Newt talks with former Senator Tim Hutchinson about his new memoir, From Spavinaw to D.C.: A Conservative's Journey Through Faith, Farm Life, and the Fight for America. Hutchinson reflects on his upbringing on an Arkansas farm, the faith mentors who shaped him, and how Ronald Reagan's 1964 "A Time for Choosing" speech sparked his political awakening as a teenager. He recounts becoming the first Republican popularly elected to the Senate from Arkansas in 1996, his role in the "Gingrich Revolution" and the Cracker Jacks freshman caucus, and the dramatic phone call that pushed him from a safe House seat into a Senate run. Their conversation covers the cultural differences between the House and Senate, formative trips to Israel and China, and his enduring friendships across the aisle, including with Senator Russ Feingold over golf. Hutchinson closes by sharing his Fourth of July plans with family.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After a second successful event in Baku in as many years, Jim and Matt are joined by Brandon Royval and Shane Collins. The boys talk about wins, losses, and life outside the Octagon.After three years away from the show, perennial flyweight contender Brandon Royval, stops by to discuss his IFW bout against Lone'er Kavanagh. Nearing the end of his longest fight camp, Royval thinks a win could catapult him into title contention once more. Moving away from business talk, the trio play around with assigning fight songs and movie comparisons.Then, Shane Collins makes his Unfiltered debut just a week after his inaugural UFC bout. Although Shane just made his first walk to the Octagon, he's no stranger to the UFC atmosphere after revealing he's cornered multiple fighters. That experience provided a natural boost in the dominant decision win.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Ever since the Homestead Act of 1862, the U.S. government has worked to help everyday Americans own a piece of their nation. One important innovation was the 30-year fixed rate mortgage, a uniquely American loan that helped supercharge homeownership in the U.S. after World War II. But not every effort by the government to increase homeownership has paid off. Now as younger homebuyers face an affordability crisis, can the U.S. government keep that American dream alive This episode is part of The Wall Street Journal's USA250: The Story of the World's Greatest Economy, a collection of articles, videos and podcasts aiming to offer a deeper understanding of how America has evolved.

Do This When You're Frustrated With Your TeamWhen business gets hard, morale gets weird, and your team starts slipping, it's real easy to let your frustration lead the room.That's a mistake.In this episode, Tim and Derek talk about what contractors need to do when they're frustrated with their team, when the business is in a low, and when they feel like snapping instead of leading. They get into the reality that leadership still starts at the top, why your people may be carrying more than you realize, and how to handle team issues without becoming the problem yourself.This is a conversation about self-regulation, accountability, and doing the thing you don't want to do when you don't want to do it. Because when your company hits a rough patch, your team still needs leadership — not your bad mood.Tim and Derek also talk about what to do when business slows down, why fun and reset matter more than most owners think, and how to lead people in a way they'll remember for the right reasons.In this episode:What to do when you're frustrated with your teamWhy team problems usually lead back to the ownerHow to lead when morale is low and business is hardWhy your employees may need more from you than you realizeHow to address behavior without blowing up your cultureWhat to do when business is slow and your team needs a resetWhy your people will remember how you made them feelIf you're a contractor trying to build a stronger team, become a better leader, and stop letting frustration run your business, this one's for you.Ready to scale your contracting business?

