Genevieve brings the case against her dad, Mike. He won't let her pay for him when they go out. If Genevieve does manage to pay, Mike keeps track so he can restore the balance later. As the father, he believes he should always pay his own way. Genevieve wants to be able to pick up the tab without Mike adding the transaction to his mental ledger.

We're raising girls in a world where filters are the norm, “what I eat in a day” videos flood their feeds, and puberty hits earlier than ever. It's no wonder body image struggles start young. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Melisa Holmes to talk about how parents can help their daughters build confidence in their changing bodies without shame, fear, or comparison. We'll cover how to talk about puberty in age-appropriate ways, what to do when kids start noticing body differences, and how to handle tricky moments like when your child says, “I feel fat.” You'll also learn: Why body image starts long before puberty What not to say (and what helps instead) How your own body talk shapes how your child feels about theirs How social media is shaping kids' self-worth—and what parents can do about it To connect with Dr. Melisa Holmes check out all her resources at https://girlology.com/.  Follow her on Instagram at @dr.melisa.holmes and @girlology.  For 20% off an annual subscription (after a free 7 day trial) go HERE and use this code: PedsDocTalk to activate your discount.

His mother had a breakdown. His father grabbed a bat and went to kill the man. Then came the arrest, the court case, and the decision that would make everything worse: going on television to talk about it. Overnight, he became the kid nobody wanted their children near. Teachers whispered. Parents pulled their kids away. The bullying intensified. He was labeled damaged goods, living proof that some wounds mark you forever. But one summer, his Uncle Marvin asked him a question nobody else had bothered with: "How are you feeling?" They sat together working through emotional vocabulary, and Marc realized he couldn't name a single time he'd felt elated, but he could talk all day about feeling alienated. That conversation became the foundation for everything that followed.Years later, Marc saw "Emotional Intelligence" on the cover of Time Magazine and recognized his uncle's work from twenty years earlier. He pulled Uncle Marvin out of retirement, and they met at a Dunkin Donuts in Fort Lauderdale to build a curriculum that would eventually change how schools teach kids about emotions. Marc earned his PhD studying with the scientists who pioneered emotional intelligence research, got a fifth degree black belt in Hapkido, practiced Zen meditation, and spent three decades researching what it actually takes to heal. Now a professor at Yale (the same school that once rejected him), he's honest about what it required: an uncle who cared enough to ask, thirty years of dedicated study, martial arts discipline, and relentless inner work. Lewis and Marc dig into why accomplishing every goal on your list means nothing if you still don't feel enough, and how emotional education is the missing piece most people never get access to.Sign up for the Greatness newsletter: http://www.greatness.com/newsletter Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

What happens when being the “uncool mom” is actually the coolest choice you can make? Rebecca and Seth open up about parenting through peer pressure, party culture, and keeping kids safe in a world where “everyone's doing it.” Rebecca Greene proudly wears the title of “The Uncool Mom” — the mom who says no to buying alcohol, drugs, or vaping supplies for her kids. In this honest conversation, she and Seth share the realities of raising teens in today's world. From setting boundaries and modeling healthy choices to maintaining open communication, they show how love sometimes looks like rules and how safety always outweighs being the “cool” parent. Six Key Takeaways→ Being “uncool” can mean you're the most responsible parent in the room.→ Parents who supply alcohol or drugs to minors face serious legal consequences.→ Keep communication open so kids feel safe telling the truth — even about mistakes.→ Safety lessons like swimming, helmets, and sober driving are non-negotiable.→ Sharing your own experiences helps kids see your guidance as real, not judgmental.→ Teach kids how to respond to peer pressure with confidence and self-respect. Quote from Rebecca“I'd rather be the uncool mom than the mom who has to regret a preventable mistake. My kids can roll their eyes all they want — I'll take that over risking their safety any day.” Call to Action Have your kids listen to this one, then discuss it. Honest conversations save lives.Subscribe at Whinypaluza.com and sign up for Rebecca's free parenting and marriage newsletter to join a community of families who care, connect, and grow together.

