In this week's episode... Bonwyn, Kav and Alydin are invited on an exploratory expedition to see if rumors are true about a mysterious Ghost Elk in the Verboten Forest. A fun day out and a trial run for joining Folen and his crew on their upcoming adventure!

In this week's episode of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Dungeons & Dragons⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ pirate adventure, the Bucs creep deeper into the fortress, slipping from their crate into a strange chamber built from stone, metal and something that feels a bit too alive. As silent candles flicker and strange guards wheel in fresh cargo, the crew seize their chance, sending bodies to sleep and stealing armour that hums with power. With collars that glow and shadows that feel wrong, the path ahead is not exactly comforting as Dice and luck start to twist in odd ways.Will these stolen uniforms fool anyone?

Jamison Price returns to discuss his new guide on self-mastery, "On Dragons, Lions, & Wolves."He shares three metaphors that define the path from inner transformation to outer impact: facing your dragons (the shame, addiction, and fear within), chasing your lions (the external threats that demand courage), and taming your wolves (integrating strength and wisdom to belong).This conversation explores why self-actualization isn't the end goal—it's shared-actualization, becoming someone dangerous to darkness and dependable in the light.

Special Guest Paul Pape   https://www.gamifybusiness.com/podcast   Welcome back to another episode of Podcast Profits Unleashed, the show where I help coaches and consultants grow their business and attract premium clients through podcasting—whether you host your own show or want to become that guest who actually gets booked. Today's conversation is a powerful one. I'm joined by Paul P, also known as Santa for Nerds—a coach who helps creative and artistic entrepreneurs finally understand the business side without sacrificing who they are. And if you've ever felt like you “just don't think like a business person,” this episode is going to change everything for you. Paul breaks down why creative entrepreneurs really struggle in business—and it's not what most people assume. He explains how he uses gaming-inspired frameworks, like character sheets and Dungeons & Dragons–style role-play, to transform business into an adventure that makes sense for creative minds. We explore why teams fail when “everyone does everything,” how to build a group that actually supports your strengths, and why emotion—not products—is what truly drives sales. We also dive into the power of storytelling, the importance of vulnerability, and why the most successful entrepreneurs aren't the ones who pretend to be perfect—they're the ones who stay passionate, human, and relatable. Key Takeaways: I discovered why so many creative entrepreneurs fail at business—and it's not because they lack talent. I learned how gaming frameworks can turn intimidating business concepts into something creative brains instantly “get.” I saw how important it is to stop trying to “do everything” and instead build a team (or “pocket people”) that complements—not mirrors—your strengths. I was reminded that passion and storytelling—not perfection—are what truly grow a successful business. I walked away with a new understanding of how to help creatives scale, simplify, and actually enjoy the business side of what they do.   And don't forget to stick around after the break—I'm sharing a quick, actionable tip to help you pitch yourself as a podcast guest and get booked on the shows that matter. This is one episode you're absolutely going to want to take notes on. Connect With Paul Pape:   www.gamifybusiness.com   https://www.youtube.com/paulpapedesigns   https://www.instagram.com/paulpapedesigns/   https://www.facebook.com/paulpapedesigns   https://www.linkedin.com/in/paulericpape   https://www.tiktok.com/@paulpapedesigns SOLO PART So I'm back. I'm breaking down the mindset and strategy behind pitching yourself as a podcast guest—without feeling awkward, salesy, or like you're “too much.” If you've ever stared at a half-written pitch email, overthinking every word, this one's for you. Because I've been there. I vividly remember sitting on a pitch for over 20 minutes, even though I knew I could deliver real value. I respected the host, I loved their show—yet that little voice crept in: Who do you think you are? When I finally hit send, not only did they say yes… they thanked me. And that moment changed everything. So many brilliant coaches and service providers hold themselves back because they're waiting to be chosen. They worry about being pushy, about not having a big enough audience, or about not having the perfect media kit. Meanwhile, podcast hosts like me are actively searching for guests who show up with clarity, care, and a message that truly serves. The biggest shift happened when I stopped asking, Am I good enough to pitch? and started asking, Who needs to hear this right now? Pitching isn't self-promotion—it's contribution. You're not asking for a favour. You're offering value. In this episode, I walk you through exactly how to pitch yourself with confidence: Key Takeaways (from my perspective): The best podcast guests aren't the most famous—they're the most clear. Hosts want value, not hype or long résumés. You don't need a big audience or fancy media kit—just a clear message. Record a short 60-second Loom to personalize your pitch. Make your pitch about them—their show, their audience, their needs. Follow up once, kindly and without pressure. One aligned pitch beats 20 random ones. Your message is meant to be heard. Don't wait to be discovered—take one step this week and pitch yourself with intention.

