Have you ever said your child, “Don't yell at your brother!” If so, were you yelling? What's happening in a child's body filled with angry is louder than what's going on in their brain. As Christi says in this episode, “Our body sends 10 messages to our brain for every 1 our brain sends to our body.” In other words, our body speaks louder than our brain. So why have we stopped listening to the body? What's actually going in our child's body in their anger? What's happening on our body in our anger? And why, for our children, is loving touch the most powerful way for the body to know “felt safety?”As we close out season 6 on Relational Intelligence in Kids, Christi answers these questions and shares why the body protects our children anytime there is a threat to their connection, belonging, safety, and dignity. She also explains how we as parents can help our kids restore felt safety and why these principles will be an integral part of KidsRQ.Time Stamps:0:00 KidsRQ and body-based tools3:00 Why the body matters for healing5:20 The tripartite God and what it means for us created in His image9:12 How the nervous system and emotions protect children17:47 Relating to our kids on earth as in heaven21:52 Moving emotion through your body25:27 Ways to learn this through Famous at Home Show Notes: Sign up for a free trial of KidsRQ! https://www.kidsrq.com Join KidsRQ at the Founding Members rate: https://www.kidsrq.com Interested in Tender & Fierce?

Womanhood Wellness is where functional medicine meets feminine wisdom—guiding you to balance hormones, awaken libido, and prepare for pregnancy with intention. Join todayWhat if chasing health and beauty ends up making us sick, anxious, and disconnected?This episode is all about choosing joy instead of fear and questioning the pressure to do everything “right,” from Botox to seed oils. That lens applies to everything, hair dye, kids' snacks, and even the bread at an Italian restaurant. We need to ask what actually serves our bodies and our stress levels.The internet is a great resource, but it has created immense confusion around wellness because for every idea you can easily find an opposition with just as much conviction. We explore that same middle ground in fertility, where IVF might make sense for some while natural approaches fit others. Of course, we always bring it home to motherhood and discuss screens, childcare, and the everyday mess of trying to balance it all without losing ourselves in the extremes.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[06:09] Where the line blurs between natural beauty choices and Botox[09:08] The hidden costs of breast implants and why “safe” options aren't risk-free[10:18] How losing facial expression with Botox may impact kids and human connection[22:33] Why obsessing over toxins or food rules can harm more than help[26:11] The mindset shift that transforms health choices from fear to joy[32:56] Navigating the nuanced spectrum between fertility treatments and natural approaches[38:57] How to balance being present with your kids while still holding boundaries[41:25] The real struggles of working motherhood and why guilt shows up on both sides[51:06] Why extremes create suffering and why most wisdom lives in the middleResources Mentioned:Healthy as a Mother podcast episode on How to Handle Sibling Fights with Ralphie Jacobs | Apple or Spotify or YouTubeFind more from Dr. Leah:Dr. Leah Gordon | InstagramDr. Leah Gordon | WebsiteWomanhood Wellness | WebsiteFind more from Dr. Morgan:Dr. Morgan MacDermott | InstagramDr. Morgan MacDermott | WebsiteUse code HEALTHYMOTHER and save 15% at RedmondFor 20% off your first order at Needed, use code HEALTHYMOTHERSave $260 at Lumebox, use code HEALTHYASAMOTHER

Now, faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. For by it, the people of old received their commendation. By faith, we understand that the universe was created by the word of God so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible. Pray for mothers, children, and the soldiers in Israel to experience God's protection, peace, and daily courage in these uncertain times. Pray for counselors, pro-life ministries, and outreach programs serving vulnerable women and families, including Bedouin and refugee communities, to bear fruit and reveal every child as a blessing from God. And Pray for congregations to turn from fear and constant news toward scripture, prayer, fellowship, and practical love that strengthens the body of Christ.

