Podcasts about Parenting

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 podcast episode, Lucas Casarez interviews Rizel Scarlett about her journey into the tech industry, her experiences with family life, and her insights on community building and leadership. Rizel shares her background, starting from her challenges as an undocumented immigrant in college, transitioning into tech through programs like Resilient Coders, and eventually securing roles in tech companies. She discusses the importance of learning in public and building a professional network through social media and community involvement. Rizel also talks about balancing her career with motherhood, emphasizing the need for clear communication with her spouse and employer to manage expectations. She highlights the value of community support in overcoming career challenges and shares her approach to leadership development by learning from mentors and managers. The conversation underscores the significance of stepping out of one's comfort zone to achieve personal and professional growth.

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

Today we are unlocking why yelling seems to work with our kids and how to find the balance between kindness and firmness that creates sustainable, effective parenting. Some key aspects we will cover today include:When children push boundaries, they're actually seeking clarity and predictability, not testing our patience.Children are wired to test boundaries to see what happens when they do.Yelling "works" only because kids finally know you mean it, not because of the volume.When we're overly gentle without clearly set boundaries, we set ourselves up to yell.  Why? Well, it's kinda like the universe maintains a balance between kindness and firmness—falling too far into permissiveness leads to explosive firmness.Today I'll teach you the CEO approach to replace yelling at your kids, with a new way to be kind and firm at the SAME time. Replacing yelling requires learning how to mean what you say and say what you meanIf you want to understand the CEO approach and get beginning tools for better communication, check out Episode 71: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/71-3-steps-that-get-kids-to-listen/id1682538739?i=1000665256022. Join me next week where we'll be talking about how to control your anger as a parent without yelling.✨Want more?1) Use this link for a FREE 20 min clarity call with Sustainable Parenting.2) Download the FREE pdf. on getting kids to listen.3) Buy a 3 session Coaching Bundle (saving you $100) - for THREE 30-min sessions 1:1 with ME, where we get right to the heart of your challenges, and give you small, powerful shifts that make a huge difference fast.

Ever feel like you're grinding non-stop but still falling short of that big dream? In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I'll drop some serious truth bombs on what it takes to live the life you want, without sacrificing your sanity, family, or soul.In this powerful conversation, I sit down with none other than Bedros Keuilian, a straight-up beast of an entrepreneur and the founder of Fit Body Bootcamp, one of the fastest-growing fitness franchises in the world. Bedros isn't just a business boss—he's a man who's done the deep inner work, battled through chaos, and come out the other side more dialed-in than ever.We jammed on a ton of important topics, from smashing the myths around the “American Dream” to redefining what true success really looks like. Bedros shares how he shifted from being a hands-on CEO to a leader of leaders, and how that move changed the game, not just in business, but in his marriage, fatherhood, and personal growth.This episode is a reminder that discipline backed by standards is the real flex. Not hustle till you burn out. Not “fake it till you make it.” But showing up every day aligned, intentional, and willing to lead yourself first. Bedros opens up about how he makes decisions through the lens of his standards, even something as simple as deciding whether or not to hang with the bros on a Friday night. And that level of clarity? It's rare—and powerful.Here are a few game-changing takeaways from the convo:The American Dream isn't dead—it's more accessible than ever. But you've gotta stop blaming the system and start owning your actions.Discipline is overrated if it's not backed by non-negotiable standards. Set your standards, filter every decision through them, and you'll move differently.Success in business means nothing if you're failing at home. Bedros keeps it real about showing up for his wife and kid, even when it's hard.Marriage takes work, and walk-away moments happen. But how you show up when things get tough defines the strength of your relationship.Faith, AI, and community all play a role in this new era of leadership. Whether it's spiritual growth or embracing tech, it's about evolving while staying grounded.If you're a purpose-driven hustler looking to harmonize your ambition with a deep, meaningful connection, this is the episode for you.In this episode, we cover:The American Dream: Misconceptions and RealitiesEntrepreneurial Journey: From Idea to SuccessTransitioning from CEO to LeaderThe Importance of Standards in Life and BusinessBalancing Family and BusinessNavigating Fatherhood and RelationshipsOvercoming Walk-Away Moments in MarriageThe Journey of Marriage and Personal GrowthFaith and Spirituality in Modern LifeThe Role of AI in Business and LifeBuilding Community and Leadership Among MenWhat does happy Hustlin mean to you? Ryan says be happy, be happy with the journey, be happy with the struggle, be happy with the destination, be happy with the frustration.

