If you're parenting little ones now, the idea of raising pre-teens or teenagers might feel far off—or a little intimidating. These years often come with a tough reputation, but what if they didn't have to?In this insightful episode, we're joined by pediatrician Dr. Hina Talib to talk about how we can start preparing now to enter the teen years with more confidence, connection, and compassion. Too often, teens get labeled as the problem, when in reality, it's our job as parents to prepare and empower them to navigate the challenges ahead.Dr. Talib shares powerful tools to help our kids feel more respected during this season of life—including the importance of putting ourselves in their shoes, approaching situations with curiosity (not judgment), and creating a safe space for open conversation.We dive into:Why starting family traditions now creates strong connection laterHow to foster independence in preteens to build confidence and resilienceBody image and how to talk about our kids' bodies in ways that don't focus on weightThe truth about teen mental health—and the most important (and surprising!) thing we can do to support itWhether your kids are in preschool or approaching middle school, this is a must-listen conversation that will leave you feeling more prepared for what's ahead—and more empowered to raise confident, connected teens.Follow Dr. Talib on Instagram and LinkedInLINKS AND RESOURCES:LMNT: Free Sample Pack with purchase:  drinkLMNT.com/HERSELFVUORI: 20% off first purchase at: http://vuoriclothing.com/herself Let's connect!HERSELF PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/herselfpodcastHERSELF INSTAGRAM: http://instagram.com/herselfpodcastMEET AMY: http://instagram.com/ameskieferMEET ABBY: http://instagram.com/abbyrosegreenThis episode was brought to you by the Pivot Ball Change Network.

(Luke 8:12) 2 Corinthians 4:4 – In their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. Does Your Heart Hear BUT STALL OUT? (Luke 8:13) Matthew 7:13–14 – Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many.

(Luke 8:14) 1 Timothy 6:10 – For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.

AUDIO TRANSCRIPT We all love quick fixes, don't we?If we have a problem, we wanna solve itin the quickest and simplest way possible.And our bent towards quick fixespops up almost every single day.The router is acting up, so what do you do?All right, try to be a bit louder so I can hear you.What do you do when the router's acting up?You unplug it, then you plug it back in, right?You have a pounding headache.What's your go-to when you have a flare up?Just pop a few ibuprofen or Tylenol to take the edge off.And when the edge doesn't grow dull or you get so annoyed,when that router issue isn't fixed by the unplugand plug back in, you get so frustrated.The ultimate example of an easy fix from my lifeis the N64, the Nintendo 64, whoever owned one growing up.For those of you who weren't born sometime in the 1900s,let me make it clear that these gameswere not played on discs.You couldn't download them digitally.You had to play them on cartridges.And for you, 80s and 90s kids in the room,what was the quick fix to the problemof the game glitching or freezing?The harmonica method, right?(splat)We thought there was dust in the cartridgeand you had to blow it out.According to my internet research,people are divided over the effectivenessof the harmonica method.Some people say that it was the placebothat made you feel better, but didn't actually do anything.While others say, yeah, it was a short-term fix.It worked for a bit, but it caused long-term damage.According to these gamers online,the moisture from your breath corrodedthe inside of the cartridge or something, I don't know.But all of these nerds online agree about one simple fact.This was a quick fix,not a long-term solution.It either did nothing to help the problemor it made the problem even worse.As you saw in the promo video a few momentsago, we have been hyper-focused on one major themefrom Scripture over the past nine months.God wants your heart.He doesn't just want your external rule following,He wants your internal love and devotion.But maybe you've heard this theme of God wants your heartpreached about Sunday after Sunday,but you still aren't there.Maybe you know what God wants from you,for some reason you don't want to give it to Him.Your heart is distant from the Lord.Your heart is cold towards His Word.There is something off inside of you.You need to get to a better place,but you don't know how to get there.And for weeks, months, or even years,you've been trying all the quick fixes,but nothing is working.The problem just keeps getting worse and worse and worse.You have a serious heart problemthat you cannot solve on your own.If that's you, I have a two-part question to askthat you don't have to answer out loud,but you do need to answer in your heart.Are you ready to put away the quick fixesand stop doing things your way?Are you ready to grab ahold of God's long-termsolutions and start doing things His way?If the answer is yes, I have to warn you,it's gonna hurt.It's gonna take God's painful scalp cuts,scalpel cuts to truly lead