In this episode, Jenny Brown introduces a title for the Parent Hope Project's parenting approach. Part one of this series asks the question: Is this just another parenting style with a whole lot of techniques?Part two will explore what this approach looks like beyond the parent-child relationship, extending into the parenting partnership.Differentiation-Based Parenting, rooted in Bowen family systems theory, emphasises the value of parents becoming more self-aware while maintaining a non-anxious connection with their children. Unlike most parenting approaches, which focus primarily on children's needs and vulnerabilities, this approach encourages parents to cultivate emotional space by focusing on managing themselves.This allows both the parents and their children to develop independently while simultaneously fostering a loving relationship. By recognising their own emotional triggers and responses, parents can avoid being overly influenced by their children's moods and behaviours, promoting clearer communication and problem-solving. This parenting stance supports a healthier family dynamic, enabling children to grow as unique individuals who can learn to manage their emotions and challenges, ultimately leading to more resilient and independent young people.Newsletter-https://parenthopeproject.com.au/#newsletter Youtube-http://www.youtube.com/@ParentHopeProject Facebook-https://www.facebook.com/coachingparents Instagram-https://www.instagram.com/parenthopeproject/ LinkedIn-https://www.linkedin.com/company/79093727/admin/feed/posts/ Website-https://parenthopeproject.com.au/ Contact us: Contact@parentproject.com.au (02) 9904 5600

With a gentle yet profound touch, Yvonne unveils the essence of human experience, inviting us to explore the depths of what it is to be human and alive, and the power of mindful presence.Yvonne's journey is not just about storytelling; it's a testament to the transformative power of conversation and connection.

Is it possible to prevent death if we had acted differently? How do we want to be remembered in our final days? These questions linger, challenging us to confront our own mortality and that of our loved ones with courage and compassion.So, Yvonne wondered, why do we avoid talking about the end of life until it's too late?

In "Dying with Dad," she shares the joy of her father's passing on his own terms—a triumph born from heartfelt discussions and unwavering love."Dying with Dad" serves as a beacon of hope, inspiring us to embrace meaningful discussions about aging, death, and grief. Through Yvonne's guidance, we learn that these conversations aren't just about facing our mortality; they're about embracing life's final chapters with grace and dignity.As our conversation draws to a close, the echoes of Yvonne's wisdom linger, reminding us of the importance of embracing life in all its beauty and complexity.

Discover how to turn your dining table into a Happiness Zone, where mouthwatering meals and laughter intertwine. I'll walk you through how to integrate these precious sit-downs into your bustling schedule, and even involve the kids from the planning phase right up to the last dish wiped clean. And let's not forget the conversation starters – far from the banal "How was your day?" that too often meets dead silence. We've got unique ways to spark engaging family dialogue that will have everyone eager to share and listen.As we reminisce over the transformative expedition of the past year, I'm excited to share insights gleaned from a dietitian that underscore how as few as three family meals a week can bolster mental health for kids and adults alike. It's not about achieving perfection; it's about cultivating presence and effort, creating an environment that nourishes more than just our physical selves. So, pull up a chair and tune in for a reflection that's ripe with actionable tips to ensure your family feels fit in mind, body, and spirit. Next time you gather around the table, remember it's more than just a meal—it's building a legacy of connection and happiness, one dinner at a time.

Continuing in our Cultivating Connection series, we're onto #2 - Send Life Updates. Keeping people updated in your life (even when they're far away) is a great way to stay connected. We also dive into practical ways we do this with family far away, being okay with organic hang outs rather than the perfectly planned date, and initiating conversations with those you haven't heard from. These concepts are based on an article linked here. Listen to Part 1 - InitiateWhat did you love most about this episode?

In today's world, characterized by advanced technology and increasing isolation, there's a pressing need to foster real connection. As technology continues to advance, genuine human connections are taking a backseat. However, in Scripture we find that God recognizes; "It is not good for man to be alone." (Genesis 2:18). As part of God's unique design, He wired us for meaningful connection where we find strength, love, and support from others. This week, as we celebrate Thanksgiving and a season of connection and gratitude, we have two pastors to help us navigate a season that also can be lonely and disconnected. Author and pastor Levi Lusko sheds light on the growing loneliness crisis in our highly connected world, and Daniel Darling explains the fundamental aspects of healthy relationships, including forgiveness, reconciliation, and trust.   Links, Products, and Resources Mentioned: Jesus Calling Podcast Jesus Calling Jesus Always Jesus Listens Past interview: Larry Randolph and Jennifer Bleakley Upcoming interview: Eric Constanzo www.ReadRelief.com Not That Fancy Jesus Listens for Advent and Christmas Genesis 2:18 NIV   Levi Lusko  Fresh Life Church Surgeon General Psalms 8 NIV Neil deGrasse Tyson Ezekiel 3:15 NIV Marvel at the Moon   Daniel Darling National Religious Broadcasters Association Land Center for Cultural Engagement  Texas Baptist College 1 Timothy NIV 2 Timothy NIV John 13:34-35 NIV www.danieldarling.com   Interview Quotes: “God said, ‘It's not good that man should be alone.' And so I think there's something of the human experience where our souls will always crave and always be deficient if we're not having those vital exchanges, those conversations, those moments.” - Levi Lusko  “I think when we lift our eyes, we'll be reminded, Hey, the one who made the moon, the one who with His fingers called out the stars, with His voice, with the word of His power, separated light from darkness, He loves you. He has a plan for you. He came in the person of Jesus to this world. He wants to have a relationship with you.” - Levi Lusko  “No matter what you're facing today, God is safe to build your life upon, and the weather and the wind can change in a moment, but God's Word never will.” - Levi Lusko  “Jesus knows what you're going through and He has a plan for you in it. He has a plan to give you power and to give you peace and to give you comfort.” - Levi Lusko “Paul says at one point in 1 Timothy, he says, ‘To fight the good fight.' In other words, there are things worth fighting for.” - Daniel Darling  “Paul says to Timothy in 2 Timothy, ‘Avoid stupid and foolish arguments.' And so there are things that we may have opinions on and that may be important to us, but we should be open handed about them and learn to love and live with people who disagree.” - Daniel Darling  “We should say, ‘I'm going to hold onto you amidst all this turmoil in the world, amidst these raging rapids. I'm not going to let you go as a friend.' I think this is what God is calling us to do.” - Daniel Darling “We don't have to be alone. We can be known by God and we can know God.” - Daniel Darling  “Once we understand how much God has forgiven us in Christ, anything that we've done against God is even worse than the worst thing done to us, if we can imagine that. And God gives us that ability to forgive.” - Daniel Darling “See how God will use you as a witness in your own family and in your own communities.” - Daniel Darling  “We're praying to a personal God. We can ask Him for our personal needs. We can draw on Him for strength in our own personal lives, and what a blessing it has been to my family and to countless other families.” - Daniel Darling  ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!