Most men enter divorce feeling like a bad person. Shamed. Labeled. Often called a narcissist. This episode is for that man. Because the truth is, you are not broken. You are under-resourced. And there is a profound difference. In this solo episode, Karen McMahon speaks directly to the divorcing dad who is white-knuckling it through one of the hardest seasons of his life, carrying shame he didn't earn, fighting for children he loves deeply, and quietly wondering if he's going to make it through this. The answer is yes. And this episode shows you how. Karen addresses the emotional depth of men that nobody is acknowledging, the very real dangers that emerge when divorcing dads don't get support, and the brilliance... yes, brilliance... that becomes possible when they do. What you'll take away: 1. The truth about your emotional life You feel more than anyone has ever given you credit for. You've just never been given the tools, the language, or the permission to work with it. That changes here. 2. The stats that should stop us all cold Divorcing men are among the most at-risk demographics on the planet. The numbers are sobering. The silence around them is unacceptable. Karen names them, because someone has to. 3. Fight for your kids and your right to father them Her version of reality is not the truth. The courts are not automatically stacked against you. And keeping the peace at the expense of your presence is not protecting your children. It is costing them. Trust what you innately know they need from you. 4. Trust your instincts as a dad You parent differently than mom. That is not a weakness. It is exactly what your children need, and only you can give it. Karen shares a powerful story that will change how you see yourself as a father. 5. Roll up your sleeves The hard, vulnerable, and courageous work of healing your wounds and refining your character is not optional if you want to emerge from this as the man and father your children deserve. This episode shows you exactly where to begin. 6. Break the chain The generational patterns that quietly led you here, they stop with you. This painful season is your invitation to become the man who was always in there, waiting to be found. In this episode Karen also covers: Why men feel deeply and why nobody is talking about it The dangerous edge men reach when emotional capacity runs out Why caving and controlling are both driven by fear and what to do instead How to evict your ex from your mental space and reclaim your own thinking Why silence and boundaries do more heavy lifting than any argument ever will The Michelangelo principle and what it means for who you're becoming Why divorce is the most powerful doorway men walk through to do their inner work Resources mentioned in this episode:

"You cannot mindset your way out of a dysregulated nervous system." -Kristen Olson For years we've been told to think positive, push harder, and power through challenges. But what if the answer isn't changing your mindset first? In this solo episode of Turmeric & Tequila, Kristen Olson dives into the science of nervous system regulation, burnout recovery, emotional resilience, anxiety, addiction recovery, and stress management. Drawing from her experiences as a former Division I athlete, CrossFit Games competitor, entrepreneur, and podcast host, Kristen explores why so many high performers are exhausted despite doing everything "right." You'll learn how chronic stress impacts the body, why trauma lives in the nervous system, how burnout affects performance and health, and practical tools you can use today to regulate your nervous system and improve your quality of life. Whether you're an entrepreneur, athlete, parent, leader, or simply feeling overwhelmed, this conversation offers evidence-based insights and actionable strategies to help you move from survival mode into sustainable success. In This Episode: ✔️ The difference between mindset work and nervous system regulation✔️ Why burnout is more than just being tired✔️ The science behind anxiety and stress responses✔️ Trauma-informed approaches to healing✔️ Addiction recovery through a nervous system lens✔️ Evidence-based resilience practices✔️ Breathwork, movement, sleep, community, and purpose as recovery tools✔️ Why awareness is the first step toward healing KO's Key Take Aways/ Life learned lessons: Many people think they need more motivation when what they really need is recovery.

Fibromyalgia and adrenal fatigue go hand in hand — and most people are never told why. In this episode, Nurse Doza breaks down five things you need to understand: why fibromyalgia is a nervous system stuck in fight-or-flight, how your adrenals burn out first, why DHEA-S is the one lab that reveals severity, and how to restore rest-and-digest mode with targeted adrenal and neurotransmitter support. Featured Product: Zen Years stuck in fight-or-flight leave your adrenal glands running on empty — and that burnout is the fatigue, poor recovery, and wired-but-tired feeling at the center of fibromyalgia. Zen is an adaptogen formula built for exactly that. It pairs bovine adrenal glandular tissue with a comprehensive blend of botanical adaptogens, B vitamins, and vitamin C to support your stress response, steadier energy, and a calmer nervous system. Take one capsule twice daily to start supporting the system from the inside.

Keep them everywhere, like ibuprofen. You never know when you need them.  We have thoughts about Giants pitchers, DOJ and Attorneys General wasting taxpayer dollars on non issues, bigotry having consequences, and the chance for Book Club Girl to say Pride and Prejudice on a baseball podcast. The World Cup continues to provide endless opportunities for cross-training. Ecuador/Curaçao brings out the boyfriends, we've got a slippery slope of mouth covering with intent, there's the welcome mats extended to Scots and Vikings and rolled up for many other countries (again we say, why is the US allowed to host?), and some creative letter but not spirit of the law following by Gillette and Levis. There's the first cycle of the season, and then the first for Bryce (thanks, Schwarbs!). Drake comes back and hits a ball really, really, far.  Nasim finally makes Pottymouth's team. JJ's fifth grade teacher gets her 5 minutes of fame.