you to the change that you need.True change requires an open heart procedure.Over the next month,we're gonna undergo four surgical solutionsto our heart problems, evaluating our hearts,confessing from our hearts,giving thanks with our hearts, and guarding our hearts.As you may have noticed, all these surgical solutionsrequire your cooperation and participation.None of these solutions will be easy,but they are guaranteed success.If you submit to your divine doctorand let Him do His work in your heart.So before we continue, let's go to the Lordand ask for His help.Please pray for me and I will pray for you.Father, we thank you for this most important appointmentof the week.This isn't just a throwaway time.We come if we have a break in the schedule.There's a time we come together as your peopleto worship you and to come under the teaching of your Word.Or may you do a work that only you can.May you work in human hearts.May you bring conviction.May you challenge.May you build up.May you bring life where there is none.What I can do, none of those things, only you can.Preach a much better message in people's heartsthan I ever could with my mouth.We ask all these things in Jesus' name, amen.So the first surgical solution to your heart problemis found in Luke chapter eight, verses four through 15.Please turn there with me.Luke chapter eight, verses four through 15.At this point in his ministry,Jesus is being followed around by crowdswho want to experience his miraclesand hear him preach messages that are unlike anyone else's.In our passage for this morning,Jesus teaches the crowd a parable.And as a refresher, a parableis an everyday story with a spiritual meaning.It is a work of fiction that points to the realityof God's kingdom and the salvation that Jesus offers.Let's read one of the greatest parablesin Luke chapter eight, verses four through eight.And when a great crowd was gatheringand people from town to town came to him,Jesus said in a parable,a sower went out to sow his seed.And as he sowed, some fell on the pathand was trampled underfootand the birds of the air devoured it.And some fell on the rock.And as it grew up, it withered awaybecause it had no moisture.And some seed fell among thornsand the thorns grew up with it and choked it.And some fell into good soiland grew and healed at a hundredfold.As Jesus said these things,he called out, "He who has ears to hear, let him hear."So a sower is in his field,scattering seed anywhere and everywhere that he goes.And some of this seed lands on good soilbut most of it lands on bad soil.Some of the seed falls along the pathwhere people stomp on itand it is quickly picked up by birds.Some falls on soil where it looks goodbut there is a bedrock underneath the soilthat you cannot see.So the seed has no moisture.It can't develop a root systemso it withers away and dies.Some of the seed falls on thornswhere it is choked out.But some of the seed falls on good soilwhere it steadily but surely grows over timeand leads to an abundant harvest.That's the story.And Jesus closes out by saying,"He who has ears to hear, let him hear."Why does he say that?What's the point of saying that?Well, the modern day equivalent is on the screen behind me.Can any of you young people decipher this for us?What is it?Thank you, Sierra.If you know, you know.Jesus is saying you're either gonna understandwhat I'm saying or you won't.Well, the disciples themselves are left confusednot really understanding the story.So they work up the courage to go up to Jesusand say, "Hey, Jesus, great story."But what in the world was that about?And check out Jesus' response in verses nine through 10.And when his disciples asked him what this parable meant,he said, "To you, it has been given to know the secrets"of the kingdom of God,"but for others they are in parables."So that seeing they may not see and hearing"they may not understand."Now you may be thinking, hold on a minute.It seems like Jesus is sayingthat he taught in parables to confuse some people.Yeah, you get a gold star for observation.That is exactly what he is saying.This may be a hard pill to swallow,but Jesus taught these parablesboth to reveal and to conceal the truth.He taught these parables to reveal the truthto those whose hearts are soft and ready to receive it.But he also told these parables to conceal the truthfrom those whose hearts are hardenedand resolved to reject it.The good news is if you truly want to understandthe parables, you will.But if you don't really careabout understanding the parables, you won't.It's that simple and clear cut.But thankfully Jesus does something that he rarely does.He explains the meaning of the parable.Praise the Lord, isn't that so convenientfor every single one of us in this room?Jesus is like that teacher who tells youwhat's on the final examand lets you go to the back of the book to find the answers.So let's go to the back of the bookand see Jesus answer for what this parable meansin verses 11 through 15.Now the parable is this.The seed is the word of God.The ones along the path are those who have heard it.And the devil comes and takes away the word from their heartsso that they may not