A fast-paced episode that stitches together three urgent stories shaking the nation: local officials in Los Angeles declaring a state of emergency amid sweeping ICE enforcement; a devastating, fiery multi-vehicle crash on I-85 that killed eight people (including children); and the fallout from a major hostage release and large prisoner swap in the Israel-Gaza conflict. The hosts parse what “emergency” means when law enforcement, public safety, and political priorities collide — and why ordinary people feel the consequences first. ([Reuters][1] [1]: https://www.reuters.com/world/us/la-county-board-approves-emergency-declaration-over-immigration-raids-2025-10-15/?utm_source=chatgpt.com "LA County Board approves emergency declaration over immigration raids" [2]: https://apnews.com/article/ec79bf54aabdf8eed9330a2d39c40875?utm_source=chatgpt.com "Driver following too close behind van charged in crash that killed 3 adults, 5 kids, officials say" [3]: https://www.timesofisrael.com/all-20-remaining-living-hostages-return-to-israel-after-over-2-years-in-hamas-captivity/?utm_source=chatgpt.com "All 20 remaining living hostages return to Israel, after over 2 years in Hamas captivity"

In this gripping episode, the host shares a deeply personal story about teaching two teenagers how to drive — and why awareness on the road can mean the difference between life and death. A tragic crash on I-85 in Georgia that claimed eight lives, including five children and a pregnant woman, becomes a sobering reminder of how distracted and reckless driving — especially among semi-truck operators — is spiraling out of control. From highway safety habits to the decline in trucking standards, this episode blends personal reflection, listener insights, and a hard look at America's driving culture.

Parenting Through Meltdowns: Turning Chaos into Connection Every parent has been there—the dreaded meltdown. Whether it's your toddler on the kitchen floor, your teenager slamming a door, or even you holding back tears in the car, meltdowns are part of family life. But what if these moments aren't just problems to solve, but opportunities to connect? In this episode of the Crazy Cool Family Podcast, Don and Suzanne share wisdom from raising seven kids and over 30 years of parenting experience to help you reframe how you see meltdowns. We'll dive into why meltdowns happen, how they make us feel as parents, and—most importantly—how to respond in ways that build character, strengthen relationships, and reduce chaos in your home over time. You'll learn practical strategies for handling toddler tantrums, school-day meltdowns, and teenage blow-ups without adding fuel to the fire. From turning a “no” into a redirect, to knowing when to pause and offer grace, this conversation will help you see meltdowns as moments to disciple, not just discipline. We'll also explore the spiritual side of meltdowns—how God uses adversity to grow us, and how we can model compassion, patience, and love even when emotions run high. Parenting isn't about perfection—it's about connection. So, if you've ever felt embarrassed, overwhelmed, or unsure in the face of a meltdown, this episode is for you.

Plus, WestJet plans to charge for reclining seats. Later, Parenting with Justin Worsham tackles whether we're creating struggles just to feel challenged, and why California might be forgetting its seniors.

Emily Oster is an economist, bestselling author, and creator of Parent Data, where she uses research to cut through fear-driven myths about pregnancy and parenting. In this episode she discusses how data and boundaries help us make better choices when there's no way to guarantee an outcome, why treating everyone—including toddlers, teenagers, and even adults—like they need both love and limits leads to resilience and how parenting can reveal universal lessons about responsibility, connection, and growth.

Proverbs 1:6-10

Ep545. Renee chats with toddler expert and Transforming Toddlerhood author Devon Kuntzman about surviving the chaotic toddler years without losing your mind. Devon explains why tantrums, hitting, and “defiance” aren't bad behavior—they're communication—and shares simple mindset shifts and scripts that stop power struggles before they spiral. They talk parent guilt, public meltdowns, and why discipline is truly about teaching skills, not punishing mistakes.

Today, I want to take you behind the scenes in The Lab this week. Every month I do a retro where I look at the months that just passed, things that went well, things that didn't go well, things that I'm changing because of that. I wanted to share a version of that here on the channel and on the podcast feed, and hopefully by learning more about what's going on in my head, not only do you feel a little bit seen and understood, but maybe it gives you some insight and unlocks something for you in your own business as well. So in this episode, I'll be looking at the last quarter of the year. I want to look at my business, how it's performing so far, and where we're heading. ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Full transcript and show notes⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** TIMESTAMPS 00:00 Quarterly Business Review Insights 06:26 Parenting, Priorities, and Adaptation 08:09 Lab and Book Priorities 11:51 Refocusing on Creator Priorities 15:41 Ambition on My Terms 19:40 Writing, Thinking, and Mimetic Desire 21:40 Content Repurposing Across Platforms 25:56 Content & Product Strategy Update 30:29 Lab Membership Updates & Features 31:54 Making the Book a Success 35:44 Balancing the Perfect Title 38:11 Struggling to Do Less *** RECOMMENDED NEXT EPISODE → ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠#270: Being a creator and a parent | Jay-Talking with Jay Acunzo *** ASK CREATOR SCIENCE → ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Submit your question here⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ *** WHEN YOU'RE READY

Maybe you don't like it. Maybe you think it's a bad idea. Maybe you're scared for them. But you know what? It doesn't matter.