If you've tried therapy, medication, journaling, and every mindset tool available — and you're still anxious — this episode is for you. Dr. Russell Kennedy, physician, neuroscientist, and certified trauma therapist, makes the case that anxiety doesn't start in your mind. It starts in your body, as a physiological alarm that's likely been there since childhood. And until you address the alarm directly, you're only ever managing symptoms. Dr. Kennedy explores why perimenopause turns up the volume on anxiety that felt manageable before, why overachievement is just another way of outrunning the alarm, and what you can actually do — today — to start healing from the body up. Fair warning: Dr. Kennedy takes Dr. Stephanie through a live exercise to find her body alarm. There were tears in the production room.

The Lord will Fight for you // Pastor Steven GibbsPromises of GodStonecreek Church

[Intro] I didn't mean to spill it I never meant to hurt anyone It was pent up in me I was just tired of living a double life and pretending the pain was out there somewhere. [Verse] The nightmare's ceased The sun was bright All was one and beautiful and the pressure within no more. [Pre chorus] Fight the outside Fight the stereotype Fight the mind control and fight the rewiring frequencies Got enough problems on my own. [Chorus] I know what you say is true For you. I know what you say is valid. For you. I know what you say is risky For you. [Bridge] I really can't relate I really don't equate I really haven't seen what you've seen I am not who you think I am I am not you [Pre Chorus] the truth within will piss them off Will split the herd Will cancel the show Will run into the detour of a normal life, a formal lie. [Chorus] I know what you say is true For you. I know what you say is valid. For you. I know what you say is risky For you. [Verse] Conformity is for losers The world is a contradiction You do what they say You find another way Live like there is no tomorrow [Breakdown] No time, out of time No tomorrow No time, out of line No tomorrow No quest , the daunting jest No tomorrow. [Chorus] I know what you say is true For you. I know what you say is valid. For you. I know what you say is risky For you. [Outro] I don't care what you think I don't care who you fool I don't care for your rules So I will break them I will make them I am true Not you. Home.

Sunday Morning Message - "Win! Running the Race and Fighting the Fight"In this message from June 21, Pastor Kyle is in 1 Corinthians chapter 9 drawing focus on how life was intended to have a bigger mission than personal success or earthly accomplishments. Through Paul's example, we discovered that true fulfillment comes when we embrace our part in God's story - living to see others won into the family of God. This radical reorienting of life calls us to view everywhere God has sent us as our mission field: our families, workplaces, and communities. Paul's passion wasn't just for personal comfort but for the sake of the gospel, demonstrating that the good news of Jesus is too important to stop with us.

Al, Zach, John Luke, and Christian connect the hidden influence of faithful mothers from Constantine's mom to Miss Kay with the way one unknown believer can change history through a single faithful conversation. The guys look at Constantine's complicated legacy, from the Nicene Creed and the spread of Christianity to his violent family history and deathbed baptism. They also connect ancient Rome's struggle over faith, power, and paganism to modern America's temptation to make Jesus smaller than politics, party loyalty, personal peace, or cultural identity. In this episode: 1 John 4, verse 8; 1 John 4, verse 10; John 1, verses 1–14; Philippians 2, verses 5–11; 1 John 2, verses 18–23; 2 John 1, verse 7; John 17, verse 3; Acts 17, verse 24 Today's conversation is about Lesson 10 of Ancient Christianity taught by visiting Hillsdale Professor of History Kenneth Calvert. Take the course with us at no cost to you! Sign up at http://unashamedforhillsdale.com/. More about Ancient Christianity: Christ entered the world during the reign of Caesar Augustus. The tensions between Christianity and the Roman Empire shaped the daily practice of the Christian faith and led many Romans to distrust and persecute the early Christians. But Christianity also benefitted from the Roman world. And when Rome collapsed in the West, Christianity provided the hope for preserving civilization. In this free, eleven-lecture course, Professor Kenneth Calvert will explore: How the Jewish, Greek, and Roman cultures all contributed to preparing the world to hear the Gospel. Why many Romans distrusted and persecuted the early Christians. The inspiring stories of Christ, His apostles, and faithful ones throughout the first four centuries of Christianity. The arguments of key early Christian apologists—Ignatius, Irenaeus, Justin, Athanasius, and more—who defended and defined the Christian faith amidst the animosity of the Roman world. The conversion of Constantine and how he brought stability to Rome, and how the rivalry between his sons almost returned Rome to paganism. How Augustine's writings helped preserve the message of Christianity during the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West. You will discover the uncertainties, trials, and triumphs of the earliest Christians as they confronted controversies within the faith and persecutions from outside it. Join us today to discover the improbable and miraculous story of Christianity.