believe and be saved.And the ones on the rock are thosewhen they hear the word, receive it with joy,but these have no root.They believe for a while and in time of testing fall away.And as for what fell among the thorns,they are those who hear, but as they go on their way,they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasuresof life and their fruit does not mature.As for that in the good soil,they are those who hearing the word hold it fastin an honest and good heart and bear fruit with patience.Jesus clearly spells out everything for us.The seed is the word of God that is scatteredby the sower by anyone who faithfully shares the word.The seed of the word is scattered every single Sundayas someone stands before you to proclaimwhat God has to say.The seed of the word is scatteredwhenever you teach the lesson back in Harvest Academyor do family devotions with your kids.The seed of the word is scatteredwhenever you share the gospelwith that unsafe family member, friend, coworker, or neighbor.And according to Jesus, the scattered seed of the wordlands on four different types of soils,which represents four different types of human hearts.And Jesus is not talking about the organthat's bumping in your chest right now.He's talking about who you really are on the inside.Your heart is the source of all your emotions,your affections, and your motivations.Your heart is constantly taking in everything you seehere and experiencing and evaluating it.And according to God's word,you don't just have physical ears on the sides of your head,you also have spiritual ears on your heart.And these spiritual ears can either hear the truthand reject it or can hear the truth and accept it.Three of these soils,three of these heart hearers in this parablereject the word, which leads to eternal destruction.Only one soil, only one heart here accepts the wordand is saved and has eternal life.Do you remember those hearing evaluationsyou had to take back in elementary schoolwhere you shuffled the school library or some random room?You put on the headphones,where they play different noisesat different frequencies and decibels.And what would you do if you could hear the noise?Show me what you would do.You raise your hand, right?Or you kept it down if you couldn't hear it.And depending on how the evaluation went,you could either go about the rest of your day as normalor you'd be sent to an ear doctor.Well, this parable is a heart hearing evaluation.It gauges how your heart hearsand responds to the word of God.It reveals if you are currently rejecting Jesus Christin His gospel or if you've actually accepted Him or not.It reveals how serious of a heart problem you haveand how serious of a heart surgery you need.So after one of the longest introductionsin the history of this church,it's time to put on the spiritual headphonesand take your heart hearing evaluation.First question of the heart hearing evaluation.Does your heart hear but disbelief?Does your heart hear but disbelief?Let's start with the pathway soilwhere the seed is crushed and eaten by birds.Listen again to Jesus' explanation in verse 12.The ones along the path are those who have heard,then the devil comes and takes away the wordfrom their hearts so that they may not believeand be saved.The birds stand in for Satan himselfwho has a mission to accomplish,to keep unbelievers from truly hearing the gospel messageand accepting it.The apostle Paul speaks to this ministry of Satanin 2nd Corinthians 4/4.He says, "The God of this world, that Satan,"has blinded the minds of the unbelievers"to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel"of the glory of Christ who is the image of God."Do you know that Satan and his demonsare faithful church attenders?I guarantee they have a better track record of attendancethan anyone in this room.They never miss a Sunday.But they don't show up to worship God,they show up to deceive and to divert attention.Satan wants you to daydream during the messageand think about what's for lunch afterwards.Like that even matters at all.Satan wants you to have sleepy eyesand a head that bobs up and down, up and down.He wants you to be restless and fidgety in your seat.He wants you to absentmindedly doodle on your outlinerather than take diligent notes.He wants you to be doubtful regarding the things of God.He wants you to suffer from this condition of believingthat God could never love or forgive someone like you.He wants you to hear the word, but disbelieve the word.Is that where you are this morning?Is your heart problem that you're disinterested inand maybe even disgusted by?What is preached behind the pulpit here?Or shared with you by faithful Christian relatives and friends?Maybe you're here to make your family happy,but you're not buying into all this Jesus stuff.Maybe the teachings of the Bible seem outdated,harsh and even harmful to you.Maybe when you look at this book,it just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.If I've described you at all,I wanna share with you that I am so glad that you're here.And I have been praying for you all week.I've been praying that Satan would not stealthe seed of the word from your heart