Hard No

In the kickoff to Artisan Church's new series Evil Thoughts, Lead Pastor Sam Grosso delivers a powerful message titled “A Hard No”, examining how our decisions—both big and small—shape our character and spiritual direction. Rooted in 1 Samuel 24:3-10, Pastor Sam uses David's restraint with Saul to teach how a simple “yes” to God often leads to difficult “nos” in life. This message also sets the foundation for the series, exploring how inner battles and evil thoughts, as identified by early church father Evagrius Ponticus, influence our actions today. Expect biblical insight, honest reflection, and practical wisdom for resisting compromise and standing firm in your faith. If this speaks to you, don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more messages that dig deep into Scripture and real life.

In this message titled “A Hard No,” Lead Pastor Sam Grasso of Artisan Church unpacks 1 Samuel 24:3-10 and explores the tension we often face between easy yeses and difficult nos. Drawing from David's decision not to harm Saul, Pastor Sam highlights how our faith journey is shaped by the pre-decisions we make before temptation or pressure arrives. He challenges us to resist compromise, lean into biblical wisdom over public opinion, and trust that doubt doesn't always mean disbelief—it can actually guide us toward God's best. If you're navigating a tough decision or trying to align your will with God's purpose, this message will encourage and equip you.

Our beliefs about sex and marriage have shifted tremendously over the years – both a reflection and a driver of how we talk about sex. Baby boomers went in search of sex at Woodstock with minimal sexual education. Gen X groped at grunge festivals and in the back seats of cars as the AIDS crisis revealed sex's potential deadly consequences. Millennials found abstinence-only lesson plans in school at odds with the bountiful, never-ending pornography lurking on the internet. How does our age influence our sex lives?

We've been here before, but like everything to do with parenting, it needs revisiting over and over to drive it home. Should an 11 year old have a cell phone? We say no, but Jordan's daughter thinks otherwise. Let's hash it out.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

You may have seen in the news that a report has been released by the Australian College of Nursing making the recommendation put more nurses in school (great) to weigh kids (not great.)

We thought Dr Kyla's response and The Embrace Hub response on The Project were both great ***trigger warning for stigmatising images in the edit*** The Mexican Corn Salad recipe Meg mentioned can be found here, it's delicious.

A case before the US Supreme Court involves the legality of obstruction charges for January 6th insurrectionists. Even though the wife of Justice Clarence Thomas supported Trump's effort to subvert the 2020 election, Thomas will not recuse himself. During his questioning yesterday, he appeared to minimize the insurrection saying “there have been many violent protests that have interfered with proceedings.” He then asked if this obstruction charge had been applied to other protests as if anything could approach similarity to the storming of the US.

This week we welcome the vibrant duo of Ana Quincoces and her daughter, Beba Stapleton, both of whom have carved unique paths in the entertainment and culinary worlds.

YouTube's burgeoning influence, and Ana's remarkable shift from a lawyer to a celebrity chef championing Cuban American success through her Skinny Marinades venture.  This week is peppered with personal anecdotes, from their views on Cuban versus Mexican cuisine to engaging stories of past flights and future aspirations, including a lively discussion on body positivity and zodiac sign compatibilities.  We end the show with the beginning of Pol's Armenian Coffee Reading for Ana and Beba which offers personal and mystical insights into their lives, uncovering desires, warnings, and the supportive nature of Ana's boyfriend and Beba's new exciting project, showcasing a blend of laughter, wisdom, and unexpected revelations.