In April 1989, a newspaper clipping about an art exhibit landed in the mailbox of the Rev. Donald Wildmon, the founder of a conservative evangelical group, the American Family Association. Partly funded by the National Endowment for the Arts, the exhibit included a now-infamous photograph by Andres Serrano that showed a crucifix submerged in Serrano's own urine. Incensed, Wildmon sent a copy of the photo to every member of Congress, setting off a battle led by the Christian right over what contemporary art could be and who should receive federal funding for it. Isaac Butler, an author and cultural historian, walks through this and other pivotal moments in the culture wars of the 1980s and 1990s in his new book, “The Perfect Moment: God, Sex, Art and the Birth of America's Culture Wars.” Butler spoke to the Book Review's editor, Gilbert Cruz, about how these fights unfolded and what they meant for the artists themselves. He sat down to write the book, he said, when “it really felt like the culture wars of the '80s and '90s that I grew up in were repeating again.” Books and plays discussed on this episode: “The Perfect Moment: God, Sex, Art and the Birth of America's Culture Wars,” by Isaac Butler “Measure for Measure,” by William Shakespeare “Transgressions: The Offences of Art,” by Anthony Julius “It Was Vulgar and It Was Beautiful: How AIDS Activists Used Art to Fight a Pandemic,” by Jack Lowery “The Devil Finds Work,” by James Baldwin “Fire in the Belly: The Life and Times of David Wojnarowicz,” by Cynthia Carr “Elia Kazan: A Life,” by Elia Kazan “Fear No Pharaoh: American Jews, the Civil War and the Fight to End Slavery,” by Richard Kreitner “The Kindness of Strangers,” by Salka Viertel “The Talmud: A Biography,” by Barry Scott Wimpfheimer “My Last Sigh,” by Luis Buñuel Listen to and Follow ‘The Book Review' Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Amazon Music | YouTube | iHeartRadio Unlock full access to New York Times podcasts, and explore everything from politics to pop culture.

Lush peonies, delicate hydrangeas, and vibrant roses burst into bloom in early summer, filling gardens and parks with color and fragrance. But flowers are more than their beauty. They're some of the oldest beings on Earth, and they played a large role in shaping the natural world as we know it. Author and biologist David George Haskell joins us to discuss his 2026 book, How Flowers Made Our World: The Story of Nature's Revolutionaries.   Also, while honeybees get most of the buzz, most bees don't produce honey, and most don't even live in colonies. Instead, they're solitary bees who build individual nests. A recent study details an astonishing finding of several million solitary bees in a cemetery in Ithaca, New York.   And the 2026 El Niño is now officially underway, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or NOAA. Combined with the ongoing rising temperatures from the climate crisis, this possible “super” El Niño could spell major disruption of weather patterns and ocean circulation worldwide.   --   Sign up for the next virtual Living on Earth Book Club event on July 14 at 5 pm PDT / 8 pm EDT!

