    In Some States, Parents Risk Losing Custody for Rejecting Child's Transgender Identity | Erin Friday

    Erin Friday is an attorney and the co-lead of Our Duty, a parent-led international organization that opposes transgender procedures for minors.When her daughter was 13 years old, she began identifying as male, and school staff began using a male name and pronouns to address her—without the knowledge or consent of her parents.When Friday found out, she called the school and told them to stop. A week later, Child Protective Services showed up at her door—followed by the police a day later. No action was taken against Friday, but it was an alarming experience for her.A few months later, her daughter ran away in the middle of the night. Under normal circumstances, a parent would probably call the police, but Friday didn't dare to, having heard about parents who had lost custody of their children when they refused to go along with their child's transgender identity.“It's two o‘clock in the morning, three o'clock in the morning, and I can't make that phone call because I know that there's already a file open on me, and that Child Protective Services can swoop in at any time and take my child,” Friday said.“I made a deal that if I could safeguard my daughter from this—which I did—that I would help save other parents and save other children.”For years now, she has joined the legal fight against school policies that allow social transitioning of minors without parental consent and medical guidelines that support puberty blockers and hormones for minors.“When have we ever treated a mental illness by cutting off body parts?” Friday says.In our wide-ranging interview, we discuss the legal battles Friday has been involved in against Child Protective Services and the state of California over the past few years.Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.

    People Pleasing Is Dangerous for Autistic & ADHD Kids: What Parents and Therapists Need to Know People pleasing is often labeled as being kind, flexible, or mature. But for autistic and ADHD children and teens, people pleasing is often something else entirely. It's a self-protective survival strategy—one rooted in fear of rejection, emotional pain, and the belief that their needs are "too much." In this episode of The Autism ADHD Podcast, I talk about why people pleasing is especially risky for neurodivergent kids and teens, how it develops, and the early warning signs adults often miss. I also share a very real moment from my own life—standing in a grocery store with no water at home, right before a major ice storm—and how that moment revealed just how powerful (and dangerous) people pleasing can be, even after a year of hard work. This episode is for parents, therapists, and educators who want to support autistic and ADHD children and teens in building safety, boundaries, and self-trust—without pushing them into burnout. In this episode, I cover: What people pleasing really looks like in autistic and ADHD children and teens Why people-pleasing is closely connected to masking and emotional safety Early warning signs, including over-apologizing and difficulty saying no How people pleasing is often unintentionally reinforced by adults and peers Why people pleasing increases burnout, anxiety, and vulnerability in relationships How supporting capacity and boundaries can reduce meltdowns and shutdowns If you've ever worried that teaching boundaries might make a child "too rigid" or "selfish," this episode offers a compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming reframe.

    This is the moment the Ellen Greenberg case shifted. After 15 years of fighting the city of Philadelphia, after settlements, documentaries, and a medical examiner who reversed his own ruling, Josh and Sandee Greenberg are now asking Sam Goldberg directly: help us understand what happened to our daughter.It's not a demand. It's not an accusation. It's an invitation — and that makes it even more powerful."We would like to invite Sam and his family members to come forward and explain to us things that have not been answered," Sandee Greenberg told NewsNation. "I would think he would want to know exactly what happened to his beloved fiancée."Sam Goldberg has never been charged with any crime. But he's also never sat for an interview, never answered questions publicly, and his family collectively refused to participate in the Death in Apartment 603 documentary. When reporters approached him last week after news of the federal investigation broke, he remained "tight-lipped and refused to answer questions."Meanwhile, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania has issued subpoenas to Philadelphia Police, the DA's Office, and the Medical Examiner's Office. They're investigating whether corruption influenced how this case was handled — potentially reaching all the way to Governor Josh Shapiro.The Greenbergs are offering Sam Goldberg a chance to be part of the solution. The federal government is offering subpoenas. One is an invitation. The other isn't optional.#EllenGreenberg #SamGoldberg #FederalProbe #TrueCrimeNews #JusticeForEllen #PhiladelphiaCorruption #JamesSchwartzman #DeathInApartment603 #ColdCasJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    Fifteen years of silence. That's what the Greenberg family has received from Sam Goldberg and his relatives since Ellen was found dead with 20 stab wounds in their shared apartment. Now, with federal prosecutors issuing subpoenas and a corruption investigation underway, Ellen's parents are making one final request: help us understand.Sandee Greenberg's invitation was pointed but gracious: "We would like to invite Sam and his family members to come forward and explain to us things that have not been answered. I would think he would want to know exactly what happened to his beloved fiancée."That last line lands like a verdict wrapped in velvet.Sam Goldberg has never been named a suspect and has never been charged. But he's also never explained why his uncle removed Ellen's electronics before police secured them, why the crime scene was cleaned within 24 hours, or why his entire family refused to speak for the Hulu documentary. His one public statement in 15 years accused others of trying to "desecrate his reputation" — but offered nothing to help the Greenbergs find peace.Now the U.S. Attorney's Office is investigating whether Philadelphia authorities botched or corrupted this case from the start. The wait-it-out strategy is over. The questions are coming whether anyone volunteers answers or not.This is the full breakdown of why the Greenbergs' invitation is both the most generous offer Sam Goldberg will ever receive — and possibly his last chance to control his own narrative.#EllenGreenberg #SamGoldberg #FederalInvestigation #JamesSchwartzman #PhiladelphiaSuicide #TrueCrimePodcast #JusticeForEllen #DeathInApartment603 #ColdCaseUpdate #GreenbergFamilyJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