In this powerful episode, we challenge the modern myth that “good parenting” means self-sacrifice at all costs. Instead, we explore what it really takes to show up strong for your family — starting with how you lead yourself. From the societal pressure to “do it all” to the quiet burnout no one talks about, we unpack how ignoring your own needs doesn't make you a better parent — it makes it harder to be the present, grounded leader your kids actually need. We redefine self-care as self-leadership and break down the mindset shifts, personal responsibility, and daily actions that help you parent from a place of strength — not survival. If you've ever felt guilty for wanting more time, more space, or more growth… this conversation will give you permission to take it — and a plan to model a healthier path for your family. Because your kids don't need a perfect parent. They need one who's fully alive.

Julie Cobalt is an attorney with over 25 years of experience as a Conflict Resolution Expert with 1,200 successful mediations accomplished. After many years of working with large companies, Julie is now supporting families in resolving their conflicts, and offering workshops on navigating challenging times such as divorce. Julie shared a story of her mom who was always seeking validation through helping people outside of her family. This led to a fascinating conversation about the balance of taking care of others with taking care of yourself, but also questioning whom you seek validation from and why; how to shift perspective to see where the other person is coming from; and the importance of understanding before you react. Julie shared her inner journey of working on her relationship with her mother, and also the biggest lesson she learned as a Conflict Resolution Expert - she kindly shared her theory of “3 Buckets” which can help soften any relationship.

This week's conversation is such a refreshing encouragement for every stage of motherhood. I'm joined by author, speaker, and seasoned mom Vicki Courtney, and she brings so much wisdom and honesty about the changing roles we face as moms.From the early years of raising little ones to navigating an empty nest, Vicki reminds us that while motherhood is deeply meaningful, it's not our highest calling. Our identity must be rooted in Christ, not in what we do, how we parent, or what season we're in.Here's what we unpack in today's episode:• Why your value isn't defined by your parenting performance• The gift of self-care and how it fuels your ability to show up well• The importance of investing in your marriage (yes, even in the chaos!)• How to approach each season of motherhood with grace, not guiltWhether you're in the thick of diaper changes or college drop-offs, this conversation is full of truth and hope for your soul.Vicki is a national speaker and bestselling author whose books have ministered to women and teens for over two decades. She's known for her relatable, truth-filled encouragement, and her latest book Motherhood Is Not Your Highest Callinghelps moms reframe their identity through a biblical lens. She and her husband live in Austin, Texas, and have three grown children and grandchildren.As always, I'd love for you to leave a quick rating or review if this episode encourages you, it means so much and helps other parents find these life-giving conversations.Connect with Courtneyvickicourtney.comInstagramMotherhood is not your highest calling by Vicki CourtneyResources MentionedChristian Parenting Christmas Gift GuideChristian Parenting products10 Questions series(06:13) Redefining Identity: Beyond Motherhood(12:00) Wake-Up Calls: Lessons from Parenting and Life(17:51) Prioritizing Marriage in Parenting(24:03) Overcoming Guilt: Embracing Grace(29:59) Conclusion and ResourcesPrefer video?