In episode 128 of Game Design Unboxed, we chat with game designer (publisher, art director, illustrator, and more!) Ammon Anderson about Twinkle, Twinkle, a game born from his lifelong fascination with space. We discuss the origin of the game's gorgeous translucent acrylic tiles, its “out of this world” space themes and expansions, and the new scoring […]

Historian Kevin Impellizeri shares a story of a video game controversy to his friends: Kate Lynch and Matt Shoemaker, whose new book, Gathering of Gamers: Dungeons & Dragons and Other Games Through Gen Con, is available now through Play Story Press (https://playstorypress.org/books/gathering-of-gamers/). If you're interested in the history of North America's largest gaming convention or the history of Dungeons & Dragons, this is the book for you!Matt joins us for the conclusion of our look at Patricia Pulling and her personal war on Dungeons & Dragons during the 1980s. We look at the impact of her message on the news media as well as the growing body of critics who made the radical suggestion that maybe there wasn't a vast network of satanists operated undetected in the United States (shocking, I know) and that maybe Pat was less than up front about her claims.Topics discussed include: how does Geraldo Rivera keep getting work, Richmond's Satanist-Methodist ratio, the question of whether Pat knew her son was turning into a werewolf, and the salacious indiscretions of one of Pat's closest allies.Read Michael Stackpole's Pulling Report here: https://rpgstudies.net/stackpole/pulling_report.html.If you're looking for another well-researched epic takedown of the 1980s Satanic Panic, check out: Robert D.

Wizards of the Coase released new Dungeons & Dragons content, but locked it behind a paywall. Not surprisingly the grognards here are upset. Also we get tales from Christopher and from Kristian about their own campaigns. Lessons to learn are that undead are dangerous in large groups.

The patriarchy, like it does with everything has distorted and inverted the truth about what a true bloodline actually is. We use the term bloodline in current day to usually refer to what we call the “elites” keeping their family lineage “pure”. All of this is inversion as they are not the elites we are, nor are they maintaining any form of purity. But most importantly, the real meaning behind a bloodline has nothing to do with passing on DNA. Bloodlines came from women only because women are the ones who bleed.  If you were in a bloodline, it meant you were in a lineage led by the divine priestesses, dragon, priestesses, healers, women who were in Oneness. The Masters of Self University PODCAST is your highest source of Sacred Truth and Universal Wisdom, offered by Rachel Fiori, mystical teacher, psycho-energetic healer, & CEO.

Brent Axe recaps Syracuse basketball's 80-50 win over Drexel in Philadelphia.  SU went to halftime with just a 5-point lead over Drexel (37-32) and was out-rebounded 19-9 in the first half, but dropped the hammer on the Dragons in the 2nd half, out-scoring Drexel 43-18 and out-rebounding the Dragons 27-20.  Brent also examines what Coach Red Autry should do when JJ Starling returns to the lineup with Kiyan Anthony playing so well in his absence and discusses SU's renewed commitment to defense and how much more watchable and fun the Orange have been so far this season compared to last.  The conversation on Syracuse Sports and our live Syracuse football and basketball postgame shows is always shaped by terrific insight from Syracuse Sports Insiders.  Become a Syracuse Sports Insider today!  Sign up here to get your voice heard on the SU football postgame show and have direct text message access to Brent Axe anytime.  https://joinsubtext.com/syracusesports Learn more about your ad choices.

Esta semana hacemos una RE: seña de los primeros seis números de Free Planet (Image Comics), una historieta con guión de Aubrey Sitterson, arte de Jed Dougherty, color de Vittorio Astone, rotulado de Taylor Esposito, diseño de Mark Kaufman, y producción de Drew Gill. En un futuro lejano, la Tierra está abandonada tras un cataclismo, y la humanidad habita en miles de mundos en el espacio. Una alianza interplanetaria dominada por corporaciones explota los recursos naturales y humanos de los mundos, oprimiéndolos bajo una bota de hierro. Pero un mundo minero, Lutheria, se enancipó, y tras una dura revolución es ahora "el primer planeta libre en la historia humana". Sin embargo, esto es solo el comienzo, porque presiones de varios enemigos, y conflictos internos amenazan con destruir la frágil paz revolucionaria. En este comic seguimos la nueva historia libre de Lutheria a través del día a día de la elite de sus fuerzas militares, la Freedom Guard. Política, filosofía, space opera, y mucho más. Con música de Russkaja, y Mägo de Oz. Próximo programa: Magic Knight Rayearth (Parte II).

Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's last business venture, Pitch@Palace Global, is officially being dissolved — ending his attempt to play royal dragon in a Dragons' Den world.Meanwhile, Sarah Ferguson hides out in her private bar, “The Doghouse,” drowning stress in champagne and fear of eviction from Royal Lodge. Reports claim she's even considering selling private letters from Princess Diana to stay afloat, a move that could ignite royal fury.