    “For they {Earthly Parents} disciplined us for a short time . . . but he {God} disciplines us for our good, that we may share his {God's} holiness" (Hebrews 12:10) MESSAGE SUMMARY: The Lord disciplines his children; therefore, so should we. Our discipline can take many forms, for example: 1) teach children a lesson, even hard lessons; and 2) it is OK to take away children's privileges. The Lord's discipline is out of love; and our discipline, for our children, should, also, be out of our love. Nobody likes discipline -- we do not like it; our kids do not like it. However, discipline works to bring righteousness and peace, and discipline brings fruit to us and our children down the road. In Hebrews 12:7-10, the author of Hebrews succinctly describes the Biblical perspective regarding discipline: It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as {His} sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons. Besides this, we have had earthly fathers who disciplined us, and we respected them. Shall we not much more be subject to the Father of spirits and live? For they {Earthly Parents} disciplined us for a short time as it seemed best to them, but he {God} disciplines us for our good, that we may share his {God's} holiness.".   TODAY'S PRAYER: Lord, help me to be still and to wait patiently for you in silence.

    In this powerful interview episode of Youth Worker On Fire, Doug Edwards sits down with Tamar, an Israeli wife, mother, and tour guide, to hear what life has been like for families since October 7, 2023. Tamar shares her personal story of waking up to sirens on a Jewish holiday, watching her husband be called into military reserve duty, navigating motherhood, fear, and faith during a season of national trauma and uncertainty. Recorded in Jerusalem during the Ambassadors Summit, this conversation offers a rare and deeply human look at: • What October 7th was like for everyday families • How Orthodox Jewish communities responded in the first hours and days • What it feels like to watch your spouse leave for war not knowing when they'll return • How community support, prayer, and practical care sustained families • How Israelis from different faith backgrounds live and work together • What military and national service looks like for young adults in Israel • How war has changed daily life, travel, and long-term plans • Why seeing foreigners come to Israel to show support has brought real hope Tamar also explains the role of community, faith, and movement in surviving emotionally difficult seasons—and why, even after everything, Israelis are determined to keep living, building families, and believing in the future. This episode is especially valuable for: • Youth pastors and youth ministry volunteers • Christian educators and student leaders • Parents helping students process fear, uncertainty, and world events • Anyone wanting a real, human perspective on life in Israel today This is not a political episode. It is a family story, a faith story, and a testimony of resilience, community, and hope in the middle of hardship. ✨ Sometimes the most important lessons we teach students don't come from a sermon—but from listening to someone's story. _________________________________________________________________________________

