Julie Nelson and Chris Magruder welcome Josh Wood, Executive Director of Them Before Us, a nonprofit giving children a voice in cultural and legislative conversations that too often prioritize adult desires over kids' needs. What is Them Before Us? Founded in response to the 2012–2015 cultural shift around same-sex marriage, Them Before Us uses social science research to make the case that children consistently flourish best with their married, biological mother and father — and that every departure from that, whether through divorce, surrogacy, or same-sex households, carries real costs for kids that culture has been too quick to dismiss. Surrogacy vs. Adoption & the viral "Mama" video: Josh draws a sharp distinction between adoption, which tries to heal a child's loss, and surrogacy, which deliberately inflicts it. The conversation also unpacks a viral video of a baby raised by a same-sex couple instinctively crying out "Mama" — and what it reveals about children's biological and emotional needs. How you can help: Follow and share @ThemBeforeUs on social media, read the blog at thembeforus.substack.com, support their work financially, engage your legislators, and start close to home — model a strong, sacrificial marriage for the children already in your life.

Send us Fan MailEveryone prepares for the sleepless nights. Almost no one prepares for what happens to hormones after a baby arrives — for either parent. For women, the postpartum period represents one of the most dramatic hormonal shifts in human biology. For men, the arrival of a baby triggers real, measurable hormonal changes that are almost never discussed, rarely tested, and almost never treated.In this episode of Cycle Wisdom, Dr. Monica Minjeur walks through exactly what happens to both partners' hormones in the postpartum window — and why the standard six-week check is nowhere near enough. Through Sarah and Matt's story, a couple four months postpartum who were both quietly struggling and had no idea why, you will see what becomes possible when both partners are evaluated and treated together.You will learn:Why the postpartum hormone crash is one of the most dramatic in human biology — and what it does to mood, energy, thyroid function, and recoveryWhat is actually happening hormonally for new fathers — including testosterone decline, prolactin elevation, and why 10% of dads experience clinical postpartum depressionWhat treatment options exist beyond watchful waiting — including bioidentical progesterone, thyroid support, and targeted nutritional repletion for both partnersIf you or your partner have been struggling in the postpartum window and been told everything looks fine — there may be answers you have not yet been given.

In this episode, Dave discusses the movies Whistle, Black Cab, Get Away, Hallow Road, and Mom and Dad!

Episode 126. In today's episode, Meredith and Kaity talk Mom and Dad (2017). They go in-depth about this wild ride starring Nicholas Cage and Selma Blair! They also discuss who people are before they become parents, and how one loses themselves after parenthood. Intro and Outro music by the talented A Corten, and art provided by Javon Blair.

In this honest and deeply encouraging message, Eric speaks directly to moms and dads about the beauty, pressure, and difficulty of parenting. Preaching from Psalm 103:8–14, he reminds parents that while parenting is eternally important, it is also impossible to do perfectly—and that's exactly why we need the grace of God. Through stories, Scripture, and practical encouragement, this sermon points us to a compassionate Father who forgives our failures, strengthens our efforts, and loves us as His children. Whether you're raising toddlers, teenagers, or praying for grown children, this message is a reminder that God's grace is big enough for every season of parenting. Take time to listen and be encouraged by the compassion of your heavenly Father.

Despite it happening 20 years ago, today's Masked Speaker still requested anonymity after what he did when his parents left him alone for one night. And it all has to do with where his mom's car ended up...See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of Carpool Conversations, Amy and Marissa sit down with author, speaker, and podcast host Tara Sun to talk about something every parent feels but rarely escapes—overwhelm. Between packed schedules, constant noise, and the pressure to “do it all,” finding peace can feel out of reach. Drawing from her book Overbooked and Overwhelmed, Tara shares her personal story of hitting a turning point that revealed just how disconnected she had become—from God, from her purpose, and even from the present moments of motherhood. With honesty and encouragement, she reminds parents that peace isn't found in perfect systems or better time management, but in a deeper awareness of God's presence in the middle of everyday chaos. Together, they explore what it looks like to shift your mindset, slow down internally (even when life doesn't), and reconnect with what truly matters. Tara offers practical, grace-filled strategies for navigating overstimulation, cultivating self-awareness, and breaking free from the cycle of constant busyness. If you're feeling stretched thin, mentally exhausted, or just longing for a little more calm in your parenting journey, this conversation will meet you right where you are—and point you toward lasting peace.

Dave talks about his parent's cat and what it has started doing every night. 

Parents supporting adult children is common, but often hidden. Lindsey Stanberry reframes it as a “boomer lifestyle subsidy” and explores why people stay quiet, how childcare and education support can be as powerful as a cheque, and how being more open can reduce shame, comparison, and confusion. Find out more on thepurse.co and connect on Instagram.