Welcome back to another episode of the Peaceful Parenting Podcast. Today's episode is about why you shouldn't do special time, which is, I admit, a little bit of a provocative hook here. But it's something that Corey brought to my attention that we have been talking about a lot. And then after last week's podcast, we both agreed—after the podcast with Joanna and her complex kid—we both agreed we have to talk about this, because this is something that probably a lot of parents are feeling a lot of conflict, guilt, and shame around: not doing special time or not wanting to do special time or not being able to do special time.Sarah: Hey Corey. Welcome back to the podcast. Tell us a little bit about who you are and what you do.Corey: Hi, I am Corey Everett, and I am a trained peaceful parenting coach, and I work for Sarah. I live in Ontario, but I work with clients all over the world doing one-on-one coaching. And I myself am complex and have a complex child. And I have two kids. I never can remember this, but I have a 7-year-old and a 10-year-old.Sarah: I am glad you're not the only one who can't remember their kids' ages. I have to stop and think. Okay. Well, I'm so excited to talk about this. And this is actually something that you and I have talked about over the years, because you have found it really difficult to do special time with your complex kid. Maybe just tell us a little bit about what happened when you tried to do special time and why you eventually sort of gave it up. And, you know, this is something that Joanna in the podcast last week—the coaching podcast—she was talking about how she didn't want to do special time with her kid because she was so exhausted. So I think this is sort of like a two-part: why sometimes special time doesn't work for the kids and why it doesn't work for the parents. So let's start by talking about what happened when you would try to do special time with Big C, who's your 10-year-old.Corey: Okay, so when I would try and do special time with Big C, I actually found—first of all—I didn't really feel very present in it. I felt like I was trying to do it, but I felt like I didn't have a lot of energy for it. I think he could feel that. So I just didn't feel very engaged in it and I just felt exhausted, and it just felt like another thing on my to-do list. And so therefore he didn't necessarily enjoy it as much either.We did do a podcast—it'd be really great, I can put it in the show notes—where we talked about some things for peaceful parenting that aren't working, and I did a really good description in that one of why special time didn't work for him.Sarah: Okay.Corey: And so we can have them listen to that if they want more details on that part. Instead, I think I want to really focus on why it didn't work for me and why I'm finding with my clients it's not working for them either.Sarah: You know what, sorry to interrupt you. I realize we should really just say what special time is, in case—like it's such a gold standard of peaceful parenting—but there could be some parents listening to this, parents or caregivers who are newer to special time and might not know what it is.Special time—and there are, I think, some other brands of parenting that might have other names for it—but basically the gold standard is 15 minutes a day of one-on-one time with you and your child, where you put aside the to-do list, put away your phone, and some people suggest that you set a timer and say, “I'm all yours for the next 15 minutes. What do you want to play?” It's really immersing yourself in the child's world. That's one of the main ideas of special time: that we're immersed in our child's world of pretend play or some kind of play. It can be roughhousing or it can be playing Lego or dolls—something that is really child-centered and child-led.So that is special time. And let's take it from there. You had mentioned already that energetically it was really hard for you.Corey: I think the best way that I can explain this is if I paint the picture for you of what it looks like to be a parent of a complex kid. And—Sarah: Wait let's give a definition of complex—we've got to make sure we're covering the basics here. What's a complex kid?Corey: Okay, so a complex kid. This term, I first heard it from Elaine Taylor-Klaus—and we can also put in the show notes when you had her on the podcast. She is amazing. And basically, we're really often talking about neurodivergent kids here. But it can be more than that. It's just kids who need more.Sarah: It's that 20% of kids that we talk about—the 80% of kids who, you know, you say “Go put your shoes on and wait for me by the door,” and they go and do it and they don't have the extra big feelings. So in my idea of it, it can be neurodivergent and also spirited, sensitive, strong-willed. The kids who are not your average, typical kids. And I always say that when I tell people what I do—parenting coach—some people look at me like, “Why would anyone need a parenting coach?” and other people are like, “Oh, I could have used you when my kids were growing up.”So really there are kids who are—I'm sure they're wonderful—but they're not as more or complex as some other kids.Corey: Kids that you almost don't have to be as intentional about your parenting with.Sarah: Yeah. You don't have to read parenting books or listen to parenting podcasts. I would hazard a guess that most people who listen to this podcast have complex kids.Corey: Yes. They're our people. We always say the people who are our people are the ones who don't have to talk about challenges around putting on shoes.Sarah: I love that.Corey: That seems to be the number one thing we're always talking about.Sarah: We always use that as an example, whether it's sensory or strong-willed or attentional. It is kind of like one of those canary-in-the-coal-mine things. Will your child go and put their shoes on when you ask them to? If the answer is no, you probably have a complex kid.Corey: Yes, I love that it is the canary in the coal mine. So that's what our complex kids are. And for the parents of these kids, I think of these parents as being absolute rock stars. They are just trying so hard to peacefully parent their kids. And, like we said, they're reading all the books, they're listening to this podcast, they've probably signed up for all sorts of online seminars and courses and just do all of the things.Often these parents