    We survived Snowpocalypse 2026, and honestly? We're not sure what learned more — our kids, our cars, or the ice-covered lakes behind Rizz's house.On this daily comedy podcast, The Rizzuto Show breaks down everything that happens when St. Louis shuts down for snow but nobody actually stays home. Roads are “fine,” side streets are chaos, drivers are going 18 mph out of fear of salt, and everyone suddenly claims they got 16 inches (spoiler: they didn't).Rizz brags about having the highway to himself, Lern avoids highways entirely for “peace,” and Moon learns that remote learning is basically a fake snow day loophole that somehow benefits the schools more than the kids. Meanwhile, Rizz's son drills into a frozen lake to test ice thickness like it's 1954, shovels driveways, and casually makes $100 — while his daughter sleeps until noon like a champion.This daily comedy podcast also tackles the important questions:Are parents still yelling at their kids to shovel? (Yes.)Is warming up your car actually necessary? (Mostly no.)Why does every snowstorm turn neighbors into snowblower-sharing maniacs?And who keeps exaggerating snowfall totals like it's a competition?Then things take a turn when the crew reacts to an internet meltdown involving someone who hid 100 tiny plastic ducks around their apartment to “test” their house cleaner. Is it genius? Is it psychotic? Is it the most passive-aggressive thing ever invented? The debate gets heated, suggestions get weird, and somehow topless duck-based cleaning businesses get pitched.There's also flamethrower regret, leaf blower snow removal hacks, scammy neighborhood kids who disappear with your money, EV battery anxiety, tire pressure panic, and a whole lot of parenting realizations that boil down to one truth: chore charts don't work — yelling does.If you love snow chaos, weird news, relatable parenting fails, and sarcastic St. Louis energy, this daily comedy podcast episode is for you.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow Hear The Rizz Show daily on 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MOSt. Louis residents dig out after winter stormShould you actually warm up your car in the extreme cold?

    AT Parenting Survival Podcast: Parenting | Child Anxiety | Child OCD | Kids & Family

    When parents start looking for help for a child with OCD, the process can feel confusing, overwhelming, and high-stakes. Between therapy options, medication questions, and different levels of care, it's hard to know what actually matters — and what doesn't.In this episode, I break down what parents really need to know when seeking treatment for OCD.We talk about why the therapist's training matters more than their degree, and what specific approaches are most effective for OCD. I explain the importance of evidence-based modalities like CBT with ERP, ACT, and why family involvement is essential, especially for kids and teens.I also walk through the different levels of care, from outpatient therapy to intensive and residential programs, and how to know when a higher level of support may be appropriate.For parents considering more intensive treatment, I share key questions to ask programs so you can better understand whether the environment is truly appropriate for a child with anxiety or OCD, including how much individual therapy is provided, the mix of diagnoses in the program, and the overall level of safety and stability.Finally, I touch on several well-known OCD treatment programs parents often hear about, and how to think through these options thoughtfully.This episode is designed to help parents feel more informed, more grounded, and more confident as they navigate treatment decisions, because finding the right support can make a meaningful difference in your child's recovery.If you are new to this OCD journey, take my free OCD webinar, 5 Things Every Parent Needs to Know When Helping Their Child with OCD.***This podcast episode is sponsored by NOCD.

    Rob and Michele Reiner did everything right. They showed up to every therapy session. They paid for eighteen rehab stays. They hired private instructors and family therapists. They let their troubled son live in their guesthouse even after he destroyed it—multiple times. And on December 14, 2025, they were found stabbed to death in their Brentwood home. Their son Nick, 32, was arrested that night and now faces two counts of first-degree murder.Today on True Crime Today, we break down the troubling history of Nick Reiner—the entitled Hollywood son whose struggles with addiction and mental illness were met with endless resources and zero consequences. A 2009 rehab roommate tells the Daily Mail that Nick was "a fucking pompous little punk" who constantly ranted about hating his parents—the same parents who attended every family session while other wealthy families sent nannies.We examine Nick's own admissions on the Dopey podcast: destroying property with "no logic," stealing OxyContin from sick elderly people, and getting high during the press tour for Being Charlie—a film about his recovery that his father directed. We look at the 2020 mental health conservatorship, the reported medication change weeks before the killings, and the disturbing scene at Conan O'Brien's Christmas party where guests say Nick was "freaking everyone out" just hours before his parents' deaths.This is the story the headlines won't tell you.

