I'm joined by Justin Brierley, journalist, author, and Christian apologist—and we're diving into how we as parents can guide our kids through some of life's biggest questions about faith, doubt, and belief.Here's what you'll hear in today's conversation:Helping kids ask honest questions about God and faith builds a stronger foundation for lasting belief.Topics like the resurrection, suffering, and science can be discussed in age-appropriate and meaningful ways.How we respond to questions is just as important as the answers we give—gentleness builds trust.Sharing your personal faith and doubts can create a safe space for kids to explore theirs.Justin Brierley is a UK-based journalist, speaker, and author who has spent years hosting thoughtful conversations around faith and skepticism. His book, Why I'm Still a Christian, explains why he still has faith in Jesus after conversations with skeptics and atheists all across the world. And his book, The Surprising Rebirth of Belief in God, explores how faith is making a comeback in surprising ways. Justin is passionate about equipping parents to walk alongside their kids through questions of belief with wisdom and compassion.Whether your child is full of curiosity or facing doubt, this episode offers the tools and encouragement to walk that road together with faith, honesty, and grace.(03:02) Engaging Skeptics: Convincing Arguments for God's Existence(05:54) The Historical Evidence of the Resurrection(15:01) Addressing the Problem of Suffering(24:09) God's Response to Suffering and the Hope of Redemption(25:05) Understanding Suffering Through Faith(26:36) Navigating Children's Questions on Suffering(29:58) Engaging with Skeptical Teens(32:11) Using Science to Explain Faith(37:17) Embracing Imperfection in ParentingResources MentionedMoms, Dads, and Grads Gift Guidehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy6kaDaeDT8Why I'm Still a Christian bookConnect with JustinJustin Brierley's websiteSurprising Rebirth podcastJustin's YouTubeThe Christian Parenting Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

Welcome to the Triple P Life Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Jay LaGuardia dives deep into the mindset challenges that prevent many of us from achieving our goals. A third of the way through the year, Dr. Jay addresses why some people are on track with their goals while others continue to struggle despite their best efforts. He reveals three common subconscious beliefs that sabotage success and shares a practical six-step process to identify and overcome these limiting beliefs. Dr. Jay vulnerably shares his own personal journey of overcoming childhood trauma, anger issues, and fear of abandonment, demonstrating how these early experiences created limiting beliefs that nearly cost him everything he valued. Through this authentic storytelling, he illustrates how our early programming continues to affect our adult behaviors until we consciously work to change these patterns. What You'll Learn: How your subconscious mind operates: Your subconscious is programmed between ages 3-9 and controls 90% of your daily life through habitual patterns. The three limiting beliefs that sabotage success: "Children should be seen and not heard" - creating fear of visibility and judgment "If I'm not perfect, I'll be punished" - leading to anxiety, overthinking, and underexecution "I have to do everything myself" - causing burnout, overwhelm, and inability to scale A six-step process to overcome any limiting belief: Identify and challenge the root belief Reframe your narrative Install new subconscious patterns through affirmations, visualization, and meditation Process emotions through journaling and release Reprogram through new experiences and support Anchor your new identity through consistent action The power of vulnerability: True healing and growth require honest self-examination and willingness to be vulnerable. How to rewire your brain: Practical techniques including box breathing (4-4-4-4), affirmations, visualization, and deliberate imperfection. The importance of self-acceptance: Your self-worth isn't tied to others' opinions or your performance. How to practice delegation: Starting with small tasks to build trust and gradually release control. Dr. Jay offers a compelling perspective on why some people achieve remarkable success while others remain stuck in patterns of frustration despite having the same 1,440 minutes each day. The difference lies in mastering your mindset rather than letting it master you. If you're ready to break free from limiting beliefs, implement the six-step brain rewiring process, and finally achieve the success you deserve, this episode provides the roadmap you need to get started.