Today's episode title is a mouthful and for good reason. As first-gen Latinas, we're parenting and reparenting every single day. We live in that in-between space: raised one way by our parents, yet raising our own kids in a completely different world. There's healing here. There's unlearning. There's love, and yes, sometimes tears. We open our hearts in this conversation, asking questions like: What does it mean to say “I'm sorry” while still waiting to hear it from our parents? This one's raw, real, and deeply relatable. We hope you'll tune in to feel seen, maybe shed a tear (we sure did), and share in the beautiful mess of growing, healing, and breaking cycles... together.

Are your toddler's meltdowns leaving you “touched out” and wondering how to stay calm? What if the fastest way to end tantrums is more connection—not more limits?In this video, we break down attachment parenting for toddlers—the practical, science-aligned way to reduce tantrums, boost cooperation, and rebuild calm (in you and your child). You'll learn why kids imitate your emotions but can't yet regulate them, how to be the adult in the room, and the exact strategies we used to go 16+ years without tantrums in our home.We'll show you how to increase your capacity (food, sleep, recovery) so you're not running on empty, plus simple co-regulation tools like cuddle-pauses, couch resets, and family calm breaks. Attachment isn't coddling—it's how kids become secure and independent. When their emotional bucket is full, clinginess drops and behavior improves. Parenting isn't convenient—but it can be effective.Key Takeaways✅ Attachment first makes every other parenting strategy work better✅ Capacity over boundaries: build yourself up so you can show up✅ Food & sleep are fuel for patience, presence, and self-control✅ Fill the bucket daily: secure kids act better and rebel less✅ Pause > push through: a 2-minute cuddle beats a 20-minute battleMemorable Quotes

iIn this powerful conversation, Tania sits down with Jonathan Alderson to challenge two of the most persistent myths about autism: the “five-year window” and the “myth of ritual.” Together they unpack the damaging idea that meaningful progress in autism must happen before age five, replacing it with hope, science, and lived experience that affirm growth across the lifespan. They also explore how so-called “rigid rituals” often serve a vital purpose in creating predictability, safety, and regulation.Jonathan shares a compassionate, neurodiversity-affirming lens that helps parents and educators see these behaviors as communication, not pathology. This episode is a reminder that autistic development is not bound by time and that honoring ritual can be an act of respect, not resistance.To find out more about Jonathan's incredible work, click hereThrive Guide: https://www.thriveguide.co/Book: Challenging the Myths of Autism: Click hereInstagram: Click hereWanting more from ICP?

