Podcasts about Parent

Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.Question: I have listened to hundreds of adoption-related podcast episodes, but very few of them have talked about talking directly with a potential birth mother. We were matched with an expectant mother who wanted to be able to communicate with us directly. We agreed, believing that it would help us form a better relationship. However, we were mentally unprepared for the wavering she expressed to us. Despite being so certain when we first met with her, as the pregnancy went on, she then had thoughts of parenting. The match ended with disruption, but I would love to hear a podcast about how to handle oneself in that situation. An episode of another podcast talked about how to handle that situation at the hospital during birth, but I felt something dedicated to communication throughout the pregnancy would be helpful.  Thanks for such a helpful podcast!Resources:Our #1 Secret Tip for Navigating Open AdoptionSigns that an Expectant Woman May Change Her Mind About Placing Her Child for AdoptionUnderstanding Expectant Moms Who are Considering AdoptionSupport the showPlease leave us a rating or review.

EP:155 Hey y'all, it's Dr. B! In this episode, I'm getting real about the rollercoaster of emotions and sensory overload that comes with the back-to-school transition—for both our kids and ourselves. I share my own journey as a parent, from craving structure to embracing the beautiful chaos of summer, and how I've learned to support my children (and myself) through big changes. We dive into why our brains crave routine, how to spot sensory struggles in your kids, and practical ways to create a sensory safe zone at home and advocate for one at school. I also talk about prepping for smoother mornings, building in calming rituals, and the power of repair and self-compassion when things don't go as planned. Remember, it's okay to give yourself grace—these first few weeks are all about support, not perfection. If you found this episode helpful, please share it with a fellow parent, leave a review, and let me know your favorite back-to-school tip! Let's make this school year a little smoother, together. #BackToSchool #ParentingTips #SensorySupport #RoutineMatters #ThriveLikeAParent #ParentingPodcast #EmotionalWellness #FamilyRoutines #BrookeWeinstein #SchoolTransition Links & Resources:

Welcome back to another episode of Creator Science. We have a different type of episode this week. I recently shared some stories on my social media about being a dad, and my good friend Jay Acunzo reached out and said we should do an episode talking about being parents and creators. I thought that was a great idea because, as I have spent the last year as a father, it's become so much more obvious to me that the voices in the space we pay attention to are not parents and do not quite have the same constraints and priorities that parents do. If you are a parent and you're doing this creator thing and you feel crazy because it seems like everyone has more time and can do a lot more than you are, you might find this to be an enjoyable, relatable listen. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Full transcript and show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ Jay's Website / Instagram / LinkedIn / YouTube *** TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Parent-Creator Insights with Jay Acunzo 05:57 Life Sprinting: Parenting & Entrepreneurship 08:42 Distracted Parenting Moment 13:20 Transformational Life Experiences 14:46 From Creation to Management 20:12 Parenting and Career Amid Pandemic 23:58 Parenting Pioneers Among Peers 24:37 Blank Canvas vs. Paint By Numbers 28:25 Balancing Business and Relationship Priorities 32:22 Fatherhood and Social Connections 36:09 Balancing Work, Parenting, and Storytelling 37:47 Embracing Efficiency in Parenthood 43:32 Parenthood Deepens Understanding of Parents 46:31 Balancing Parenthood and Business Identity 47:47 Embracing Simplicity in Content Creation 52:18 Combining Friend Groups Dilemma 54:35 Balancing Public Persona and Family *** RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODE → ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#251: Behind the Scenes: What I'm quietly working on *** ASK CREATOR SCIENCE → ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Submit your question here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** WHEN YOU'RE READY

Let's be real—parenthood doesn't come with a pause button for your health goals. In this episode, we dive deep into what it actually looks like to stay fit while juggling sleepless nights, toddler tantrums, school drop-offs, and everything in between. We unpack the tension between grit and grace—when to push and when to pivot—and why the old-school “no excuses” approach to fitness often fails parents entirely. You'll hear personal stories, hard-won lessons, and real strategies to help you move forward without burning out. Whether you're running on caffeine and chaos or simply trying to make time for yourself again, this one's for you. Topics We Cover: How sleep deprivation impacts recovery, cravings, and mood Training through unpredictable schedules (and why perfection is overrated) The underrated power of community and accountability How to make workouts work with your kids (not around them) Why mindset shifts matter more than motivation Because fitness doesn't have to wait until life calms down—it should meet you where you are.

