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.

Are you carrying the mental and emotional load of parenting solo—even though you have a partner? You're not imagining it. You're not alone. And it doesn't have to stay this way. In this episode of the Happy Families podcast, Justin and Kylie dive into one of the most common (and quietly painful) challenges parents face: feeling like you're parenting alone in a relationship. With warmth, realism, and practical insight, we share four powerful—but gentle—ways to invite your partner back into the parenting picture. Whether you’re feeling unheard, unsupported, or just out of sync, these small steps can lead to big transformation. KEY POINTS: Appreciation Inventory: What we focus on grows. Before you confront, notice. Daily acknowledgements of your partner’s efforts—even small ones—can shift the dynamic. Collaborative Conversations: Use the three E’s of effective discipline (Explore, Explain, Empower) not just with kids, but with each other. Invite, don’t assign. Gradual Invitations: Don’t expect an overnight fix. Start small, with one area of natural interest, and build from there. Success breeds success. Role Modelling Matters: We become like the people we surround ourselves with. Seeing engaged parenting modeled—especially by other dads—can have a powerful ripple effect. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE:“People move towards positive energy. People really love appreciation. They tend to be repelled by criticism.” RESOURCES MENTIONED: The Three E’s of Effective Discipline Family Meetings The Heliotropic Effect Happy Families resources at happyfamilies.com.au ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS:1. Spend a week noticing and commenting on what your partner is doing.2. Replace “we need to talk” with curiosity: What are you noticing about bedtime?3. Choose one small area where your partner is already engaged—and invite them to go deeper.4. Encourage connections with friends who model engaged parenting.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy Koch and Wayne Stender delve into the challenges and joys of parenting as children grow and change, particularly during the teenage years. Hosts discuss the natural evolution of children's interests and behaviors, emphasizing that it's normal for kids to shift from wanting close parental involvement to seeking independence. The conversation highlights the emotional journey parents experience as they navigate these changes, often feeling a mix of pride and sadness. This episode of Facing the Dark encourages parents to embrace this transitional phase with a positive mindset, fostering an environment that honors both their children's growth and their role as caregivers. Tune in for practical advice on how to support your kids through their developmental changes while maintaining a strong familial bond.

Timmere and Catholic parenting coach Catherine Johnson just hit it out of the park with this episode of Trending. If you’re a Catholic mom (or know one!) feeling like you’re barely holding it together, this conversation will feel like a giant, grace-filled exhale. You can listen to the entire episode here! "Catholic mom guilt" is that feeling of never doing enough, especially when we’re comparing ourselves to other moms. But here’s the thing: a lot of us don’t even realize we’re carrying this guilt until it’s quietly wrecking our peace. It’s sneaky. Like spiritual glitter. Compare & Despair: The Catholic Edition Ever see another mom totally crushing it and then suddenly find yourself spiraling into thoughts like: "I don’t pray enough." "My kids don’t know the St. Michael Prayer by heart!" "I forgot to make Zeppole for St. Joseph’s Day... again." You’re probably not called to 6am Angelus with toddlers if you’re 39 weeks pregnant and haven’t slept. And that’s okay. Guilt vs. Conviction: How to Tell the Difference Timmere and Catherine get into a super helpful distinction: Healthy guilt = the Holy Spirit nudging you toward holiness, like "you snapped at your kids, go apologize and confess." Toxic guilt = inner condemnation, "You’re the worst Catholic mom ever, how dare you skip that novena?" If your inner voice sounds more like a bully than Jesus, it’s not from God. When Mom Guilt Turns into Mom Condemnation Another nugget: If you catch yourself being a little judgy toward the moms who are “doing all the things” ... that might actually be your own mom guilt, just wearing a mask. Time to flip the script and get curious: What is it about that other mom’s life that’s triggering something in me? Is it something I admire but am not ready for? Or something that’s just... not my calling? Authenticity Over Perfection Timmere reminds us: your domestic church doesn’t need to look like everyone else’s.Take the things that inspire you and make them your own. Some moms wake up their kids with a bell and pray the Angelus. That’s beautiful. Others pray a morning Hail Mary while surviving the cereal chaos. Also, beautiful. And that “perfect mom” you see on social media? She’s struggling too. Promise. Timmere admitted to losing her patience recently; she apologized to her kids, and later her 4-year-old apologized back. Modeling mercy is one of the most powerful ways we can teach the faith. Let them see you mess up. Let them see you get back up. Practical Takeaways for Catholic Moms Catherine shares two golden nuggets: Learn how the Lord speaks to you: When you can tell His voice from the world’s noise, parenting becomes way more peaceful. Learn to receive mercy: God is gentler with you than you are. Let that sink in. And finally: instead of chasing someone else’s Catholic parenting blueprint, ask: “Lord, how do YOU want me to raise these little saints?” You're Not Called to Be Her. You're Called to Be YOU. This episode was a giant permission slip to drop the guilt, laugh a little, and lean into the grace. You're doing better than you think.

Have you ever asked yourself: "If I could go back, what advice would I give my younger self?" "How do I teach my kids to face their fears when I still struggle with my own?" "Is true strength about bottling things up, or asking for help?" If these questions resonate, get ready for an honest, funny, and deeply touching exchange that reminds us how universal the struggles of growing up—and parenting—really are. Today, Larry Hagner and his son Ethan Hagner tackle the ultimate hypothetical: what would you say to your younger self? Their conversation unpacks not just advice for growing up, but crucial lessons for fathers navigating the complexities of guiding their children. Ethan Hagner candidly admits to being an anxious and introverted kid. Looking back, he shares how powerfully stepping out of his comfort zone—whether wrestling with social fears, struggling through disliked activities, or simply talking to a childhood crush—shaped the confident young man he's become. Larry, reflecting as a proud dad, shares the immense power of letting your kids see you embrace challenges too, and the vital importance of showing your family how to ask for help when things get tough. Become the best husband and leader you can: www.thedadedge.com/mastermind In this deeply touching conversation, we dig into: The Growth Zone: Ethan's journey from anxiety and introversion to confidence, forged by repeatedly stepping out of his comfort zone. Parental Modeling of Discomfort: Why it's crucial for dads not just to tell their kids to be brave, but to show them how they embrace their own challenges. Vulnerability as Strength: The transformative message that emotional openness isn't weakness, but a critical part of living and growing into your full potential. The Power of Asking for Help: Why leaning on your support network and giving yourself (and others) permission to be human is essential for navigating tough times. Navigating Universal Struggles: Honest reflections on the challenges of growing up and the ongoing journey of self-discovery, from both a father's and son's perspective. Whether you're a parent guiding your children, or someone still figuring it all out, this episode delivers real talk, practical takeaways, and a reminder that every chapter—no matter how daunting—is worth diving into, together. Here's what research and observation highlight about discomfort and growth: Studies show that individuals who regularly engage in activities outside their comfort zone report a 20% increase in self-efficacy and resilience. Children whose parents model vulnerability and the act of asking for help demonstrate 30% higher emotional intelligence and stronger coping skills. A strong social support network is correlated with a 45% reduction in perceived stress levels during challenging life transitions. www.thedadedge.com/alliance www.1stphorm.com/dadedge www.thedadedge.com/mastermind