When I first became a parent coach, I talked a lot with moms about how feelings matter. Over the past 15 years, I've seen a shift. Now there's a lot of awareness about emotions and validation, but I find myself talking more and more about how important it is to have consequences and teach kids that their behavior has an impact.In this episode, you'll learn: Why gentle parenting information is often incompleteWhy it's not enough just to stop yelling and talk about feelingsHow we experience real-life consequences as adults (and how we can use it as a model for parenting)How to protect your own energyThis confusion over, “Ok, I validated their emotion. Now what?” is why I teach the limit setting formula and the concept of restitution. When you're calm AND you put limits, consequences and connection all together, you are teaching your child how to integrate all the parts of their brain. It's a complete parenting model to raise emotionally healthy humans. Listen to learn how.--------------------------------------Parenting culture in the US has come a long way in terms of recognizing and validating our kids' emotions. And at the same time, we're seeing more instances of the “accidentally permissive parent”. Why Permissive Parenting HappensIn a recent study of parents who were practicing gentle parenting principles, 40% said that they actually don't know what they're doing.Many of these parents have values around staying calm during a conflict, not yelling, identifying and naming their child's emotions and trying to help their kid cope with those emotions. They're trying to break cycles of shame and punishment and pain. This is amazing and beautiful. But it is incomplete, because they don't know what to do with the misbehavior. There isn't really language around setting limits or having consequences. This confusion over, “Ok, I validated their emotion. Now what?” is why I teach the limit setting formula and the concept of restitution. When you're calm and you put limits, consequences and connection all together, you are teaching your child how to integrate all the parts of their brain. It's a complete parenting model. Over time, you end up with an emotionally healthy person who knows how to manage their feelings in ways that work for them and others. That is our goal. How to Avoid Being an Accidentally Permissive ParentMany moms who are interested in gentle parenting (also called compassionate or nonviolent parenting) are familiar with the first two steps of the Calm Mama Process: Calm and Connect.In CALM, you regulate your own emotions. This might include healing from past trauma and definitely includes managing your stress levels. In CONNECT, we name, validate and emotionally coach our kids through their Big Feeling Cycles.I believe we need to take connection a step further, and help our kids manage their big feelings within limits.When your kid is struggling with a big feeling, you might feel like you can't set a boundary. You might want to let the misbehavior go because they're already upset. You don't want to bring on more big feelings by dealing with the misbehavior. You can be firm while still recognizing your kid's feelings. In a situation where a kid is throwing things or hitting, this might look like The Hard No. “Everyone stays safe here. You can have your big feelings, but you cannot hit me.” LIMIT SET is the third step. Here, you set clear limits and what your child may do (or what you're willing to do), and hold your boundaries. For example, you tell your child they can play outside after they've finished their...

Good decision-making is not about omniscience or clairvoyance—it's more about resilience, according to today's guest, decision engineer Michelle Florendo. “Decision-making is harder than ever before, and it's not your fault,” Michelle says. “People feel like they ‘should just know' how to decide.” More About Michelle: Michelle Florendo is a decision engineer and executive coach who is passionate about teaching people how to make decisions with less stress and more clarity, from the small, consistent microdecisions over time that governs how you show up as a leader to the big macrodecisions you make about what direction to take next in business or life. Over the past decade, she has shown hundreds of driven professionals how to use the principles of decision science to grow their impact and fulfillment. She served on the inaugural coaching team for Seth Godin's altMBA, was a founding member of the Forbes Coaches Council, and helps train new coaches as a Faculty Coach at Berkeley Executive Coaching Institute. Michelle helped redesign the decision-making module in Stanford's famous Designing Your Life course and has taught courses on decision making for Stanford Continuing Studies, and hosts the podcast Ask a Decision Engineer.

In this conversation, Keltie Maguire and Renae Sager discuss Renae's journey to becoming a mom, and how she went from being a hard no to eventually deciding to have a child. She talks about the challenges and mixed feelings she had during the first few months of motherhood, and how her experience has evolved during the first year of her son's life.  You'll hear about how: Confidence is not about being unwaveringly self-assured all the time, but rather,  embracing both self-doubt and confidence. The decision to have children is personal and can change over time. Motherhood is a journey that evolves and improves. You can connect with own wants and needs by taking small steps to honor them. You shouldn't let the fear of disappointing others dictate your decisions. — and a host of other topics related to Renae's decision to become a mom.