Our special guest on this episode is Vania Valtriani, a Brazilian now living in Utah. 10 years ago she suffered a stroke and had a profound near death experience (NDE).During her NDE she saw her father who had passed away 16 years prior. He looked young like he looked when she was 7 or 8 years old. She felt good, she felt peace, and she felt her father's love for her as he opened his arms and said, "daughter."She saw her body on the hospital bed and the medical staff working on it. At one point she felt cold, afraid and alone. Then everything changed as she found Jesus beside her. She describes His amazing eyes. He took her hands and three times said, "Everything will be alright."Vania's life has changed since the NDE. She feels her mission is to share her story with everyone she possibly can. "He is real. He is alive. His love doesn't change, no matter what we do."Please share this beautiful story with someone you love!Chapters:00:00 Introduction to Vania Valtriani02:49 The Stroke Experience09:27 Near-Death Experience and Awakening16:10 Memories of Love and Fear23:23 The Mission to Share28:15 Reflections on Jesus and Love37:22 Embracing Imperfection and Growth40:47 Fear of Death and Embracing Life41:29 RTD Outro Video.mp4.___________________.Video version of this podcast: https://youtu.be/KSveIzlXG-MRoundTripDeath.comDonate to this podcast: https://www.roundtripdeath.com/support/Vania's Book: https://www.amazon.com/Jesus-Me-My-oldest-friendship/dp/B0DRD6P5CM

Do you struggle with feeling like you're stuck in chronic fight or flight?Do you have chronic health issues, and you've heard that your gut health may be linked to your nervous system dysregulation (and vice versa), but you don't know where to start or what will actually work to heal your nervous system?Do you worry that trauma may be behind your chronic illness or chronic health issues, but despite trying dozens of mind body therapies or exercises, you feel like you've made little to no progress in healing your nervous system?If you said yes to any of these questions, then this episode is for you.On today's episode, we're continuing Part 3 of our Brain-Gut Axis Series with Dr. Julia Colangelo, a professor of mindfulness at Columbia University, and a fellow traveler on thid mind-body healing journey.Today, Dr. Julia is going to reveal some AMAZING tips and rarely-talked-about information on WHY trying to regulate your nervous system hasn't created the change or healing you've been looking for - and maybe has even added stress or confusion to your healing journey.Dr. Julia Colangelo is an award-winning educator, speaker, and research on flow - a state of mindfulness that is different than just meditating, and doesn't require you to feel peaceful at all times. As an educator and flow researcher, Julia advises and coaches visionaries, global leaders, public figures, and celebrities. Julia lives on Maui with her little family, and travels globally to speak and consult on mindfulness, flow, creativity, and nervous system regulation and expansion.Dr. Julia trains at companies like LinkedIn, Convene, and more. Her work has been featured in Glamour Magazine, The Washington Post, & The Huffington Post. Julia hosts private retreats, events and coaching experiences that are innovative, fun, and integrate flow strategies and self-awareness exercises for sustainable creativity and alignment personally and professionally.Dr. Julia launched The Flow Brain which teaches nervous system regulation to enter a flow state through nature and neuroscience and encourages a transformative approach to self-healing by entering sustainable flow states.If you've been frustrated with finding the same advice on nervous system regulation online, if you feel like all your problems are in your nervous system (but you can't figure out how to unlock it from it's state of fight and flight), or if you've avoided the topic of nervous system regulation because of feelings of shame or overwhelm around it - then I hope that listening to Dr. Julia today is a breath of FRESH air that breaths into your soul and unlocks new growth and feelings of freedom for you - in both your mind and body.

Ever felt awkward in a meeting, on stage, or in a tough conversation? What if that discomfort wasn't a weakness—but an advantage? In this episode of Leveraging Thought Leadership, Peter sits down with workplace performance expert Henna Pryor, author of Good Awkward, to explore the hidden power of social discomfort. Henna breaks down why avoiding awkward moments only makes them worse—and how embracing them can lead to stronger communication, better leadership, and a more resilient mindset. They discuss why so many leaders fear saying the wrong thing (especially in today's hyper-visible world), how the "spotlight effect" distorts our self-perception, and why placing small bets is the key to building a thought leadership platform. Henna also shares her journey from finance to executive coaching to keynote speaking—proving that growth often comes from stepping into discomfort. This conversation will change the way you think about awkwardness—and might just help you unlock your next big leadership breakthrough. Three Key Takeaways: • Avoiding Awkwardness Makes It Worse – Awkward moments happen to everyone, but dodging them only amplifies the discomfort. Acknowledging and embracing these moments can make you appear more confident and authentic. • Small Bets Lead to Big Wins – Instead of making massive, risky moves, successful thought leaders test ideas by placing small bets—through LinkedIn posts, speaking engagements, or content experiments—to see what resonates before doubling down. • Your Perceived Failures Matter Less Than You Think – The "spotlight effect" tricks us into believing people notice our mistakes more than they actually do. In reality, most people quickly move on—so stop overanalyzing and keep moving forward. Awkward moments often come from misspeaking or making mistakes. Just as Henna Pryor suggests addressing the awkward head-on, Priya Nalkur encourages leaders to embrace imperfection. Both perspectives highlight the power of authenticity and resilience in leadership. If you want to learn how to turn your perceived flaws or failures into strengths, don't miss this episode 554 - Embracing Imperfection!