These dual perspectives (parent and child) in one narrative to validate parents' feelings, reduce isolation, and offer hope and clarity. -Janelle sought real-life accounts over “how-to” guides to understand others' emotions, thoughts, and experiences during a child's addiction. -A robust parent program at The Pathway Program (Phoenix) connected her with other parents; weekly meetings were pivotal to feeling safe, seen, and not judged. -She pursued her own recovery (sponsor and 12 steps) to understand her daughter's world and to have informed conversations—an unexpectedly life-changing step. -Like grief groups, parent recovery support equips, reframes expectations, reduces isolation, and fosters compassion. -Many programs offer family weekends or encourage Al-Anon/Nar-Anon; walking into meetings is hard but profoundly helpful. -Addiction is widely misjudged as “bad people making bad choices.” Families can look “normal.” Judgment and silence fuel isolation. -Divorce, parental conflict, and manipulation by Reagan's father harmed both children; Reagan felt unloved relative to her brother and experienced sexual abuse at age five (disclosed later). -God's guidance felt evident in finding The Pathway Program and a tough, effective counselor for Reagan; long-term approach (2–2.5 years) was crucial. -Scripture study, worship, prayer, and teachings (notably Beth Moore) sustained her; she experienced divine provision (finances, people, peace) throughout. -Not all counselors understand addiction—seek specialists; forcing counseling rarely works without willingness. -Post-sobriety, mother and daughter had raw conversations, apologies, and interviews for the book, deepening empathy and respect. -“Losing Her, Finding Us” is a raw, hopeful, page-turning narrative for parents, loved ones, and anyone seeking compassion, practical insights (boundaries, hard decisions), and resources. -Janelle leads Parents of Addicted Loved Ones (PAL) meetings in Houston on Wednesdays at 7 PM—free, ongoing, and transformative for parents. -Addiction happens to everyday families. Seek support, cultivate compassion, and learn how to be a helpful ally. There are people ready to take your hand. -Resources mentioned were Al-Anon, Nar-Anon, Celebrate Recovery, PAL, and long-term adolescent/young adult programs. PODCAST INTRO: As my guest Janelle Martin shares, addiction affects normal people. I personally think there is no boundary that addiction won't cross. Mainly because when we use a substance to alleviate pain, find escape, dull our feelings; plain and simple … it works. Janelle learned this (addiction affects normal people) and countless other things associated with addiction when it came to light that her daughter Regan was using in order to cope with parental heartbreak, trauma and the overwhelm that it brought to her life. Janelle's journey through addiction from the parent's perspective began with fear, grief, and the heavy stigma that so often hushes families. She grew up believing addiction happened to “other people,” until it shattered her own home. What followed was a crash course in letting go, setting hard boundaries, and grieving the loss of shared memories, milestones (specifically her senior year because it all came to a head at that time)—so she didn't go to the prom, she did not graduate with her class and nor did she get to enjoy all the ways that celebration culminates after 12 years of schooling. Janette found herself missing the simple joy of “normal.” A turning point came through community. While Reagan entered a long-term adolescent recovery program in Arizona, Janelle found that this recovery program also had a parent group that met weekly—there is such incredible value in finding people who understand without explanation. Encouraged to “work her own recovery,” she got a sponsor and worked the 12 steps, not because Janelle had a substance problem, but her greatest desire was to see her daughter healed so this was how she could meet her daughter where she was. The 12 step process unexpectedly transformed Janelle's life. Faith sustained her. She cried out to the Lord, tearfully lamenting in her car. At work she'd be the only one in the office so she would play worship music and she would cry. She'd take long walks with Beth Moore teachings in her earbuds and she would cry—she found strength, provision, and practical help in places only God could have orchestrated. As an example, she knew nothing about how to address addiction, and she certainly knew nothing about how to begin recovery and yet from a random google search she found the perfect facility and was matched with the right counselor that could work with her daughter in a productive way. Also, being able to afford her daughter's treatment and the opportunity to travel to see her a few times, funds that were already drained from the divorce and custody battle somehow stretched. Provision met her at every step. Today, Janelle leads meetings for her group, Parents of Addicted Loved Ones. She offers resources and encouragement to families who feel alone. Her message is simple and liberating: addiction happens to ordinary families. You didn't cause it. You can't cure it. But you don't have to walk it alone. If addiction has touched your home—or the home of someone you love—there is help and hope for the journey. You're not alone mainly because Jesus has promised to never leave nor forsake you but He also gives us tangible resources and people who have walked the road we may find ourselves on and they're ready to lock arms, comfort and lead when possible. Let's listen in to discover Janelle's story and how this has changed not only her life…but because of what she's been through and the passion she has to help others, she's changing the lives of countless parents and families.

People use language to express themselves, but do you ever wonder how other animals communicate with each other? If they don't speak like us, how do they convey information? In our first Animal Talk episode we learned about the complex ways animals communicate, and how some species even have their own languages and dialects. In “Paw 2” we find out even more about the amazing world of animal talk, and about the science behind linguistic development in animals.

