This week's episode is one that every parent can relate to. I'm joined by Monica Swanson to talk about a struggle many of us face—raising kids who aren't entitled in a world that often is. Here are a few takeaways from today's conversation:As parents, we need to be intentional about combating entitlement in our homes. Teaching kids responsibility and real-life opportunities to work hard builds character. Helping our kids develop a heart of gratitude is one of the best ways to fight entitlement. Parenting is a learning process, and it's okay to wrestle with these challenges while seeking wisdom and growth. Monica Swanson is an author, speaker, and host of The Monica Swanson Podcast (formerly The Boy Mom Podcast). As a mom of four boys, she shares practical wisdom on raising kids with strong character, work ethic, and faith in today's world. This conversation is just two friends trying to figure it out together, and we're so glad you're stepping into it with us. I hope you leave feeling encouraged and equipped to guide your kids toward gratitude, responsibility, and strong character.

In the whirlwind of daily life, it's easy to get lost in the hustle and forget to pause and appreciate the simple blessings around us. As Thanksgiving approaches, it's the perfect time to reflect on how a grateful heart can truly transform our lives—not just for the holiday, but every single day. In this special bonus episode of the Embrae Your Real podcast, I'm sharing ten powerful Bible verses that light the way to authentic gratitude. These verses remind us that fulfillment isn't about material wealth, but about cultivating a deep sense of faith and thankfulness. Through them, we see how the love and faithfulness of God can shape a life of genuine contentment. Gratitude is more than just a feeling—it's a conscious choice that strengthens our bonds with God and those we love. As we gather with family and friends this season, let's remember that gratitude is both a bridge and a balm, helping us create joy and connection that lasts far beyond Thanksgiving dinner.

PASTOR CLAUDE STAUFFER Mary Danielsen welcomes back Pastor Claude Stauffer of Calvary Chapel of Hope in Amityville, NY. Pastor Claude is one of the best expositors of the entire counsel of Scripture, looking at God's Word in a balanced and detailed lens to help the Christian grow in their faith and in their knowledge of their Saviour. Today we talk about "thanksgiving" - not in a head knowledge way, as a cliche, or a superficial way, but in the very lifestyle that is built upon a heart filled to overflowing with gratitude for what God has done for us. Being thankful is God's will for us - and it is a tremendous witness to a lost and dying world. We should be people of praise and filled with joy even during the darkest hours, because God is good above all (Psalm 107). We will look at Romans 1, where Paul makes a charge that part of the downgrade of mankind is because he lacks gratitude. What a powerful verse that is! We also address anxiety and the place of gratitude in counteracting the negative things we tend to dwell on. Thanksgiving is everyone's favorite holiday, so let's "set the table" of our walk with the Lord being people who are thankful above all. Enter His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise! Let the redeemed of the Lord say so. Pastor Claude's bible commentaries are available here. Shameless plug for swag for our listeners/donors! https://www.redpillprints.com/stand-up-for-the-truth - Thanks for YOUR Support!

When you're childless after infertilityMother's Day can be a challenge. It's a time that can feel heavy with reminders and emotions, but fear not, I'm here to walk you through it with care and compassion. Finding Peace Amidst the Mother's Day Buzz: Acknowledge Your Feelings: It's okay to feel a mix of emotions during this time. Whether it's sadness, anger, or even ambivalence, give yourself permission to feel what you feel without judgment. Create Boundaries: Opt out of Mother's Day-related emails and social media if they're triggering for you. Your mental health comes first, and setting boundaries is an act of self-love. Crafting Your Own Meaningful Mother's Day: Plan Your Day: Take control of how you spend Mother's Day. Whether it's hosting a gathering, indulging in self-care, or simply taking a quiet moment for reflection, prioritize activities that bring you peace and joy. Write Yourself a Letter: Channel your inner Hallmark and write yourself a heartfelt Mother's Day card. Celebrate the qualities that make you proud, and affirm your worthiness of love and recognition. Cultivating Gratitude and Connection: Express Appreciation: Reach out to the people in your life who've supported you on your journey. Let them know how much their presence means to you, and express gratitude for their love and understanding. Remembering Your Worth Beyond Motherhood: Reflect on Your Significance: Take time to reflect on the meaningful contributions you make to the world, regardless of your parental status. Your worth is not defined by motherhood, but by the unique essence of who you are. As you navigate Mother's Day, know that you're not alone. Your journey is valid, and your feelings are heard and honored. Take this time to care for yourself, to acknowledge your strength, and to embrace the beauty of your unique path. You are worthy of love, celebration, and belonging, today and every day.
It's time to take a big moment of gratitude for the many ways that you are consistent in your life. What self-care practices do you return to again and again, without really thinking about it? There was a time in your life that this behavior wasn't routine - and the fact that it is now is something to be grateful for. Tune in to honor yourself and your ability to show up for yourself in exactly the way you need.

With the holiday rush and all the stress that comes with it, it's easy to feel overwhelmed and lost. That's why taking the time to meditate and cultivate gratitude becomes crucial for finding inner peace amidst the chaos. By creating a pause in our busy lives, we can nurture a sense of inner calm and resilience. This allows us to navigate the challenges of the winter season with more mindfulness and appreciation for moments of joy and connection. The episode starts by highlighting that it's not necessary to dedicate hours to reflection and meditation. Even small moments of mindful gratitude can chip away at chronic stress and bring us closer to inner peace. Listeners are guided through a meditation exercise that encourages them to find a comfortable and quiet space, relax their bodies, and focus on their breath. They are then invited to imagine a serene winter landscape and reflect on moments of gratitude. By soaking in the warmth of these reflections, they can allow that tranquility to spread throughout their bodies. The episode concludes with a reminder for listeners to carry the warmth of gratitude and the strength of resilience with them as they return to the outside world. Even in the midst of life's winter days, finding and maintaining inner peace is always possible. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
