Podcasts about Raising

As parents, many of us want to raise kind, empathetic kids, but we don't always feel equipped to talk about race, bias, and identity in everyday life. In honor of Black History Month, this conversation feels especially important. I sit down with culturally responsive therapist Anjali Ferguson to unpack how early children begin noticing differences and how small, ordinary moments shape their understanding of the world. We talk about the discomfort adults feel, the fear of saying the wrong thing, and why silence often teaches more than we realize. This episode is not about blame. It is about giving families tools to move forward with intention. Dr. Ferguson brings both professional expertise and deeply personal experience as a South Asian woman raising biracial South Asian and Black children. Together we explore how culture, trauma, and identity intersect in parenting, and why these conversations are not optional extras, but foundational to raising emotionally healthy kids. Her children's book, An Ordinary Day, shows how subtle bias can show up in everyday childhood experiences and how families can use those moments to build empathy instead of fear. My hope is that this episode helps parents feel less frozen and more ready to start small, stay curious, and keep showing up. We discussed:  • Why kids notice race and differences earlier than most adults expect • How racial bias forms in early childhood • The gap in culturally responsive parenting resources • Growing up between cultures and identity formation • Raising biracial children and protecting cultural identity • Everyday microaggressions and their long-term impact • How racism creates chronic stress in the body • Generational trauma and epigenetic effects • The role of racial socialization in protecting children • Why avoiding conversations about race harms kids • How parents can respond when bias shows up in real time • Teaching empathy through ordinary daily moments • Building diverse environments through books, toys, and media • Supporting kids when they experience exclusion or bias • Why parents don't have to be perfect to start • Practical ways families can talk about race at any age To connect with Dr. Anjali Ferguson follow her on Instagram @dranjaliferguson, check out all her resources at https://draferguson.com/ and buy her book “An Ordinary Day”: https://www.amazon.com/Ordinary-Day-Dr-Anjali-Ferguson/dp/B0B8BDNXVK  Additional Resources: www.parentingculture.org 00:00 The Hidden Impact of Microaggressions 00:56 Why This Conversation Matters During Black History Month 02:57 Representation in Parenting Spaces 06:34 Dr. Anjali's Personal Story: Culture, Trauma, and Identity 10:42 Racism as Trauma: A Professional Awakening 14:30 Parenting Biracial Black Children 19:32 When Do Kids Notice Race? 24:56 Inside An Ordinary Day and Why It Matters 31:37 Chronic Stress, Racism, and Long-Term Health 37:13 What to Say When Bias Happens 42:51 Why Every Family Must Talk About Race 47:18 You Will Mess Up, And That's Okay Our podcasts are also now on YouTube.

One of my biggest FAQs involves questions about chores, kids' responsibilities, and teaching children self-discipline. On this episode, I invite my friend RuthAnn Zimmerman to share her wisdom about intentionally facilitating responsibility and stewardship in children through hard work, discipline, and appropriate expectations. She talks about how they chose to take on animals and tasks for the sake of giving their children meaningful work, how we as moms should be “working ourselves out of a job”—at least for a time— and why our idolization of childhood can actually hold our children back.

In this powerful episode of The Sisterhood of Sweat, we sit down with Mike Hammond for a real, unfiltered conversation about resilience, ownership, and what it actually takes to rebuild when life forces you to level up. Mike shares his personal journey through adversity, the hard lessons that shaped his leadership, and the mindset shifts required to move from reaction to intention. This isn't about hype. It's about standards. It's about discipline. It's about deciding who you are going to be when pressure hits. We talk about: • The defining moments that forced Mike to change • Why most people stay stuck in patterns they know aren't serving them • How adversity can either refine you or define you • Taking radical ownership instead of blaming circumstances • What rebuilding looks like behind the scenes • Leadership under pressure • Emotional control versus emotional reaction • Creating structure and discipline when motivation fades • Raising your standards in relationships, business, and personal growth Mike breaks down the difference between wanting change and becoming change. He speaks honestly about the uncomfortable realities of personal growth and why clarity comes from action — not waiting. Some powerful moments from this conversation: "You can't outperform your standards." "The story you keep telling yourself is either your prison or your permission." "Pressure doesn't break strong people. It exposes weak systems." "Growth starts where excuses end." The biggest takeaway? Nobody is coming to rescue you. The shift happens when you decide to lead yourself differently. If you're feeling stuck, frustrated, or called into a higher level of performance, this episode will challenge you to stop waiting and start building.

