In this episode of The ADHD Parenting Podcast, hosts Ryan Wexelblatt and Mike McLeod explore what it means to “step into your parental authority.” Drawing from research and clinical experience, they discuss how authoritative parenting—balancing warmth with structure—helps children with ADHD develop self-regulation, emotional safety, and independence. The hosts challenge social media's rebranding of permissive parenting as “gentle” or “compassionate” and explain why consistency, clear expectations, and calm modeling are key. They also tackle the fears many parents have about being “too firm,” offering practical examples of how to set limits with empathy and predictability while nurturing connection and confidence in their children.

In this episode of the Born Wild Podcast, host Sophia Henderson speaks with Dr. Stuart Fischbein, an obstetrician with decades of experience advocating for physiological birth, midwifery collaboration, and informed consent. Dr. Stu shares his journey from medical student to outspoken advocate for respectful maternity care.They discuss the importance of understanding the risks associated with various birth methods — including breech births and VBACs — and emphasize the need for individualized care in obstetrics. This conversation shines light on the challenges within the maternity care system and the importance of trusting women's bodies during childbirth.⸻What You'll Learn: • How Dr. Stu's journey into obstetrics began unexpectedly • Why informed consent is often misunderstood in the medical system • The importance of midwives in supporting physiological birth • Why VBAC should be viewed as a standard variation of normal birth • How “high risk” is often defined by provider comfort rather than evidence • The decline of breech and twin birth skills — and why they matter • The dangers of profit-driven maternity care • How to rebuild trust in nature's design for birth⸻Guest Bio:Stuart J. Fischbein, MD is a community-based obstetrician and an Associate of the American College of Obstetrics & Gynecology. He is the author of Fearless Pregnancy, Wisdom & Reassurance from a Doctor, A Midwife, and A Mom and several peer-reviewed papers including Homebirth with an Obstetrician, Breech Birth at Home, and Twin Home Birth: Outcomes of 100 Sets of Twins in the Care of a Single Practitioner.After completing his residency at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles, Dr. Stu spent 24 years assisting women with hospital births before transitioning to homebirth obstetrics for over 12 years. Since retiring from attending births in 2022, he has focused on teaching and advocacy — traveling internationally to reteach breech and twin birth skills, promote respect for physiological birth, and uphold informed consent.He co-hosts the Birthing Instincts Podcast with Blyss Young, offering hope, reassurance, and evidence-based guidance to families who understand that pregnancy is a normal, healthy function — not a medical condition to be feared.
Scrupulosity isn't just “Catholic guilt gone too far”—it's a deeply painful form of OCD that can hijack your relationship with God. In this episode, Dr. Greg sits down with Stephanie Muncy, CatholicPsych's in-house expert (and someone who's lived it), to unpack what scrupulosity really is, how it distorts the spiritual life, and why the path to healing might look very different than you think. Key Topics: How scrupulosity is actually a debilitating form of OCD The scariest part of scrupulosity? It feels like it's about God—but it's really not Why obsessively going to confession or seeking reassurance only makes things worse The true root of scrupulosity isn't spiritual failure—it's unhealed anxiety How the need to “get it right” spiritually often masks a deeper wound Why you can't “logic your way out” of OCD What healing actually looks like—and why it's not about caring less Why even well-meaning spiritual advice can sometimes make things worse The most powerful thing you can offer someone suffering from scrupulosity Learn More: Blog articles by Stephanie Muncy: How to Settle Anxiety in the Heart and Mind of Someone with OCD The Love that Sets Us Free: A Compassionate Path through OCD Previously on the Being Human Podcast: Ep. #22: A Look at Obsessive Compulsive Disorder and Scrupulosity Catholic Mindfulness Virtual Retreat: An 8-week course that brings freedom from anxiety and depression by showing you how to live as if you really believe in a God who loves you.

Send us a textIn a healthcare system that routinely dismisses, blames, and denies treatment to fat patients, it's easy to doubt whether choosing to stay fat is the right decision. But here's the truth: you deserve a doctor who listens, believes, and validates you—regardless of your size. You have the absolute right to refuse to be weighed, to refuse weight loss, and to demand treatment without prerequisites. The ethics are clear, even when the reality feels impossible. This episode is your reminder that you're making the right choice, and that the fight for dignified healthcare is both justified and winnable.

