Parenting today often feels like navigating a storm without a map. In this powerful episode, Where Parents Talk host Lianne Castelino speaks with award-winning journalist and author Melinda Wenner Moyer about her latest book, "Hello Cruel World: Science-Based Strategies for Raising Terrific Kids in Terrifying Times."Together, they explore how parents can help their children thrive amid today's most pressing challenges—from climate anxiety and social media pressures to hormonal shifts and mental health struggles.You'll learn:Why independence and healthy risk-taking matterHow to turn everyday anxieties into opportunities for growthPractical, science-backed tools to build emotional resilienceCommunication strategies that really work with kids and teensTakeaways: Effective parenting involves fostering open communication, allowing children to express their feelings freely without fear of judgment. Teaching kids to navigate social media responsibly can help them develop critical thinking and consent awareness in relationships. Building resilience in children means encouraging them to face challenges rather than shielding them from difficulties, promoting independence and self-discipline. The importance of emotional health cannot be overstated; parents should actively listen to their kids to nurture their mental well-being. Encouraging curiosity and empathy in children can combat bullying and social isolation, equipping them to build strong, healthy relationships. Active parenting is about instilling hope and agency in children, guiding them to take action on social issues while maintaining their emotional health. This podcast is for parents, guardians, teachers and caregivers to learn proven strategies and trusted tips on raising kids, teens and young adults based on science, evidenced and lived experience.You'll learn the latest on topics like managing bullying, consent, fostering healthy relationships, and the interconnectedness of mental, emotional and physical health.Links referenced in this episode:whereparentstalk.com

What do control, perfectionism, and money have in common? For many of us, they're deeply rooted in childhood wounds, and they're the very blocks standing between us and our manifestations.In this heartfelt Q&A episode, Lacy and Jessica respond to powerful community questions that crack open the real energetics behind love, money, motherhood, and glass ceilings. Whether you're navigating burnout, trying to call in more income, or craving peace while juggling life's many demands, this conversation offers guidance, tools, and expansion to help you move forward. You'll hear personal revelations from Lacy and Jessica about their own inner child programming around control; how it shows up in work, relationships, and even wedding planning. And they offer expansive, grounded advice to two listeners: one manifesting full-time motherhood and another trying to break through a financial glass ceiling while living paycheck to paycheck.This episode is for anyone working through the TBM Money Challenge, or anyone asking: “Why do I still feel stuck?” Because often, the block isn't what you think—it's what you've normalized. So tune in for deep permission to slow down, reassess, and come back into alignment with what's truly authentic for you. The abundance you're calling in might just require a little less effort—and a little more letting go. Stay tuned for Part 2 in a few weeks!Find the Complete Show Notes Here -> https://tobemagnetic.com/expanded-podcast Resources: SALE IS LIVE$22/monthJoin the Pathway MembershipSale ends July 20th at 11:59pm PST Join our membership to access the TBM Money Challenge The Pathway Membership gives you unlimited access to all of our manifestation workshops—including How to Manifest, Unblocking Your Inner Child, Shadow, Love, Money, Rock Bottoms, Ruts, and Energetic Updates —plus 70+ self-hypnosis tracks designed to unlock your full potential.LEARN MORE HERE Get the latest from TBMNeed motivation during the Money Challenge?

Today's Bible Verse: Numbers 6:24-26 –“The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace.” ✨ Daily Meditation: This moving prayer by Amanda Idleman is a sacred reminder that every child is a gift from God, no matter the circumstances of their arrival. When Amanda and her family were called to foster a fragile newborn in the NICU, the decision was steeped in uncertainty, yet grounded in fierce faith. God answered their prayers for life and protection, showing that parenting is a holy calling and children are never a burden—they are a blessing of eternal value. Whether you're welcoming your first child, navigating the complexities of fostering or adoption, or simply praying over the next generation, this episode reminds us that God hears, responds, and walks with us in the journey of parenting.