Chris Hill created a concept of eco-luxury vacations that include philanthropic volunteering. The vision began in 2002, during a trip to South Africa, where he helped build a home for a local family. Hands Up Holidays That experience was more fulfilling than his successful finance career in London, inspiring him to pursue a new path. He launched Hands Up Holidays, which later included this additonal concierge service for Impact Destinations. Impact Destinations – EcoLuxury His background in finance became an advantage — many of his former colleagues became early investors. For over 20 years, Impact Destinations has curated hands-on philanthropic travel experiences for families. Chris recognized a growing trend among his clients: many families are "cash rich and time poor." Parents want their children to have meaningful experiences that build empathy, compassion, and global awareness. Families now seek out Chris specifically to design philanthropic eco-luxury vacations. Examples of unique, hands-on volunteer experiences include:
 Working with wildlife experts to rescue a rhinoceros from poachers and relocate it to a protected sanctuary. Traveling to Baja, California, to release newly hatched sea turtles into the ocean, supporting marine conservation. Every itinerary emphasizes sustainability, including:
 Eco-lodges sourced from local and renewable materials Clean-burning stove projects that eliminate open-flame cooking and reduce respiratory illnesses Impact Destinations and Hands Up Holidays prove that travel can be luxurious for the traveler — and life-changing for others.   RESOURCES Preview YouTube video About Impact Destinations - transformational luxury travel Chris Hill and His Journey Creating HandsUpHolidays and Impact Destinations   https://youtu.be/9RvAFlFg-8g?si=qOTApDLk4x_KcxR0     Chris Hill's FIRST philanthropic travel brand  Hands Up Holidays search here for exquisite Eco Luxury lodgings: Costa Rica leads the world in its commitment to eco-luxury, with a large number of sublime properties, including Kasiiya, El Silencio, Lapa Rios, and Pacuare Lodge.

Today we're talking marriage with Dr. Ken Wilgus — not our marriages (although we detoured there), but our kids' future ones. Dr. Ken discusses research that says we shouldn't panic if our kids consider getting married younger than the cultural norm. Marriage isn't just a “capstone” once you're fully established — sometimes it's a cornerstone that builds adulthood together.We unpack cultural trends, fear-based parenting, and why avoiding the dating conversation doesn't actually protect your teens. Dr. Ken challenges us to talk openly about marriage, consider how our own marriage baggage might influence our advice, and stop assuming later is always better.We wrap with dating checklists, the pressure Christian young adults feel to find the “perfect godly spouse,” and one final gold-nugget from Dr. Ken that you cannot miss (hint: it has to do with our own marriages). If you have a minute, please leave us a review.

In this episode of Read the Damn Book, host Michelle Glogovac sits down with Dr. Akilah Cadet, author of White Supremacy Is All Around, and a leading voice in diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). Together, they explore how systemic racism shapes our workplaces and communities, what it truly means to practice allyship versus being an accomplice, and how individuals and organizations can take real action toward equity.Dr. Cadet opens up about her lived experiences as a Black disabled woman, the realities of running a DEI consulting business amid cultural pushback, and her groundbreaking role as a co-owner of professional soccer teams in the Bay Area. Through honesty, humor, and insight, this conversation challenges listeners to embrace accountability, learning, and unlearning in the ongoing fight for justice and inclusion.What We're Talking About...Dr. Akilah Cadet reminds us that real progress begins when we learn to be comfortable with discomfort.Diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts are facing growing resistance in today's social and business climate.White supremacy is sustained by fear and the desire to hold on to power.True change requires more than allyship — it calls for becoming an active accomplice in the fight for equity.Parents play a vital role in helping future generations understand race, privilege, and empathy.Growth happens through both learning and unlearning, with humility as the foundation.Accountability is essential for individuals and institutions that perpetuate harm.Dr. Cadet's co-ownership of Bay Area soccer teams shows why representation matters in every industry.Dismantling systemic racism is a collective effort that depends on everyone's participation.Dr. Cadet's story highlights both the challenges and the strength of marginalized communities.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Background of Dr. Akilah Cadet07:48 The Impact of 2020 on DEI Work13:49 The Role of Fear in White Supremacy19:45 Understanding Allyship vs. Accompliceship25:30 Raising Awareness and Responsibility in Parenting30:38 Understanding Privilege and Humanity34:22 Learning and Unlearning in Society36:40 Calling In vs. Calling Out39:38 Navigating Racism in Professional Spaces41:26 Becoming a Co-Owner in Sports54:24 Personal Reflections and Future Aspirations54:52 Embracing Discomfort for Change55:20 Accountability and Awareness in SocietyLinks MentionedSocials : @changecadetDr. Akilah Cadet's Website: https://www.changecadet.com/White Supremacy Is All Around: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/akilah-cadet-dhsc-mph/white-supremacy-is-all-around/9780306831034/Dr. Akilah Cadet's Substack: https://changecadetactionnetwork.substack.com/Author BioDr. Akilah Cadet is the Founder and CEO of Change Cadet, an organizational development and creative consulting firm that offers services that support embedding belonging into overall company culture, identity, strategy and storytelling.

