 One of the values that we have at Uplift Kids is helping families be intentional together, and this can look many, many different ways. Without *some* intentional time, there can be drifting apart and a lack of meaning. So we wanted to talk about ways to be intentional.One of the sources that we've pulled from in this episode is a book called The Intentional Family by a family therapist named William Doherty. Doherty talks about the need to balance rigidity and flexibility.This approach — an approach that might be called a "wisdom approach" — is something that we explore and hold to consistently at Uplift Kids. It's a "both-and" approach rather than an "either-or" approach. And so the idea here is that we want to find a way to have a bit of structure and flexibility, meaning *some* time together.In this episode we explore ways to make intentional time together.

Why is it so hard to “switch off” at the end of the day?You close your laptop, but your mind keeps buzzing. You replay conversations, run through tomorrow's to-dos, maybe even reach for your phone to check just one more email. And even if you try to relax with food, TV, or scrolling, the stress lingers.That's because your nervous system doesn't instantly reset when work ends. Without the right signals, your body stays stuck in fight-or-flight—leaving you restless, snappy, and unable to truly rest.In this episode, I'll walk you through a simple 10-minute transition ritual that helps your body actually release the stress of the day and step into your evening with more peace, presence, and joy.You'll learn: ✔️ Why your brain and body resist shutting down after work (and what's really going on physiologically) ✔️ How “happy hormones” like dopamine, serotonin, oxytocin, and endorphins help you reset ✔️ A guided, science-backed practice that combines breath, somatic release, and prayer ✔️ How to re-enter your evening grounded—in your body, in your relationships, and in God's rest

This week on Our Uncommon Life, we're keeping things light and fun as we recap our weekend getaway up in Traverse City ...complete with family time, crab legs, and a little chaos (because of course).We chat about what it's like for Zac to hang out with his in-laws (spoiler: he actually always enjoys it), our four-year anniversary of owning the condo, and the mix of nostalgia and gratitude that comes with that milestone. From all-you-can-eat crab legs and a few lucky (or not-so-lucky) spins at the casino, to checking out new local favorites like Sisters and Glendale Burgers, it was one of those perfectly imperfect weekends that reminded us why we love this place so much.Zac also got to sneak in a golf day with the guys at Grand Traverse Resort, while Vena… had a slightly less glamorous morning at Munson Hospital for what we're now calling “the Great Gas Incident of 2025.” (Don't worry, she lived to tell the tale.)It's a weekend recap episode full of laughter, real-life moments, and the reminder that the best memories are usually the unplanned ones.

The Holistic Healing of Jay "Kramden's"Life and The "Wanderer"Grandpa Bill Asks: Have you ever considered the quiet impact of those who keep our cities moving, like bus drivers? What unsung heroes in your daily life deserve a moment in the spotlight?But Jay's world extends beautifully beyond the bus window. He's a devoted son and father, finding his deepest joys in the simple, yet profound, moments shared with his family. Imagine a crisp Maine afternoon, walking along the iconic Western Prom – a place steeped in personal history for Jay and his family. Here, you'll often find Jay, his father, Grandpa Bill, and his brilliant daughter, Adah, sharing stories, laughter, and the quiet comfort of being together. These aren't just walks; they're rituals of connection, moments of holistic healing that ground them and strengthen their bonds.Adah, with her bright mind and keen observations, adds another layer of richness to these family outings. Her perspective, combined with Grandpa Bill's wisdom and Jay's steady presence, creates a beautiful dynamic that reminds us all of the power of intergenerational connections. It's in these shared experiences, these traditions, that we truly understand where we come from and who we are.Grandpa Bill Asks: What family traditions, big or small, bring you the most peace, joy, or a sense of belonging? How do these moments contribute to your overall well-being?Jay "Kramden" reminds us that heroism isn't always about grand gestures; sometimes, it's in the consistent, kind, and dedicated way we show up for our communities and our families. It's in the simple joys, the familiar routes, and the cherished walks that we find our truest selves and experience the deepest forms of holistic healing.Jay "Kramden": Portland's Heartbeat, Family Man, and Community Connector#JayKramden, #PortlandMaine ,#BusDriverLife, #CommunityHero, #EverydayHeroes, #MaineLife, #TheWestEnd, #WesternProm, #FamilyTime, #HolisticHealing, #PodcastLife, #YouTubeChannel, #BillHolt#BHSalesKennelKelpHolisticHealingHour, ,#InspiringStories, #CommunitySpotlight, #RealLifeHeroes, #UrbanStories, #MaineAdventures, #FamilyGoals, #GenerationalLove, #SimpleJoys, #LifeInPortland ,#ExploreMaine, #LocalLegends ,#Storytelling, #VlogLife ,#BloggersOfInstagram, #ConnectWithCommunity ,#MindfulLiving ,#Gratitude,

Author Veeda Bybee discusses her new cookbook, A Few of My Favorite Things: Recipes Inspired by Family-Friendly Musicals. Once upon a time, Veeda Bybee was a food blogger. But as family and other commitments grew, maintaining the blog became too much work, and she eventually gave it up. This cookbook marks a return to writing about food and cooking, and she admits that it is a dream come true. During the pandemic, Veeda and her family began enjoying Family Musical Fridays, during which they watched a musical together, and Veeda prepared a recipe mentioned in the movie or inspired by the relevant time period or setting. By doing this, she found she was able to give her kids a good reason to try new foods. Family Musical Fridays were a big hit with her family, and they inspired her to create a cookbook featuring her family's favorite recipes and musicals.