In this episode I pull back the curtain on the silent dream-killer that's sabotaging your success – the all-or-nothing mentality. If you've ever abandoned your goals at the first sign of imperfection, this episode might just change everything. What You'll Discover: Why your perfectionism isn't a badge of honor but a scientifically proven trap that's heightened anxiety in women by 33% over the last three decades The neurological reason your brain convinces you that doing nothing is better than doing something imperfectly My personal confessions of how perfectionism nearly derailed my own path until I discovered the "all-or-something" approach Why high-achievers are particularly vulnerable to this mental trap (and the UC Berkeley research proving perfectionists actually accomplish LESS) The "Broken Phone Fallacy" that exposes how irrational our perfectionist thinking truly is Why This Matters Now: In a world that glamorizes hustle culture and Instagram-perfect lives, I'm offering a radical alternative backed by research from Stanford's Behavior Design Lab: consistent imperfection beats sporadic perfection every single time. Dr. Barry Schwartz's groundbreaking work reveals that "satisficers" (those who accept "good enough") report significantly higher happiness levels than "maximizers" who endlessly chase perfection. I break down exactly how to apply this research to your real life – whether you're struggling with fitness goals, career advancement, or simply cleaning out that chaotic closet. You'll walk away with a revolutionary mental framework that liberates you from the perfectionist prison: comparing your "something" option to your "nothing" option instead of your idealized "all" option. This isn't just motivational fluff. It's neuroscience. It's behavioral psychology. And it's the exact mindset shift that's helped me and my clients finally build momentum toward our most meaningful goals.  Because 20% effort is infinitely better than 0% – 100% of the time.

Episode Overview Have you ever felt like your imperfections disqualify you from making a difference? Like no matter how hard you try, you're just not “good enough” to do what God has called you to do? Trust me, you're not alone. In this podcast, we're diving into how happiness and hardship can coexist. I'll be sharing personal stories about faith, lessons from the Doctrine and Covenants, and what I've learned from both my own struggles and the experiences of Joseph Smith. Let's be real—none of us are perfect. We all need a Savior, and that's the beauty of it. Together, we'll talk about repentance, humility, and growth, and how we can embrace our flaws while still showing up and serving in our homes, communities, and church callings. If you've ever wondered whether you're still chosen and called to do good work—even in your imperfections—this conversation is for you. I hope you'll tune in!

You're listening to Voices of Your Village, and today I get to hang out with Kate Hamilton. She is married to Charlie since 2000 and is a mother of two young adult men who are independent, confident, and productive college students. Some might say she's an unlikely writer because of her dyslexia, yet her life experiences compelled her to write The Imperfect Parent: A Nonjudgmental Guide to Raising Children in the Modern World. She earned an MBA in international business and is a former corporate executive turned mother and entrepreneur. When Kate is not coaching parents and their children, you'll find her volunteering with Lemonade Day, a youth entrepreneur program, planning the next family adventure, or working with Charlie in San Juan, Puerto Rico. It was fun to chat with Kate because we know that perfection is not the goal. I also really enjoyed this breakdown with Rach, and you get to hear some of my real -time takeaways where Rach was helping me understand some guilt that I've been experiencing as a parent and really diving into like what's coming up for me there. I also just always feel so seen in how Rach responds to me in the moment. So I hope you enjoy the breakdown of this bad boy as well.

Parenting can be a whirlwind of chaos and imperfections, but sometimes, it's in those messy moments that growth and learning truly happens. In this episode of Parenting Impossible, Annette Hines speaks with children's author, Cynthia Di Filippo Elomaa. Cynthia embraces imperfection and chaos in parenting, emphasizing that seeking support and tailored assistance is essential while recognizing that each child learns at their own unique pace. Her inclusive educational book series, "Nikki's Very Messy Room," centers on planning, collaboration, and involving children in chores to foster responsibility and ownership, all of which challenges traditional notions of order and perfection by celebrating the natural, messy rhythms of family life.   In this episode, you will hear: Why involving children in planning is important. Why seeking support and asking for help is essential in parenting. What activities can be provided to engage children in learning independently. How interactive reading experiences benefit children. Why it is important to understand that not every child learns at the same pace.