were not peacefully parented themselves. Most people weren't. So they're learning a whole new parenting style. And a lot of people today are getting all their information off Instagram and TikTok reels that aren't very nuanced, so they're also not getting really full information. They're trying so hard off of all these little sound snippets.Sarah: Or the peaceful parenting or gentle parenting advice that they're being given, and what's supposed to happen just doesn't look like that for their kid. And that reminds me—the other podcast that we did about when peaceful parenting doesn't “work,” we could link to that one too.Corey: Yes. Parents of complex kids are also trying to problem solve so many challenges because the world is often not designed for their kids, and it's often not designed for them.Sarah: Say more about that—about “not designed for their kids.” What's an example of how that might show up?Corey: So an example is conventional schooling. They're expected to go into this noisy environment and just be able to eat the food they've been sent and listen all day and stay in their seats and learn the same way that everyone else is learning. I didn't really realize how complex my kid was until I tried to send him to daycare.Sarah: I was just thinking about the spirit days at Big C's school, and how you've shared with me that those spirit days—like pajama day or “everyone wear the school colors day”—for some typical kids can be exciting and fun and a diversion. And for complex kids that can cause a whole level of stress and anticipation and the change of routine. Other parents of non-complex kids might be like, “Whatever, it's not a big deal.” For our complex kids, it throws them for a loop.Corey: Yes. My first moment of starting to realize there was something I needed to pay more attention to was they were having a movie day at Big C's daycare, and they said he kept covering his ears and hiding. And that was my first idea that every other kid was so excited that it was movie day. They'd been looking forward to it. And for my child it was just so loud, and then suddenly the lights were turned off, and the whole situation was throwing him off.So that's what I mean. We're designing the world for kids who are excited about movie day or special event days. But for complex kids, this is a complete change in their routine and all sorts of different sensory things that are happening that can make it really hard for them.Sarah: Or that they can't handle as much as other kids. I have a client who was just talking about how she's realized for her son, who's nine, that they literally can't do anything after school. They can't stop at the store and run in and grab a few things. They really just have to come straight home and not do anything extra or different. And he does so much better when he can just come home and unwind and needs that.Corey: Yes, exactly. So the world wasn't designed for them. And then consequently, the world was often not designed for those parents either. So many of the people we work with—including ourselves—only start to realize how complex we are once we start identifying it in our children. So it's just not really an accommodated world.Sarah: So talk about how that has led to burnout for you. And by the way, when you started talking about rock stars—in the membership the other day, in office hours, one of our members, I'll call him D, who works incredibly hard and has two very complex kids, was just sharing how dark and hard life had been feeling for him lately. And I said, honestly, I just want to give you a medal. And I grabbed this off my desk and held it up—this silver milagro from Mexico that's a bleeding heart. It was the closest thing I had to a medal.But I really feel like so many parents who have hard or more complex kids, all they feel is that they're doing a bad job. They don't realize that they're up against something other people are not up against. They don't realize that because that's all they know—unless you have one kid that's not complex and one that is—you just don't know that you're working so hard and things are still hard. It feels like you must be doing something wrong or failing. What they don't realize is that you can do everything “right” in peaceful parenting, and things are still really hard if you've got a complex kid.Corey: Yes. And the last thing I want to say to help paint this picture is that these parents—part of what they're dealing with, and I actually think this is huge—all parents today have a huge amount of family admin: managing appointments and things from the school and all those kinds of things. But that's this other crushing weight we're carrying as parents with complex kids: the admin.Sarah: Right.Corey: The amount of communication we have to do with daycare providers and teachers almost every day at points—Sarah: And also the searching. I've watched you go through this, and I watched my sister go through this, and countless clients. The searching to try to figure out what exactly is going on with my kid so that I can best support them. And even with the privilege you have and my sister has in terms of being able to access specialists and testing and all of that—even with that privilege—it's still almost a full-time job. And then getting the OT or the supports too.Corey: Yes. I started for this podcast listing some of the people I've had to coordinate with over the years, and I was like: different types of medical doctors, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, psychologists, social workers, dieticians… so many. And just so much coordinating and searching. And the other thing that's hard is you also then have homework from each of these people. So not only do you have to make appointments and get your children to appointments, you then have to fill out all this paperwork to get reimbursed or get payment sorted. Then there's all the paperwork they want you to sign for ongoing parts of that. Then they have homework for the kids that they're supposed to be doing all the time to help them with whatever's going on. It's endless.Sarah: Yeah. And then there's the day-to-day. Tell us—paint a little picture of the day-to-day living. Not only do we have the world that isn't built for them or for you, and then all of the extra stuff that goes along with having a complex kid, but then the day-to-day life. Speak to that a little bit.Corey: Yeah. I think