He shares with us meaningful moments that taught him important lessons about this careful balance, tells us why advocacy has become such an integral part of his work, and leaves us with some extremely valuable tips for creating a balance that works perfectly for you. Whether you're a foster parent, caregiver, young parent, or just need help balancing your work and life, this episode is perfect for you.

Success doesn't happen by accident—it's engineered. In this engaging episode, Vinney Chopra and Gualter Amarelo pull back the curtain on the hidden forces that drive personal and financial breakthroughs. Vinney's story of arriving in America with $7 and building over 4,500 units in multifamily, senior living, and hospitality investments is nothing short of inspiring. Gualter complements this with his own journey of building wealth through strategic relationships and real estate mastery.   During this episode, they unpack:

In this week's episode of the podcast, I'm diving into the third core priority of a balanced life: kid-focused time. Not just “family time” while you juggle dinner and laundry—but the kind of intentional, present moments that actually fill your kids' love tanks and leave you feeling like the mom you want to be. I share client stories, mindset shifts, and the 3-step process to help you show up for your kids without guilt, stress, or sacrificing your career. If you've ever wondered whether you're giving your family "enough," this episode will change the way you think about time. Topics in this episode:What “kid-focused time” really means (hint: it's not multitasking) Why more time doesn't automatically mean better time How to decide what “enough” time is for YOU The 3 steps to make kid-focused time happen: clarity, confidence, control Real client wins from small shifts in presence, not massive life overhaulsShow Notes & References:You can watch this episode on YouTube!

Have you ever asked yourself: Am I sacrificing too much time with my wife and kids in pursuit of my career or financial goals? What small changes could I make right now to build more connection points and memories with my family? Am I making choices that line up with the kind of legacy and example I want to set for my children? Whether you're a career-driven dad, a business owner, or just trying to do your best for your family, this episode is an honest look at why intentional time, connection, and legacy matter far more than your next paycheck. This week, Larry takes us on a heartfelt journey inspired by his recent 50th birthday, reflecting on the advice he wishes he could have given his younger self during his 30s and 40s. With deep sincerity, he opens up about the “rookie mistakes” he made by spending years grinding in a demanding career—sacrificing precious time with his wife and kids in pursuit of financial success. Drawing from powerful examples, including an emotional moment from Tom Brady reflecting on the cost of greatness, Larry reminds us that while hustling to provide is noble, it often comes at a price that money can't buy back: time, connection, and memories with our loved ones. He shares statistics on how finances often strain marriages, highlights the importance of intentional living, and encourages dads to pause and assess what their hard work might be costing them outside the office. So if you've ever questioned if the grind is worth it, or worried about missing out on what truly matters, this one's for you.    Become the best husband you can: https://bit.ly/deamarriageyoutube In this vital conversation, we dig into: The Hidden Price of Success: Working 60, 70, or even 80 hours a week is celebrated by many men. Yet, as Larry reveals, this dedication is often worn as a badge of honor. While providing for a family is noble, the cost can be severe. Countless hours spent at work are hours lost with children, spouses, and friends. Larry's own journey included long weeks on the road and executive-level sacrifices in the medical industry. Despite earning a good living, he found himself disconnected and unfulfilled. The Irreplaceable Asset: Time with Family: Time is the one thing every parent has in equal measure—24 hours each day. Although bank accounts and careers differ, the hours we have with loved ones are finite. Larry highlights this by referencing Tom Brady's emotional reflection on his father. Even with record-breaking success and financial security, Brady admitted to sacrificing precious moments with his children. This lesson resonates with many fathers who struggle to strike a healthy balance. Wealth, Marriage, and the Stress Factor: Finances play a leading role in marital stress. In fact, 37% of divorces are linked primarily to money disagreements. Arguments about spending, saving, and debt are rampant in households. Sometimes, financial infidelity—like secret spending—can quietly erode trust. Moreover, differences in money personalities between spouses can further complicate things. One partner may be a saver while the other prefers to spend, creating ongoing tension. Rethinking the Grind: Society tells us we must stick with what we know, even if it costs us happiness. Larry demonstrates that it's possible to shift careers, learn new skills, and pursue passions. He provides examples of his own path, as well as others who made midlife career changes successfully. There are more ways to generate income today than ever before. From real estate to side hustles, passive revenue is accessible for those willing to be creative and disciplined. Practical Advice for Fathers: Larry urges fathers to pause and consider what the grind is truly costing them. Is it worth missing key moments with your children? Instead of only focusing on earning, he recommends open communication with your spouse. Aligning financial goals can ease the burden and reduce the need for endless overtime. Fathers don't have to choose between security and connection. With intention, you can build both. This episode is packed with raw, practical wisdom on finding balance, embracing new opportunities, and living with intentionality. Here's what research and observation highlight about financial issues in relationships: Almost 3 out of 10 couples are secretly spending money that the other person doesn't know about. Money fights show up in nearly 40 to 50% of all marital arguments. 27% of couples or partners admit to secretly spending, and 10% say it will lead directly to divorce thedadedge.com/friday517 thedadedge.com/mastermind Brady on Family vs football