In this episode of InContext with Michael Easley, Pastor Daniel Batarseh shares his journey from studying creative advertising to planting Maranatha Bible Church in Illinois — a growing, multi-ethnic church built on prayer, discipleship, and the faithful teaching of God's Word. Daniel explains how a revival moment among young adults led to long-term ministry, why Scripture must remain central in church life, and how simple biblical practices still produce deep spiritual transformation today. This conversation encourages pastors, leaders, and believers to trust the sufficiency of God's Word rather than ministry trends or complex programming. When churches gather around Scripture, prayer, and authentic community, God faithfully builds His people.Subscribe for more conversations that help you understand God's Word in context and live it out in everyday life.

Why does parenting feel so overwhelming, even when we're trying to do everything right? In this episode of Two Become Family, we explore how much of our stress, guilt, and burnout as parents comes from aiming at the wrong goal. When success is measured by calm children, good behavior, or having everything under control, everyday family life can quickly feel like failure.“Changing Our Aim” invites Catholic parents to rediscover the virtue of magnanimity, the call to live with a greatness of soul that aims beyond perfectionism and control. Rather than shrinking our expectations out of fear or comparison, magnanimity helps us set our sights on the true goal of parenting: forming hearts for love, virtue, and holiness. Through the lens of Lent, we talk honestly about missing the mark, feeling discouraged, and how re-aiming our hearts allows God's grace to do the real work.This episode lays the foundation for the entire Lenten series by reframing parenting not as performance, but as participation in God's slow, faithful work of transformation in family life.In this episode, we discuss:•Catholic parenting during Lent•What magnanimity really means for parents•Why control and perfection increase parental burnout•How changing your aim reduces guilt, shame, and comparison•Raising children with faith, hope, and trust in GodSupport the show

This week on the show, you're going to ride along with me from the incredibly comfortable and stylish VW ID.Buzz, which served as the mobile podcast studio at CEDIA Expo / CIX this September in Denver, Colorado. Were going back for more conversations from the show. Designer Resources Pacific Sales Kitchen and Home. Where excellence meets expertise. TimberTech – Real wood beauty without the upkeep CEDIA (Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association) is the global trade association for home technology professionals, specializing in smart home, automation, audio-visual, networking, and integrated systems. Its mission is to advance the home technology industry through education, certification, advocacy, and networking. Members include integrators, designers, manufacturers, and consultants who shape the connected environments we live and work in. CEDIA Expo is the industry's largest annual event for residential technology professionals. With hundreds of exhibitors, educational sessions, live demos, and global networking opportunities, it's where new ideas and innovations in smart home and AV integration take center stage. The Commercial Integrator Expo (CIX), co-located with CEDIA Expo, focuses on commercial integration technologies—from conferencing and IT infrastructure to building automation and emerging AV solutions—bringing together commercial integrators, IT pros, designers, and tech managers. Jason McGraw | Group VP and Show Director, CEDIA Expo / CIX Scope of the Show: McGraw details the scale of CEDIA Expo 2025, featuring over 350 exhibitors and immersive demo rooms that showcase integrated audio, video, and control systems. Integration Meets Design: Discussion centers on the critical partnership between integrators and the design-build community (interior designers, architects, builders). McGraw emphasizes that technology—ranging from AI and energy management to lighting—must be a foundational element of the design process, not an afterthought. The Business Case: Designers are encouraged to view integrators as essential trade partners, similar to electricians or plumbers, to better service clients and protect home networks. Dale Sandberg | Product Manager for Electronics, Sonance Aesthetic Performance: Sandberg discusses Sonance's philosophy that sound should support the design of a space rather than dominate it. The focus is on blending high-fidelity performance with discreet aesthetics. New Innovations: Highlights include the compact UA Series amplifiers designed to fit behind displays or in tight spaces, and the integration of professional-grade Blaze Audio amplifiers into the Sonance family. Outdoor Living: The conversation covers the growing trend of outdoor entertainment, where amplifiers and speakers are used to create immersive environments in backyards and outdoor kitchens. Jim Garrett | Senior Director of Product Strategy, Harman Luxury Audio Group Hidden Technology: Garrett addresses the challenge of eliminating “wall acne” through invisible speakers and design-integrated solutions that do not compromise acoustic performance. Pandemic Influence: The discussion explores how the pandemic shifted focus toward outdoor living and unconventional entertainment spaces, including garages and multi-generational gaming setups. Brand Portfolio: Insights into the product strategies for Harman's luxury brands—JBL, Revel, Mark Levinson, and JBL Synthesis—and the importance of gathering direct feedback from integrators to drive R&D.