that's the thing you just see is so painful to talk about for all the people in our membership and our clients, and I've experienced it firsthand. You had children to add love to your family. And then you love them so much and you're struggling because there's chronic dysregulation, and they're having such a hard time getting through your daily routines, and they need more supervision than the average child does. Just getting through the day can be really challenging when you have a complex kid. And then if you yourself are complex, your nervous system is getting completely overwhelmed by trying to be the calm for everyone's storms.Sarah: It's a lot, Corey. I understand why you get emotional about it. It's a lot. And you're still in the thick of it with two young kids. I think everyone who's listening to this can relate.Okay. So how and when did you decide that you were going to quit special time, and what does that look like? And—I just want to center us here—the reason why we do special time is for connection, right? Complex kids need connection just as much or more than typical kids. And so just because we're saying you might want to quit special time, it does not mean we're saying you want to quit connection. So what does that look like? What have you found? Because I know you're super connected with your kids. I've seen you together. I know the things they say to you and about you, and that you have an awesome connection. So what do you do for connection when special time does not work?Corey: A big thing that I've been telling clients and that I've done in my life is—first of all, I had to acknowledge to myself, it felt like shame. Because here I am—it's one of the first things we tell everyone we work with: “Are you getting one-on-one time doing special time with your child?” And then I'm sitting there being like, but I don't really do this. I get a ton of one-on-one time with my children. And I think that's at the heart of it. But what I realized is because we're carrying all those weights we talked about, your whole life feels like it's all about this kid. And then to be like, “You know what? Let's make it more about you and give you another 15 minutes,” just feels—I almost felt like I don't have this in me.So I realized: let's pick things that we can do together that are interesting for both them and me. Instead of getting locked in their play and being led by them, I'm finding things that we're co-creating together.Sarah: And can I just note too that you've told me—and I know you said you talked about this in another podcast—but I just want to say it again: a lot of times complex kids' play doesn't look like typical kids' play. So you might be like, “What do you want to play?” and they're like, “I don't know.” They don't have the same kind of “Okay, let's play store and you be this and I'll be this.” Or they play with their toys in a different manner. So it can also be just awkward to insist that you play with them when that's not their style anyway. I just wanted to throw that out there.Corey: Yeah. And, or if I did, they're always telling me I'm doing everything wrong.Sarah: Right. Because I do think that play—I do think that for most kids, even though we're saying don't do special time—I do think that for most kids it is important to put yourself in their world. And I don't want people to think, like, “Okay, this means I never have to try to do special time.” We're just saying if it's not working for you for these various reasons—whether it's because of your own constraints like it was for Joanna, or because it doesn't work for your kid—it doesn't mean that you're doing it wrong and that there's no way to connect and that you should just give up.But I do think that—just a side note—I'd say the majority of kids, play in their world is the key to a lot of connection. But for some complex kids, that just isn't their mode. For some of them.Corey: Yeah. Because I think we were coming out of special time feeling angry.Sarah: Right?Corey: Because we were coming out of it like, “I'm trying to get lost in my child's world,” and he's just like, “You're not doing anything right, Mommy.” It was frustrating for him because he had these ideas and he couldn't really get me to do it right. And I think for some kids that can be really empowering, where they like that feeling of being in control and telling them. But for him it was frustrating because he's like, “I had this vision, and you are just not executing.” I'm like, “I don't know, I'm trying to execute your vision.” So I think that's why for us, I could just tell it wasn't just me—neither of us were finding it was working.Sarah: But—Corey: We were desperately wanting to be together.Sarah: Okay. So you said “finding,” right? I interrupted you when you were talking about finding things that were co-interests—things that work for both of you, co-creating.Corey: Yes. When they were younger, one of the big things I did was buy myself really special pencil crayons and nice watercolor paints because both of them loved doing art. So I could sit and do art with them and use my fancy coloring books and feel very “we are together doing something” that was making me feel really good, but they also felt really happy, and they loved showing me what they were making.Sarah: And did you let them use your stuff? Because I think that would be really hard for me, because you can't really be like, “These are my special things, and you use these Crayola ones.” How did you navigate that?Corey: Okay, so that was really hard. This never would work for my husband, so I'm going to acknowledge for some people this wouldn't work. I let them grab my crayons, and they dropped them a lot. I acknowledged that they were not going to last. But I still wanted good ones available to me. So I had to be flexible. They definitely grabbed them, and the watercolors were wrecked really quickly. But they respected not touching my special brushes for some reason. So I kept my own special brushes for the painting.Sarah: You know, that reminds me—one of our members has a just-newly-3-year-old who's super complex, and she was talking about how she was doing a jigsaw puzzle, like a proper adult thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle. And she was really worried that—since it was on the table in a room where the parents could be—her kid was just going to come in and wreck it. Instead, her child is really