I stopped behind a car at a red light the other day and noticed a bright sticker on the rear window boldly stating: “New Driver. Please Be Patient.” Given all the road rage we hear about (or experience), what a great reminder to be patient with other drivers. As I looked at the sticker, I wondered what would happen if people carried around signs that alerted us that they’re a “New Parent” or “New Christian.” If we knew what our neighbors or coworkers or others we encounter throughout our day were going through, would we be more patient and even help them deal with their struggles? We may be rushing through our days trying to avoid being interrupted by others, but let’s consider how Jesus treated people. He wasn’t in a hurry. He had compassion on people and took the time to comfort and teach and show love to those He encountered. As believers in Jesus, we’re called to “live a life worthy of the calling [we] have received” (Ephesians 4:1). The apostle Paul says that includes being “completely humble and gentle; [being] patient, bearing with one another in love” (v. 2) and making every effort to live in peace and unity with each other (v. 3). We may not know what challenges people are facing, but we can be patient with them. Let’s be an expression of Jesus’ love to everyone we encounter on our daily path.

Part 1 How to Be an Adult in Relationships by David Richo Summary"How to Be an Adult in Relationships" by David Richo focuses on how emotional maturity and self-awareness play crucial roles in building healthy and fulfilling relationships. Here's a summary of the key concepts from the book:Self-Awareness and Emotional Maturity Richo emphasizes the importance of understanding oneself to navigate relationships successfully. This includes recognizing one's own needs, feelings, fears, and patterns of behavior that affect interactions with others. By becoming more self-aware, individuals can respond to situations rather than react impulsively.Taking Responsibility Adults in relationships take responsibility for their thoughts and actions. This means owning one's feelings, rather than projecting them onto partners. Richo advises that each person should work toward being accountable and understanding how personal choices influence relationship dynamics.Setting Boundaries A crucial aspect of being an adult in relationships is knowing how and when to set healthy boundaries. Richo provides guidance on identifying one's limits, communicating them clearly, and respecting others' boundaries as well.Effective Communication Open, honest communication is foundational to successful relationships. Richo encourages readers to express their needs and feelings without blame or criticism. Learning to listen actively and empathetically is also crucial.Accepting Imperfection Richo discusses the importance of accepting both ourselves and our partners as imperfect beings. He advocates for compassion towards oneself and others, and understanding that mistakes and shortcomings are a natural part of being human.The Role of Vulnerability Being vulnerable is highlighted as a strength in relationships. Sharing one's fears and insecurities can deepen intimacy and trust. Richo suggests that vulnerability fosters connection when approached with openness and honesty.Balancing Independence and Togetherness Richo emphasizes the need for individuals to maintain their independence while also nurturing a close, intertwined relationship. This balance is essential to healthy partnerships where both individuals can grow personally and as a couple.Therapeutic Exercises The book includes practical exercises and reflections to help readers apply the principles discussed. These activities encourage readers to assess their own experiences, practice deeper self-reflection, and build healthier relational habits. Conclusion David Richo's "How to Be an Adult in Relationships" serves as a guide to achieving emotional maturity and developing strong, healthy connections with others. It encourages readers to cultivate understanding, communication, and compassion within themselves and their relationships.Part 2 How to Be an Adult in Relationships AuthorDavid Richo is an American psychotherapist, author, and teacher known for his work in psychology, spirituality, and relationships.

It's safe to say that many first-time parents can admit that there's a big gap between the perception of parenting versus what it's like to become a parent yourself. While this time is filled with many high highs and low lows, it's filled with confusion, uncertainty and isolation. After all, for much of the first year, your baby can't speak to you and your reliant on their unique cues. We speak with parenting expert Vered Benhorin about how to form a deeper, more present relationship with your child and enjoy the mundane activities and play you do as a parent.

In this episode of The Progressive Rehab & Strength Podcast, new parents and Clinical Coaches, Drs Rori Alter and John Petrizzo, dive into the challenges of maintaining a strength training program, specifically powerlifting and barbell training, after having a baby for the first and second time. From sleep deprivation to time constraints, they explore how your approach to training must shift in the postpartum period. If you're a parent, or soon-to-be parent, they talk about the differences in training expectations before and after having kids, and how to avoid the common pitfalls that lead to injury and burnout after. This episode discusses the importance of flexibility and consistency over perfection, how to modify your lifting program to suit your current life stage, and the critical need to listen to your body and adjust your approach. It also covers how to stay realistic and avoid frustration by embracing the idea that this is a temporary phase, and there will be opportunities to get back to a more robust powerlifting routine that works for you. Key Takeaways From This Episode: Managing Expectations in Postpartum Powerlifting for Both Parents: Training as a new parent may look very different from training before kids. Explore the shift in mindset and realistic goals when it comes to strength training during the postpartum period. Sleep Deprivation and Its Impact on Strength Training & Recovery: Sleep disturbances are commonplace after having a child, whether it's the first, second or third time. Whether it's early postpartum or you're in the midst of a sleep regression, your ability to recover is impacted and training must adapt while you're in this ever changing life phase.  Finding Time to Train: How parents can carve out time for strength training despite the busy, unpredictable schedule of parenting. This episode  tackles the myth of "I don't have time to train" and shares practical tips for fitting in workouts, even when life gets chaotic. Consistency Over Perfection: Why aiming for consistency instead of perfection can be a game changer in the postpartum period. It's all about progress, not perfection. The Importance of Modifying Your Program: Not adjusting your training can lead to injuries and hinder your progress. This episode gives real-life examples of clients who struggled with injuries because their standard programs weren't suited to their current life stage and recovery capacity. Recovery and Injuries: Why you may need to slow down and focus more on recovery, especially after childbirth, when typical strength training programs may not provide enough rest. Temporary Phase: Recognizing that this challenging stage is temporary, from the fourth trimester to toddlerhood, and that balance and recovery will improve as time goes on. Episode Highlights: The #1 reason people stop exercising is lack of time – and this becomes even more of a challenge after having kids. Case studies of clients balancing demanding careers and new families, who had to modify their training to avoid injuries and achieve better recovery. Real talk about the physical and mental adjustment needed after introducing a new family member, and how training programs need to reflect these changes.

“New Parent Decision Coin.” It's a great gag gift for new parents. On one side it reads - “daddy's turn” and on the other it reads “mommy's turn.” When the baby starts getting fussy, you flip the coin, and whoever's side it lands on gets to take care of the new baby. 13 year old Maddie sends the link to the coin with the text - “We need this - can you get this for us?” She sends the text message to her mom's 37 year old boyfriend, Stephan Sterns. It does not appear that Maddie's mother is pregnant… so who is the coin for? 2 months later - Maddie is found dead. Her “stepfather” is arrested and graphic pictures and videos of Maddie are found on his phone. Did he kill her? Why did he kill her? Was she pregnant? And how did her mother not know anything about this? Those are all the questions netizens have in the case of Madeline Soto.    Full show notes at rottenmangopodcast.com

Dina and Tim know that the footage is going to be bad. They had already seen glimpses… but they weren't prepared. The baby camera footage shows a 56 year old woman standing at the edge of the bed. She's emotionless yet she's holding a newborn baby in her arms... She takes a moment before calmly - using all her force - to chuck the baby across the room onto the bed. Ever so calmly she walks over and stuffs blankets into the baby's mouth and slams her down. This is the case of the worst nanny in San Francisco. And strangely, how a TikTok executive and Snapchat executive get involved in this viral case.