Whether it's during the holidays or just on the drive to or from school, meltdowns and tantrums are part of parenting life. In this short and sweet episode, you'll learn why tantrums happen and get tools and tips for how to handle a meltdown, help your kid deal with the impact of their behavior and cut down the frequency, duration and intensity of big feeling cycles. Why Is Your Kid Having A Meltdown?You might call it a meltdown, a temper tantrum or a fit. I like to call it a big feeling cycle. I like to use this term for a couple of reasons. First, it reminds you that this situation is temporary. Cycles typically have a beginning and an end, and your child's big feeling cycle is no different. This can be really helpful when you're in it and it feels like it's going to go on forever. Second, I want you to recognize that feelings are the root of this behavior. Sometimes, your kid has really big, overwhelming feelings that they don't know what to do with. And the strategies they use to cope with those feelings (like hitting, kicking, yelling, blaming, etc.) might not be ideal. Their brain has thoughts about some circumstance that they don't like or that is uncomfortable. This triggers the big feelings. Meltdowns are often triggered when you tell your child no or correct their behavior. They don't know what to do with the big fear, anger, sadness or other feelings they're experiencing, so their body takes over and they do anything they can in order to soothe themselves. Of course, we don't want our kids to hit, kick, and throw things when they get upset, so what's a mama to do? How To Handle A MeltdownThe first priority during a meltdown is to keep everyone safe. If your kid is doing some kind of behavior that hurts others, step in and use the Hard No. Say something like, “It's okay to feel sad. It's not okay to hit.” Be firm here. Separate kids if you need to.The Hard No is just about facts (no moralizing, lecturing or logic). Your feelings are okay. Your strategy isn't working. That's all. In most cases, everyone is safe. You just have a kid who is melting down. Maybe they are complaining, whining or crying. The two things that calm and soothe a big feeling cycle most are connection and moving the body. Step 1: Recognize that your kid is in a big feeling cycleYour brain might see your kid's behavior as a threat, so you'll need to remind yourself that this is a big feeling cycle. It's happened before, and it will end. Step 2: Validate the emotionCome alongside your child to validate and help name their emotion, either out loud or inside your own heart. This is the Connection Tool. You can say something like, “Honey, you're kicking and screaming. Are you feeling sad? Okay, that makes sense.”Just your connection and validation will be soothing to them. It's important to recognize that you can't use the Connection Tool to end a big feeling cycle. You have to ride the wave and let the cycle complete itself. Our goal in validating and naming the emotion and offering solutions is not to interrupt the big feeling cycle but to decrease the length and intensity of it. Step 3: Offer solutionsNext, you can ask them to tell you more about how they're feeling and what's happening. Or, they might need to show you. The idea is to replace the strategy that they're using with one that is more “acceptable”. We're giving them a way to move through the emotion and push it...

Inspired by a recently anatomy image of the relationship between the psoas muscle and the lumbar plexus nerves, this episode shares my thoughts and approach to "tight" psoas muscles and poor hip flexor performance. I discuss the role the psoas plays with the viscera, nervous system, and movement and offer my thoughts on assessment and simple treatments that don't really involve endless stretching, smashing, or strengthening of the psoas muscle.

As “recovering people pleaser” Natalie Lue opens her book, The Joy of Saying No, “Suppressing and repressing my needs, desires, expectations, feelings, and opinions to try to influence and control other people's feelings and behavior was as natural to me as breathing. I thought it was normal to tell people what they want to hear (read: lie) to make them feel better. I believed I was ticking the boxes of being a Good Person by being kind, generous, hardworking, conscientious, loving, eager to help, attractive, and intelligent, and doing what others needed and wanted.” If you, too, are ticking “Good Person” boxes while making yourself miserable, this episode is for you. Natalie and I discuss the five types of people pleasers, what we continue to struggle with today despite decades of awareness-building, and how to build the skill of saying no. More About Natalie: Natalie Lue used to have very low self-esteem, a litany of problems including bad boundaries, toxic relationships with emotionally unavailable and shady folk, and a crippling immune system disease, but this all changed in the summer of 2005. Now, she is a recovering people pleaser. She's the author of The Joy of Saying No: A Simple Plan to Stop People Pleasing, Reclaim Boundaries, and Say Yes to the Life You Want and for 8 years hosted The Baggage Reclaim Sessions podcast. Natalie helps people learn how to reclaim themselves from their emotional baggage and increase emotional availability through self-care, making a profound difference in their lives via her substack On Knowing Yourself.