Communion Season "Reassurance and Remembrance" Romans 3:21-26
Preeclampsia is one of those pregnancy complications many women hear about but don't fully understand — and that lack of clarity can make it even scarier.This week I'm joined by Dr. Kelsey Hroch, ND, founder of Northern Wellness Collective in Sault Ste. Marie, where she supports women through fertility, pregnancy, and postpartum with a blend of expertise and compassion. Together, we're unpacking what preeclampsia really is, why it happens, and what women can do to lower their risk and advocate for themselves.Here's what we cover in today's episode: ✨ What preeclampsia is, when it shows up (yes, even postpartum), and how it affects the body ✨ Why it happens and the risk factors involved (spoiler: it's not always about lifestyle) ✨ The role of stress and cardiovascular health during and after pregnancy ✨ Nutrients and dietary strategies that may help with prevention ✨ The long-term health implications of preeclampsia and how to advocate for yourself ✨ Reassurance for any mama-to-be feeling anxious about preeclampsia right nowThis episode is a must-listen if you're currently pregnant, planning for pregnancy, or simply want to feel more informed about this often-misunderstood condition. Knowledge is power, and Dr. Kelsey shares so many insights to help women feel empowered and supported on their journey.
In this episode we open up about the reality of love, marriage, and friendship while raising a newborn and running companies. From the myth of balance to why you should never stop dating your partner, we dive into love languages, conflict, attraction, and the importance of intentional friendships.We get raw about postpartum struggles, resentment, and how the smallest moments can build intimacy. Plus, we explore why dating your friends can be just as important as dating your partner.
When we're feeling insecure in our relationships (especially during transitions like opening up, navigating new relationship dynamics, or major life changes), we often seek reassurance from our partners. But what does effective reassurance actually look like? How can we offer it authentically without trying to "fix" our partners' feelings? And how do we navigate the complex interplay between reassurance, reciprocity, and fairness?Reassurance in relationships isn't a one-size-fits-all solution. It's an ongoing practice that requires attunement, flexibility, and a deep understanding of your partner's unique needs.In this episode, we talk about:— What reassurance really means: actions, words, and engagement that serve to ease someone's doubts and fears (without guaranteeing those fears will disappear)— Why reassurance needs change based on context, trauma history, and how "full" your threat bucket already is— The essential ingredients for effective reassurance— Why the desire to make everything "fair" in relationships often comes from our wounded parts seeking safety and control— How to ask for specific reassurance: "Can you wrap your arms around me right here and tell me these exact words?"— The challenge of offering reassurance when it conflicts with your values or agreements (like canceling dates with others)— Why some people resist offering ongoing reassurance and what that might mean for the relationship— The possibility of reimagining relationship structures when reassurance needs aren't being met— How our "child parts" often drive our reassurance needs, and why acknowledging this can help us make more aligned requests— The difference between true reciprocity and transactional "fairness"Resources mentioned in this episode:— The Imago Dialogue episode— Imago Dialogue examples— Robin Wall Kimmerer's book Braiding SweetgrassJOIN The Year Of Opening® community for a full year of learning & support.

Is Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) the only way to treat OCD? What if there's another evidence-based approach that works differently and might even feel more intuitive to some? In this episode of the OCD Whisperer Podcast, host Kristina Orlova brings together a panel of seasoned OCD clinicians: Mike Heady, Christina Ennabe, Mike Parker, Carl Robbins, and Bronwyn Shroyer. Together, they unpack the essentials of Inference-Based Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (ICBT) and how it compares to ERP. They bust common myths like whether ICBT is just arguing with your thoughts and explain how it helps people move out of imagined fears and back into reality. They also dive into when ERP might still be helpful, how ICBT handles doubt differently, and what the research says about its effectiveness. Whether you're new to ICBT or trying to figure out which approach fits you best, this conversation brings depth, clarity, and a refreshing perspective on OCD treatment. The 4 things you'll learn in today's episode: Why mixing ICBT and ERP can be confusing if you don't fully understand both How ICBT focuses on obsessional doubt rather than just intrusive thoughts What “reality sensing” really means and why it's not the same as doing exposures What the research says about ICBT's effectiveness and how it compares to ERP In This Episode [00:31] Meet the panelists [03:56] Can CBT and IBT/ICT be used together?

The Love, Happiness and Success Podcast With Dr. Lisa Marie Bobby
Have you ever stared at your phone, rereading a text that ended with a period and spiraled into, “Oh no… are they mad at me?” Or maybe someone didn't heart your Instagram story, and suddenly your nervous system is in full red alert mode. If so, you're not alone. And you're definitely not broken. I'm joined by psychotherapist and author Meg Josephson to talk about the fawn response, a lesser-known trauma response that shows up as people-pleasing, overthinking, and needing to manage how others feel about you. We're digging into where this comes from, why it's so common (especially if you grew up walking on eggshells), and how to start untangling yourself from it.

He shares the reaction from people who've watched money for their disabled loved ones vanish.Deadly floods swept through an area of Central Texas known as flash flood alley over the July 4th holiday weekend. Rolling hills, limestone rock formations and winding rivers make the area prone to flash floods during rainstorms.

We ask Florida Public Radio Emergency Network meteorologist Megan Borowski what causes flash floods and what you should do to protect yourself when there's a flood risk.

