Podcasts about children

One of the most important and powerful responsibilities of parents is to bless their children and not curse them. In episode eight of “Raising Godly Warriors,” Duane Sheriff teaches that nothing shapes a child's future more than understanding and receiving the Lord's blessing. Proverbs 10:22 explains that God's blessing is more than material prosperity—it is His favor, grace, affirmation, and unconditional love.Blessing is transferred to children through intentional words, loving touch, and genuine forgiveness. From God's public affirmation of Jesus in Matthew 3 to the priestly blessing in Numbers 6 and Jesus blessing children in Mark 10, Scripture reveals a clear pattern: blessings are spoken, modeled, and imparted. When parents choose to speak life, release forgiveness, and affirm their children's God-given identity, they don't just impact a single generation—they shape a legacy of faith, favor, and strength that will echo for years to come.

Amy shares her story, along with practical tools for talking about puberty, consent, boundaries, and healthy relationships. Together, they explore why using correct language matters, how to normalize sexual feelings (without shame), and the unique challenges our kids face when it comes to navigating social interactions and sexuality. It's a real, raw, and important conversation designed to empower parents to show up prepared—and to replace fear with confidence.

From the Come Follow Me Manual:Most of Genesis 5 is a list of the generations between Adam and Eve and Noah. We read a lot of names, but we don't learn much about them. Then we read this intriguing but unexplained line: “And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him” (⁠Genesis 5:24⁠). Surely there's a story behind that verse! But without further explanation, the list of generations resumes.Thankfully, Moses 6 reveals the details of Enoch's story—and it's quite a story. We learn of Enoch's humility, his insecurities, the potential God saw in him, and the great work he performed as God's prophet. We also get a clearer picture of the family of Adam and Eve as it progressed through the generations. We read of Satan's “great dominion” but also of parents who taught children “the ways of God” (⁠Moses 6:15, 21⁠). Especially precious is what we learn about the doctrine these parents taught: faith in Jesus Christ, repentance, baptism, and receiving the Holy Ghost (see Moses 6:50–52⁠). That doctrine, like the priesthood that accompanies it, “was in the beginning [and] shall be in the end of the world also” (⁠Moses 6:7⁠).Song from this episode: I am Divine by listener Amanda and her son Tate.

AI meditations are everywhere right now—apps, chatbots, VR headsets promising calm in 10 minutes or less—but are AI meditations actually helping guys handle real stress, or just giving you one more screen to hide behind? In this episode, we get real about AI meditations, digital mindfulness, and whether any algorithm can truly replace a human teacher who sees you, feels the room, and knows when you're about to lose it. We sit down with guest expert Steve Haberlin, PhD, to explore the intersection of technology, meditation, and human awareness. Steve has spent years studying both traditional mindfulness practices and emerging tech—AI, virtual reality, and digital training tools—and asking hard questions about where mindfulness is headed.Together, they unpack what technology can genuinely support in mindfulness practice—and what it can't. They discuss the difference between guided experiences and embodied learning, why attention and nervous system regulation still require human relationship, and how men can engage technology without outsourcing responsibility for awareness.This episode isn't anti-tech. It's pro-discernment.In this conversation, you'll hear:• The rise of AI-guided meditation and VR mindfulness tools• What technology can accelerate—and what it cannot replace• Why embodiment and nervous system regulation matter more than insights• The risk of mistaking consumption for practice• How real teachers differ from algorithms• Where mindfulness is likely headed in the next decade• How men can use tech without avoiding responsibility or presenceIf you're curious about meditation apps, AI tools, or the future of mindfulness—but want grounded perspective instead of hype—this episode offers clarity.You'll walk away with:✅ A realistic understanding of AI's role in mindfulness✅ Language to evaluate meditation tools critically✅ A clearer sense of what real practice requires✅ Perspective on presence in an increasingly digital worldSponsor:Peptides for Health by Mark L.