In this episode, I'm joined by James Kimmel Jr. JD, a lecturer in psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine and author of The Science of Revenge, to explore what the latest neuroscience tells us about revenge, grievance, and retaliation. We discuss how the brain's reward system becomes activated in response to perceived harm—often fueling cycles of conflict that begin in childhood. Together, we examine how understanding these mechanisms can help us teach our children to reframe grievances, regulate emotional responses, and move toward forgiveness, both in everyday sibling conflicts and larger social dynamics.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

Ever notice how most spray cleaners and detergents seem to be marketed straight out of the 1950s... and almost always to moms? Entrepreneur Sean Busch is on a mission to flip the script. Sean is a dad of two kids who LOVE to make messes, and he's the founder of Dad Mode, a new line of high-performance cleaning products designed specifically for dads. Sean joins us to talk about why it's important that dads meaningfully contribute to housekeeping, what “choreplay” means (and how it might just be the secret to more balance), and the potential risks and rewards of selling gendered products. Several of Adam's favorite recent episodes:Navigating Miscarriage and Grief as a Dad (Kelly Jean-Philippe)What Will Our Kids Be Saying About Us?

Send us a textIn this episode of Neo News, journalist and New York Times critic-at-large Amanda Hess joins host Dr. Eli Adashi to revisit the story behind her viral essay, “My Son Has a Rare Syndrome, So I Turned to the Internet.” Amanda shares the disorienting experience of receiving her son's diagnosis of Beckwith-Wiedemann syndrome during a routine third-trimester ultrasound and the digital spiral that followed.As a new parent navigating the NICU and early medical complexities, she reflects on the paradox of modern care: how high-tech diagnostics coexist with emotional disconnection—and how often the only available companion is the search bar. The conversation explores the reality of caregiving with limited context, the emotional fallout of confronting diagnosis alone, and the unpredictable role of the internet and social media in shaping parental perception.Drawing from her upcoming book Second Life: Having a Child in the Digital Age, Amanda brings a clear-eyed perspective on the information gaps, algorithmic noise, and the human need for clarity when the stakes are impossibly high.Listen in for a raw and thoughtful look at what happens between the scan, the screen, and the real child in your arms.

On this special episode of the Little Kids, Big hearts podcast, LKBH host Todd Loyd has a conversation with the actor and legend Judge Reinhold. Judge appeared on our podcast at the start of the month — exploring feelings of nervousness and practicing some ways to cope with four big-hearted kids.Now he's back to share his OWN experiences and strategies. It turns out that even having decades of experience as a famous actor doesn't make you immune from feeling anxious, and Judge says that's actually a good thing. He explains: "If you're not nervous, then you're not going to do a good job. And that's how you break down that nervousness and turn it into fuel. It's a good thing. It's going to drive you. Adrenaline can get away from you but it can also make you so sharp and make you better than you. That's that special thing that will make you better than you thought you were, that adrenaline. You have to make it your friend." Learn more about the episode: https://playsparkler.org/feeling-nervous/Or find more resources on our YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@LittleKidsBigHearts

Motherhood demands that we see the beauty and the lessons in the micro moments that most people take for granted while mindlessly scrolling on their phones, rushing out the door, or even when they're physically present but mentally checked out. The magic of motherhood happens in the quotidian, mundane, messy interactions, not in the elaborate, grand gestures.The spiritual calling of motherhood is available to every mother; the question is, is every mother ready to answer its call? When our frenetic society obsessed with metrics, productivity, efficiency, and jam-packed schedules is telling us to do more and be more, that should be our cue to slow down and be nowhere else but present. If we aren't really present for our kids, then what is the point of all of this anyway? What magical, picture-perfect moment are we trying to fast forward to, and why does our culture laud business as if there is no higher honor to achieve? Join just the two of us as we reflect upon how each of us is deepening our response to the spiritual calling of motherhood.Resources + Books Mentioned: Rebecca Giannini - The Present Parents Coaching (code MOTR saves you 15%)Scattered Minds by Dr. Gabor Mate, MDThe Conscious Parent by Dr. Shefali Tsabary, MDThe Seven Spiritual Laws for Parents by Deepak ChopraSupport the showJOIN OUR NEW, PRIVATE COMMUNITY!