    California Wolves Push Ranchers to the Brink as Heather Hadwick Demands Action

    The January 27 edition of the AgNet News Hour took a deep and urgent look at one of California agriculture's most emotionally charged and fast-growing crises: wolves. Hosts Nick Papagni and Josh McGill were joined by Assemblymember Heather Hadwick, who represents California's massive and rural District 1, stretching across much of the state's northern tier. Her message was blunt—California's current wolf policies are failing ranchers, rural families, and public safety. Hadwick explained that while wolves have been present in Northern California for several years, the situation has escalated dramatically. Declining deer, elk, and antelope populations have left wolves without adequate natural food sources, pushing them closer to ranches, schools, and neighborhoods. In some areas, wolf packs have killed more than 100 head of cattle in a single season, devastating family ranching operations that were already struggling with rising costs. What frustrates ranchers most, Hadwick said, is that California law leaves them virtually powerless. Wolves are so heavily protected that ranchers cannot haze them, deter them, or defend their livestock without risking legal consequences. “They're being asked to watch their livelihoods be destroyed,” she said, “and they aren't even allowed to protect their own property.” The problem goes beyond livestock losses. Hadwick described growing fear in rural communities, where wolves have been spotted near schools, playgrounds, and homes. Parents are hesitant to let their children play outside, and ranchers are spending sleepless nights patrolling calving grounds. “There's an emotional and mental toll here that no compensation check can fix,” she said. Hadwick contrasted California's approach with neighboring states and even Canada, where wolf populations are managed with clearer rules that balance wildlife conservation and human safety. In California, she said, predator management is fragmented, with wolves, bears, and mountain lions all handled separately—despite exploding populations and shrinking habitat. Bears alone are now estimated at more than 65,000 statewide, with some of the highest concentrations in her district. To address the crisis, Hadwick is introducing legislation aimed at improving transparency, response time, and public safety authority. One proposal would allow local sheriffs to act when wolves pose an immediate threat, while another would require real-time tracking data so ranchers know when wolves are nearby—rather than learning hours later after livestock has been killed. Papagni and McGill agreed the issue isn't about eliminating wolves, but about restoring balance. Other states have proven coexistence is possible when policy reflects reality on the ground. Hadwick warned that without change, California risks pushing ranchers into desperate situations—and losing more of its rural communities in the process. “This is about common sense,” she said. “And it's about protecting the people who produce our food.”

    Rob Reiner wasn't naive. He was a successful director with resources, connections, and access to the best treatment money could buy. By the end, he was publicly saying they should have listened to Nick instead of the professionals. They brought a son exhibiting erratic behavior to a party where other guests considered calling 911. They went to sleep in a house with someone who, according to sources, was in psychiatric crisis. Something fundamentally shifted in how they perceived threat.Former FBI Special Agent Robin Dreeke—who served as Chief of the Bureau's Counterintelligence Behavioral Analysis Program—analyzes twenty years of family dynamics. How does a family go from calling police in 2019 to sleeping in the same house on December 13th, 2025? Dreeke explains how trust gets exploited through reciprocity, vulnerability, and manufactured guilt. Nick co-wrote "Being Charlie" with his father—a movie about their relationship. That's extraordinary narrative control over the family story.Psychotherapist Shavaun Scott delivers our most comprehensive analysis—a three-part breakdown covering Nick's individual psychology, the family dynamics that trapped the Reiners for 30 years, and systemic failures that allowed tragedy despite unlimited resources. She examines Nick's schizoaffective disorder, the medication change that reportedly destabilized him one month before the murders, and the psychology of someone who admits killing his parents but believes his incarceration is a conspiracy.Part two breaks down how the family "grew used to" behavior that alarmed strangers and what three decades cycling through 18-plus facilities does to parents. Part three exposes why the mental health system failed. Dr. Drew said 30-day programs were "almost meaningless" for Nick. Alexis Haines said he belonged in a hospital. The care he needed may not even exist.

    Everyone needs a good night of uninterrupted rest, especially your baby. If your child has trouble falling asleep or staying asleep, try playing white noise when you put them to bed. White noise has helped millions of babies fall asleep worldwide, as it helps block out background sounds that can keep your baby awake at night. It creates a soothing environment, perfect for resting little eyes. This infant sleep sound lasts for 8 hours so your baby can sleep for as long as they need. Just don't forget, as a parent you need rest too!While playing white noise for babies, it's important to keep tabs on the volume, because any white noise machine, smartphone, or computer can put out levels that are too loud for your child. It's recommended to play the sound at least a few feet from where your infant is sleeping and to keep the volume no louder than the sound of a soft shower.  Parents can download an app to turn their smartphone into a sound level meter. One good, free, option is the sound level meter app created by the U.S. National Institutes for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) available on the app store as the NIOSH SLM app.This episode was originally published in 2022.