This episode explores how children's aspirations are fundamentally shaped by their experiences and what they're exposed to. Drawing from Prof Dr Ger Graus's groundbreaking work with the Wythenshawe Education Action Zone and Manchester Airport, they unpack the reality that children from disadvantaged backgrounds often can't dream of careers they've never seen.The conversation moves from airports to universities, examining how partnership between education and industry can transform lives. Ger shares compelling research from KidZania revealing that stereotypes are set by age 4, and discusses the Children's University model that brought families into higher education spaces for the first time.Ger challenges listeners to think beyond traditional schooling, emphasizing the critical importance of out-of-school experiences, parental engagement, and creating purposeful learning that helps young people discover why education matters—not just what they must learn.Key Quotes"If you have a strong purpose in life, you don't have to be pushed. Your passion will drive you there." - Roy T. Bennett (quoted by Ger Graus)"Don't you know that people from Wythenshawe don't fly planes?" - 6-7 year old children to Ger GrausThis heartbreaking response reveals how aspirational lids are placed on children's jars from an early age, limiting what they believe is possible for themselves."We get hung up on schooling more than education...we're quite happy to alienate the parents. We actually don't want much to do with the parents." - Ger Graus"We need to draw the parents in, we must make them our co-educators...it takes a village to raise a child. Well, we need to remember that the village consists of different components and parents and grandparents are very important but we must engage them." - Ger Graus"Give me a confident learner and I'll bring you the grades." - Ger GrausThis powerful statement challenges the system's focus on test results over building confident, independent learners who can thrive in any context.Key TakeawaysChildren can only aspire to careers and opportunities they know exist—exposure mattersStereotypes about career choices are set by age 4, yet we don't discuss futures until age 14Partnerships between schools, businesses, and communities create win-win situationsOut-of-school experiences are not luxuries—they're essential for breaking cycles of disadvantageTrue education requires engaging parents as co-educators, not alienating themWe need futures awareness in primary schools, not just careers education in secondary schoolsJoin the conversation using #educationonfire and share your stories of expanding children's horizons.Chapters:00:10 - Celebrating Milestones in Education00:39 - Introduction to the Series: Gare Grouse Gets Gritty12:50 - Aspirations and Limitations: The Impact of Local Perceptions on Career Choices17:55 - The Importance of Experience in Learning

I remember a time when they might have been able to sell their propaganda, but we are on to them. The more frustrated they get as they survey their losses, the more desperate they get.I'd like to discuss MN, CA, Davos, the crime drop, Jack Smith's testimony, etc. and hopefully we will get to much of this.If Democrats were Olympic athletes, they wouldn't compete in governance. They'd dominate synchronized distraction. Perfect form. Flawless timing. Sticks the landing every time something criminal-looking wanders into the light.At this point, it's not even subtle. It's vaudeville.Whenever fraud bubbles up, whenever subpoenas knock, whenever a paper trail starts behaving like a bloodhound, Democrats don't answer questions. They release balloons. Smoke machines. Children. Preferably children holding protest signs. Because nothing says “nothing to see here” like a minor chanting slogans they learned five minutes earlier in exchange for missing geometry.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Discover what I see inside every “defiant” kid's brain map—revealing that oppositional behavior isn't defiance but a dysregulated brain signaling stress. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge, expert in Regulation First Parenting™, guides parents to understand, support, and calmly regulate their children's emotions.Parenting a defiant child can feel exhausting, confusing, and even isolating. You might wonder if their arguing, refusals, or meltdowns mean you're failing—but you're not alone, and it's not bad parenting.In this episode, I reveal what I see inside every defiant kid's brain map and explain how oppositional and defiant behavior is actually a signal of a dysregulated brain. You'll learn how brain patterns drive defiance, why regulation must come before discipline, and practical strategies to help your child calm, focus, and thrive.Why does my child act defiant all the time?When parents hear “defiant,” it often triggers guilt or frustration—but defiance is never the first problem. Even behaviors that look like oppositional defiant disorder are often a sign of underlying dysregulation, not a personality flaw.Defiant behavior is a symptom, not a personality flaw.Children react to stress, overwhelm, or sensory input, and their behavior is simply a visible signal that their brain is struggling to cope.Brain maps show chronic overactivation in the limbic system—the emotional center of the brain. Kids are in constant fight, flight, or freeze mode.Example: A child who refuses homework may not be stubborn—they're simply overwhelmed by information, sensory input, or stress.