What would happen if you started showing up like you — exactly as you are — were already enough?In this episode of Empowering Her, I'm getting real about something I call “fix-it culture.” It's the sneaky belief that we (or the people we love) are broken and need repairing before we can live our fullest lives. Spoiler alert: it's an illusion — and it's exhausting.This conversation was sparked by a private coaching session where I kept hearing the phrase “fix it.” It got me thinking about how deeply this mindset is baked into our self-talk, parenting, and even our work as mentors and coaches. So today, we're breaking it down and reframing it completely.Here's what we explore:The illusion of brokenness and how society trains us to believe we're incompleteWhy wholeness is our birthright — we are born with nothing missing and nothing wrongSwapping “fix it” language for “evolve” — the powerful shift from lack to growthA reflection on Coldplay's Fix You and why love isn't about repairThe truth that we can't “fix” anyone — not our kids, not our clients, not our friendsHow parents, coaches, and girls' empowerment leaders can hold space without trying to solve or repairThe impact of modeling self-love and personal evolution instead of perfectionReframe questions to try this week for yourself and the people you leadAnd… I share a little teaser about Book Baby #3, coming out next week!

In this powerful episode of The Art of Raising Humans, Kyle and Sara Wester unpack one of the hardest moments in parenting: when your teen triggers a deep emotional reaction in you. They explore why these intense reactions often stem not from the child's behavior, but from unhealed wounds, old beliefs, and unmet needs carried from our own childhood.

Is it really ADHD… or is it something else?Could your child's brain be imbalanced—not broken?What if simple, science-backed movements and home routines could spark lasting change?In this eye-opening solo episode, Dr. Bill Janeshak — Chiropractor, Functional Neurologist, and father — shares what most practitioners aren't telling you about ADHD, Autism, and sensory challenges.Based on his powerful in-office workshop, Dr. Janeshak explains:

In this episode of Connected Parenting, we flip the script on a common parenting concern; texting. While we often hear about the downsides of screens, social media, and endless scrolling, texting can actually be a powerful connection tool between you and your teen.I'll share why, in certain moments, a text might be the bridge that keeps communication open, helps your teen feel seen and understood, and even diffuses tension before it escalates. From using texts to check in during their busy day to sending a quick message that shows you're thinking of them, I'll walk you through the situations where texting shines and how to use it effectively without replacing meaningful face-to-face conversations.If you've ever worried about “too much screen time” but also want to strengthen your bond with your teen, this episode will give you a fresh perspective and practical tips to make texting work for your relationship instead of against it.Jennifer's Takeaways:Benefits of Texting Your Teen (00:00)Using Texting for Specific Tasks (02:09)Texting for Connection and Affirmation (05:07)Overcoming Texting Challenges (07:26)Meet Jennifer KolariJennifer Kolari is the host of the “Connected Parenting” weekly podcast and the co-host of “The Mental Health Comedy” podcast.

Forgiving someone can feel especially hard when they never apologize or try to make things right. Even when we want to release the pain, the hurt can linger. In this episode, we explore a different way forward that helps you move beyond old wounds and make space for fresh joy, hope, and possibility. After listening, you may be inspired to learn about Hoʻoponopono, a traditional Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. It is a method that has brought me clarity, lifted my spirit, and deepened my ability to forgive myself.

Hey Dog Lover!