Many individuals struggling with anxiety often find themselves caught in a relentless cycle of seeking reassurance from various sources, be it their doctors, therapists, friends, or even the depths of the internet. Yet, as I highlight, this quest for comfort seldom provides the long-term peace and clarity that the anxious mind desperately craves.I examine how the cornerstone of anxiety stems from a fundamental fear of uncertainty. As our minds grapple with ambiguous symptoms or overwhelming emotions, we instinctively seek out reassurance, believing it will extinguish our fears. However, this only results in temporary relief, as the nature of anxiety is fluid—once one fear is alleviated, another tends to rise in its place. I emphasize the importance of recognizing this cycle for what it is; an exhausting pursuit that ultimately distracts us from acknowledging the true root of our anxiety.Taking a step towards healing, I advocate for the necessity of ruling out any potential medical issues with the help of health care professionals. This critical first step is essential for peace of mind, enabling individuals to focus on the anxiety itself as the primary concern once physical ailments are addressed. I transparently discuss how the physical manifestations of anxiety are very real but remind listeners that these sensations often originate from a state of heightened stress rather than genuine danger—an important distinction in navigating these turbulent emotions.#AnxietyRelief #MentalHealthMatters #Acceptance #StressManagement #CalmYourMind #AnxietySupport #SelfCare #Mindfulness #HealingJourney #PodcastSummary #AnxietyCoachesPodcast #GinaRyan #NervousSystemRegulation #EmbraceUncertainty #AnxietyHealing #MindBodyConnection #WellnessJourney #EmotionalWellbeing #Resilience #InnerPeace #OvercomeAnxiety #DailyPractice #StressReduction #AnxietyRecovery #HolisticHealth #TherapeuticJournaling #MeditationForAnxiety #AffirmationsForAnxiety #FightOrFlight #AnxietyAwareness #MentalWellness #SelfAcceptance #CopingSkills #EmotionalBalance #HealthyMindset #NoMoreWorry #FearlessLiving #AnxietySolutions #PersonalGrowth #LiveCalm #BeWell #DrGaborMate #AnxietyCure (not a cure, but a journey) #MentalFitness #EmotionalFreedom #BeyondReassurance #GinaRyan #ACP #AnxietyCoachesPodcastSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Exams can turn even the calmest household into a battleground of stress, stubbornness, and last-minute panic. If helping your child revise makes you want to hide in the garden shed, this episode is for you. Gurpreet Kaur, founder of GC Tutors and a qualified teacher with a heart for building kids' confidence, joins Heather, Lyn and Kelly-Jace to unpack what really works when exams are looming. She shares down-to-earth advice for parents whose children struggle with low marks, anxiety or special educational needs. You'll hear when it's worth bringing in a tutor (and how early support can make a huge difference), why modern maths methods often baffle grown-ups, and how an outside expert can get through to kids who won't listen to mum or dad. Gurpreet talks candidly about the signs of test anxiety, how to spot it at home or in the classroom, and simple ways to calm nerves so your child can show what they know. She also lifts the lid on Ofsted ratings, whether parents should trust them blindly, and how to weigh up local schools beyond the inspection labels. For a fresh twist, the conversation touches on whether tools like ChatGPT help or hinder children's learning and how older students are using AI creatively for revision. Full of relatable moments and gentle encouragement, this episode is a pep talk for parents and a reminder that no child should face exam stress alone. Grab your headphones, breathe out, and find out how to bring calm back to study time for your kids and for you. Highlights When to consider getting a tutor and how it can fill gaps before they grow How changing teaching methods confuse parents and make homework battles worse Practical ways to tell if low scores are due to anxiety, not ability Calming strategies for different personality types, from energetic kids to quiet worriers Gurpreet's honest view on Ofsted reports and how much weight to give them The surprising ways older kids use AI for revision and why it's not always a magic fix How tutoring helps children with special educational needs thrive with personalised support Reassurance for parents: you don't have to be a perfect teacher to help your child succeed

Support Warfare Prayers Here TranscriptThank you for listening to Daily Warfare Prayers, a podcast created to empower your mind, soul and spirit through daily scripture, devotion and prayer so that you can walk in victory today. Today's devotion in prayer is centered on this topic that everything in your life is going to be okay. How can I say that confidently? Because the Word of God declares this in second Corinthians chapter one, verse ten. We've been discussing how to get through trials, how to overcome trials and suffering. And in our first lesson, we went over that God permit trials and suffering in your life. That simply means that God allowed these things to happen. Now why would God allow them to happen? The Bible says so that you can comfort others. God will comfort you in the midst of trials so that you may know how to comfort others. And in our last episode, we talked about that God not only permit trials to happen in your life, but he also empowers us to bear trials. God will bring us to the end of ourselves so that we can bear trials..............
