    In today's episode, I sit down with Dr. Jamil Zaki, a psychology professor at Stanford University and director of the Stanford Social Neuroscience Lab. We discuss the critical role of empathy and kindness in today's world, the importance of narrative in driving empathy, and the distinction between hope and optimism. We also explore how empathy can be a double-edged sword, leading to burnout if not managed properly. We then dive into temperament differences, the role of self-compassion, and even family practices like “positive gossip” that make kindness contagious.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

    The Dad Edge Podcast (formerly The Good Dad Project Podcast)

    In this solo episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, I dive into the valuable life lessons we as fathers can teach our kids through sports—lessons that go far beyond winning or losing. Whether it's about praising effort over outcomes, sharing personal stories of hard work, or simply playing together with no agenda, I explore how to build stronger bonds and greater resilience in our kids through these moments. This episode is a call to reframe how we show up on the sidelines and in life. Sports can be more than competition—they can be a platform for presence, growth, and connection. If you want to raise grounded, hardworking kids who aren't afraid of putting in the reps, this episode is for you. TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Kicking off the episode with intention and a mission for fatherhood [1:02] - The busy fall season: sports, school, and parenting chaos [2:22] - Why we must praise effort—not just outcomes—with our kids [3:46] - Childhood memories and the impact of working hard without reward [5:02] - Growth mindset: effort over results builds long-term confidence [6:29] - Combating entitlement by teaching consistent hard work [7:27] - Celebrating preparation, not just game-day performance [8:07] - Sharing real stories of hard work from our own lives with our kids [9:18] - Why credibility with your kids is built through relatable stories [9:38] - The power of play: connecting with our kids through shared activity [10:21] - Taekwondo with my son and football with another—just having fun [11:12] - Why the end result matters less than the connection [11:49] - A practical call to action: ask your kids what they learned from sports this week [12:26] - Don't let your kids off the hook—push for real answers [13:04] - Reflecting on the last quarter of the year and what's ahead [13:39] - A warning for business owners: don't build an empire and lose your family [14:19] - Links to join The Alliance or Business Boardroom [14:42] - Final recap and reminder to praise effort, share stories, and play together 5 KEY TAKEAWAYS 1. Praise Effort, Not Just Results When we focus on our kids' preparation, persistence, and grit rather than wins or trophies, we help them develop a growth mindset that builds confidence and resilience. 2. Real-Life Stories Create Connection Sharing your own stories of hard work, sacrifice, and struggle makes your guidance more credible and relatable—and shows your kids you've been in their shoes. 3. Play Without a Purpose Connection often happens in the unstructured moments. Whether it's football or taekwondo, playing with your kids for the sake of fun builds trust and memories. 4. Ask Better Questions Instead of asking “How was practice?”, ask “What did you learn this week from sports?” Push them to reflect and communicate their growth and insights. 5. Lead Without Losing What Matters Whether you're a career man or building a business, don't trade connection with your wife or kids for productivity. Build both—intentionally.

    When was the last time you and your partner tried something new in the bedroom? What if the problem isn't a lack of love, but a lack of imagination? In this episode, I'm joined by Shan Boodram, Chief Intimacy Officer at Arya, to explore how couples can reignite that new-love energy, no matter how many years it's been. As both a mom of two and a certified intimacy educator, Shan knows the challenges couples face - the chaos of parenting, the exhaustion, and the way relationships often get pushed to the bottom of the list. That's where Arya comes in. Think of Arya as a personal concierge for your love life - taking away the shame and guesswork so you can focus on connection, playfulness, and intimacy. Shan is one of the internet's most trusted and sought-after intimacy experts, and we cover a lot - from breaking down the stigma around sexual wellness to exploring why novelty is scientifically proven to boost connection, this conversation was as insightful as it was refreshing.

    Are you wondering how to transform life's deepest traumas into a journey of healing, love, and purpose? In this powerful episode of Whinypaluza, Rebecca Greene sits down with Dr. Kaci M., CEO of Speaking Freedom, Certified Life, Love & Sex Coach, Army veteran, and host of Speaking Freedom TV/Radio. Dr. Kaci opens up about her journey from surviving childhood trauma and military service to building a life dedicated to helping others heal. She shares how she reframed PTSD and pain into lessons of resilience, how her concept of Spiritual Human Behavior blends psychology with faith and purpose, and why intimacy is a vital communication tool in marriage. Rebecca and Dr. Kaci also dive into the rollercoaster of parenting teenagers, the importance of finding compassion in relationships, and the courage it takes to step out of comfort zones and live aligned with your true purpose. This is an episode full of wisdom, vulnerability, and practical steps to help you see life through the eyes of love. Key Takeaways:→ Childhood trauma can be re-framed as life lessons that shape resilience and compassion.→ Military service gave structure, discipline, and values that still guide Dr. Kaci today.→ Spiritual Human Behavior blends psychology, purpose, and faith to help us understand who we really are.→ Marriage thrives when intimacy is embraced as a tool for communication and connection.→ Parenting teenagers requires patience, perspective, and remembering your own adolescence. Guest Quotes:“Trauma can be turned into a learning lesson—when you reimagine it, it no longer holds the same power.” “Your relationship with God should be free, without religious undertones telling you you're wrong.” Connect with Dr. Kaci M.:

    On this Parenting is a Joke snack episode, ​head-writer of Jimmy Kimmel Live! Danny Ricker joins Ophira Eisenberg to talk about how his work and family worlds overlap in unpredictable ways. He shares how writing jokes for Kimmel during the pandemic meant working from his garage while his kids crashed Zoom meetings, and why pitching jokes with a toddler tugging on his sleeve changed the whole dynamic of the room. Danny recalls how his children's blunt feedback sometimes lands harder than a network note, and how bedtime stories often turn into test runs for monologue material. He describes the strange pride of seeing his kids repeat late-night style jokes at school, including one about Guillermo that got surprisingly big laughs on the playground. The conversation comes full circle when Danny admits the most nerve-wracking audience he's ever faced isn't Jimmy, the network, or a celebrity guest—but his own kids at the dinner table.

    Parenting doesn't come with a manual, but if it did, the ADHD chapter would probably be 400 pages long and full of contradictions. So let's simplify: here's how to cut through the noise and figure out your next step if you think your child (or you!) has ADHD. If you've ever thought “I think my child might have ADHD, but what do I actually do now?”, I recorded this episode exactly for you. I'll walk you through the real-life steps parents can take to move forward without getting lost in confusion (or spending thousands of dollars you may not need to). You'll get a clear picture of the options available, from quick evaluations to full psychological assessments, and learn how to figure out what makes the most sense for your child. In this episode on what to do if you think your child has ADHD, we'll discuss: Why talking to a trusted professional is the first step when you suspect ADHD; The difference between surveys, psychiatric evaluations, and full ADHD assessments; How ADHD can sometimes be confused with anxiety, learning differences, or substance use; The pros, cons, and costs of a psychological evaluation (and when it's worth it); A more accessible option for getting a reliable diagnosis without breaking the bank; How to build the right support team once you have answers.   Next steps

    Parenting a teenager can feel like tiptoeing through a construction zone — and ADHD cranks the jackhammer. In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay breaks down what's really happening in the teenage brain and why ADHD can intensify mood swings, impulsivity, and motivation slumps. This isn't “bad behavior” or “bad parenting” — it's a developing brain that needs different scaffolding, smarter systems, and calmer connection. Dana is joined by therapist Ashley Gobeil, who has over 15 years of experience supporting neurodiverse families. Together they unpack practical tools for emotional regulation, communication that doesn't escalate conflict, realistic academic supports, screen-time sanity, and how to get teens on board with nutrition changes by linking food to feelings and function.

    In this episode of the Dad Edge Podcast, my son Ethan and I open up about the kind of conversations that strengthen the bond between fathers and sons. We explore what it really means to show up with respect, emotional maturity, presence, and perspective—both as a parent and as a young man growing into adulthood.   From handling difficult emotions and making space for deeper connection to the importance of ownership and emotional regulation, this episode is filled with raw insights and real-life tools for leading your kids—especially your sons—toward a more grounded and respectful life. Whether you're a dad trying to better understand your son or a young man looking to grow into his role, this one hits home.     TIMELINE SUMMARY [0:00] - Welcome and today's topic: respect, ownership, and emotional maturity [1:14] - Why dads and sons need hard conversations for deeper connection [2:33] - Teaching kids emotional control without shutting down their feelings [3:58] - Ethan's take on what “being present” looks like from a son's perspective [6:27] - Why kids don't always need advice—they need you to listen [8:22] - The impact of dads staying calm when kids are upset [11:15] - A story about “being too close to the situation” and losing perspective [13:47] - Ethan's advice to young men about taking responsibility and thinking bigger [15:01] - When life feels overwhelming: how to pause and regain emotional footing [17:26] - Teaching sons that vulnerability and strength are not opposites [19:44] - Lessons from past episodes and how guests influence Ethan's perspective [21:10] - Navigating performance pressure as a young man in today's world [23:42] - What Ethan is learning about balancing ambition and contentment [26:03] - Managing stress and comparison in the digital age [29:18] - The father-son dynamic around goals, growth, and personal responsibility [31:51] - Ethan shares what helps him feel most connected to his dad [34:22] - Why consistency beats intensity in relationships and leadership [36:09] - The importance of checking in emotionally, not just logistically [38:45] - Final reflections on fatherhood, growth, and relational leadership [41:36] - Closing encouragement and reminder to lead with presence and love     5 KEY TAKEAWAYS   1. Respect Starts With Presence Kids don't feel respected when they're interrupted or corrected mid-emotion. Simply being present—listening without jumping in—builds trust that lasts. 2. Emotional Regulation Is Learned, Not Inherited Children learn emotional control from what we model. Calm fathers create calm environments where kids feel safe to feel. 3. You Can't Solve What You Don't See Clearly Reacting emotionally without pausing for perspective often escalates the situation. Teaching our kids to “zoom out” is a lifelong skill. 4. Sons Need Ownership, Not Rescue Letting our sons take responsibility—even when they mess up—builds confidence and teaches them to lead themselves. 5.