Sarah Dionne joined Tim and Mary Lee to discuss: How should parents relate to their adult children who are leaving the home (children generally between the ages of 17 and 22)?There are many books teaching parents how to care for toddlers and teenagers, but fewer about what to do with adult children who are leaving or have already left the home.How do parents handle it when their children are leaving home? It's heartbreaking, yet by the time they are 18, parents should be ready and encouraged to see them leave.How long should daughters stay in their father's home?With time, the authority of father and mother shifts from command to wise counsel. But the obligation to be a mother and father does not end when children are over 18. They still need counsel; they should not be cut off—launched and forgotten.How do you keep your children's hearts soft toward you as they grow into adulthood?Links:1.

Are all kids tech-obsessed these days? Maybe—but some young minds are uniquely wired to build, create, and tinker. Today's episode shares how to connect Tech Obsessed Kids to God's Word. Expert guest Allen Brokken joins host Tina Yeager to show us how to reach and disciple kids who might otherwise feel left out in traditional church settings. Here are some highlights and practical takeaways from the conversation: Understanding the Tech-Obsessed Child Allen shares from his personal journey as a lifelong “technology kid,” explaining how classic Sunday school—full of singing, listening, and sitting—often feels alienating for kinesthetic learners who need to use their hands and engage deeply with how things work. Biblical Crafts & Hands-On Faith Did you know the Bible is full of design blueprints and craftspeople? From the Ark to the Temple, scripture is teeming with detailed constructions and creative talents. Allen suggests inviting kids to sketch, build, or even 3D print biblical objects, helping them see themselves in God's story. Not Just More Screen Time While we often link technology with screens, Allen encourages us to broaden our definition of tech engagement. Let kids craft, sew, tackle puzzles, or model biblical artifacts—offering them tactile, service-oriented projects that echo examples like Dorcas in the New Testament. Resources for Parents & Leaders Free projects & workbooks: Allen's website, towersoflight.net, offers free resources and a blog series with hands-on activities to align with scripture. Tech tip: For screen-loving kids, try Bible-based builds in Minecraft or digital Lego tools like BrickLink Studio. Homeschool curriculum: Check out multimedia language arts units combined with hands-on projects and audiobook learning for kids. Intentional Inclusion Catch subtle cues—like glazed eyes or restless fingers—that signal a disengaged child. Simple strategies, such as leading questions during scripture reading or collaborative design projects, can transform frustration into inspiration. Get Connected Find more project ideas, curriculum details, and Allen's award-winning children's fiction at towersoflight.net/subscribe. You'll also receive their free newsletter with regular, creative ideas for engaging tech-minded kids. Let's inspire every child to find their place in God's story—not just as learners, but as creators, problem-solvers, and world-changers.   We're thrilled to accompany you on this journey of faith, growth, and transformation.

Another week, another Parenting Out Loud episode where if parents are thinking about it, we're talking about it. On today's show, Jessie Stephens and Amelia Lester are joined by friend of the pod, and Mamamia's Deputy Editor, Stacey Hicks, to discuss whether or not kids ruin your adult friendships. Also, to what extent should children's entertainment figures be apolitical, and why is YouTube's Ms Rachel so controversial right now? Plus, the dumb phone. Between landlines, 'brick' phones and a yearning for the '90s, it seems nostalgia is the newest tech trend for parents.

I once heard it said that raising teens is like holding a wet bar of soap: too firm a grasp and it shoots from your hand: too loose a grasp, and it slides away. A gentle but firm grasp keeps it in your hand. One of the greatest gifts we can give to our kids is the gift of reasonable and loving boundaries. Boundaries help our kids to recognize right from wrong, to stay safe within the confines of God's will and way, and to teach them the self-control that will serve them well as they take on responsibility for themselves for the rest of their lives. When your kids look back on their growing-up years, they will thank you that you took the time to teach them that there truly is right and wrong in a world that works so hard to teach them otherwise. But you must also remember that one of the greatest teaching tools is experience. As they grow older, hold them more loosely, allowing them to make mistakes and to learn by suffering the consequences of those mistakes. Remember, you are preparing them for life.