Let's be honest — sometimes it's not the kids who need a pep talk, it's us adults.This week, we're unpacking the real reasons parents feel anxious watching their kids play sports — and how that pressure trickles down to the field.We also tackle the classic conundrum:

We happily welcome Dr. Adi Soffer to Diverse Thinking Different Learning this week! Adi Soffer, PsyD is a licensed psychologist who works with children, teens, and families, and she combines family structure therapy with evidence-based practices to help families strengthen communication, establish healthy boundaries, and deepen emotional connections. Passionate about guiding parents and children through challenges such as anxiety, behavioral issues, and major life changes, Dr. Soffer offers care via her private practice, Kesher Psychological Services. She sees clients in Los Angeles and provides virtual sessions throughout California and Florida. When a child is struggling with learning, behavioral, or emotional challenges, the focus is often on finding the right therapy for the child. However, as Dr. Adi Soffer explains, this approach may be missing an important piece - the family system. She firmly believes that families function as interconnected systems, and when one member is struggling, the whole system feels the impact. By shifting the focus from fixing the child to strengthening the entire family system, families can reduce stress, improve relationships, and lead to better outcomes for kids and teens. Dr. Soffer outlines her approach to family systems therapy, bringing the entire family into the first session, not just "the identified patient." Instead of discussing the child's problems, she asks questions about the family's dynamics, traditions, and what they would like to change. This allows her to observe the family's communication patterns, boundaries, and power dynamics. She also highlights the importance of understanding the family's structure and communication style, as these factors can deeply impact a child's emotional well-being and behavior. Dr. Soffer explains how poor communication, conflict avoidance, or unclear expectations can contribute to ongoing stress at home, which in turn affects the child. By working with the family, however, she helps them develop healthier communication and set clear expectations and boundaries. This, in turn, can reduce the child's anxiety and stress, as they no longer have to worry about the unpredictability of their home environment. We also explore how the family systems approach shifts when working with teenagers, who are often pushing for more independence, with Dr. Soffer discussing the importance of balancing the teen's need for autonomy with the family's need for involvement and how this can create an environment of empathy and connection within the family. Overall, we highlight the powerful impact that a family systems approach can have on supporting children and teens struggling with various challenges. By addressing the entire family system, therapists can create lasting change and help the whole family thrive.   Show Notes: [3:03] - Hear how Dr. Adi Soffer begins therapy by including the entire family system rather than isolating the child. [6:43] - Dr. Soffer observes family dynamics via structured activities, games, and collaborative drawing. [9:32] - Family therapy examines communication, boundaries, and where each member fits in the relational hierarchy. [12:21] - Dr. Soffer makes the case that clear routines and consistent boundaries reduce chaos and help children feel secure and less anxious. [14:29] - Parents often unintentionally reinforce anxiety by teaching children that the world is frightening. [16:27] - Therapy highlights how children's struggles often reflect parental triggers and emotional challenges. [19:29] - Removing the "identified patient" label eases a child's burden and reduces family pressure. [20:13] - Dr. Soffer argues that constant focus on negative behavior teaches children to internalize damaging beliefs about themselves. [22:02] - Teens need both autonomy and clear parental boundaries to be successfully independent. [25:28] - Families begin to align as a team when therapy highlights shared responsibility and individual identity. [27:39] - Dr. Soffer explains how emotional Jenga can help parents model vulnerability and normalize healthy emotional expression for children. [30:27] - Hear how a teen realized that his parents' feelings mattered too after returning from a month away. [32:34] - Dr. Soffer argues that parents build resilience by balancing support with boundaries and not over-accommodating their kids. [35:09] - A parent's real role is preparing children to face failure, rejection, and life's challenges. [36:18] - It's important for children to face discomfort and uncertainty instead of being shielded by anxious parents. [39:18] - Dr. Soffer asserts that focusing on family strengths can transform household dynamics and improve the overall atmosphere. [40:38] - How can Dr. Soffer be reached?