Many people don't lose their love for reading and deep thinking; they just get buried under responsibilities, distractions, and endless screens until their imagination quietly slips into the background. Today's guest, Barry J. “BJ” Spaulding, a former federal law enforcement officer and military veteran turned science fiction author, shows how stories can pull us back into wonder, responsibility, and faith. After 32 years of service, a divorce, retirement, and the pandemic, Barry finally returned to his teenage dream of writing, and the result is a growing catalog of books, including Dark Star, The Fight for Survival, and Who's to Blame. In this episode of Marketer of the Day, Barry shares how his background in the Army, law enforcement, and Dungeons & Dragons helped him build believable universes, flawed heroes, and grounded military sci‑fi. He explains why Dark Star took 15 years to fully come together, how he weaves real-world tactics, emotional trauma, and survival decisions into epic space battles, and why he refuses to write “perfect” heroes. His stories blend science fact, combat experience, and speculative fiction in a way that still feels human and uncomfortably honest about what people do when the stakes are life and death. Barry also dives into the deeply personal inspiration behind Who's to Blame, a story about a man named George who spends his life blaming God for every tragedy, until God finally brings him to heaven for a direct, no-excuses conversation. Through that lens, Barry explores blame, loss, faith, and personal responsibility, asking hard questions like: What part did I play in what happened? and Do we create our own heaven and hell? If you've ever wondered how modern faith, free will, and suffering could be explored through a compelling story instead of a dry debate, this episode lays out a powerful blueprint. https://youtu.be/bYx9q-h23Yc?si=WRRRmtnLCYW5z5Ck Along the way, Barry and Robert talk about why reading and writing are more important than ever in a tech-saturated world, how books slow your mind down, force you to visualize, and create a private dialogue between the words and your soul in a way movies and social media can't match. Barry shares practical insights into his writing process, why he often writes without an outline, how reader feedback sharpened his character development, and what's coming next (including a twist-filled vampire novel, a heartfelt story for his daughter, and a Dark Star prequel and sequel). If you love science fiction, military thrillers, faith-driven stories, or need a nudge to pick up a book, and maybe a pen. Again, this conversation will rekindle your imagination and remind you why stories matter. Quotes: "I wanted to create a believable universe. I didn't want it to be just things appear, things are there, and there's no real explanation behind it." "I will tell people over and over again: don't stop reading. Technology is wonderful, but it can't replace a good book on a quiet evening." "When you're reading, it's between the words on the page and your soul. You envision what's on the pages. You can't do that in a movie theater." Contact Details: Visit Barry J.

In Episode 159 of the MAX Afterburner Podcast, Matthew “Whiz” Buckley delivers an unfiltered SITREP on Operation Epic Fury, the escalating conflict with Iran, and the daily confusion surrounding negotiations, red lines, and America's strategic objectives.Pulling no punches, Whiz argues that proportional warfare is for losers and contends that the radical Islamic regime in Iran began its war against the United States nearly five decades ago. He examines President Trump's stated desire to finish that fight while questioning whether current negotiations and military strategy are achieving the desired outcome.Drawing on his experience as a TOPGUN fighter pilot who spent a lot of time in the region, Whiz discusses the dangers of prolonged military operations, the risks faced by America's young servicemembers, and why he believes dragging conflicts out can carry costs measured not only in lives lost, but in lives forever changed.He highlights the recent shootdown of a U.S. Army AH-64 Apache helicopter by Iranian forces. By the grace of God, both aviators survived. Yet Whiz challenges the notion that America should only respond decisively after fatalities occur. He argues that traumatic brain injuries, life-altering wounds, and invisible injuries suffered by servicemembers matter just as much as casualty statistics.As the founder of the No Fallen Heroes Foundation, Whiz has spent years working with veterans carrying the unseen wounds of war. He points out that repeated drone, missile, and proxy attacks don't have to kill American troops to inflict devastating consequences. Every attack risks creating another generation of warriors who return home carrying physical, emotional, and moral injuries that can last a lifetime.Whiz also challenges the idea that America's adversaries can be negotiated with as if they were business partners across a Manhattan real estate table. He questions whether mixed messaging, shifting red lines, and prolonged operations are putting more American lives at risk rather than bringing the conflict to a decisive conclusion.But this episode is about more than strategy and geopolitics.As always, Whiz speaks from the heart, reminding listeners that war is the ultimate failure of the human condition. Beneath the flags, politics, religions, and borders, we are all human beings. While he calls for decisive action when necessary, he also calls for peace—and for leaders to never forget the human cost paid by those sent into harm's way.Passionate. Provocative. Thought-provoking.This is an episode that will challenge assumptions, spark debate, and leave listeners thinking long after the debrief is over.Fight's On!