We tend to think that remember only means to recall facts, a place, an occurrence, or a time period. It is that and much more.  Remember also means to take into account the emotional impact of what we recall. It is the need to integrate all the experiences of living. “Re-member” can mean to keep your thinking, feeling, and behaving congruent with your environment and the people who live in it.  For a parent, the definition of remember that also includes “re-member” is a need for the parent to recall and integrate what it was like to be a child, regardless of what age. The parent who does not “re-member” will forget the difficulties, and even the joys of growing up. They will not parent the way a child needs to be parented, or the way the parent actually wishes to do.  Many parents run from “re-membering” because it requires that we feel and integrate “the good, the bad, and the ugly” of our own lives.  To remember requires that we face, feel, and deal with the pain of failure and the sweet memories of success. If we don't have the courage or willingness to remember, our children have to miss richer connections that they were made to have. Parents who are not willing to grow, have difficulty tolerating their own feelings, and their own inherent neediness; the effect is that they will have lower tolerance for the feelings and needs of the child.   Three helpful attitudes to develop to help parents “re-member” Acknowledging distance Doing the work of daily remembrance Facing the impossible   What is distance? Distance is to remember that the parent lives in another “time-zone,” called the future in relation to a child.    A child struggles in a place that the parent has gone beyond. Either the parent can recall the heart ache or the heart delight, and can relate to the child, or the parent's need to ignore or suppress their experience will block emotional and spiritual connection to the child.    Click here to continue reading the episode highlights.

Parenting isn't tidy. It's muddy, unpredictable, and sometimes really uncomfortable. In this episode, I'm talking about what it means to come alongside your child, especially when their choices, emotions, or beliefs stretch you in ways you didn't expect.We'll explore how to stay close when everything in you wants to pull away, how to listen with curiosity instead of control, and how to build a relationship that can hold steady through the chaos, confusion, and change that come with raising growing humans.Because real connection isn't built in the easy moments. It's built in the mess.

What would you do if the scale flashed “error” because it couldn't register your weight? For most men, that might feel like the end—but for Johnny Muresan, it was day one. In this deeply moving and brutally honest episode, I sit down with the man behind Johnny Goes Running to unpack his staggering 160+ pound weight loss journey, his emotional rock bottom, and how a single painful step forward sparked a complete life transformation.   Johnny shares the realities of chronic pain, food addiction, and near-marital collapse—but more importantly, he walks us through how he reclaimed his health, family, and purpose. From running marathons to rebuilding his marriage and launching a community of hope for other men, this conversation will challenge you to rethink what's possible—no matter where you're starting from.     Episode Timeline Highlights [0:00] – Introduction [1:01] – What would you do if the scale read “error”? Johnny's weight reality check. [3:17] – The painful first step and the mindset shift from victimhood to action. [6:49] – Life at nearly 500 lbs: chronic knee pain, parenting while immobile, and losing hope. [14:06] – The wake-up call: realizing his choices were writing his kids' future. [24:09] – How a 30-day water fast broke Johnny's food addiction. [27:42] – Losing 61 pounds in 30 days—and the humble first meal after. [33:08] – How changing food habits restored his health and mindset. [39:02] – His first full marathon—returning to Hawaii where he once hit rock bottom. [45:00] – Rewiring his entire family dynamic by leading with example. [50:11] – Running 82 miles across Tennessee for a cause—on just 11 days' notice. [51:32] – His upcoming book Run Your Life and what it means to take up space where you don't feel you belong.     5 Key Takeaways   1. Rock Bottom is a Starting Line – Johnny didn't wait until he was “ready” or “fit”—he started while in pain, overweight, and discouraged. 2. Living for Your Kids Means Showing Up – Johnny's breakthrough came when he realized he'd die for his kids—but wasn't willing to live for them. 3. Small Wins Compound – From diet soda swaps to walking just a few minutes, Johnny's journey was built on gradual, sustainable steps. 4. Leading by Example Changes Everything – His transformation didn't just affect him—it rewired his entire family's emotional, physical, and relational health. 5. You Belong in Every Room You Enter – Whether it's the start line of a marathon or a new chapter in life, you don't need permission to take up space.       Links & Resources   Follow Johnny on Instagram: @johnnygoesrunning Get your copy of The Pursuit of Legendary Fatherhood + two free courses: https://thedadedge.com/legendarybook Join the Dad Edge Alliance (Elite Brotherhood): https://thedadedge.com/alliance Explore the Dad Edge Business Boardroom: https://thedadedge.com/businessboardroom Free 21-Day Email Series: 3 Marriage Skills at a Time: https://thedadedge.com/extraordinary-marriage/ 1st Phorm - 1stphorm.com/dadedge       Inspired by Johnny's journey?