Send us a textWant your child to trade boredom and entitlement for empathy, confidence, and real-world skills? We unpack how consistent, hands-on service can flip that switch. We dive into why serving others accelerates brain development from self-focus to perspective-taking, and how repeated, real-life interactions build emotional intelligence that screens can't teach. You'll hear how mission work reframes what kids think they need to be happy. If your teen is stuck, we outline small, likely-to-succeed steps: a food bank drop-off, a nursing home visit, or a neighborhood cleanup. We share red flags like chronic boredom, entitlement, and the growing “I need” list, plus the counterintuitive fix: more service, not more stuff. Parents will learn to model compassion through tiny daily acts—holding doors, returning neighbors' trash bins, paying it forward—and to frame service as “helping others,” not punishment. The result is a family identity built on showing up, preparing kids to be good neighbors, grounded leaders, and trusted teammates employers actually seek.Ready to build empathy, gratitude, and purpose at home?

In a world that tells our girls to "trust their feelings" above all else, how can we teach them to discern truth from deception? Join hosts Rachael Culpepper and Natalie Ambrose for a rich, Spirit-led conversation on growing discernment—the ability to recognize God's truth, resist deception, and make wise decisions rooted in faith.  Rachael and Natalie explore the difference between simply following our instincts and tuning our hearts to the voice of the Holy Spirit. Drawing from both Scripture and real-life parenting moments, they unpack how discernment is more than a gut feeling—it's a trained skill that develops over time through prayer, Scripture study, and a deep relationship with Christ.  You'll also hear from Patti Garibay, American Heritage Girls Founder & Executive Director Emeritus, as she shares a powerful Raising Godly Girls Minute, reminding parents to equip their daughters to spot Satan's subtle lies before they strike. Together, the hosts offer practical tools to help parents nurture girls who are both aware and anchored—unafraid of the world's deception because they are grounded in the Word.  By the end of this episode, you'll be encouraged to create intentional rhythms of prayer and conversation at home that help your daughter discern what's true, what's eternal, and what's simply noise. When she learns to slow down, listen, and seek God's wisdom first, she'll become a young woman confident in her calling and courageous in her convictions.  Three Key Points to Remember  Identity forms discernment. A girl who knows who and Whose she is becomes less vulnerable to the world's deception.  Discernment takes practice. Like a muscle, it grows stronger through consistency, clarity, and Scripture-guided reflection.  Prayer anchors discernment. Prayer is not passive—it's a weapon. Teach your girl to pray for wisdom and spiritual alertness daily.    Scripture References in This Episode  1 Corinthians 16:13 – "Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong."  Philippians 1:9–11 – "That your love may abound more and more, with knowledge and all discernment…"  Ephesians 6:10–18 – The armor of God and the call to pray in the Spirit at all times.  Psalm 119:66 – "Teach me good judgment and knowledge, for I believe in your commandments."  2 Corinthians 11:14 – "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light."  Deuteronomy 6:6–7 – Parents are called to teach God's commands diligently to their children.  For more from Natalie Ambrose, visit natalieatwell.com.  Explore more resources to raise girls rooted in Christ at raisinggodlygirls.com.  To find or start an AHG Troop in your area, visit americanheritagegirls.org.