In this episode, we continue our book study of The Spirit-Filled Home with Chapter Three: Parenting Challenges. Whether you are reflecting on your childhood, working on your own personal maturity, or parenting your children, this episode is for you. This episode is all about the relationship between personal maturity and effective parenting. In it, we give a brief overview of the five stages of maturity development according to The Life Model and how God designed us to grow and relate to one another. Infants need smiles, security, and synchronization to develop emotional stability. Children need to cultivate discernment and discipline to carry into adulthood. With hope and grace for you, we're covering these thoughts and more. Thank you for joining us - father-daughter duo Marcus Warner and Stephanie Warner - on the trail to a deeper walk with God!  

Hello friends—welcome back to Don't Cut Your Own Bangs, the cozy corner of the internet where we let our tender, imperfect selves exist.  This week we're talking about sustainable self-care—not the kind that turns into a color-coded assignment, but the kind that actually supports you in real life. I'm sharing two simple processes you can use anytime (even if you're burnt out, busy, or running on the last 3% of your battery). Plus: a few examples to help you rethink what "self-care" can look like when it's truly working. In this episode, we explore: What makes self-care sustainable (and why "a list of habits" often backfires) A quick "ideal day" exercise that helps you tune into what you actually need A simple somatic body-scan practice (hello, nervous system support) How to tell if a self-care practice is helping: before / during / after Real-life examples—from travel planning to solitude to tap dancing Key takeaways Self-care is only self-care if it's working—and "working" can change by season. Sustainable self-care is a process, not a perfection plan. Your body gives honest feedback—sometimes before your brain catches up.

In this E438 Inner Voice A heartfelt Chat with Dr. Foojan, Dr. Foojan sits down with Dr. Jann Blackstone, renowned child custody mediator, author, and co-parenting expert, to explore the realities of co-parenting after divorce, blended families, and the concept of “bonus families.” Dr. Jann is the founder of Bonus Families, a nonprofit organization helping divorced and separated parents peacefully co-parent and create emotionally healthy family systems. Drawing from decades of professional experience—and her own journey through divorce, remarriage, and step-parenting—Dr. Jann shares actionable tools and compassionate insights for navigating complex family dynamics while always putting children first. In this episode, you'll learn how reframing blended families as “bonus families” transforms relationships between parents, step-parents, and children. Dr. Jann explains why children are often caught in loyalty conflicts, secret-keeping, and overhearing negative comments about their parents, and how to prevent these emotional burdens. Key topics include: • Understanding the impact of bad-mouthing, gossip, and reporting conflicts on children • Teaching children conflict resolution skills through modeling calm and respectful behavior • Creating co-parenting plans before conflicts arise to prevent confusion and manipulation • Handling different discipline styles across households and maintaining consistency • Introducing new partners and step-parents in a healthy, age-appropriate, child-centered way • Avoiding comparisons between biological parents, step-parents, and bonus families • Turning divorce into an opportunity to teach emotional intelligence and resilience • Navigating holidays, extended family integration, and the challenges of adult children • Tips from Dr. Jann's bestselling books:

(This episode was recorded before the tragic murder of ICU nurse Alex Pretti by ICE in Minneapolis today). On Tuesday, ICE detained a 5 year old boy in Minneapolis. They grabbed him in the driveway of his home after he came home from pre-school, and used him as bait to capture his father. He has now been kidnapped by ICE, and is being held with his father inside an ICE facility in Texas, likely inside the notorious cages we've seen so many pictures of. On this episode of The Siren Podcast, Jo is joined by Miles Taylor, founder of DEFIANCE.org. Miles told us some shocking details about Stephen Miller's role in ICE's kidnapping of children, and how their cruelty here is intentional: “You what was Stephen Miller trying to do? And what I was told, and this is again, early days of the Trump administration, what I was told is there were plans at the White House to implement a deliberate policy of child separation at the border to rip a kid away from a parent as a means of deterrence, so that if you were thinking about coming to this country, you would think twice because the US government would rip your child from you. So it was intentional.” Liam Ramos is just one of at least four children, all from the same school district, who have been detained this month by ICE, according to school officials. The knee-jerk reaction of MAGA and the Trump regime was to call this five year old child an “illegal alien.” Yes, a five year old. According to Marc Prokosch, the family's lawyer, “They came properly. They came legally, and are pursuing a legal pathway.” But honestly, talking about their legal status isn't important anymore. Because ICE doesn't care who is and isn't a U.S. citizen. Last Sunday, ICE broke down the door of an elderly Hmong immigrant and naturalized U.S. citizen with no criminal record. They brought him outside in the freezing cold with no clothes on, and proceeded to drive him around before realizing he was a U.S. citizen. All in front of his now traumatized grandson. We've also seen ICE tackling and pepper spraying journalists and pregnant mothers, all of whom are citizens. And of course, ICE shot Renee Nicole Good in broad daylight, and then proceeded to deny her medical care for eight minutes while she died. And now, an ICE whistleblower has leaked a secret memo written by ICE leadership, meant to be hidden from the public, detailing how ICE agents were verbally given the ability to violate the fourth amendment, saying agents can “forcibly enter into certain people's homes without a judicial warrant.” And get this: Even DHS's own training materials say this is directly unconstitutional. But it's not all bad news. On this episode, Miles tells us his bright, inspiring plans for the future, and how we can all collectively resist against this authoritarian regime. You'll want to stick around to hear about Miles' new org, and the massive event they have planned during Trump's State of the Union. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Health Challenges for Her From Trauma and Recovery: How One Child Abuse Investigator Turned Pain Into Purpose. For more than two decades, she stood on the front lines of child protection in California, investigating some of the most disturbing cases of abuse and neglect imaginable. As a seasoned Child Abuse Investigator, she bore witness to the darkest corners of humanity, stories most people never hear, and few could carry without consequence. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Those consequences eventually arrived. Check out Her Podcast appearance, and content shared for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube and most major podcast platforms. In the final year of her investigative career, Brandy Krueg was diagnosed with PTSD. The diagnosis forced her to confront a truth she had long postponed: the emotional weight of trauma does not disappear simply because the job is done. Supporting articles about this and much more from Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast in platforms like Medium , Blogspot and Linkedin . “I was trained to protect children, not myself,” Brandy has said. “For years, I believed strength meant pushing through. I didn't realize how much I was carrying until my body and mind finally said, ‘Enough.'” Two Cases That Changed Everything Among the many investigations Brandy handled, two child abuse cases left an indelible mark on her mental health and recovery. One of those cases escalated into a devastating homicide, a tragedy that still echoes through her work today. Health Challenges for Her From Trauma and Recovery: How One Child Abuse Investigator Turned Pain Into Purpose. Available for free on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website, also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and most major Podcast networks. “When a case ends in murder, it doesn't just close,” she explains. “It lives with you. You replay every decision, every report, every moment you wonder if something, anything, could have changed the outcome.” The emotional toll of repeated exposure to violence, abuse, and loss is well-documented among frontline professionals, yet often minimized. Brandy's experience highlights the health challenges for her from trauma and recovery, a reality shared by many investigators, first responders, and healthcare workers who silently shoulder cumulative trauma. From Investigator to Therapist Following her PTSD diagnosis, Brandy made a life-altering transition. Today, she is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and practicing therapist, specializing in trauma recovery for frontline professionals and their families. Look for The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast on social media like their Facebook , Instagram , LinkedIn , Medium and other social media platforms. Based in California, Brandy now helps others navigate the very terrain she once crossed alone. “Healing didn't mean leaving my past behind,” she says. “It meant understanding it, and using it to help others survive theirs.” Health Challenges for Her From Trauma and Recovery. Her work as an in-house therapist with the Stockton Police Department places her alongside officers coping with stress, addiction, critical incidents, and cumulative trauma. Certified in First Responder Counseling, Critical Incident Stress Management (CCISM), and EMDR, Brandy delivers evidence-based care tailored to high-risk professions. A Childhood Marked by Abuse, and Survival Brandy's professional journey cannot be separated from her personal story. Raised by a teenage mother battling bipolar disorder and addiction, her childhood was marked by instability, emotional neglect, violent outbursts, and repeated abuse by trusted family friends. Available for free on their website and streaming on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other podcast platforms. Her experiences reflect a painful reality often hidden behind closed doors, one that shapes both victims and the professionals who later serve them. “I didn't just investigate abuse,” Brandy writes. “I understood it.” That understanding would later become the foundation of her memoir, Turning Pain Into Purpose. Turning Pain Into Purpose: A Memoir of Trauma and Redemption In Turning Pain Into Purpose, Brandy chronicles her journey from a childhood defined by abuse, to a career immersed in trauma, and finally to a life rooted in healing and advocacy. The book is unflinching, deeply human, and profoundly hopeful. Health Challenges for Her From Trauma and Recovery. The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast episode is available for free on their website , Apple Podcasts , Spotify and most major podcast platforms. As she navigates unimaginable loss, the death of loved ones, and her sister's battle with addiction, Brandy becomes the protector she never had, first for herself, then for her children, and ultimately for others. “Trauma may shape us,” she writes, “but it does not get to define us.” The book has resonated widely across Facebook, Instagram, and LinkedIn, and has been featured in conversations spanning News outlets, The Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast interview, and their platforms like Apple, Spotify, Youtube, Facebook, where Brandy speaks openly about trauma, recovery, and resilience. Advocacy, Education, and Healing Today, through Krueg Therapy Services, Brandy empowers individuals and organizations with trauma counseling, wellness training, leadership coaching, and education for frontline staff and supervisors. She also serves as a Trauma Social Worker in a Level 2 trauma emergency room and as an Emergency Response Social Worker with Sacramento County's Children's Protective Services.