once again.I've been praying that you would hear the wordwith fresh ears and a willing heart.I've been praying that you would see yourselfas a sinner and Jesus Christ as the only savior.Turn from your disbelief, turn to Jesus Christand believe in what he accomplishedthrough his perfect life, his sacrificial death,and his resurrection from the grave.If you do, he will wipe away all of your sins.He will give you his perfect righteousness.He will give you a new heart that has new lifeand a new love.That is what faith in Christ will get you.Let me ask, what has disbelief in Christ ever gotten you?Nothing but an anxious and dissatisfied heart.If you continue with that disbelief,you will experience spiritual death that lasts forever.Second question of the heart hearing evaluation,does your heart hear but stall out?Does your heart hear but stall out?Next up is the rocky soil.Let's read verse 13."And the ones on the rock are those,when they hear the word, receive it with joy,but they have no root.They believe for a while in time of testing fall away."This kind of heart hears the word and seems to accept it.There is an immediate willingness to follow Jesus.There is quick growth.Bad habits are put away and new habits are formed.This person feels happy.Boy, oh boy, it's fun to be a Christian.Life is the best.But then times get tough.They experience hardship.And life isn't so great anymore.It isn't so fun to be a Christian anymore.The view ahead used to be filled with hope and with life,but now it is full of darkness and uncertainty.Back in high school, my friends and I were drivingin two separate cars to a concert.When the car I was in stalled and came to a halton the side of the road.And the other car full of guys parked right behind us.And my friend Robert, who was driving the car I was in,got out.He popped the hood, which was basically an empty gesturebecause none of us had jumper cablesor knew how a car worked.I wish Ben Maul was there that day.That would have been fantastic.He could have helped us.And so Robert pretended like he knewhe was doing looking under the hood.And then he called his stepdad to come and help.But the problem was the other car full of guyswas getting antsy because they still wantedto go to the concert.And the driver of that car said,"Hey guys, we got one less spot.We got one more spot less in this car.Two of you are gonna have to stay herebecause we're not waiting."And that made me so mad.I was like, "Seriously?I'm not gonna go have fun at the concertwhile we leave people stranded here."Well, my friend Ryan didn't feel the same way.He said, "I'll go with you."And he jumped in the car.They sped off while we were coughing up dustfrom their speedy getaway.And we waited for Robert's stepdadfor what felt like hours.And it was the dead of summer, so it was hot.It was hot like this auditorium often is, right?And we got so desperate,we drank the emergency water in the trunk,which must have been there for years'cause it tasted like warm motor oil.And eventually Robert's dad, his stepdad showed upand he said, "Hey, I called a tow truck.It's gonna come soon.And I can still take you to the concert if you want to."How do you think we felt about that?We're like, "No, we're totally over that.Just take us back home."We were so done with that concert.The day had started out so well.It was a ton of fun.Then the car stalled outand we were thrown for a loop.The concert was no longer exciting and appealing to uslike it used to be.That happens to so many people who profess faithin Jesus Christ.They seem to be doing just fineas they drive along on the Christian journey,but then they hit an unexpected bump in the roadand totally stall out.Family members stopped talking to thembecause of their new beliefs.Friends make fun of them for their new ridiculous standards.Coworkers belittle them for missing happy hourto go to small group.Romantic interests threaten to break up the relationshipif you don't cut it out with this religious nonsense.Instead of persevering through these tough timesand moving forward, they give up on Jesus.They retreat and go back to their old lives.Following Jesus was convenient for a season,but then there was too high of a price to pay.Have you already given up?Are you tempted to give up right now?You have to understand that Jesus never promisesan easy life if you follow him.That's not listed in the brochure.True Christians are not exempt from suffering and persecution.Actually, true Christians are targetsfor suffering and persecution.Listen to Matthew chapter 7 verses 13 through 14."For the gate is wide and the way is easythat leads to destruction,and those who enter by it are many.For the gate is narrow and the way is hardthat leads to life, and those who find it are few."Let me ask you, what is the smarter play?Easy for several decades in this lifeand horribly hard in hell foreveror hard for a little bit in this lifeand easy for all of eternity in heaven?Which is the better option?Anyone can start out well, but very few finish well.A quick start out the gate doesn't mean muchif you don't cross the finish line.Only those who hear the word and persevere in the Wordpossess a