Open Forum: Pastor Amos and others, covered a range of spiritual and practical topics. On parenting, Pastor Amos and Ark shared strategies on balancing freedom and boundaries, highlighting adaptability and individual needs. The theme of unconditional love emerged strongly, with Micah, Pastor Amos, Stephanie, and Antoinette emphasizing loving without reciprocity, relational wisdom, and forgiveness. Conversations on Christian theology delved into Israel's role, cautioning against equating criticism with anti-Semitism and underscoring God's impartial judgment. The Israel-Palestine conflict was examined from a biblical lens, stressing alignment with God's will over taking sides. Concerns about media, especially Disney and secular music, focused on occult content, inconsistent standards, and the influence on worship and behavior, prompting a call for discernment and spiritual awareness. Modesty in clothing, particularly for young girls, was also discussed, reflecting generational shifts and biblical values.    Partner with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com/partner Connect with Us: https://churchforentrepreneurs.com                  

Ever feel like you're spinning all the plates - and dropping more than you're catching? Parenting, business, relationships, self - how can we manage it all? In this week's episode of Chill & Prosper, I'm sharing how I juggle (and sometimes fumble) the big four: self, relationships, parenting, and work. Because, spoiler alert, it's far from perfect.

Saying “I can't” sounds controlled. Saying “I won't” sounds unstoppable. In this episode, I explore the life-changing difference between the two, teaching teens how to own their values with power and confidence, whether it's about religious standards, digital discipline, or resisting peer pressure. This episode gives teens the tools to stop sounding limited and start standing tall.

In this snack-sized episode of Parenting is a Joke, Ophira Eisenberg is joined again by Tracey Tee—comedian turned founder of Moms on Mushrooms (M.O.M.)—to talk about how microdosing psilocybin became the unexpected tool that helped her feel more present, emotionally resilient, and aligned as a parent. Tracey explains how her past work creating The Pump and Dump Show laid the groundwork for building a mushroom-centered community for moms looking for healing, connection, and alternatives to antidepressants. They discuss the myths around microdosing, the stigma of moms on psychedelics, and why Tracey compares it to a cup of coffee rather than a drug-induced haze. She breaks down how most moms in her community aren't looking to get high—they're looking to feel something again after years of numbing out on SSRIs, exhaustion, and societal expectations. Tracey also explains why mushrooms, unlike wine or wellness trends, actually ask moms to show up for their own healing with intention. The episode ends with Tracey reflecting on the exact moment she knew the mushrooms were working: when she stopped parenting for appearances and started listening to what her daughter actually needed.

Episode 2637: Adina Soclof offers insight into the temperament trait of sensitivity, helping parents understand and support children who experience the world more intensely. By teaching kids to name and manage overwhelming sensations and emotions, parents can replace frustration with empathy, laying the foundation for emotional intelligence and self-awareness. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://parentingsimply.com/the-sensitive-child-helping-him-reach-his-potential/ Quotes to ponder: "Sensitive kids need to possess in their vocabularies the words that help them communicate their profound emotions and sensations they experience." “You reminded Shane of the prizes she could get if she finishes her work to help cheer her up, that is called being kind.” “Someone called me a complainer. I was really hurt, but I said to myself, ‘that is not true, I usually don't complain, I am going to try not to let what she said bother me.'” Learn more about your ad choices.

Your parents weren't always boring. Believe it or not, they had lives, interests, and a lot more freedom before you came along. Here's the truth: your parents' lives changed dramatically the moment you entered the picture. It's not that you're a problem; I'm not saying that at all, but raising a child comes with enormous responsibility. Paying bills, doing laundry, and keeping up with your needs leave little time for the fun or spontaneity they had prior to having children. Their sacrifices are often invisible, but they are made out of love for you and the belief that their life is worth more than their former freedoms. Parenting is a picture of the gospel: giving up your freedom for the good of others.