At his first CEDIA Expo, Dale highlights Sonance's latest innovations, from compact UA Series amplifiers designed to disappear behind displays to Blaze Audio's professional-grade amplifiers now integrated into the Sonance family. With a philosophy that sound should enhance the design of a space rather than dominate it, Sonance is shaping how integrators and designers deliver immersive, comfortable experiences both indoors and out.

Blaze Audio Amplifiers Sonance acquisition of Blaze Audio brand (Pascal, Denmark). Range from 60W per channel up to 400W bridged. Full DSP capability, rack-mountable, UL-rated. Outdoor applications via weather-rated cases. Design & Integration Perspective Compact electronics give designers freedom to hide gear while maintaining performance. Balancing performance and aesthetics: sound follows the design, not the other way around. Example: background music at parties that fills space without overwhelming conversation. Outdoor living trend: amplifiers and speakers enabling outdoor kitchens, theaters, and entertainment spaces. Company Ethos & Philosophy Mission: deliver complete audio solutions—amplification, processing, and speakers. Philosophy: the sonic experience should support the aesthetic experience of a home or space. Growth vision: expand residential dominance while building commercial presence. Takeaway: not just about volume—it's about creating the right experience.

This Uplevel Dairy Podcast episode features Dairy Calf and Heifer Association (DCHA) board members Jim Van Patter and Rodolfo Nava, as they discuss key practices for raising high-performing dairy replacement heifers and beef-on-dairy calves. Both emphasize that success starts with excellent colostrum management in the first 24 hours, followed by a high plane of nutrition, sanitation, ventilation, and calf comfort. Jim and Rodolfo compare calf-raising strategies that focus on nutrition, consistency, and labor efficiency. Both emphasize the value of strong colostrum and transition programs, with three-times-a-day feeding improving daily gain, reducing scours, and supporting better lung health—even with a modest added cost per calf.

"The procurement and supply chain professions are ever more relevant to the prosperity of nations and to businesses as we go into the future." - Ben Farrell, Global Chief Executive Officer, The Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply (CIPS) Striking a balance between tradition and disruption is at the top of the agenda for today's procurement leaders. Whether it's shifting global dynamics, technology, or the push for greater influence, the function's boundaries (and its reputation) are up for grabs. Ben Farrell brings a perspective forged in the British Army, major retail, and boardrooms worldwide. Now, as Global CEO of The Chartered Institute of Procurement & Supply (CIPS), he is focused on driving procurement's global profile and advancing the profession for a new generation.  In this episode, Ben shares hard-won leadership lessons and makes his case for a more visible, empowered procurement function. This is a candid conversation about risk, advocacy, and the urgent need to rebrand procurement for the value-driven world. In this episode, Ben covers: Reframing leadership from constraint to empowerment Navigating risk while still pursuing big opportunities Raising the profile of procurement inside and outside of an organization Embracing new technology as a catalyst, not a threat Why CIPS – and procurement itself – may need a new name Links: Ben Farrell on LinkedIn Subscribe to This Week in Procurement Subscribe to Art of Procurement on YouTube