transformed heart.So please do not give up.Do not pick up your ball and go home.If you already have, it's not too late to get back in the game.It's not too late to jump back on that racetrackand keep going until the end.Third question of the heart-hearing evaluation.Does your heart hear but get distracted?Does your heart hear but get distracted?Does your heart hear but get distracted?In verse 14, Jesus talks about the thorny soil.And as for what fell among the thorns,they are those who hear, but as they go on their way,they are choked by the cares and riches and pleasures of lifeand their fruit does not mature.This kind of heart here is not at all hostile to Jesus.This person may even claim to be a Christian,know a lot about the Bibleand even sit in church on Sunday.But the knowledge in his or her braindoes not affect his or her heartbecause any growth, any transformationis pushed down by an obsession with the world.It is choked out.Climbing the ladder of achievement,having a stacked financial portfolio,planning for a carefree retirementand raising impressive kids who do impressive thingsis always the front of this person's thinking.They have no interest in hearing what God has to sayabout how they should livebecause they already have a plan for their life.To be clear, I'm not saying it's bad to have a lot of money,invest in the stock market or plan for retirement.It's not bad if you own things,but it is bad when things own you.People often misquote the apostle Pauland say, "Money is the root of evil."Is that what the Bible says?The apostle Paul says it this way,"For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil.It is through this cravingthat some have wandered away from the faithand pierced themselves with many pangs.The greedy longing for more and more and more stuffand success will spiritually bankrupt you."Please be honest with yourself.Are you distracted by the things of this world right now?Are you more excited to receive your direct deposit from work?More than you are excited to receive and read God's word?Does remodeling your house or buying a new carthrill your heart more than worshiping God?My son is almost six years oldand my daughter is three and a half,and they are totally oblivious to the basics of finances.And they have next to no interest in money.If I were to come home and tell them,"Hey, do you want to spend an entire day with me?Or do you want all the money in my various accounts?"What do you think they would say?They want to spend a time with their dad.They would want me more than stuff from me.And please listen to me. This is so important.It is a serious heart problem to want stuff from Godmore than God himself.This is a symptom of a heart that is thorny and distracted.According to Jesus, this kind of heart does not truly know Him.If that's you, please don't push aside this concernand say, "I'll deal with it later."No, deal with it right now.Ask God to take His scalpel and clear the thornsfrom your heart that are keeping you from Him.Let go of the garbage of this worldso you can grab ahold of the treasures of heaven.Final question of the heart-hearing evaluation.Does your heart hear and produce a changed life?Does your heart hear and produce a changed life?Let's see what Jesus has to say about the good soilin verse 15."As for that in the good soil,there are those who hearing the word hold it fastin an honest and good heart and bear fruit with patience."This heart here receives the word and perseveres in the word.It doesn't experience quick growth.It actually grows in a sustainable pattern for the long run.This person has a good and godly heartthat produces good and godly life.This good and godly fruit is a changed life.This good and godly fruit includes ongoing repentance of sin,loving the church, refusing to throw in the towel,sharing their faith, making disciples.The true test of saving faithisn't that you pray to prayer as a kid.Walked an aisle at a revival service,raised your hand or signed a card.There are so many people who grew up in the churchand say that they accepted Christ,but there is nothing different about them now.A past action means nothingif there is no present evidence of God at work in your life.What you did back then doesn't really matterif you're not trusting in Jesus now, loving Jesus now,following Jesus now.The true test of saving faith is a changed life.And it brings my heart so much joy to knowthat many of you in this room are the good soil.You have received the word of Godand it is growing up and taking over your life.It changes how you think, it changes how you speak,it changes how you react.Your heart is good soil.But that doesn't mean that your heart is exempt from heart problems.The temptation to stay still or to backslidewill always be there.You will go through seasons of apathy and depression.There will be times you read the words in these pagesand they mean nothing to you in your heart.You will know what you should do,but you still decide to do what you shouldn't.The question isn't will you experience heart problems?The question is what will you do when you experience heart problems?And we're going to spend the rest of this series