    Do you have a teen whose emotions feel huge and explosive—and nothing you say seems to calm things down?Do you find yourself reacting out of fear, walking on eggshells, or second-guessing whether you're doing any of this “right”? In this episode, Colleen O'Grady talks with therapist and author Katie K. May about what's really happening when teens have big, intense emotions—and why common parent responses (like “You're fine” or “Relax”) often backfire. Katie introduces the concept of “fire feelers,” teens who experience emotions as all-consuming, and explains how self-destructive behaviors can become a desperate attempt to shut down emotional pain. You'll learn why validation is the fastest way to lower emotional intensity, how “radical acceptance” helps parents stop fighting reality and start rebuilding connection, and why parents need a plan to regulate their own nervous system so they can respond instead of react—especially when safety is a concern. Guest Bio: Katie K. May Katie K. May is a licensed therapist, author, speaker, and group practice owner. She founded Creative Healing, a multi-location teen support center in the Philadelphia area, and is the author of You're On Fire, It's Fine: Effective Strategies for Parenting Teens with Self-Destructive Behaviors. With lived experience as a teen who turned to self-harm, Katie is one of a select few board-certified DBT clinicians in Pennsylvania. She equips parents and clinicians with practical, trauma-informed tools to decode behavior as survival and create lasting change. Three Takeaways Validation lowers the emotional “fire.” Before problem-solving, teens need to feel seen and understood—validation helps calm the nervous system and opens the door to change. Radical acceptance reduces parental suffering. Accepting “this is where we are” doesn't mean approving—it means stopping the fight with reality so you can respond more effectively. Parents need their own regulation plan. A “stress meter” and a proactive calming strategy help moms manage fear, avoid catastrophic thinking, and stay steady when emotions run high.

When relationships are complicated. When we've felt hurt, abandoned, or misunderstood. But over time, blame keeps our attention focused outward, tying our sense of peace to other people's choices and behavior.In this episode, I share honestly from my own life, my marriage, my recovery journey, and what I've witnessed walking alongside hundreds of people on their healing path. For me, blame often showed up as “trying to help,” “pointing things out,” or wishing someone else would change and how spiritual practice helped me see what was really happening underneath.We explore how releasing blame doesn't mean minimizing your pain or pretending things didn't matter. It means becoming willing to be honest with yourself, to turn inward, and to stop giving your power away.When we choose responsibility ovRecover Your SOUL CIRCLE Group coaching with Rev Rachel is now open for enrollment.Join a sacred space to deepen your healing, connect in community, and walk the Recover Your Soul Process together:  1.