In this episode, Aaron discusses his book 'The Sovereign Child' and his unique approach to parenting, which is influenced by libertarian philosophy and the ideas of David Deutsch. Stupple emphasizes the importance of understanding children's reasons for their behavior rather than imposing authoritarian discipline. He advocates for a parenting style that maximizes freedom and autonomy while still providing guidance and support. The conversation also explores the importance of allowing children to make their own choices, particularly regarding food and screen time. He emphasizes the need for parents to create an engaging environment that fosters autonomy while also ensuring safety. The discussion further covers the balance between providing structure and allowing freedom, the misconceptions surrounding screen time, and the critical role of trust in parent-child relationships.Takeaways

In this episode of the Fitness League, hosts Josh, Alessandra, and Joelle discuss the transformative experience of cold plunging, the challenges of balancing parenting with personal wellness, and the importance of maintaining in-person community connections. They share personal anecdotes about their experiences with cold plunges, the benefits of tracking recovery through heart rate variability (HRV), and the complexities of navigating social media as entrepreneurs. The conversation emphasizes the significance of communication within family dynamics and the need to prioritize mental health during busy seasons of life. Takeaways: Cold plunging can be a transformative experience. The cold is a tool for mental and physical resilience. Maintaining in-person community connections is vital for mental health. Balancing parenting and work requires clear communication. It's important to prioritize self-care and mental health. Social media can be both a tool and a distraction. Tracking recovery metrics like HRV can provide insights into wellness. Seasons of life require different priorities and boundaries. It's okay to say no to social obligations for personal well-being. Creating a supportive network can enhance personal and professional growth.   APPLY FOR COACHING: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/1-1-coaching SDE Method app: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/sde-method-app Macros Guide https://www.lvltncoaching.com/free-resources/calculate-your-macros Join the Facebook Community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/lvltncoaching FREE TOOLS to start your health and fitness journey: https://www.lvltncoaching.com/resources/freebies Alessandra's Instagram: http://instagram.com/alessandrascutnik Joelle's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/joellesamantha?igsh=ZnVhZjFjczN0OTdn Josh's Instagram: http://instagram.com/joshscutnik   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Cold Plunge Challenge 02:46 The Experience of Cold Plunging 05:49 Adrenaline and Cold Plunge Dynamics 08:40 The Aftermath: Energy and Recovery 11:20 Data Insights: HRV and Cold Exposure 14:56 Parenting Insights and Lessons Learned 17:55 Navigating Parenting Challenges 19:09 Family Connections and Nature 23:41 The Importance of Digital Detox 29:18 Balancing Work and Family Life 35:10 Communicating Needs in Parenting 40:55 Reflections on Family Dynamics

Comedian Tracey Tee, co-creator of the hit touring show The Pump and Dump, returns with a whole new mission: helping moms heal with mushrooms. In this episode of Parenting is a Joke, she opens up to Ophira Eisenberg about how her decade-long comedy career and business collapsed overnight during the pandemic, leaving her physically and emotionally unmoored. She shares the long and grueling road she traveled through infertility, stage 4 endometriosis, surgical menopause at 41, and the grief of saying goodbye to her uterus before she ever really got to celebrate becoming a mother. It was only after a traumatic car accident with her daughter that Tracey began to recognize how much plant medicine—specifically microdosing psilocybin—had changed the way she processed stress, anxiety, and fear. The two talk about how the cultural stigma around psychedelics is shifting, especially for mothers who are desperate for support but drowning in shame and exhaustion. Tracey walks us through the wild, unexpected origin of her now-thriving community M.O.M. (Moms on Mushrooms), how a shaman helped her daughter heal faster than traditional therapy, and why she believes we're just beginning to scratch the surface of what mushrooms can do for mothers' mental health. Plus, Tracey reveals the exact moment she knew the mushrooms were working: when she found herself sincerely apologizing to a tree.

You can still give to others, but the focus should always come back to you.” — Ilise Litwin What This Episode is About: This episode of Sh!t That Goes On In Our Heads is a raw and empowering look at what it means to navigate mental health in a world that often tells us to “just keep going.” Our guest, Ilise Litwin, joins us to explore how anxiety, trauma, social media fatigue, and emotional burnout can evolve into tools for personal growth when we stop pretending to have it all together.

Being empathic is a gift, but it can become a burden without healthy boundaries. Anxiety is not a flaw. It's often a result of external pressure or biology, not a failure. Learn to adjust your coping tools. Joy is healing. Reconnecting with your inner child through play, laughter, and creativity can be a powerful form of mental self-care. Actionable Tips: Set a Social Media Detox Routine. Schedule weekly screen-free days and use automation to reduce emotional overload. Reclaim Playtime. Draw, dance, wear costumes, or revisit childhood hobbies to reconnect with joy. Visualize Boundaries. Use mental imagery (like protective bubbles) to manage emotional overload and stay grounded.
