We are so excited to have our mom, Linda Eyre, join us in this week's episode as we chat about parenting through the generations. We discuss the differences and similarities between parenting when our mom had young kids, through Saren and Shawni, to Saydi, who's in the middle, and then Charity, who still has young kids. We hope you can relate as we talk about the challenges as well as the good things about our time of parenting.

On today's episode of the "Helping Families Be Happy" podcast, host Adina Oberman will discuss the topic of "Attitude of Gratitude" with Richard Eyre, who is one-half of the renowned author duo, Richard and Linda Eyre. With a writing career spanning four decades, the Eyers are New York Times #1 best-selling authors who have appeared on major national talk shows, including Oprah and Today. Their books, which emphasize family and relationships, have been translated into multiple languages and have garnered them opportunities to lecture in over fifty countries. Episode Highlights 02:31: Richard mentions his experience writing for well-known publishers such as Simon and Schuster, Random House, McGraw Hill, Penguin, and Golden Books. He expresses personal dissatisfaction with the bureaucracy of some major publishers. 03:17: Richard expresses a desire for a publishing partner rather than just a publisher due to the inconsistent treatment they received based on the success of their books. 04:20: Richard provides a brief history of the book on gratitude, mentioning its original title as "The Thankful Heart" and describing it as a comprehensive exploration of the philosophy of gratitude. 04:51: Around 30 years ago, Richard's family started sending Thanksgiving cards instead of Christmas cards. Richard would write a poem about gratitude to be included in these cards. 05:44: Richard introduces a book called "Thankful Heart" which later was condensed into a gratitude journal called "Daily Thanks." The "Daily Thanks" gratitude journal has a section for each month, starting in November and each month has a different theme or focus for gratitude. 06:12: Richard shares a quote from the book which emphasizes that gratitude is essentially a form of happiness that we can control. 08:18: Richard speaks about the evolving nature of gratitude, and how the journal has different perspectives for each month. He shares his personal experience with the journal and describes how January in the journal is about becoming more aware of one's senses and writing about new sensations each day. 10:13: Richard stresses the importance of self-care, especially for mothers who tend to neglect their own well-being while taking care of others. He shares a personal anecdote about advising a stressed woman with young children to keep a gratitude journal. 12:16: Richard discusses the challenges of staying positive during tough times and the importance of gratitude in shedding a positive light on life. He emphasizes that even amidst challenging days, finding just one thing to be grateful for can shift the perspective to a more positive one. 13:21: Richard discusses the different approaches people take to gratitude journaling, mentioning that many choose to practice it at night, reflecting on their day. He shares the perspective of those who practice it in the morning to set a positive tone for the day. 14:59: Adina agrees with Richard's points, highlighting the challenge of finding a starting point and carving out time for gratitude in one's daily routine. 15:43: Richard talks about his experience of transitioning from sending Christmas cards to sending Thanksgiving cards and emphasizes the innate ability of children to express gratitude and how they can teach adults to be more appreciative. 17:09: Richard reflects on the beauty of late autumn in Park City, UT and shares a poem from the Gratitude Journal for the month of November. The poem beautifully captures the essence of gratitude and reflection during the autumn season, leading up to Thanksgiving. 18:25: Adina speaks about the importance of being mindful and grateful amidst daily responsibilities and highlights the idea of sharing and how it affects perspective. 20:13: Richard links gratitude to Christmas and explains a family tradition: giving gifts on Christmas Eve focuses on gratitude, while Christmas morning is about receiving from Santa Claus. 21:57: Christmas can be used as an opportunity to teach gratitude. Richard recounts how his family used to write thank-you letters to Santa Claus the day after Christmas. 22:42: Richard stresses the importance of gratitude. Suggests sitting down with children before gift-giving occasions to teach them the value of being grateful to make both the gift giver and the receiver feel happy. 24:43: Adina narrates an incident where they donated toys to an empty donation box, which was a special moment of realization and gratification for both the adults and the kids in her family. 25:24: Richard discusses the profound connection between gratitude and generosity, emphasizing that the two are inseparably linked and explores the contrast between gratitude and an entitlement attitude highlighting how developing gratitude in children naturally leads to developing generosity. Key Points: Richard Eyre emphasizes the "Attitude of Gratitude" through practices like sending Thanksgiving cards and gratitude journaling. Richard believes gratitude is a controllable form of happiness and stresses its importance for well-being. Richard highlights the connection between gratitude and generosity and suggests ways to nurture these values in children.