answering that question,but I don't want to leave you hanging until next Sunday.So I'm going to provide you with Jesus' own answer to this questionin Revelation 2 verses 4 through 5,where the church in Ephesus gets a personal message from Jesus himself.He says this,"But I have this against you, that you have abandoned the love you had at first.Remember therefore from where you have fallen.Repent and do the works you did at first."Brothers and sisters, have you abandoned your first love?Have you lost the passion that you used to have for Christ when you were first saved?Remember how you used to feel about Him.Remind yourself of how you couldn't get enough of the Bible and impactful sermons.Remind yourself of how you couldn't wait to grab ahold of peopleto tell them all that you were learning, to tell them about Jesus.Don't you miss how things used to be?Don't you want your heart to be on fire for Christ again?You can get back to that point and move so far beyond it,if you repent of your dispassion and do what you did before.Don't wait to make the right choice until you feel like it.Make the right choice so you will feel the right way once again.Now, I know what some of you are thinking as we come to a close with this message.Man, this is a super heavy sermon series for the summer.Don't you realize this July?Mentally, I'm just checked out and on a beach somewhere wearing flip flops.This is the month of rest and relaxation.Not in this church, it's not.We're going to get after it for the next month.We are going to walk out of this building as different peoplewith different heart attitudes at the end of July.We are going to be done with the quick fixes.And instead, we're going to pursue after God's solution to our heart problems.Is anyone else with me?The first step in receiving God's solution to your heart problemis to evaluate the health of your heart.So how is your heart doing?Is it stomped on and disbelieving?Is it rocky and stalled out?Is it thorny and distracted?Or is it good and ready to go?Only one of those hearts will truly hear God's word over the course of this seriesand be changed.The other three, we denied access into heaven one dayand cast into hell.And I don't want that fate for any of you.I want to spend eternity with every single person in this room.As much as I may want to, I can't change your heart.But thankfully, I know the one who can.I hope and pray that the Holy Spirit is cultivating the soil of your heartand preparing you to receive the word in an honest and good heartthat perseveres in patience.He who has ears to hear, let him hear.Let's pray.Father, this is a very weighty passage.Lord, it's obvious that there are serious consequences for rejecting you and rejecting your word.Well, let the very single person in this room, if there is anybody here who does not know you,does not have a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, may today be the day of salvation.May today be the day where the seed lands on the soil of the heart,grows up, takes over, and continues.But Lord, only you can do this.Well, I pray that you'd push away the distractions.You'd push away the worries about what's after service or what's happening tomorrow.I pray that we would fix our minds on Jesus Christ and what He accomplished.And what He offers to every single one of us.And for those of us who do know and love you,where we admit that we are all experiencing heart problems of some kind right now.And we need your assistance. We need your healing.But we do pray at the end of this month, we would look way different than we do this Sunday.We ask all these things in Jesus' name. Amen.

Hey, Heal Squad! We're back with part two of our powerful conversation with Dr. Harold Koplewicz, President of the Child Mind Institute, and this one is packed with real tools every parent needs right now! In this episode, Dr. Koplewicz introduces his framework called “Scaffolding Parenting” and explains how it helps raise emotionally strong, self-regulating kids without hovering or over-fixing. He breaks down the difference between healthy support and helicoptering, and how to know when to step in (and when to let your child build resilience). We also get into the top questions every parent should be asking to emotionally check in with their kids, how to teach emotional literacy from preschool through the teen years, and why routines like family gratitude, reading time, and exercise are essential for mental wellness. These are tools every parent needs in their back pockets, whether your child is 3, 13, or 23!  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS: Scaffolding parenting builds strength without overstepping. It's not about fixing—it's about supporting your child's natural growth, so they feel capable of handling life's challenges with confidence. Your routines are shaping their mental health. Family dinners, reading rituals, and screen-free zones help kids feel safe, connected, and emotionally anchored. Kids need a vocabulary for their feelings. Naming emotions helps children process them. The earlier they can say “I feel nervous” or “I feel proud,” the better they can self-regulate under stress.