good at jigsaw puzzles and is doing them with her. So I think sometimes—she's totally shocked and thrilled that this has become something—and this is clearly a case of coming into the adult world of a thousand-piece jigsaw puzzle. You just reminded me—she put a post in our Facebook group about how… I don't know, did you see that post?Corey: Yeah, I did.Sarah: About how wonderful it's been to have her just-turned-3-year-old do these adult jigsaw puzzles with her. So that's a perfect example of what you're talking about, I think.Corey: I think it's—so I love what you're saying here, because we're always told “go into their world,” but there's something really powerful about letting them into yours. I didn't actually realize that's what I was doing—I've been bringing them into my world with me, and then they feel really special being allowed in there with me. And so it creates this really beautiful thing, but I'm flexible about letting them in there, knowing it's going to look different.Sarah: Right. What are some other things that you've done besides art that might be inspiring?Corey: I realized a long time ago I had to let go of the idea that I needed to read really interesting books to my kids so that every night we could look forward to reading beautiful stories that drew me in. We actually realized bedtime has started getting hard again, and we realized it's because we're in between books. So that is something—and a shout-out to my mom; she's really good at researching books—she's come up with some really cool books that have really diverse characters and really interesting stories. That's been another really important thing: don't just read. I've picked really good books that draw me in.And so last night we actually just started a favorite series of mine. I kid you not, I'm reading to my 10-year-old a feminist fantasy book that I read when I was a tween. It's called Dealing with Dragons, and he actually is loving it.Sarah: Nice. So you're saying—maybe you misspoke—you said you had to give up on reading books that you… beautiful books that you liked. But did you mean that you were finding beautiful books that you liked?Corey: Yeah, sorry, that's—earlier on I felt like I was just reading, you know, books that I thought they would like.Sarah: Oh, okay.Corey: But instead I was like, “The heck with that,” and I found books that I loved, and I started reading those to my kids. And then they loved them. And then that really got us so excited about bedtime.Sarah: Great, great.Corey: We got through it, and we would read that together, and it became—I actually think reading books that I love to my kids has become one of the most important special times that we have each day.Sarah: So another co-creating—something that's interesting to both of you. And it's not necessarily going into their world and reading the Captain Underpants or something that they might like that you find mind-numbingly boring. And maybe Captain Underpants isn't boring—I've never read it—but I'm just using that as an example.Corey: That's a perfect example. So it's like, here, I'm providing those books for them to read to themselves for their reading time. Absolutely—read all the Captain Underpants, the Dog Man you would like. But my goodness, when I'm reading to you, I'm picking something. And look, we've abandoned lots of books that we started reading that they couldn't get into. We keep—we just keep trying.Sarah: Okay. What else—what else is next?Corey: Exercise.Sarah: Okay.Corey: I've realized exercise for me is the number one way for me to deal with stress. Of all things, I need to exercise to help manage stress. And it's very hard to fit in exercise when you have complex kids. So from the time they were little, we've been very flexible about how we've done it. But my husband and I have—once again, instead of picking things they're naturally into (this is starting to sound really funny)—we just brought them into our exercise with us, and they love it. From the time they were little, we had a balance bike for my littlest guy. He was on that balance bike, and we were riding bikes together.So my littlest one ended up being able to ride a regular bike before he was three.Sarah: Same with Maxine. Those balance bikes are amazing. She just—yeah. It's crazy.Corey: Yeah. And sometimes—Sarah: Sometimes you're like, “What have I done?” The 3-year-old is riding off.Corey: It's true. It was unbelievable, though. So we just rode our bikes together. From the time ours were very little, we had them as little guys on—you can get an attachment to your bike—and my husband put them on his road bike with him and would take them for rides on his road bike.Sarah: There's also the trailer bike too, which we had, which is good.Corey: So we did that. We had our youngest on skis when he was two. COVID kind of interrupted some of that, but now we ski every weekend with our kids, and we decided to do that instead of putting them into organized sports so that we would all be doing it together.Sarah: Oh, I love that. Instead of dropping them off and they're playing soccer, you're all doing stuff together.Corey: Yes.Sarah: I mean, and you could—and, you know, for other families—you could just go and kick the ball. Or I always say, chase your kids around the playground if you feel like you don't have time to exercise but you need to. It can be that simple, right? Kicking the ball around, chasing them around the playground—get some exercise and have some connection time too.Corey: Yeah. One of the ways we got our one son kind of good at running is taking the kite to the park, and we just ran around with the kite. But we started even going to—and I advised another family to do this—going to a track together, because it's a contained area where everyone could run at different speeds. And the really little ones were playing on the inside of the track with soccer balls and things like that, and then everyone else could be running around the track.Sarah: Love it.Corey: So getting really creative about literally bringing them into our world of things that we love, and then connecting deeply. And it's one of those things where it's an investment you make over time. It starts small, and you have to be really flexible. And there are these little hands grabbing all your fancy pencil crayons, and you're having to deal with it. And then one day you're sitting beside them, and they're using them