In this episode, the Vallottons share some insights after their recent experience when Jason handled solo parenting for six days while Lauren was away. Families can set themselves up for success during these times by paying attention to the following categories and planning ahead!Prep for Leaving:Ask the Right Questions: Before you leave, ask your partner if there's anything specific they would love you to do or set up. It's important to know their actual needs versus what you think might help. Babysitters and Meals: Arrange for babysitters and meal planning in advance to reduce the stress on your partner.Household Tasks: Take care of essential household tasks before leaving to ensure a smooth operation while you're away.Lists: Create a list of important information, but don't be surprised if it's not needed.Packing: Don't wait until the last minute to pack. Being prepared ahead of time reduces stress for everyone.Setting the Kids Up for Success:Thoughtful Gestures: Find ways to help the kids feel connected while you're gone.FaceTime Flexibility: Don't force FaceTime calls if the kids are not in the right mood. It's better to have quality conversations when everyone is in a good place.Routine Maintenance: Keep the kids' routine as consistent as possible, even when one parent is away. This helps provide stability.Activity Planning: Make a plan for fun activities the kids will enjoy.Couples Connect:Virtual Dates: It's possible to have an intimate date via FaceTime. Set aside time to connect as a couple even when apart.Processing Time: Allow each other time to process the separation and share feelings, even while apart.Small Touchpoints: Send small, thoughtful messages or texts to stay connected throughout the day.Think About Re-Entry Ahead of Time:Itinerary Planning: Consider your return itinerary based on your needs and those of the family.Expectation Management: Acknowledge that being away is not always a vacation. Coming home might not mean feeling refreshed. Plan accordingly to accommodate both partners' needs.Physical Intimacy: It's important to discuss and manage expectations about sex when returning from a trip.Re-entry Stress: Talk as a couple about potential re-entry stress and how to mitigate it.

As the melodies of life play their complex harmonies, we sometimes find ourselves tracing the origins of our tune. That's precisely what we uncover with the compassionate and creative Bonnie Lyn Paige in a new season of Cashflows. Bonnie, adopted at just two days old, shares her story with the kind of openness that draws you into the very heart of her childhood, resonating with the sounds of violin strings and the nurturing environment provided by her adoptive parents in Edmond, Oklahoma. It's a narrative rich with the love of a family that chose her and the animals that surrounded her growing up on an urban farm—a testament to the life-affirming power of adoption.Yet every story has its silences, its unplayed notes. Bonnie bravely prepares to fill hers by reaching out to her birth family, a group of people she knows of but has yet to meet. Her journey is punctuated by the crafting of a musical composition, aptly named "Hope," which serves as a bridge between her past and potential future. As she shares this part of her journey, we're reminded of the vibrations that connect us all—the support of her adoptive parents, the embrace of her boyfriend's family, and the anticipation of new additions to her family, both human and four-legged. It's a narrative that speaks to the courage needed to explore our roots and the unyielding strength found in the families we make along the way.To close our heartfelt exchange, we reflect on the importance and challenge of forgiveness, the act of releasing past grievances to foster personal growth and deeper peace. With Bonnie's story and my own insights as a backdrop, we invite you to consider the bridges you can build in your life by letting go of the heavy stones of resentment. Join us for this episode of Cashflows for an exploration of the music that is family, adoption, and the healing journey toward hope and connection.Chapters:0:00 Adoption and Musical Journey With Bonnie13:00 Exploring Family Connections and Hope19:07 The Journey of Adoption and Discovery34:43 Forgive and Let GoMusic commissioned by Bonnie Lyn PaigeComposed and Performed by Brianna GaitherCello by Andrea SoltaniMFP - My Financial PlanManage all assets securely with My Financial Plan's tools and daily updates.Produced by Kenneth Baucum PhotographyBoost your business with our expert photo, video, and audio production services.Tulsa Business Owners Networking GroupJoin Tulsa B.O.N.G. for vibrant local business networking online and in-person meetups.Signage by CM CustomsExplore CM Customs for unique, affordable gifts and branding solutions.Recorded at Elevate CoworkingElevate Coworking: Where local business owners connect, collaborate, and grow.

When life pirouettes between joy and despair, how do we catch our breath and find the courage to dance on? Our effervescent guest, Ohemaa Han—better known as Ohemaa Blondie—joins us to share her symphony of truths about navigating life's relentless ballet. With the same verve she brought to reinventing her look post-motherhood, Ohemaa waltses us through her bold transformation, cheered on by her supportive husband. Her journey, punctuated by a drastic hair change, is more than surface deep; it's a tale of self-expression and the love that inspires us to twirl towards authenticity.Have you ever wondered what it truly means to choose happiness amidst the storms? This episode isn't just about weathering life's challenges; it's a deep dive into the art of joyful resilience. I open up about the arduous path of grieving my sister—a journey through the thicket of sorrow that taught me the strength found in our most vulnerable moments. Together with Ohemaa, we reflect on life's poignant episodes, from the fear of a Adele's illness and death to the transformative power of a fresh haircut. It's a conversation that champions mindfulness as our compass through the tempest of negative thoughts, grief, and the pursuit of happiness.Navigating the digital age's currents, Ohemaa and I discuss the ebb and flow of sharing our lives online while honoring personal boundaries. We unravel the complexities of posting about our relationships in the public eye and the necessary balance when humor and memes intersect with reality. Through her story, we highlight the indispensable role of open communication in a marriage—ensuring that even when not wearing a wedding ring, the reasons are shared with a partner. It's an episode where laughter rings out, understanding deepens, and the freedom to be unapologetically oneself is celebrated within the sacred dance of partnership. Join us for a conversation that doesn't merely spotlight the strength in emotional honesty but revels in the liberating act of being true to oneself and nurturing a supportive bond.Support the showWatch the video episode of this on YouTube - https://linktr.ee/konnectedminds

Based on ethnographic research with victims of intimate partner violence since 2014, Tiantian Zheng's Violent Intimacy: Family Harmony, State Stability, and Intimate Partner Violence in Post-Socialist China (Bloomsbury, 2022) brings to the forefront women's experiences of, negotiations about, and contestations against violence, and men's narratives about the reasons for their violence. Using an innovative methodology - online chat groups, it foregrounds the role of history, structural inequalities, and the cultural system of power hierarchy in situating and constructing intimate partner violence. Centering on men and women's narratives about violence, this book connects intimate partner violence with invisible structural violence - the historical, cultural, political, economic, and legal context that gives rise to and perpetuates violence against women. Through examining the ways in which women's lives are constrained by various forms of violence, hierarchy, and inequality, this book shows that violence against women is a structural issue that is historically produced and politically and culturally engaged. Shu Wan is currently matriculated as a doctoral student in history at the University at Buffalo.