Birth can be a beautiful experience, but that doesn't mean it isn't without fear and concerns. After hearing from our community, it's evident that some women feel ready to go! While others feel excited to meet their baby but anxious about the labor and delivery process. We want you to know that ALL of those feelings are valid and so normal! Today's podcast is going to be all about mentally preparing for labor and delivery. We'll be going over some tips to help you feel more confident when it comes time to meet your baby! Our first major tip is to run towards your fears instead of away. Educating yourself with as many resources about your fear can help you feel empowered and prepared. Whether your fear is pain during birth, fear of needing a c-section, or fear you may not receive enough support from your partner, we will go over ways to approach these fears head on. Our second tip is to decide on the person who will be your continuous support person through the labor, delivery, and recovery process. Sometimes this is your partner, but for others that can be a person like your mom, sister, close friend, or doula. This support is not only huge for creating a positive experience, but it is backed by science to have improved outcomes for mom and baby! The final tip is to write a letter to yourself, express how you feel with your upcoming birth, and tell yourself how much you believe in yourself! We believe in you too!If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us @expectingandempowered.

I'm Rachel from the United States. I've been on and off the weight loss wagon for years—start strong on Monday, fall off by Thursday. I know what to do, I've done it before, but lately I just can't seem to stay committed mentally. I want to lose the weight and feel like myself again, but something in my head always pulls me back. How do I mentally commit to losing weight—for real this time?”

Hi everyone! Welcome back to another episode of The Chai on Life Podcast. I'm Alex Segal and today, I have Elisheva Liss, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist on the show. Elisheva works with individuals and couples to help improve their quality of life and relationships — most commonly treating depression, anxiety, relationship problems and anything dealing with intimacy. She has a collaborative approach, which means she looks at her work as a partnership with each client.In this episode, we basically have a mini (or honestly, extended) therapy session about a lot of common issues women may be dealing with in the religious community, outside of it and in the unique time we're living in.As frum Jewish women, we live a beautiful life with holy values. We plan and often host Shabbat meals every week, opening our homes to those who need it. We bake challah, daven, say Tehillim, try to do chesed when we can, often work outside of the home, raise children, try to be a giving and loving wife, find time to learn and grow as people, find time for our own wellbeing and self-care with exercise, preparing healthy meals, maybe even our own therapy, we prepare simchas for our families, make time for friends to nourish ourselves and focus on what's going on in their lives, and so much more — the list goes on.Even just crafting this list — which I'm sure is still missing a lot — shows me just how much we may have on our plates at any given time. So especially when you lean more to the overachieving, perfectionist side of the mental health spectrum, it can often feel like you're not measuring up. We are taught that Hashem gives us time to partner with Hashem in this world, and the worst feeling is to feel like we're not utilizing that potential. How do we know when it's enough? How do we feel okay with just not being able to do it all?So I brought on Elisheva Liss to help me work through this concept. She is a beautiful, well-spoken therapist who actually has her own book called “Find Your Horizon of Healthy Thinking: Hack Your Thoughts and Improve Your Mood” which really was a perfect match for this topic. In our conversation, we speak about the pressures frum women face today, how to feel more comfortable with where we're at in this exact moment and how to use our brains to develop a healthier way of thinking and honestly, enjoy the lives that we're leading.Here, the books she shares in the episode:168 Hours: You Have More Time Than You Think by Laura VanderkamThe Rhythm of Life: Living Every Day with Passion and Purpose by Matthew KellySlowing Down to the Speed of Life — by Richard Carlson and Joseph BaileyBittersweet by Susan CainFollow Elisheva on Instagram here.Join her weekly newsletter here.