    Colette Jane Fehr a marriage counselor, EMDR therapist, and author of "The Cost of Quiet." With over two decades of experience helping individuals and couples navigate relationship challenges, Colette specializes in teaching people how to communicate vulnerably and assertively in their most important relationships.  Episode Overview  In this powerful conversation, Dr. Debi Silber sits down with therapist and author Colette Fehr to explore why speaking up in relationships is essential for healing, growth, and genuine connection—especially after betrayal. Colette shares her personal journey from childhood trauma to relationship betrayal, and how these experiences shaped her understanding of healthy communication and the devastating cost of staying quiet.  Key Topics Discussed  The Origins of Conflict Avoidance  How childhood experiences with parental conflict shape our relationship patterns  The difference between destructive conflict (screaming, fighting) and constructive conflict (honest, vulnerable communication)  Why some people mistake silence and "keeping the peace" for relationship health  The concept of parentification and how it impacts adult relationships  Understanding "The Cost of Quiet"  Quiet as a euphemism for conflict avoidance  Different forms of conflict avoidance that people don't recognize:  Self-silencing and sweeping things under the rug  Criticism disguised as "expressing feelings"  Bickering about surface issues instead of deeper needs  Why avoiding vulnerability doesn't actually protect you from pain  The Four Bad Communication Report Card Responses (The Four D's and an F)  Dismissiveness - "It's no big deal, why are you so upset?"  Defensiveness - Getting reactive instead of receptive  Distancing - Shutting down, stonewalling, pulling away  Fixing - Problem-solving instead of listening and connecting  Vulnerability as Strength  Why vulnerability is actually the strongest choice you can make  How to build the courage to be vulnerable after betrayal  Connecting with your inner child before difficult conversations  The only way through fear is action—building the vulnerability muscle  Self-Connected Communication  The importance of I-statements over you-statements  Connecting to deeper emotional needs beyond surface complaints  Speaking from your "core sage self" (wise, loving adult) rather than reactive parts  The distinction between being nice (self-abandoning) and being kind (self-honoring)  When to Speak Up  Why waiting longer than 24 hours allows resentment to grow  Common excuses that keep us from addressing issues (wrong time, they're tired, etc.)  Most conversations don't need to be long—short, clear, vulnerable statements work best  You can't control your partner's response, but you can control showing up for yourself  Building the Assertiveness Muscle  Why successful women often struggle with assertiveness in intimate relationships  Starting small with low-stakes vulnerable moments  The confidence boost that comes from speaking your truth  How assertiveness differs from aggressiveness  The Meta-Conversation Strategy When your partner repeatedly responds poorly to vulnerability: "I notice that I try to bring up things and share my feelings. I'm taking great effort to say things in a way that's tactful and diplomatic, but honest, and it seems like when I do, I get a defensive or dismissive response. I don't really know where to go from here. Have you noticed that? What's going on with you? Are you willing to work on this with me?"  Signs It's Working  Reduction in fear when bringing up difficult topics  Growing confidence in expressing yourself  Your partner responding with openness rather than defensiveness  Feeling closer and more connected after vulnerable conversations  Even if they don't respond well—you're getting information faster and can make empowered choices  After Betrayal: Special Considerations  Why vulnerability feels especially terrifying after intimate partner betrayal  The connection to Stage 3 of the Five Stages from Betrayal to Breakthrough (doing the same thing expecting different results)  How moving into Stages 4 and 5 requires having uncomfortable conversations  Being vulnerable doesn't guarantee you won't get hurt, but not being vulnerable guarantees disconnection  Vulnerability helps you discover more quickly what a relationship will or won't give you  Powerful Quotes from the Episode  "Being in a relationship is inherently unsafe. It is a risk. But if you're willing to be vulnerable, you're going to find out more quickly what a relationship will and will not give you, and you can make choices that empower and serve your needs."  "It's actually not about the coffee cup. It's about the fact that lately I feel like I'm communicating with you and you're not hearing me, and that makes me feel inside—my vulnerable part feels like I'm not important to you."  "You've got to speak up no matter what. I don't care how you were raised, what part of the country, what your personality was, who your partner is. This is something you do for you."  "Vulnerability is strength, but it is very, very scary. We could be rejected or abandoned. But the only way through fear is by doing—action in the face of fear is what develops the muscle."  "If your partner is repeatedly not listening, being dismissive, being defensive, then maybe that tells you something about, 'Do I want to invest in this relationship?' But if you're not being vulnerable and clear, then you're contributing to what's not working."  "The point of feelings, the point of emotion, is that they're information processing signals that point us to our needs."  "If you're going to bother to try to improve this relationship, we can't have anything better based on just fear of even speaking up."  Colette's Personal Journey  Childhood Experience:  Idyllic childhood until age 10 when parents' marriage began deteriorating  Parents (lawyer mother, doctor father) engaged in epic daily fighting  Dealt with parental infidelity and eventual divorce  Became parentified—taking on emotional mediator role inappropriate for her age  Made meaning that she had to rely on herself because adults couldn't care for her properly  Rebelled against Catholic school environment as a way of coping  First Marriage:  Married someone from a conflict-avoidant Southern family  Partner was emotionally unavailable and disconnected  When she tried to express feelings, received dismissive, defensive, or distancing responses  Learned to silence herself to "keep the peace"  Marriage failed after having children, leading her to return to graduate school  Path to Her Work:  Bad experience in marriage counseling inspired her to become a marriage counselor  Spent 11 years between marriages dating and experiencing significant betrayals  Been cheated on by two partners in ways that "gutted" her  Now in second marriage of 9 years (together 12 years)  Uses EMDR therapy in her practice  Wrote "The Cost of Quiet" to provide a preventative roadmap for others  Practical Takeaways  Connect with your inner child before vulnerable conversations - Acknowledge the fear, reassure yourself you've got your own back no matter the outcome  Use the template for vulnerable communication:  Start small with low-stakes topics  Use I-statements, not you-statements  Speak to deeper needs, not just surface complaints  Be specific about what you need  Address issues within 24 hours - Don't let resentment build by waiting for the "perfect time"  Watch for your own conflict avoidance patterns:  Are you criticizing instead of being vulnerable?  Are you bickering about surface issues?  Are you staying silent to keep the peace?  Remember: Vulnerability invites vulnerability - When you show up authentically, you often get authenticity back  Let go of trying to control your partner's response - You can't manage how they'll react, but you can show up for yourself  Apply this skill everywhere - Practice assertive, vulnerable communication in all relationships, not just romantic ones  Resources  Connect with Colette Fehr:  Website: ColetteFehr.com   Instagram: @ColetteJaneFehr  TikTok: @ColetteJaneFehr  Book: "The Cost of Quiet" (available on her website and wherever books are sold)  Podcasts:  "Insights from the Couch" (for women at midlife)  "Love Thy Neighbor" (all about relationships)  For Post Betrayal Syndrome® Recovery:  Learn more about the Five Stages from Betrayal to Breakthrough™  Visit The PBT Institute for resources on healing from betrayal and becoming a Certified PBT Coach or Practitioner  Episode Themes  #Communication #VulnerabilityIsStrength #BetrayalRecovery #HealthyRelationships #ConflictResolution #EmotionalIntelligence #Assertiveness #InnerChildWork #RelationshipHealing #SelfAdvocacy #TheCostOfQuiet