“Reaching your full potential requires that you be authentically yourself.”  Breaking free from limiting systems starts with recognizing they exist. Many people live under invisible rules—whether imposed by culture, family, or belief—that dictate who they should be, what they should want, and how they should act. The real challenge is finding the courage to unlearn those inherited scripts, confront fear, and choose a path that aligns with your authentic self, even if it means losing the life you've always known.  Josh B. Morton shares how growing up in a highly controlled religious environment shaped every aspect of his life—until he decided to step away. From confronting harmful doctrines to navigating the emotional fallout of shunning, Josh reveals the mindset shifts that helped him rebuild a life on his own terms. His journey is less about attacking a religion and more about reclaiming the right to think, live, and choose for oneself.  Josh B. Morton is an author, speaker, and advocate for personal freedom. Having spent decades in the Jehovah's Witnesses before leaving, he now helps others break free from limiting beliefs and toxic systems. His book, Jehovah's Fucking Witnesses: A Book for Adults About Religious Trauma, Mental Health, and How to Move On, is both a personal memoir and a guide for anyone seeking the courage to create a life they truly want.  Learn more & connect: https://www.joshbmorton.com Book: Jehovah's F*cking Witnesses: A Book For Adults About Religious Trauma, Mental Health, and How to Move On  https://a.co/d/4LU1q6l  Raymond Aaron has shared his vision and wisdom on radio and television programs for over 40 years.

Bullying doesn’t just hurt feelings — it can rewire a child’s brain. In this powerful conversation for No Bullying Week, I speak with Professor Donna Cross, one of Australia’s leading bullying experts, about the profound short- and long-term impacts of bullying, why some children are targeted, and the surprising protective factors that can help shield kids from harm. You’ll learn what’s really going on in the minds of both bullies and their targets — and how parents can build a network of support that keeps kids safer at school and online. KEY POINTS Bullying can trigger long-term neurological and genetic changes through repeated stress responses. Effects can be similar to those seen in children experiencing abuse. High-risk factors for being bullied include loneliness, visible differences, lack of supportive bystanders, and not being well known or liked by teachers. Protective factors include multiple friendship groups, strong peer relationships, a culture of kindness, and supportive school environments. Social and physical environments — from seating arrangements to equipment availability — can influence bullying dynamics. Parents can play a key role by facilitating diverse friendship opportunities and monitoring online activity. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE "Probably the most protective factor is your child’s relationships with other young people — especially having multiple friendship groups." – Professor Donna Cross RESOURCES MENTIONED Professor Donna Cross’s research and publications happyfamilies.com.au – Resources on bullying prevention and response ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS Help your child build multiple, diverse friendship groups. Encourage empathy and kindness at home and in school conversations. Partner with your child’s school to promote a positive social environment. Teach your child how to respond calmly to provocation. Monitor and guide your child’s online interactions to reduce cyberbullying risk. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textIs your child ready for kindergarten from an emotional perspective?In this episode, Cindy discusses the emotional aspects of kindergarten readiness, emphasizing the importance of emotional intelligence and self-awareness in children. She introduces the tripartite model of parental socialization, which highlights how parents' emotional coping, parenting styles, and conflict resolution impact children's emotional development. The conversation also covers practical strategies for parents to support their children's emotional growth and prepare them for school.TakeawaysKindergarten readiness involves emotional preparation, not just academic skills.Self-awareness is crucial for coping with emotions.Parents should model emotional regulation for their children.Understanding triggers helps children manage their emotions better.Emotional intelligence is built through conversations about feelings.Expecting children to be emotionally perfect is unrealistic.Parental emotional coping styles influence children's behavior.Setting boundaries while being sensitive is key in parenting.Conflict resolution in the home teaches children about emotions.Curiosity and relationship-building are essential for school readiness.Don't miss these podcast episodes:https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/reflective-parenting-by-curious-neuron/id1440533170?i=1000720552759https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/reflective-parenting-by-curious-neuron/id1440533170?i=1000715100953More ways to build emotion regulation skills with Curious Neuron!

