Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industryRecovering from an injury can feel like crossing a bridge that abruptly stops in the middle – you've completed physical therapy, received medical clearance, but now what? This critical gap between rehabilitation and returning to your regular fitness routine is where many people stumble, often rushing back too quickly or without proper guidance.The journey back to exercise after injury demands respect for your body's unique healing timeline. As I share from both professional expertise and personal experience, the standard recovery windows doctors provide (like "8-12 weeks") are merely guidelines – some heal faster, others slower. The key is understanding that your recovery journey belongs only to you, regardless of how quickly others might bounce back from similar injuries.This episode walks you through the essential steps for safely returning to activity: securing proper medical clearance, working with movement specialists who can spot compensatory patterns, implementing a truly gradual progression, and perhaps most importantly, developing the patience to honor your body's signals. I offer practical examples using runners returning to their mileage, explaining how alternating walking and running segments allows the body to rebuild strength systematically rather than risking reinjury through immediate high-intensity workouts.The mental challenges often prove more difficult than the physical ones during recovery. Progress comes in waves – improvement followed by temporary setbacks – requiring a positive mindset that trusts in your body's capacity to heal. Whether you're currently navigating injury recovery or want to prepare yourself for future setbacks, this episode provides the framework for a successful return to the activities you love.

Are you struggling with finding the balance between 'guiding' your kids' choices and empowering them with real (but frightening) agency? In this episode, we answer a listener's thoughtful question about how to support their kids in developing individual agency while still fostering a strong, supportive parental attachment and safe environment that protects from real risk without being overly controlling and 'helicoptering'.This listener wonders if their parenting approach might be leaning more toward “managed choices” rather than allowing their children the space to make truly independent decisions. We explore the critical difference between agency and managed choices, which approach works best for which ages/maturity levels, and why it's so important for children to experience true agency as early as possible. We also discuss how parents can equip their kids with the skills and confidence they need to make their own decisions—without feeling controlled. This candid discussion provides insights and practical strategies to help parents foster a healthy balance of love, connection, and independence in their kids' lives.If you're wondering how to give your children the agency they need to confidently navigate life on their own while keeping a strong bond with you, their parent, then this episode is for you.Key Takeaways: ✅ Discover the key differences between agency and managed choices.✅ Learn how to empower your kids to make their own decisions.✅ Discover the mistake that many parents make of being too authoritarian.✅ Understand why it's crucial for children to experience true agency over their lives.✅ Agency is a fundamental human right that should be nurtured in children.✅ Teaching decision-making skills is crucial for children's independence.✅ Obedience can be detrimental; children should learn to think for themselves.**Memorable Quotes:**

Fitness challenges can be a powerful tool for motivation and progress, but they need to be approached strategically. Start by choosing a challenge that aligns with your fitness level and goals. Break down the challenge into smaller, manageable steps to avoid feeling overwhelmed.

Does having children or being married make you more unhappy than single or childless individuals? Many people (rightly) say 'Yes'! That's why more and more people are choosing to remain single, to avoid long-term commitments, and to vow to never have children at all. Because it IS hard and often makes you 'unhappy'.But what if happiness is not the point of life? What if the challenges of marriage and parenting aren't something to avoid, but the very things that make life meaningful? In this episode, we dive into a conversation inspired by a Facebook post that sparked a debate on whether the struggles of raising children and maintaining a marriage are worth it. The Dennings explore the idea that, far from being reasons to quit, these challenges are paths to personal growth, fulfillment, and a more rewarding, meaningful (even if sometimes unhappy), life.They also challenge the modern trend of avoiding discomfort for the sake of comfort and convenience, instead suggesting that leaning into the struggles—whether it's raising kids or nurturing a relationship—is what leads to lasting satisfaction. In fact, just like any skill, marriage, and parenting require knowledge, practice, and the right tools to truly thrive.Not everyone should necessarily pursue marriage or parenthood, but if you choose that path, it's important to do it well. Developing the skills needed to navigate the challenges of family life is essential for creating a fulfilling and meaningful experience.If you've ever felt overwhelmed by the chaos of family life, or if you're on the fence about whether marriage and family are right for you, this episode offers insights and encouragement to help you not just survive but thrive. And if you're ready to develop those skills, we can help you with the tools you need to create the Extraordinary Family Life of your dreams.RESOURCES:Let us help you in your extraordinary family life journey.JOIN GREG'S 90-DAY HEALTH & FITNESS CHALLENGE! Get Rachel's ⁠⁠Family Systems & Charts⁠⁠Join the ⁠⁠28-Day Challenge⁠⁠ for MomsRachel's ⁠⁠Must-Read Booklist for Well-Read Moms⁠⁠⁠Greg's ⁠⁠Recommended Reading List for Parents & Youth⁠⁠Join the Formidable Family Man Masterclass and TribeJoin Greg's 7-Day Challenge Follow us on Instagram: ⁠@worldschoolfamily⁠ or ⁠@greg.denning⁠Gather with us at the ⁠World School Family (Beach & Farm) Resort⁠ in PortugalRead our reviews here: https://podcast.extraordinaryfamilylife.com/reviews/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcast.extraordinaryfamilylife.com/voicemail/

"Is there room for doubt? Or are you always certain (in this podcast, etc) that your decisions/choices about how to navigate this life are the way everyone should also do things? Because if you are certain, that leaves no room for tolerance or unity, which isn't necessarily a good thing." In this episode, we discuss certainty and the role it plays in the choices we make and the lives we live. We are VERY CERTAIN about many things we talk about on this podcast, but is that always a good thing? A listener recently shared a thought-provoking perspective inspired by the movie The Conclave, where a cardinal gives a powerful speech on the dangers of certainty. Then, after watching our episode #276, they wondered if our confidence in our choices—whether in parenting, relationships, or personal development—leaves room for doubt or growth. They asked: “Is there room for ‘doubt,' or are you always ‘certain' that your way is the best for everyone?” Greg and Rachel Denning reflect on this powerful question in today's conversation. They explore the tension between certainty and doubt, how certainty can sometimes cause division (especially in religious contexts), and the importance of staying open-minded, even when you've found clarity in your own path. This episode is a candid discussion about balancing conviction with curiosity, and how we can learn from each other's experiences while still standing firm in our beliefs. The Denning's share how they navigate the challenges of life, understanding that certainty doesn't always have to mean rigid, and that doubt can be a healthy part of growth. Tune in as we explore how to live with confidence in your decisions while remaining humble enough to question and grow—ultimately shaping an extraordinary life for you and your family.

They address the emotional struggle of setting boundaries without alienating loved ones and the importance of clear, honest communication in these delicate situations. They also touch on the challenges of creating a healthy family environment for your children, especially when outside influences—like extended family members—might not share your values. This episode is packed with insights on how to maintain your peace and family integrity while navigating the difficult waters of family expectations, cultural differences, and differing parenting philosophies.

Whether you're facing the pressures of modern life or simply seeking ways to create a more intentional, extraordinary family experience, this episode offers valuable perspectives and practical advice.