Jonathan Weber, a longtime San Francisco journalist, is the author of the new history "City on the Edge: Technology, Politics, and the Fight for the Soul of San Francisco." He explains how the internet took root in the city, how local politics transformed as tech grew from 2% of jobs to 35%, and how the artificial intelligence wave has finally made the industry indigenous to San Francisco. He worries the wealth is turning a misfit city into a money town.

Jay Gunkelman goes in BLIND on a 10-year-old's EEG — no diagnosis, no story. What he finds isn't a broken brain: it's gross over-arousal with FAST alpha near 12 Hz, beta spindling up at 32 Hz that a database stopping at 30 would never see, and a left-side sympathetic source pointing at the insula. The likely complaint? Anxiety — maybe labeled OCD, maybe pushed toward an SSRI that would make this brain worse, not better. Jay lays out the actual fix: the Scott protocol's pre-treatment FIRST (calm the sympathetic trigger and slow content), THEN slow-alpha and alpha-theta training to drop the arousal. Read the brain, and the trajectory of a whole life changes. Plus: Joshua Moore previews his first QEEG-phenotypes workshop.

Jenna Free is a counselor specializing in ADHD regulation who discovered her own diagnosis while drowning in grad school with two babies 17 months apart. She has since developed a full certification program teaching other mental health professionals her ADHD regulation method, and she runs ADHD regulation groups for clients from her home base in Calgary, Alberta. In this episode, Jenna joined The Dad Edge Alliance for a live Q&A that goes far deeper than a typical ADHD conversation. The focus isn't the diagnosis itself — it's the nervous system, specifically how chronic fight-or-flight mode silently drives the impatience, compulsive behavior, crashes, and parenting struggles so many dads in this community experience. If you've ever wondered why you can't just logic your way into being calmer, this one's for you. Most of us assume ADHD is about the brain you were born with. Jenna reframes it completely — the real problem isn't the diagnosis, it's the dysregulated nervous system underneath it, and that part is something you can actually change. This conversation pulls back the curtain on the frantic-crash cycle, the fight-flight-freeze-fawn response, why pressure feels like performance, and what it looks like to function from a regulated baseline instead of white-knuckling through the day. This is especially powerful for any dad who has ever snapped at his kids in the morning, struggled to slow down, or quietly wondered whether go, go, go is actually working against him.   Timeline Summary [1:02] Jenna's background: how her own ADHD diagnosis in grad school — with a six-month-old and an 18-month-old at home — led her to develop the ADHD regulation method [3:24] Why calendars and timers weren't enough: the frantic-crash cycle Jenna kept seeing in herself and every client she worked with [4:13] The nervous system root cause: why almost every neurodivergent person (and most parents) is running in a chronic state of fight-or-flight [6:36] Can you think your way out of it? Jenna explains why logic alone can't calm a dysregulated nervous system [9:16] Alliance member Jason's question: where to start with regulation for yourself and how to notice when your son is sliding into dysregulation [10:06] The first practical step — learning to physically feel dysregulation in your body: tight shoulders, rushing, impatience, holding your breath [11:49] The rushing reframe every parent needs: shifting from "let's go, let's go" to "let's focus" and why that small shift changes the whole morning [17:55] Breaking down all four modes: fight, flight, freeze, and fawn — including why people-pleasing is a survival response, not a personality trait [25:26] Alliance member Chris's question: the "pressure to perform" cycle and why functioning in high-intensity fight-or-flight leads to hard crashes and compulsive avoidance [30:21] Why a formal diagnosis may not matter: Jenna's framework focuses on nervous system regulation regardless of whether you have a label [40:19] Dysregulation is contagious — but so is regulation: how Jenna's own internal work changed her husband without a single conversation about it [42:16] Joanne's question: how to help a high-achieving son who struggles at school, and why the most powerful thing parents can do happens before they drop the kids off [47:21] Jenna's upcoming book, Full Capacity, and why she believes regulation is the most ambitious thing a driven person can pursue [54:12] The dreamer-freeze type: why a low-motivation, avoidant kid is just as dysregulated as a hyperactive one — it just looks different [57:10] The host shares his own ADHD management tools — exercise and clean eating — and Jenna explains exactly why they work from a nervous system standpoint   Five Key Takeaways You can't think your way out of fight-or-flight because it's not a thought problem — it's a nervous system problem. The primal part of your brain believes you're being chased by a bear, and no amount of self-talk will convince it otherwise until you address the physical and behavioral patterns keeping it on alert. The frantic-crash cycle isn't a productivity style — it's a symptom. When you require pressure to get things done and then collapse afterward, you're not built that way; you've been trained into it. The only way out is to consciously lower the intensity during the good stretches, not just manage the crashes. Rushing is one of the clearest signals your nervous system has flipped into survival mode. When you catch yourself rushing the kids in the morning, the fix isn't to push through faster — it's to physically slow down and shift from "let's go" to "let's focus," which calms everyone's system and actually gets you out the door more effectively. Your regulation — or lack of it — is setting the baseline for your whole family. Kids and partners co-regulate with the people around them. You can't force your kids to be calm, but becoming a regulated, grounded presence does more than any conversation about breathing ever will. Fight-or-flight doesn't always look like intensity. Freeze and avoidance are just as much a dysregulated state as frantic rushing — they're just the other end of the pendulum. A kid who looks unmotivated or a dad who procrastinates for two weeks is dealing with the same nervous system problem as the guy who can't slow down.