It's Monday, August 11th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 140 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com.  I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Adam McManus CA pastor warns if anti-parent bill passes they need to leave state Pastor Jack Hibbs, Founder of Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, sounded the alarm last week about a dangerous anti-parent bill in California. HIBBS: “[Democratic California Governor] Gavin Newsom and his buddies up there have crafted Assembly Bill 495. This bill 100% strips parents of their parental rights. It allows an individual to obtain this new form that comes with the bill. They can download it. They can get it mailed to them. They can go pick it up. They fill it out. “They can name a child, let's say Suzie Q. So, John goes to a school in California and says, ‘I have this form, and I am asking for Suzie Q to be put into my custody. I want to take her out of school.' “The bill does not require a background check for this man. Requires no identification, no driver's license, no nothing. There's no requirement in the bill for the school to call you to ask you if it's okay if John takes your daughter out of school. “It is literally being called by opponents of it --  I'm one of them -- the California Legislature Trafficking Bill. It is unbelievable. Go to realimpact.us. Read about it. “Four or five reprobates have written it. We're going to let you know who they are, and we're going to campaign against them.” Supporters of the controversial bill see it as a necessary response to President Donald Trump's crackdown on illegal immigration. In a so-called “fact sheet” about the proposal, Democratic Assemblywoman Celeste Rodriguez argued that the bill enables the kids of illegals to be cared for if their parents are detained or deported. However, conservatives and Christians believe the law could be used in nefarious ways, allowing non-related adults to a child to gain legal authority over the child with a single affidavit that does not require parental consent, reports Faithwire.com. The California Senate is about to vote on it. That's why Pastor Hibbs urged the thousands in his congregation to travel the 400 miles north to California's capitol on Tuesday, August 19th to speak out against it. HIBBS: “I need all of you to take August 19th off. I'm going to ask all of you to drive, bus, fly. I don't care how you get there, but I want you to meet me at the Capitol steps in Sacramento because our elected leaders are right now trying to get a bill passed that's the unthinkable. “We're looking for a minimum of 5,000 people to be there that day. Let your voice be heard. The last time we gathered up there, it was the largest gathering in 27 years in our state capitol.” Gina Gleason, director of the Real Impact ministry at Calvary Chapel Chino Hills, said,  “[Democrats] have a supermajority and Republicans are in the minority. So usually the Democrats get pretty much everything that they want unless we, as the church, as conservatives, stand up and speak up, and that's what we're trying to do with this bill. If we make enough noise, if we get enough attention, they will back off.” Pastor Hibbs said that the problem is too few Christians vote. HIBBS: “This is the California government, ladies and gentlemen, that somebody's voted them in. I think we did, maybe, by not voting. ‘Nah, I just sit that out. I'm going to get involved in that kind of stuff.' And … here we are. “Because whenever there's an evil, evil always fills a void, a vacancy. Jesus said that a man void of the Holy Spirit, the demons go search out and bring seven more demons worse than himself, inhabits the man because there was a vacancy. “Because good people don't vote in California, we've got idiots running this state, perverts.” Pastor Hibbs issued a dramatic warning. HIBBS: “If this bill passes, I'm going to ask you to leave the state of California. You're going to need to pack up, and you're going to have to get out. You got to get out. You got to run with your kids. You got to go. I would not subject my child to one second in this public school system with this new law, AB 495. “Your child's safety is number one in your life. I never thought the day would ever come when I would encourage you to leave. “As you can tell, I'm angry, and I'll die on this hill. This is the end of California. If this bill passes, your children are now subject and vulnerable to state-sanctioned kidnapping or trafficking.” Pray for the demise of AB 495.  