Health Challenges for Her From Trauma and Recovery. More information and the interview with him is available on the Law Enforcement Talk Radio Show and Podcast website also on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube and other major platforms “We can't keep asking people to run into fires without teaching them how to recover from the burns,” Brandy says. A Voice for the Voiceless More than a memoir, Turning Pain Into Purpose is a beacon for those who feel broken, lost, or unheard. It speaks not only to survivors of abuse, but to professionals who carry trauma in silence, and to anyone searching for meaning after suffering. Brandy Krueg's story is proof that while trauma leaves scars, it can also create clarity, compassion, and purpose. Her life's work stands as a reminder that healing is possible, and that sometimes, the most powerful way forward is to turn pain into a platform for hope.

The Newcastle Castle occupies a strange position in the city centre. So strange that some people can't believe we have a castle in town at all! Various buildings have stood on the site for centuries, dating back to the Romans and their Pons Aelius fort. Robert Curthose, the eldest son of William the Conqueror, originally founded Newcastle Castle in 1080. This early castle was made from wood, and builders rebuilt the castle in stone between 1168 and 1178. It has been a castle, a prison, a beer cellar and Civil War stronghold. Now, it's a visitor attraction, and one that I highly recommend seeing if you can. But as with any English castle, stories both sad and strange abound within Newcastle Castle. Let's examine three of its legends as part of our exploration of folklore found within cities in this week's episode of Fabulous Folklore.

January 24, 2026; 9am: A striking image of a five-year-old wearing a blue-knit bunny hat went viral this week after witnesses said he was used as “bait” to lure his father from their home. The Department of Homeland Security claimed the child was detained because he was abandoned by his father, who fled the scene – but school officials have disputed the administration's account of events. Those officials, School Superintendent Zena Stenvik and School Board Chair Mary Granlund, join “The Weekend” to describe the scene and share how ICE operations are impacting their community.For more, follow us on social media:Bluesky: @theweekendmsnow.bsky.socialInstagram: @theweekendmsnowTikTok: @theweekendmsnow To listen to this show and other MS podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.
