In this episode, I had three experts come on the show, but they're not the typical experts I have on Focus Forward. I got to sit down with three incredible teens, Eliza, Mark, and Sam, to talk honestly about conflict and how to manage it between teens and adults. This episode is one I've been wanting to do for so long and I'm thrilled to bring it to you today.We covered everything from communication styles to what it feels like to be misunderstood, and even how trust is built—or broken—in those tricky conversations. And of course, I couldn't not mention EF skills, so you'll hear me comment here and there on how key executive function skills like self-regulation, flexible thinking, and perspective-taking show up in real life and impact us during conflict and resolution. Listen to learn from these teens about the importance of creating space for mistakes and learning, and how trust is the answer - we have to work to trust them and they us. It's a hard journey that we're all making together. These teens were thoughtful, vulnerable, and wise beyond their years. I think you'll walk away with some valuable insight—and maybe even a few moments of, "Oof… yeah, I've done that as a parent or teacher." I know I experienced this multiple times! But, as we've heard Ellen Galinsky, Nerissa Bauer, Ken Gisburg, and others, say, it's never too late to make a difference in how you interact with your kids.

Sukjeong said with a smile.Ko: 두 사람은 함께 학교 근처의 상점가로 나섰다.En: The two of them set off together to the shopping district near the school.Ko: 여름의 햇살이 길에 쏟아졌다.En: The summer sun bathed the streets.Ko: 상점가에는 대학생들이 즐겨 찾는 여러 매장이 있었다.En: The shopping district had several stores frequented by university students.Ko: 가장 먼저 방문한 곳은 대형 할인점이었다.En: The first place they visited was a large discount store.Ko: 이곳에서 이불, 베개, 책상, 조명 등 진수에게 필요한 기본적인 물건들을 모두 구할 수 있었다.En: Here, they could find all the basic items Jinsu needed, such as blankets, pillows, a desk, and lighting.Ko: 그러나 진수는 어디서부터 시작해야 할지 몰랐다.En: However, Jinsu didn't know where to start.Ko: "뭐부터 살까?" 진수가 혼잣말했다.En: "What should I buy first?" he muttered to himself.Ko: 숙정은 여유롭게 말했다.En: Sukjeong spoke with ease.Ko: "처음에는 침구류부터 시작해. 네가 잘 자고 쉬어야 학교 생활도 잘 할 수 있어."En: "Start with bedding initially. If you sleep and rest well, you'll be able to manage school life better."Ko: 진수는 고개를 끄덕이며 숙정의 말을 따르기로 결정했다.En: Jinsu nodded and decided to follow her advice.Ko: 하지만 매장의 끝없는 물건들 앞에 서서 손이 떨리기 시작했다.En: But standing in front of the seemingly endless products in the store, his hands began to tremble.Ko: "이건 너무 많아. 나 혼자 할 수 있을까?" 진수는 속으로 계속해서 물었다.En: "This is too much. Can I do this alone?" Jinsu kept asking himself.Ko: 그때 숙정이 손을 얹으며 말했다. "진수야, 그냥 하나씩 천천히 하면 돼. 가장 필요한 것부터 사자."En: It was then that Sukjeong placed a reassuring hand on him and said, "Jinsu, just take it slow, one thing at a time. Let's buy the most necessary items first."Ko: 숙정의 차분한 말에 진수는 다시 마음을 진정시킬 수 있었다.En: Thanks to Sukjeong's calm words, Jinsu was able to regain his composure.Ko: 물건을 고를 때마다 진수는 숙정에게 조언을 구했다.En: Each time he chose an item, he sought Sukjeong's advice.Ko: 둘은 함께 작은 냄비에서 커튼까지 필요한 여러 물건들을 고르고 샀다.En: Together, they picked and purchased various essential items, from small pots to curtains.Ko: 며칠 후, 진수는 기숙사 방에 들어섰다.En: A few days later, Jinsu entered his dorm room.Ko: 이젠 휑했던 방이 작은 집처럼 변했다.En: It had transformed from an empty space into a cozy little home.Ko: 그는 자신이 모든 것을 준비했다는 안도감과 성취감을 느꼈다.En: He felt a sense of relief and accomplishment, knowing he had prepared everything.Ko: "숙정아, 정말 고마워!" 진수가 감사의 인사를 전했다.En: "Thank you so much, Sukjeong!" Jinsu expressed his gratitude.Ko: 숙정은 활짝 웃었다.En: Sukjeong smiled broadly.Ko: "언제든지 도울게."En: "I'll help whenever you need."Ko: 진수는 현실적인 결정을 내리는 능력을 가지게 됐고, 처음 기숙사 생활에 대한 두려움도 줄어들었다.En: Jinsu had gained the ability to make practical decisions, and his initial fear of dorm life had diminished.Ko: 이제 진수는 대학 생활을 기대하고 있었다.En: Now, he was looking forward to university life.Ko: 기숙사의 창문 밖으로 한여름의 찬란한 태양이 드리워졌다.En: Outside the dormitory window, the brilliant summer sun shone brightly.

Crushed by Depression, Called by God: How Faith and Purpose Saved Mason Smith   In this powerful and vulnerable episode of Domestic Dad: Cleaning Up The Mess, host Nick Barnett sits down with Mason Smith—a former youth pastor, missionary, husband, and father—for a deeply personal journey through depression, a suicide attempt, spiritual awakening, and calling.   Mason didn't grow up in chaos. He had a loving family and a strong foundation. But his world was shattered by a series of tragic losses that opened the door to darkness, depression, and numbness. At just 17 years old, he sat on his bed with a loaded shotgun, ready to end his life—until God intervened in a miraculous way.   This episode explores that moment—and everything that followed. Mason shares the long road from surviving to living: walking away from the fence of apathy, wrestling with his faith, and slowly rebuilding his life one surrendered step at a time. From college disillusionment to his first mission trip that awakened a true love for God, Mason's story is one of obedience, purpose, and the relentless pursuit of truth.   Nick and Mason dive into the messiness of ministry, the beauty of fatherhood, and the calling that eventually led Mason to become the Asia Director for a global missions organization. Along the way, we hear about his love story with his wife, raising two boys, and what it means to lead with humility, honesty, and faith.   For anyone who's ever wondered if their past disqualifies them from their purpose—this conversation is proof that your darkest moments can become your greatest testimony. Mason's story is a reminder that no matter how far you've fallen, God isn't done with you yet.   Timestamps:   00:00 Introduction and Greetings 00:30 Childhood Memories 02:22 First Encounter with Loss 04:48 Struggles with Depression 06:19 Turning Point and Faith Journey 08:43 High School Challenges 18:59 College Life and Spiritual Awakening 23:53 Mission Work and Personal Growth 30:34 Finding Love and Building a Family 37:56 Ministry and Life Lessons 39:31 Supporting Each Other in Ministry 40:24 A Call to Missions 42:06 A Divine Encounter 44:53 Stepping Out in Faith 45:46 Finding the Right Fit 48:37 The Importance of Support 56:53 Fatherhood Reflections 01:06:18 Advice for Those in Despair 01:14:50 The Power of Community 01:15:27 Final Thoughts and Gratitude   ⸻   Website: www.domesticdadproject.com YouTube: @DomesticDadProject Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/DOMESTICDADPROJECT/ Instagram: @the_domestic_dad_project   ⸻   Support Mason's Missions Work: Visit www.storylinemissions.org, click on “Give,” and consider donating to Mason Smith or the Asia missions team.