It's never been easier to spend money, and that “one click” convenience is quietly reshaping our budgets. In this episode, Bruce explores friction maxing with certified financial planner and money psychology expert Hanna Horvath, including practical ways to slow down impulse purchases and make saving more automatic. Then, insolvency trustee Doug Hoyes breaks down what his firm is seeing in Canada's latest bankruptcy study, from higher balances and more creditors to mounting pressure from food costs, unemployment, and housing. Next, Lindsey Stanberry (The Purse) tackles the taboo topic of parents supporting adult children, and why more transparency around the “bank of mom and dad” matters. Finally, lawyer Lisa Mackie shares what renters should know before signing a lease, including key terms, red flags, and how laws at different levels of government shape your rights.

Kids experience a lot of emotions—and sometimes those feelings can change by the minute. As parents, it can be hard to know how to help our kids understand what they're feeling and express themselves in healthy ways.  In this episode we sit down with author, speaker, and family coach Dr. Josh Straub to talk about why emotional awareness matters and how parents can create space for meaningful conversations about feelings. Josh and his wife, Christi, have dedicated their work to helping families grow in emotional intelligence and healthy relationships. Together, they've written a children's book series designed to help kids name and navigate their emotions. In this conversation, they discuss why helping kids identify their feelings is such an important part of spiritual and emotional growth, how simple tools can help kids express what they're feeling, and how parents can guide their children to invite God into every emotion—from anger and worry to joy and gratitude. If you've ever wondered how to help your child talk about big emotions—or how to respond with empathy when feelings run high—this episode offers practical encouragement and simple ways to start meaningful, faith-centered conversations at home. -- Meet our guest: Josh Straub Book: What Am I Feeling - by Dr. Josh Straub & Christi Straub Book: What Do I Do With Anger?

In this episode, I sit down with two of my favorite people, my mom and dad. We reflect on faith, family, and what it looks like to love people well in every season of life. The good ones, the hard ones, and the ones where you're not quite sure what God is doing.   We talk about celebrating the wins, walking through loss, and showing compassion when someone feels stuck or unsure of where to turn.    No matter where you find yourself,  I hope this episode reminds you that God's love meets you right in the middle of your everyday life, especially in the life between Sundays.

Chores. Just hearing the word can bring up a mix of reactions—from sighs to eye rolls to “we should really work on that in our house.” In today's episode, we're diving into a topic that seems simple on the surface but can be surprisingly challenging to put into practice. We're talking about why chores matter and how everyday responsibilities help prepare our kids for life beyond our homes—while also building important life skills through responsibility and natural consequences.We're joined by Kim Smelley—mom of three, camp mom, and master of what she calls “somewhat organized chaos.” Kim shares how chores have evolved in her family, what's worked (and what hasn't), and practical ways to encourage kids when motivation is low. Whether chores are a strength in your home or a struggle, this conversation will help you see them as an opportunity for growth, teamwork, and meaningful connection with your kids.--Question of the Week: What is your favorite chore to do around the house?

Send us a Text Message and suggest a topic or guest!The glow of the microwave clock, an untouched Advent wreath, and a pile of unwrapped gifts—sound familiar? We open with a scene that many parents know too well and move toward a countercultural claim: December isn't a test of endurance, it's a training ground for unity. Through a vulnerable story about trying to do everything alone, we explore the moment a marriage turns from survival to connection and how that pivot reshapes the entire season.We look to Mary and Joseph for a framework that's both spiritual and practical. Their first Advent was anything but curated: confusion, travel, risk, and exhaustion were all there. Yet they walked together—Joseph listening and acting with steady courage, Mary trusting with humble strength. That unity didn't erase hardship; it allowed peace to enter the chaos. Drawing from their example, we invite parents to redefine success: not a perfect tree or matching pajamas, but a home where mom and dad choose each other and make space for Christ in everyday routines.You'll leave with clear, doable practices to anchor your days. Start with one small act of connection: a long morning hug, a short bedtime prayer, or a simple text that says “I'm with you.” Then try the ten-touches challenge to flip the script on phone time and elevate your marriage. These tiny habits soften stress, stabilize the household, and become the living nativity your kids remember—love steady, Christ present, and parents united. If this resonates, subscribe, share it with your spouse, and leave a review to help other families find a gentler, holier way to walk through Advent together.Support the showGive $20 to keep the mic on.

Max and Matt dive into the messy middle ground of parenting as a team, when to be a united front, and when it's okay (even good) to be different. Sparked by a spicy Instagram post, they unpack what happens when one parent loosens the rules while the other holds the line, and why those differences might actually teach kids resilience. From solo weekends with the kids, to pizza dinners and Dave & Buster's meltdowns, to the hidden pressures moms and dads face when parenting alone, they bring stories, studies, and plenty of laughs. They also break down research on authoritative vs. authoritarian parenting, how consistency shapes kids' brains, and why the most important thing might just be that your child goes to bed knowing they're loved.

Too Old To Live With Mom And Dad. Now, Grow Up And Get Your Own Place...   Millions of young adults (and let's be real, some not-so-young ones) are still living with their parents - and shockingly, 85% of those parents are totally okay with it.   In fact, they're dishing out an average of $1,474 a month to keep their kids around.   Are you serious?   Cut the umbilical cord, make your kids get a real job and find their own place to live.   Here's the real story about parental codependency and laziness.
