with ambitions of her own in the young film industry. After both attended a Labor Day gathering in Arbuckle's suite at San Francisco's St. Francis Hotel, Rappe became critically ill. She died four days later from peritonitis associated with a ruptured bladder. What happened in the hotel rooms—and what caused her fatal injury—became the subject of competing accounts, disputed medical testimony, and one of the most sensational criminal cases of the 1920s. Arbuckle was charged in connection with Rappe's death and faced three manslaughter trials. The first two trials ended in hung juries. In April 1922, the third jury acquitted him and issued an extraordinary statement arguing that he had been treated unjustly. But the legal verdict did not end the public scandal. Newspapers had already circulated lurid allegations, including claims never established by forensic evidence, while Rappe's private life and reputation were publicly attacked in ways that reflected the era's deep misogyny and victim-blaming culture. In this episode, we reconstruct the party at the St. Francis Hotel, trace Virginia Rappe's life before the scandal, examine the accusations made by Maude Delmont, follow the contested medical and courtroom evidence, and explore why Arbuckle's career never recovered despite his acquittal. We also investigate how the case helped fuel anti-Hollywood outrage and strengthened calls for the movie industry to regulate its stars and public image.This is not a story with a neat conclusion. It is a case shaped by a woman's death, disputed testimony, unreliable reporting, celebrity power, public prejudice, and the enduring difference between a courtroom verdict and historical certainty.

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!! We open with a very important announcement: it's REST DAY (Harrison's rest day lol but maybe all of you could join him), which somehow spirals into a real debate: is "downhill" positive or negative?! (If you're running, downhill is great. If your week is going downhill…? you see the problem.) Then Jules brings a word from the people: collective effervescence.. the term for that shared-energy magic that happened at Wrigley (and at every Fenway “Sweet Caroline”, and every Coldplay "Fix You”). We're working it into daily (or bi-annual) rotation. Plus Alex reveals her special power: she wakes up in the middle of the night and just KNOWS what time it is (psychic or circadian? The chair delivery prediction says psychic), and we realize we are officially living in the "late 20s" of the century.. which sends us straight into Y2K pandemonium and what our 4-11-year-old brains thought was happening in 1999 hahaha Then the home front: the kids book gift tip we're stealing forever (find your kid's favorite book and keep copies on hand as gifts.. Going to Sleep on the Farm is out of print but on ThriftBooks for $6!!), the universal truth that when a toddler is awake they are AWAKE, and Tate's new bit: calling Alex.. Alex. She thinks it's hilarious. Then a segment your comments built: cities have MIDDLE names?! Chicago Marie. Cincinnati Eileen. Atlanta Nicole. We're solidifying Austin Riley.. comment your city's middle name, we need them all. And another follow up from the video game convo: where does drinking after work fall on the scale?! We get into it honestly AND share our rule for drinking as new parents: one parent is ALWAYS the metaphorical DD. Meaning one of us is ALWAYS sober enough to legally drive.. because you're on duty for the kids, and in an emergency you might literally need to drive. Simple, non-negotiable, works. And in wedding world: 818 Tequila is sponsoring weddings (no contracts, no posting requirements, just vibes.. genius or too far?), and OUR wedding planning continues: it's officially a seated dinner, and Harrison's dream late-night sponsor is DoorDash hahaha We close with the lightning round of internet topics: Dyson made a $499 TOOTHBRUSH (we started at sticker shock and talked ourselves into it.. if it touches your body twice a day!), gym bros discovered the pink tax, a new app that sends your texts by virtual carrier pigeon (110mph, and a 0.2% chance your message literally dies mid-flight.. we're obsessed), and a closing pep talk: we all need to TOUGHEN UP. A cup of coffee cannot ruin your day!! Hope everyone is having a great week :-) LOVE YOU GUYS! Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:00:01 It's rest day!! (Lol) 00:05:35 Is "downhill" positive or negative?! 00:06:24 “Collective effervescence” - the word for what happened at Wrigley 00:11:26 Knowing the exact time when waking up - psychic or circadian? 00:17:09 We're now living in the “late 20s”?! (+ Y2K pandemonium) 00:21:05 The kids book gift tip we're stealing 00:24:24 When a toddler is awake, they are AWAKE 00:26:27 Tate thinks it's funny to call Alex.. Alex 00:28:29 What's your city's middle name?! 00:34:09 Video game follow up: where does drinking after work fall?! 00:36:06 818 Tequila is sponsoring weddings?!  00:40:58 Our wedding planning continued…  00:50:25 Alex is entering her fashion era (watch out)  00:52:22 Dyson made a $499 TOOTHBRUSH?! 00:L57:20 The "bro tax": gym bros now have their own pink tax 01:02:18 What if your texts traveled as slowly as a carrier pigeon?! 1:09:40 The pool chair debacle  1:11:43 We all need to TOUGHEN UP (a cup of coffee cannot ruin your day!!) 1:15:02 LOVE YOU GUYS! #twoparentsandapod -------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you to our sponsors this week: *Hers: Visit  https://forhers.com/TWOPARENTS to get a personalized, affordable plan that gets you. *Perelel: New customers can use code TWOPARENTS and get 20% off your first order at https://www.perelelhealth.com/twoparents *K12: Enroll online today at https://www.K12.com/twoparents. -------------------------------------------------------------- Listen to the pod on YouTube/Spotify/Apple: https://www.youtube.com/@twoparentsandapod https://open.spotify.com/show/7BxuZnHmNzOX9MdnzyU4bD?si=5e715ebaf9014fac https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/two-parents-a-podcast/id1737442386 -------------------------------------------------------------- Follow Two Parents & A Podcast: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/twoparentsandapod TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@twoparentsandapod Follow Alex Fugman: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/alexfugman TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@justalexfugman Follow Harrison Fugman: Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/harrisonfugman TikTok | https://www.tiktok.com/@harrisonfugman -------------------------------------------------------------- Powered by: Just Media House – https://www.justmediahouse.com/ -------------------------------------------------------------- Key Words:  two parents and a podcast, two parents and a pod, alex bennett, alex bennett fugman, harrison fugman, parenting podcast, mom podcast, dad podcast, drinking as parents, drinking after kids, alcohol and parenting, designated driver rule, sober parent, collective effervescence, city middle names, chicago marie, toddler calls parents by first name, toddler talking, kids books, best bedtime books, going to sleep on the farm, book gift ideas, dyson toothbrush, $499 toothbrush, bro tax, pink tax, carrier pigeon app, friction maxing, slow messaging, y2k, wedding sponsors, 818 tequila, toughen up, mom life, family podcast  Learn more about your ad choices.