Send a textLife can be hard, especially for our queer children. They often face unique obstacles, encounter discrimination, and endure marginalization in their lives and in their pursuits of happiness. Resilience helps our children (and us) cope with life's challenges and setbacks, allowing folks to recover and grow stronger from difficult experiences. Resilience fosters emotional regulation, optimism, and a strong support network, which are essential for maintaining mental well-being and overall life satisfaction. Joining us In the Den is Dr. Kate Lund, a licensed psychologist, Tedx Speaker, author of Stepping Away the Keys to Resilient Parenting, and an expert on the topic of resilience. Dr. Kate insists that resilience does not have to be complicated and that we all are capable of living our best lives, regardless of our setbacks.Special Guest: Dr. Kate LundDr. Kate Lund is a clinical psychologist, keynote speaker, published author, and resilience expert dedicated to helping individuals and families thrive within their own unique contexts. With advanced training from three Harvard-affiliated hospitals and decades of experience in clinical practice, Dr. Lund specializes in emotional intelligence, stress resilience, and sustainable well-being for parents, athletes, and high performers. She is the author of Bounce: Help Your Child Build Resilience and Thrive in School, Sports, and Life and Step Away: The Keys to Resilient Parenting. Dr. Lund also hosts Resilient Parenting with Dr. Kate, a podcast that explores the science and lived experience of resilience through conversations with parents, educators, clinicians, and leaders. Known for her relatable, evidence-based approach, Dr. Lund blends clinical expertise with personal insight as the mother of twin boys and while working as a volunteer with her dog Wally as part of the animal assisted therapy program at Seattle Children's Hospital.

President Trump just signaled a major escalation: raising global tariffs from 10% to 15%—right after the Supreme Court moved to strike down his use of tariffs under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act. Critics called it a defeat. Trump called the ruling “ridiculous.” And in this fast-moving, high-stakes interview, economist Christian Briggsbreaks down what's really happening behind the headlines—and why the market may have just revealed the real story.Briggs explains that the Supreme Court's decision isn't necessarily an anti-tariff ruling—it's a constitutional boundary marker. In other words: it's not “no tariffs,” it's “not that way.” He argues the Court is trying to preserve constitutional order by forcing tariff authority back toward Congress or tighter legal frameworks, while still leaving enough room for Trump to pivot immediately. That pivot, Briggs predicts, is coming fast—potentially within days—as Trump and his legal team roll out Plan B, designed to keep tariffs alive through a new method that fits within the Court's limits.Then Briggs gets into the economic impact—and this is where the interview gets real. He confirms tariffs have already driven measurable manufacturing behavior: international producers are shifting or expanding operations in the U.S. to avoid the tariff wall, while domestic manufacturing becomes more competitive. Jobs are beginning to return, and the economic “gravity” of supply chains is moving back toward America.But Briggs doesn't ignore the downside: consumers have already absorbed an estimated $150 billion in added costs from tariffs. The key question becomes: does short-term pain outweigh long-term gain? Briggs' answer is blunt—tariffs can sting, especially for the bottom half of earners, but he argues the real payoff comes when wages rise through high-value manufacturing jobs, turning short-term cost pressure into long-term prosperity. His forecast: if reshoring accelerates, the U.S. could see 4–5% GDP growth in 2027 driven by industrial expansion.The most surprising moment? Investors appeared to like the ruling. Markets bumped upward after the decision because traders interpreted it as clarity—not collapse. In Briggs' view, investors saw a scenario where tariffs continue, but with tighter legal guardrails, less uncertainty, and a clearer framework.Finally, Briggs addresses the political question: does this weaken Trump on the world stage? His answer: not even close.He argues Trump treats setbacks like business obstacles—simply one route that doesn't work, before finding the route that does. And that mindset, he says, makes Trump look stronger—not weaker—heading into the next round of negotiations.If you want the clearest breakdown of what this ruling means, what Trump's next move likely is, and why markets reacted the way they did—this is the episode to watch.