This episode is about those moments when life doesn't go according to plan: when things go wrong, fall apart, or just feel too heavy to bear. At these times, mental strength becomes our most valuable refuge. But what does it really mean to be mentally strong? How can we cultivate that strength without becoming rigid or emotionally shut down? We'll be exploring one of my favorite quotes from the great Buddhist master Shantideva: "If something can be done, why worry? If nothing can be done, why worry?" This deceptively simple teaching holds the key to freedom from anxiety, overwhelm, and emotional reactivity. In this episode, we explore practical strategies to move through worry and return to peace, even in the middle of life's messiness. 1. If Something Can Be Done, Why Worry? When facing a challenge that has a solution, taking action (even a very small steps) restores our sense of agency. Can you make a call? Write something down? Apologize? Ask for help? Tiny acts of courage move the mind from helplessness to confidence. But often, we don't take action because our own minds get in the way. 2. If Nothing Can Be Done, Why Worry? Sometimes, there's nothing we can do to change a situation. We have no control over a loss, an illness, or someone else's behavior. This is where mental strength blossoms, not from resistance, but from acceptance. Here are a few practices for these moments: Limit your worry window. Give yourself 20–30 minutes to think it through, write it out, or talk it out. Then gently close the door on worry for the day. This boundary creates emotional breathing room. Let other people be who they are. Much of our suffering comes from trying to manage others' choices. We can still love them and maintain boundaries, but we cannot fix or control them. Let them. Don't believe every thought. Especially the ones that say, "This will never get better," or "I can't handle this." Thoughts are not facts. Watch them arise like clouds, but don't let them storm your peace. Mental strength isn't the absence of emotion or difficulty. It's the quiet courage to respond rather than react—to act when we can and let go when we must. So next time something goes wrong, take a breath and ask yourself: "Can something be done?" If yes, begin. If not, release. That's the wisdom of worry-less living.

Mentally ill inmates are at risk of neglect, dehydration – even starvation. New Yorker staff writer Sarah Stillman joins host Krys Boyd to discuss the four-fold increase since the 1980s of people in jail awaiting trial, the increasingly outsized population of mentally unwell people lacking proper treatment, and the alarming rise in jail deaths that could've been prevented with better supervision.

Today on Can't Be Contained, I'm diving deep into one of the most misunderstood—and straight-up sneaky—challenges most of us face in our lives: burnout. If you're a go-getter, a high achiever, or just trying to keep up with all the demands of daily life, I see you, and I made this episode just for you! This is the kickoff to a brand new mini-series where I tackle all the different faces of burnout—mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual. In this first episode, I'm zeroing in on mental burnout: what it looks like, why it's especially rampant for women (hello, invisible labor and social pressure!), and exactly how I've learned to outsmart it over the past 15 years. I'm sharing my own reflections, research, and honest stories about running on empty, plus the best tools I've discovered to reclaim my energy and sanity. I break down how burnout likes to hide—sometimes showing up as indecisiveness, mental fog, or just that “blah” feeling of losing yourself—and how you can actually batch, systemize, and delete so much of the mental overload that's weighing you down. I'll walk you through: ➤ The real signs of mental burnout—and why it's often overlooked ➤ How screen time and constant input fry our brains (and how I set boundaries with technology) ➤ The power of energy audits and making room for what truly nourishes you ➤ Why sometimes doing nothing is the most productive thing you can do ➤ How to stop wearing that Superwoman cape, ease up on the proving and performing, and actually feel freedom in your day-to-day I talk about digital detoxes, breathwork resets (including how I use the Pause Breathwork app—go check out the Midday Reset track!), and why setting outrageously firm boundaries with your time is the biggest gift you can give yourself. If you're ready to ditch the overwhelm and reclaim your clarity, creativity, and life force—this episode is for you. Whether you're a busy parent, in the midst of a big career, or just craving more space and ease, I hope these practices will support you in living a life that feels more free, connected, and completely uncontainable. If this resonated with you, it would mean the world if you subscribe, share, or leave a review—the more of us who break free from burnout, the better.

Send us a textOkay, deep breath… we've got good news and bad news. And because we're us, we're obviously starting with the bad: this is our last episode for a while. Like summer break vibes, but with more emotional damage and fewer popsicles. Life is lifing, chaos is chaosing, and honestly—we're at max capacity. Mentally, physically, hormonally. So we're hitting pause on new episodes until fall, when we'll (hopefully) return as refreshed queens with something better to say than “I don't know what's going on anymore.”In this short but sweet episode, we're talking about what's next, why we're pressing pause, and what we hope you'll do in the meantime (hint: it involves sunshine and hugging your people). It's not goodbye forever—it's just a “we'll see you in September with new stories and hopefully better lashes.”