But there's something powerful in knowing that the part of you that snaps at your kids, crashes after a big push, or can't quite slow down no matter how much you want to — that part isn't a character flaw. It's a nervous system that's been running in survival mode, and it can be retrained. If this conversation hit close to home, share it with a dad you know who's quietly fighting the same battle.

In this episode, we look at Genesis 15:1-21 and the tension many believers feel: How do we trust God who promises, but has not yet delivered?   When our circumstances seem to contradict what God has said, waiting can feel confusing, painful, and discouraging. But Genesis 15 reminds us that God is not afraid of our questions. He invites us to look to Him in the delay, trust His timing, and rest in the certainty of His promises.   Support the work of Rejoice Marriage Ministries     Download the episode transcription here   Follow on Instagram - @rejoicemarriageministries   Follow on Facebook - @rejoicemarriageministries   Every day, you can receive encouragement straight to your inbox through our Fight for Your Marriage Devotional and find free resources and prayers to pray over your marriage.

If you're wondering why gentle parenting isn't working for your strong-willed child, you're not alone. When a child's brain is dysregulated, strategies fall flat—Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge shows how Regulation First Parenting™ changes behavior by calming the nervous system first.You're staying calm, explaining, validating—and still, your child pushes back harder. If you feel stuck, you're not alone. This episode breaks down why gentle parenting isn't landing and what actually works when your child's nervous system is dysregulated.Why does gentle parenting not work for my strong-willed child?Here's the truth: it's not bad parenting—it's a dysregulated brain. Gentle parenting works beautifully when a child is regulated and can access their thinking brain.But when your child is escalated?Their thinking brain goes offlineLogic and explanations don't landIt's not that they won't—they can'tYou're speaking to a brain that isn't available.Example: You calmly explain why your child needs to turn off the iPad. Instead of cooperating, they argue, yell, or ignore you. It's not defiance—it's dysregulation.Why does my child argue, ignore me, or escalate when I stay calm?Because calm words alone don't regulate a dysregulated nervous system.When your child pushes back, they're often in:Fight mode (arguing, controlling, defying)Flight mode (avoiding, shutting down)In that state:Reasoning feels like pressureCorrection feels like threatTheir system defends—even harderStrong-willed kids?Dig in deeperEscalate fasterFight longerThat intensity isn't a flaw—it's a nervous system under stress.When your child is dysregulated, it's easy to feel helpless. The Regulation Rescue Kit gives you the scripts and strategies you need to stay grounded and in control.

But the sequence is off.Most parenting advice says:Teach → Explain → CorrectBut for dysregulated kids, it must be:Regulate → Connect → CorrectRegulate: Help the nervous system settleConnect: Build safety and trustCorrect: Teach when the brain is readyWhen you skip regulation, nothing sticks.