    You feel it when your estranged (or formerly estranged) adult child is in the room. The conversation is surface-level. You second-guess everything. You remind yourself, "I have to be careful." "Walking on eggshells" is a common experience for parents of estranged adult children, especially during the reconciliation phase of estrangement. Parents might not know exactly why their child became distant, but they want to keep it from happening again.  Some parents feel afraid of making their child angry. They desperately want to avoid conflict, even while wishing for more closeness. They're caught between fear and longing. Almost all parents feel awkward after estrangement, as they embrace different skills and behaviors for the first time. The journey from "conscious incompetence" to "conscious competence" and beyond, can be long. Ongoing tension can be expected after estrangement, in the context of your personal history. And there may be no getting around that walking-on-eggshells feeling for a while. But parents who can recognize, understand, and tolerate it might have an easier time.

    In this repost episode of the Awake & Winning Podcast, Kaylor Betts sits down with Dr. Taylor Bean, ND to tackle one of the most polarizing topics of the last few years: vaccines, informed consent, and trust in modern medicine. Kaylor breaks down why so many people feel the "safe and effective" narrative ignored nuance, risk, and lived experience, especially after COVID-era messaging. Dr. Bean shares her clinical perspective on vaccines as a tool, why she prioritizes informed consent over coercion, and how she approaches families who want a more individualized plan. They dig into infant immunity, the realities of efficacy data, and why respectful conversation matters more than medical tribalism. Dr. Taylor Bean is a naturopathic doctor and vaccine educator focused on helping patients ask better questions, understand options, and make fully informed choices.     Episode Highlights: informed consent, vaccine risk-benefit, medical trust, COVID backlash, infant immunity, TH1/TH2, vaccine schedule, efficacy data, aluminum adjuvants, immune inflammation, parental autonomy, healthcare coercion       Takeaways: Informed consent matters more than pressure or fear-based messaging Vaccine decisions feel different when trust in institutions is broken Infant immunity works differently than adult immunity "Safe and effective" messaging can backfire when nuance is ignored Tools work best when the body is supported with sleep, nutrition, and recovery Parents want answers delivered with respect, not dismissal If choosing no vaccines, having an illness support plan and toolbox matters   If this episode lit a fire under you, don't keep it to yourself.