In this episode, I answer a question from a mom navigating intense bedtime struggles with her highly anxious daughter. When emotions escalate and her child feels panicked or overwhelmed, she questions whether enforcing boundaries might seem insensitive. I break down what's really going on—how anxiety drives a need for control—and why bedtime often becomes the battleground. Using child-centered strategies, I walk through how to respond in ways that honor both the child's emotions and the parent's need for structure, sleep, and sanity. I explain how to set compassionate boundaries, return responsibility, and use empowering choices to build your child's resilience and coping skills—without fueling the cycle of dependence.

One of the most radical things you can do is live your life in direct opposition to the forces that control our society. Not just fighting for policies or organizing your community, although those are certainly important parts of it, but also living with values that oppose the values of our dominant society. And even more importantly, raising the next generation to embody those values—not in a coercive way, but through organic parenting and role modeling that make radicalism irresistible. This is how we raise revolutionaries: instilling community, love, egalitarianism, and a need for justice into children. And this is just what our guest in today's episode has devoted himself to doing. Breht O'Shea is an activist, organizer, political educator, and host of the podcast Revolutionary Left Radio and co-host of the podcasts Red Menace and Shoeless in South Dakota. He is a father of three based out of Omaha Nebraska. In this conversation, Part 3 of our Post Capitalist Parenting series, Breht shares with us insights about parenting that he's learned over the years as a father of three and what Marxism teaches us about parenting. We discuss the classic text by Engels, The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State, which is a dialectical materialist analysis of patriarchy and the family, tracing the emergence of the patriarchal family and it took through various iterations of class society but also exploring what families have looked like under actually-existing socialism and also what it might look like under communism. We also explore the anti-natalist position which attempts to argue that having children is immoral, why this perspective is deeply flawed, what Buddhism can teach us about parenting, and much, much more.

Have you ever asked yourself: "If I could talk to my younger self, what vital lessons would I share about fatherhood?" "Is my 'tough guy' exterior actually holding me back from truly connecting with my kids?" "What does it really mean to lead my family with emotional authenticity?" If these questions resonate, get ready for an unfiltered, insight-packed conversation that hits at the very heart of modern fatherhood: modeling emotional openness, prioritizing genuine connection, and reimagining what leadership truly looks like at home. Today, Larry Hagner sits across the table from his son Ethan Hagner. Their deeply touching exchange is a powerful reminder of how universal the struggles of growing up and parenting really are, driven by Larry's determination to provide a steady, affectionate home—a stark contrast to his own chaotic upbringing. Become the best husband and leader you can: www.thedadedge.com/mastermind In this unfiltered, insight-packed conversation, we dig into: Asking for Help as a Strength: Why vulnerability and reaching out for support are ultimate acts of courage, challenging the traditional "tough guy" parenting narrative. Empathy Over Solutions: Ethan shares his journey learning to be a better listener, especially in his relationship with his girlfriend, recognizing that people often want understanding and empathy more than immediate fixes. The Power of Authentic Connection: Larry and Ethan emphasize that genuine presence and open communication are direct drivers of influence in the home, making attempts to motivate or discipline kids far more effective. The "Marriage-First" Household: A candid discussion on the profound difference a strong, loving parental relationship makes in children's development and present-day family life, even if it means "grossing the kids out with love." Don't Hold It In: The crucial message to express pain, stress, and affection openly, allowing your family to see the full, real you for true psychological safety and peace. This episode offers profound wisdom and practical takeaways for any dad looking to build a legacy of emotional health and connection. Here's what research and observation highlight about emotional openness in families: Children raised in homes with high parental emotional openness report a 35% increase in emotional intelligence and resilience. Parental modeling of asking for help is correlated with a 40% higher likelihood of children seeking support when needed, reducing feelings of isolation. Families in which parents prioritize and visibly demonstrate a strong marriage report children with 25% higher levels of emotional security and social adjustment. www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.1stphorm.com/dadedge www.thedadedge.com/mastermind