themselves—drawing works of art.Sarah: Yeah, yeah.Corey: And it's happening now where my older son and I have been going for runs together around the neighborhood, and we have the best talks ever because I'm sideways listening. We should talk about sideways listening, actually.Sarah: Okay.Corey: So I learned about this from you. You have a great article—I recommend it to everyone—it's called “Staying Close to Your Tweens and Teens,” and that's where you talk about how it's actually easier for people, I think, to have important conversations when you're side to side, because it's not that intensity of looking at each other's faces. This is extra true for neurodivergent people who sometimes have a hard time with eye contact and talking in that way. So we go for these runs together all around our neighborhood, and I hear everything from my son during that time because we're side by side. So it's become special time, where it started when I taught him to come into my world with the track running and all the different things, and now that we're running, he's bringing me into his world.Sarah: Love it. Do you find that a lot of complex kids have special interests—do you find that there's a way that you can connect with them over their special interest? Does that feel connecting to you if it's not something—like, I'm literally just curious about that.Corey: I think that can be tricky, but I do think it's very important. I've learned that I was having a hard time with how much my kids loved video games because I've never liked video games. And, you know, as someone with ADHD, it's so hard to focus on things that I don't find interesting. And I realized that I've spent all this time cultivating bringing them into my world, and we've gotten to such a beautiful, connected space that I do need to go into theirs. And now that they're older, I'm finding it is easier to go into their world, because we're not trying to make some sort of play thing happen that wasn't natural.Sarah: Right.Corey: So I have been making a point now of—I've sat down and been like, “Show me how to play. I'm a beginner. Teach me how to do this.” And I've been playing video games with them. I'm so bad.Sarah: You know, in our podcast with Scott Novus about how to stop fighting with your kids about video games, he says how good it is for kids to see you be bad at something.Corey: They're seeing it.Sarah: I love that.Corey: I'm so bad. I cannot even a little bit. So they find it very funny. I've been playing with them and letting them talk to me about it, and I've found that's been really important too. Because I keep on saying, “Do you see why they love this so much?” And I'm kind of like, yes—and I see what skills you're learning now that I've tried it. It takes so much skill and practice to be good at these complex video games on the Switch and on the PlayStation. So I am learning a lot, and I feel like we are shifting now, where I found a way to connect with them by bringing them along with what I was into, and now that they're older, we are switching where I'm able to go back into their world.Sarah: Right. Love it. So we also—you know, I think delighting is something that probably you still do, and we always talk about that as the low-hanging fruit. If you can't do special time or it doesn't work for you, delighting in your child throughout the day—letting the love that you feel in your heart show on your face, right? And then finally, you talked about using routine—the things that you do throughout the day—as connection. Can you talk about that a little bit before we go?Corey: Yes. So this is where long-time listeners of our podcast know that although special time is a big fail for us, I'm really good at being silly with my kids. Really good at being silly. And I'm very inspired listening to Mia from Playful Heart—Playful Heart Parenting. I think I told you, listening to her talk, it was like the first time I heard someone talking about exactly how I do playful parenting. And it's just injecting play and silliness and drama throughout your everyday things you're doing together. And so we do that all the time to get through the schedule. Especially now, my 10-year-old is starting to act a little too cool for some of this, but it's still really happening with my 7-year-old, where we're always singing weird songs about what we're doing, and I'll take on weird accents and be my characters. I'm not going to demonstrate them here—it's far too embarrassing—but I still have my long-running characters I can't get over.Sarah: You've got, like, the dental hygienist—what's her name?Corey: Karen. Karen the dental hygienist.Sarah: What's the bus driver's name?Corey: I have Brett the bus driver. We have “Deep Breath,” who's like a yogi who comes in when everyone needs to take deep breaths. There's—oh, her name's So? I'm not sure why. So is the dresser who's really serious and doesn't know how to smile. So if my kids ever need help—this has also been a big way that I delight in them, I think—if they ever need help getting dressed (which complex kids need help getting dressed for a long—)Sarah: And even body doubling when they don't need help getting dressed, right?Corey: Yes. So I would always pretend to be a dresser who was sent in to get them dressed in their clothes, and they didn't know how to smile. So they're always trying to teach me how to smile when I'm keeping a serious face. And actually, recently I was doing this and I was having such a hard time not laughing that my lips started visibly quivering trying not to smile and laugh.Sarah: I love that.Corey: I think it was the hardest I've ever seen my 7-year-old laugh. He was on the floor laughing because I was like—Sarah: And for anyone who this sounds hard for—just, you know, it takes practice, and anyone, I think, can learn to be playful. And I love Mia's account—we'll link to that in the show notes. I love Mia's account for ideas just to get you started, because I know you—you're a drama kid. I'm not. But I still found ways to get playful even though it's not my natural instinct. And so you can—this way of getting playful and connecting through the day and through your daily routine—you can do that. It'll take maybe a little practice; you might feel funny at first. But I think it's possible for everyone to do that.So thank you so much. We have to wrap up, but I also want to point out that anyone who wants to connect with