A bathroom laugh turned into a masterclass on resilience. We start with the messy, human moments—sick nights, forgotten bags, and a hotel check-in with no wallet—and trace how those hiccups reveal what our kids really need from us: presence over perfection, support without smothering, and the right kind of hype at the right time.From there, we get real about the tightrope parents walk. When your kid's crush fizzles or a coach leaves them on the bench, do you correct, console, or cheer like their best friend? We unpack how to read the room, why sometimes you validate the sting before you teach the lesson, and how to avoid turning every moment into a lecture. The heart of it all: kids grow most when they feel seen, not managed.Sports become our testing ground. Wrestling and jujitsu bring emotion to the surface fast—wins, losses, and the raw struggle to escape a hold. We break down how schools structure safe early exposure, what mismatches look like, and how parents can coach from the sidelines without rescuing. The takeaway isn't medals; it's tolerance for discomfort and the belief that effort changes outcomes. We also share practical scripts for letting kids talk to coaches and teachers, handle sibling conflicts, and own their choices—while knowing we're right there if they need backup.We close by reframing hard seasons as training, not failure. Life cycles through tough, neutral, and good; the goal isn't to dodge the hard parts but to learn you can survive them. Show up for their debate, their match, their play—whether you fully get it or not—and you teach them their voice matters. Tap play, subscribe, and share this with a parent who's learning to step back without stepping away. What's one challenge you're letting your kid own this week?

For this week's Kids Clinic, Shane is joined by Ollwyn Moran, Neuro Development Therapist & Founder of Cogni Kids to discuss how you can raise resilient children.

In today's episode I sit down with developmental psychologist Dr. Jay Belsky to explore a question so many parents wrestle with: is temperament destiny? We talk about why children differ in how deeply they're shaped by their environments, what “developmental plasticity” really means, and why the same parenting can land so differently depending on the child. We discuss the difference between sensitivity and susceptibility, the limits of attachment research, and why focusing only on long-term outcomes can distract us from what matters in the here and now.I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK!

In this episode of The Distribution, Brandon Sedloff sits down with Steven DeFrancis, Founder and CEO of Cortland, to unpack how multifamily evolved from a commodity product into a true consumer service business. Steven shares the story behind Cortland's transformation from a small merchant builder into a vertically integrated investment manager with more than 75,000 units and $20 billion in gross asset value. The conversation explores why operational depth, brand trust, and technology infrastructure now sit at the center of performance in living real estate. Steven walks through the post-GFC research that reshaped Cortland's strategy, the demographic shifts that extended renter lifecycles, and the deliberate decision to build operational infrastructure long before raising institutional LP capital.

2. South Korea's Shift Toward China Under Lee President Lee Jae-myung pursues socialist policies and anti-US sentiment, raising concerns about South Korea's alignment with China. Guest: Tara O, Gordon Chang1890 USS NAHUNT

Today's episode is all about raising boys, even if you're a girl mom like me. I sat down with Rebekah Lovell, author of Boyhood Resurrected, for a powerful and honest conversation about how modern systems are failing our boys, and what we can do about it. We talk about how boys are hardwired for adventure, movement, risk, curiosity, and strength, and how over-scheduling, over-screening, and over-labeling can slowly extinguish the light in their eyes. Rebekah shares her family's journey navigating early schooling challenges, why institutional systems often misunderstand boys, and how moms (especially!) play a crucial role in protecting and cultivating their sons' masculine design. This conversation will step on a few toes — gently. We talk about: The difference between discipline and suppression Why movement and autonomy matter Screen culture and its impact on boys The myth of being "behind" Adventure as a developmental need Respect as a love language for boys Raising driven, courageous men in a culture hostile to masculinity Even as a girl mom, I found so many parallels. Childhood matters. Wonder matters. Agency matters. And truthfully, this conversation ultimately points back to Jesus and how God intentionally wired our sons. If you're raising boys (or love someone who is), this episode will challenge, encourage, and equip you. Sponsor: Nutrafol Real growth doesn't come from quick fixes — it comes from consistent care.