Reporting about literacy rates typically centers on children and the concerning trend of students not reading at their grade level. Linda Mitchell believes the best way to help students have higher literacy is to get the entire family involved. Her nonprofit Metro East Literacy Project offers bags of books for kids and their parents to foster a “culture of reading” within their households. She shares what it took to get Metro East Literacy Project started and the stories from families that have grown to appreciate reading by way of her organization.

What media are you currently using to your advantage? In this episode of Choice, Change and Action, Simone Milasas talks with Justine McKell from McKell Media about how to connect with the media. Pitching to the media really needs your voice. Everyone has a story. No one loves perfection, they love to connect with the mess and the story. But don't buy the story, use it to your advantage.  The key is making sure you stand out and being so unapologetically you. People are looking for something different; be the difference!   Questions And Tools: "I'm aware of it. Now what else can I create and generate?" "What would it take to be with people who are kind and nurturing and don't judge me or my body?" Tools: People love to connect with the mess and the story. How many stories do you have that would make you accessible to the rest of the world to increase whatever it is you are currently working on that you would like to get out into the world? Spend an hour diving deep into your background, your story. Why are you doing what you are doing? What are the moments you overcame something? What happened in your life to make you choose what you do now? What is it you would actually like? But don't buy the story, use it to your advantage. Books don't necessarily earn money but they give you credibility. What if you pitch something different? Spark that curiosity. Use the access consciousness tools. Do your research so that you're pitching relevant media. There's nothing that beats the engagement between two human beings. Be willing to listen to others and receive, even though you might not agree with everyone. Stop duplicating what everybody else is doing; that's just boring. AI is not good for social media posts or pitching - it really needs your voice. The key is making sure you stand out and being so unapologetically you. Saying the name of the person interviewing you makes them become very present with you. People don't want to see perfection, they want to see you. If you fall and stumble sometimes, that's okay. Practise the art of asking questions that follow the energy. Podcasts give the listeners a chance to get to know you, which is much more valuable than when someone scrolls through a 10 second post on Instagram. A podcast is candid conversation, so you get more of that engagement and more honesty. A podcast doesn't end; you can pull content from it for months. Many things can happen off the backend of a podcast. Being interviewed on someone else's podcast springboards you by connecting with their audience. It's a way to grow your list faster. It also lets you practise speaking. Follow the energy and speak to what's there. You need to be cited in AI searches. The more media you get and the more podcasts you are on elevates you in AI searches. Don't use AI for how to run your life. You choose. The latest trend is people looking for longer content with more depth to it. What if you started to engage in a different way? find out something about people that you don't already know Everything you think is a problem is only a situation that you can look at, ask questions and choose something different. What if it's all good copy and you can use it all to your advantage? What if you allowed yourself to pivot and change the trajectory of your life when you know there is something different available? What contribution can we be to each other with the choice to actually live? Choose what works for you. There are different ways you can be in the world that creates a different invitation than what this reality is telling you you should do. Pick up the telephone and have a conversation. Attend in person events - the value of a relationship can't be forgotten.