If you live in California, tell your legislator you oppose AB 495 and attend the Tuesday, August 19th rally in Sacramento. Proverbs 21:15 says, “When justice is done, it is a joy to the righteous, but terror to evildoers.” Trump to meet with Putin in Alaska after issuing ‘very severe' tariff threat President Donald Trump announced that he will meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin on American soil this Friday to discuss an end to the war in Ukraine, reports One America News. On Truth Social, President Trump wrote, “The highly anticipated meeting between myself, as President of the United States of America, and President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, will take place Friday, August 15, 2025, in the Great State of Alaska. Further details to follow.” The upcoming talks between the two world leaders follow after President Trump gave Putin a 10-12 day deadline to secure a ceasefire in Ukraine, or potentially face “very severe tariffs” and sanctions. Man avoids prison after viciously assaulting two elderly pro-lifers in Baltimore And finally, Patrick Brice, who was found guilty earlier this year of savagely beating two elderly pro-life activists in a May 2023 attack outside a Baltimore Planned Parenthood abortion mill, was only sentenced to home detention and probation last Thursday, but notably will not be required to spend a day behind bars, reports LifeSiteNews.com. On August 7, Baltimore City Circuit Judge Yvette Bryant  sentenced Brice to just one year of home detention and three years of probation for brutally attacking pro-life sidewalk counselors Mark Crosby and Dick Schaefer, who were 73 and 80 respectively at the time. Schafer and Crosby were simply praying and offering alternatives to women who were coming to kill their babies, when a Planned Parenthood “deathscort” -- a staff member or volunteer who "escorts" women past pro-lifers -- attacked them. In broad daylight, Brice, who was 28, assaulted Schafer from behind, throwing him into a planter and window. When Crosby ran to his aid, Brice hit him in the face, knocking him to the ground, sending him crashing onto the brick sidewalk, and then Brice kicked him in the head.  Tragically, Crosby suffered a fractured plate bone in his right cheek and had to have his eye orbit replaced with metal. His right eye was blinded, and he suffered a concussion. Video of the attack, which we have linked in our transcript today, released by Baltimore Police clearly shows the extreme violence of Brice's attack on Crosby and Schaefer. In February, a jury convicted Brice on two counts of second-degree assault and reckless endangerment for attacking the pro-life activists, but did not reach a verdict on the more serious charge of first-degree assault. Shockingly, in a June bench trial, Judge Bryant acquitted Brice of the first-degree assault charges on the absurd grounds that Crosby had “provoked” the defendant.  The elderly pro-lifer told Daily Wire, “Baltimore is criminal-friendly. It's not victim-friendly at all, especially if you're a senior. Judges do not like pro-lifers. They don't like us saving babies, I don't know why.” Brice also yanked off Crosby's crucifix and chain which he was wearing around his neck. Crosby said that despite the pain he endured from the attack, “My shedding blood in front of Planned Parenthood for Jesus and the babies” has actually been “a gift to me.” The “millions of babies murdered” at Planned Parenthood over the years “have shed rivers of blood.” Isaiah 59:7 describes the abortionists and the Planned Parenthood “deathscorts,” like Patrick Brice, quite well.  “Their feet rush into sin; they are swift to shed innocent blood. They pursue evil schemes; acts of violence mark their ways.” The prosecution had asked Judge Bryant for a 10-year prison sentence, urging the judge to send a message that attacking two peaceful elderly men in broad daylight for their religious or political views will not be tolerated. But Judge Bryant, who shockingly did not allow Crosby to show his wounded eye to the jury during the trial, opted to give Brice a “slap on the wrist.” Send a polite, 2-3 sentence letter to Judge Yvette Bryant objecting to her decision to acquit Patrick Brice of the first-degree assault charge and her refusal to give him any prison time at all for his violent attack on two peaceful, elderly men.  Address it to:  Judge Yvette Bryant, Cummings Courthouse, Chambers 252, 111 N. Calvert Street, Baltimore, Maryland 21202.  I hope you are one of 50 Worldview listeners to send her a letter. In light of her miscarriage of justice, she needs to hear from us.