Have you ever driven in a city that isn't well planned? The roads are often too narrow for the amount of traffic, and the flow of streets seem to have no discernible pattern. Navigating in such a place can be tricky and chaotic. In contrast, a city that has planned ahead of time what they want long term often has wide, orderly streets, and the initial time and thought investment pays back tenfold as their city runs much smoother as it grows. In this episode, we talk about using this theory of infrastructure in our own families. It takes some time upfront, but in the long run, it makes our family run sooo much more smoothly and makes parenting easier, while intentionally aligning it with our values. We discuss the systems that we have tried out in our own homes over the years that have proven themselves to be priceless.

"My kids never help", "It's like pulling teeth", "Our family life feels disconnected", "They don't care about me or what I do for them"; frustration over the lack of help in our homes from our children can send us into a spiral of hard days. The sentiment that "kids will be kids" and we need to cater to their whims can topple the structure of our families. In this episode, with the help of Hunter, Gather, Parent by Michaleen Doucleff, we are going to challenge the Western assumptions we all hold about parenting to bring a breath of fresh air and an ease to our parenting that just may revolutionize the way you think about your home environment!

Becoming Your Best | The Principles of Highly Successful Leaders
If you have to think about your primary focus, would you say it's your achievements or your relationships? Do you spend most of your time, thinking of new strategies and business plans or nurturing personal relationships with your loved ones? Although we all crave recognition, success, and money to provide a comfortable life for our families, none of that would mean anything if we don't have a meaningful relationship with them. In this episode, Rick Eyre, the first-ever guest on this podcast, revisits us to share another set of golden nuggets, this time about grandparenting and relationship building. Rick is a best-selling author, podcast host, facilitator, and speaker. He and his wife Linda are two of the most popular speakers in the world on parenting and families.

Rick also explains how most of his teachings about grandparenting apply to leadership and team building, and much more.

“The best advice I can give myself as a dad is to believe in your impossibles.” Ben Richter on DADicated Ben Richter is an amazing man, dad and entrepreneur. He is a father of seven from two marriages who has learned to navigate the complexities of blending different family cultures with multiple children of different ages. Ben has built one of the premier airport logistics companies and has managed to develop effective habits for balancing his work and family life. He emphasizes the importance of being fully present for your children by minimizing phone and work time when you're together. In this session, we discuss various valuable principles of fatherhood. Ben shares how he implemented “checkmark” systems from a relatively young age to teach children to consciously reflect on their behavior in a tangible and quantifiable way. He explains how building positive communicative habits into our own and in our children's everyday lives yield extraordinary results - and that difficulties are inevitable, but learning how to respond to them is what really counts. Ben is truly inspirational in terms of his outlook on life and what he has achieved as a father and businessman and I thoroughly enjoyed our session together! The most powerful takeaways for me as a dad were: - Teaching children to exercise gratitude is a powerful way to influence their ability to respond to and to evaluate their daily lives. - Focusing on incremental improvement on your performance as a parent is hugely rewarding, rather than focusing on missteps or regretting mistakes. Immediately focus on being the best version of yourself as soon as you walk in the door to be with your children. - Daily and weekly recaps with a quantifiable checkmark system can engrain lasting positive behaviors in children. I was on the fence about checkmarks for a long time but have to say that Ben's perspectives made a lot of sense to me and have implemented a few of his ideas at home. So far this works really well. If you find these concepts interesting I recommend you read “The Entitlement Trap: How to Rescue Your Child with a New Family System of Choosing, Earning, and Ownership” by Linda Eyre and Richard Eyre. It goes well together with this podcast and the concepts described are complementary and valuable. Thanks for listening, I hope you'll enjoy this session!

The Utah legislature started the 2022 session with two bills that were somewhat controversial - one that would undo the Salt Lake and Summit County health orders to require 30 day mask mandates, and one that would remove the authority of local governments to address the pandemic or health emergencies in general. KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson wanted to get some feedback from her guests on whether the legislature should be overruling local health departments and elected officials on these matters. Her guests this week include Jeanetta Williams, President of the Salt Lake Branch of the NAACP and NAACP Tri-State Conference of Idaho, Nevada and Utah, Linda Eyre, author speaker and columnist, and Molly Miller, founder of Miller Media and Communications.

The Utah legislature received more than 3,000 emails from more than 900 people asking lawmakers to use the maps of the independent redistricting commission. They ignored those emails and implemented their own maps, which many are calling gerrymandering. KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson wanted to get her guests' opinion on the legislature's action. Her guests this week include Jeanetta Williams, President of the Salt Lake Branch of the NAACP and NAACP Tri-State Conference of Idaho, Nevada and Utah, author, speaker and columnist Linda Eyre, and Molly Miller, founder of Miller Media and Communications.

KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson has heard so much hyperbole about the Voting Rights Bill that went down to defeat again in the Senate this week. She wanted to know what was in the bill, and it's only 6 things. They're really simple things. She lists them for her guests on A Woman's View to get their take. Her guests this week include Jeanetta Williams, President of the Salt Lake Branch of the NAACP and NAACP Tri-State Conference of Idaho, Nevada and Utah, author, speaker and columnist Linda Eyre, and Molly Miller, founder of Miller Media and Communications.

The Utah legislature has extra money. That's always a good problem to have. They are trying to decide how to give some of it back. Should they give an income tax rebate, one tenth of one percent? Should they give a food tax rebate? Or should they just take the tax off food? KSL Newsradio's Amanda Dickson wanted to ask her guests on A Woman's View what they would do. Her guests this week include Jeanetta Williams, President of the Salt Lake Branch of the NAACP and NAACP Tri-State Conference of Idaho, Nevada and Utah, author, speaker and columnist Linda Eyre, and Molly Miller, founder of Miller Media and Communications.

Amanda Dickson learned this week that the so-called "Bridge to Nowhere" actually went somewhere. It went to an island in Alaska with an airport used by 250,000 people a year. Is it possible these earmarks, monies put aside for one district or another for pet projects, sometimes called pork if you're not in favor of them, are necessary for Washington to work?

Key Takeaways The importance of raising children who are happy and motivated Understand the benefits of implementing a family economy How a Family Traditions Calendar can have lasting and permanent affect Why documenting and sharing family history can empower your child Giving your children ownership to empower and avoid entitlement Why some failures can lead to major success The ways that giving children more can actually give them less Episode Timeline [1:34] How Richard Eyre dedicated his life's work to healthy families and parenting [5:16] Parenting to raise motivated and happy children amid wealth [7:57] Formal documentation and structure in the family environment [11:29] Teaching families how to have a family economy [14:44] Richard and Linda's family traditions calendar [20:37] Empowering children through ancestor storybooks [23:12] Rescuing your child from the entitlement track [26:55] Giving kids ownership to empower and motivate [29:29] #1 New York Bestseller, Teaching Your Children Values [33:37] Books and publishing with insights on new book, Happiness Paradox [37:32] Richard's public failure leads to bestselling success [40:52] Creating free online access to the Eyre books [44:45] Richard Eyre's landing page [48:08] Richard's belief that if we give our children more, we give them less Standout Quotes “We just found that there was a tremendous resonance with the idea of raising healthy kids and looking at it as a management opportunity, a management challenge.” – Richard Eyre [04:37] "Our goal is to help parents raise responsible, motivated kids. That is a tricky thing to do in a household of affluence." – Richard Eyre [07:11] "It's the idea that you as a parent have one single focus each month you're going to do well. If you're trying to teach multiple values or multi-task on that you're never going to do it. Just focus one whole month on honesty, suddenly everything that happens is an object lesson.” – Richard Eyre [31:20] “It was on the heels of that defeat that we wrote this book, Teaching Your Children Values. One year after losing the governatorial race, the book went to number 1. The first family book in 50 years to get to number 1 on the New York Times Bestseller. One door closed but another one opened.” – Richard Eyre [39:38] "To those of us who have spent our lives in or around business, I think management by objective always resonates. People who are clear on what their goals are and where they're trying to get are the ones who succeed. It's quite remarkable that that very basic sort of practical thinking has rarely penetrated areas of relationships and families and it should." – Richard Eyre [46:40] "If you are clear on what the goals are that you have for your family and your children, for your family institution it doesn't guarantee success, but it certainly allows you to measure your success and how well you are doing." – Richard Eyre [47:13] "We need to find ways to pass on what we have without it being a gift that's not value. We have to find a way to share responsibility and to teach the concept of earned ownership rather than running the huge risk of entitlement, spoiling children, putting them on a path of low motivation by giving them too much." -- Richard Eyre [49:07] *For more episodes go to * BusinessOfFamily.net (https://www.businessoffamily.net/) Sign up for The Business of Family Newsletter at https://www.businessoffamily.net/newsletter (https://www.businessoffamily.net/newsletter) Follow Mike on Twitter @MikeBoyd (https://twitter.com/MikeBoyd) If you feel it's appropriate, I'd so appreciate you taking 30 seconds to Leave a Review on iTunes (http://getpodcast.reviews/id/1525326745), I receive a notification of each review.