you, reach out to us. Corey's available for coaching. She's a wonderful coach. And I have people who specifically ask for Corey because they can relate to Corey's experience as a parent of complex kids. And so, on our website, reimaginepeacefulparenting.com, there is a booking link for a free short consult or for a coaching session. We'll also put that in the show notes. So if you want some more support, please reach out to us. Either of us are here and want to help you.And, Corey, thank you for your honesty and vulnerability—vulnerability about being a parent of a complex kid and sharing how you can do that connection, even if it feels like special time is just too hard and something that doesn't work for you or for your kid. And thanks to Joanna for also inspiring us to get this out there to you all.Corey, before I let you go, I'm going to ask the question I ask all my guests, which is: what would you tell your—you had a time machine and you could go back in time—what would you tell your younger parent self?Corey: Okay.Sarah: About parenting? What do you wish you knew?Corey: I think what I wish I knew—I think this is easier than I thought it would be, because I just told my best friend who just had a baby this—and it's: trust your intuition. I think I spent so much time looking for answers outside of myself, and I could feel they weren't right for my kid or for me, that I was so confused because other people were telling me, “This is what you should be doing.” And the more I've learned to trust my gut instinct and just connect deeply—and this special time example is perfect—I knew it wasn't working for us, and I intuitively knew other ways to do it. And I wish I could have just trusted that earlier.Sarah: And stopped doing it sooner and just gone with the other connection ideas. Yeah. Thank you so much, Corey. This has been so great. And, again, we'll put the link to anyone who wants to book a free short consult or coaching session, and also to our membership, which you've heard us mention a few times, which is just a wonderful space on the internet for people who want some community and support with their complex kid.Thanks, Corey.Corey: Thank you.>> Please support us!!!

In The Light of Tyve campaign, darkness is born from the light, and it is often better to survive as the villain than live as a hero.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠WATCH LIVE:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Watch Roll Seekers live at⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠twitch.tv/rollseekers⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ALL LINKS:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Check out our⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Linktr.ee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SHOP:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Shop for Roll Seekers merchandise at⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠rollseekers.com/shop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.LISTEN TO THE STREAM:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Anchor⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Music⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠•⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Google Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠CONNECT WITH US:Join our⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Discord⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.FOLLOW US:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Website⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠U.S. Shop⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Twitch⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ •⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠SUPPORT US:Support the stream on⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.HASHTAGS#RollSeekers #DnD #DungeonsandDragons #ActualPlay

This week the guys talk about the new Dungeons & Dragons 5.5 book, Adventures in Faerun. It's an adventure for sure talking about it. Also Dan gets to tell a tale about how to fight black oozes with lightning.

In this episode, we're joined by Kristianna Moralls, founder of the Self-Determination Institute and parent of a young adult with disabilities. She shares the real-world impact of self-determination, sometimes called self-direction or consumer-directed services, a model that lets individuals and families make their own decisions about who provides their care and how.Kristianna explains how her son's transition out of school revealed the “drop-off” many families face when traditional services end and meaningful support suddenly disappears. Discovering self-determination gave her family the ability to hire caregivers who fit her son's life, choose meaningful activities like community college and Dungeons & Dragons nights, and build supports around his goals and personality rather than a rigid system.Key themes explored:Self-direction as a civil rights movement: autonomy, choice, and dignity for people with disabilitiesThe drop-off after high school: why so many families feel abandoned when services shiftCost-effectiveness with better results: families often pay caregivers more while saving public dollars by cutting agency overheadAdministrative reality: empowerment comes with responsibility, and many families need support learning to recruit, hire, budget, and manage care plansRole of FMS providers and technology: the right Financial Management Service and the right tools can make budgeting, staffing, and compliance manageable instead of overwhelmingCalifornia's leadership: a robust and flexible program model other states are expanding towardKristianna also shares how the Self-Determination Institute supports families with training and advocacy, and why collaboration between families, FMS providers, technology platforms, and regional centers is essential for scaling self-directed services nationwide.The big message: Self-direction works. It honors people's abilities, supports independence, strengthens families, and builds more inclusive communities. And yes, it saves money too. When people have the freedom to choose, everyone wins.Home Care Heroes and Day Service Stars is produced and sponsored by Ankota - If you provide services that enable older or disabled people to continue living at home , Ankota can provide you the software to successfully run your agency.
