In this powerful episode, David Maxwell of Thriving Man tackles a struggle many of us face: releasing the need for approval and letting go of what others think.Introduction: The Trap of Seeking ApprovalDavid opens with a relatable illustration: trying to impress a professional drummer while playing in a band, highlighting how easy it is to get caught in the trap of focusing on what others think. This desire for external validation can prevent us from truly living as the men we were designed to be. This episode, part of the Insecurity Series, is all about helping you live a thriving life.The Historical Struggle with External OpinionThe struggle with what others think is not new. From fashion choices to relationship decisions (like picking a partner for appearance rather than connection), we often let external perceptions dictate our lives. David clarifies that it's not about never caring what people think, but about releasing the need for approval. When you live for others' approval, you lose control of your own life.Two Keys to Releasing the Need for Approval1. Build a Healthy DetachmentHealthy detachment is not coldness or indifference. Instead, it's a mature and balanced way of relating to the world. It allows you to:Focus on your individual well-being while engaging in respectful interactions.Navigate complex relationships without losing yourself.Practice compassion without enmeshment and engagement without undue emotional burden.Live authentically, without playing a part or acting out a character.Cultivate empathy and build healthy connections, avoiding the people-pleasing trap.Healthy detachment requires truth:Be honest about your own strengths and weaknesses.Be truthful in your dealings with others, speaking honestly about your actions.Jesus is presented as an example: loving and empathetic, yet speaking uncomfortable truths and not letting others control him.2. Learn to Release ControlYou cannot control what others think of you, so stop trying. This doesn't mean you don't care, but it means their opinions can't control you. David illustrates this with examples like wearing uncomfortable fashion trends or putting on an "I don't care mask" – both are attempts to control perception. The key is to simply be you.Trying to control others' opinions often stems from our own insecurity. As you become more secure in who you are, acknowledging both your strengths and weaknesses, you'll develop a peace that permeates all areas of your life. While protecting your name and integrity is important, you ultimately cannot control what happens in other people's minds.Your Call to ActionStart by focusing on building your healthy detachment:Individual well-being: How are you growing as a man? Explore resources at Thrivingman.com.Respectful interactions: Are you cultivating strong friendships and relationships?By taking these steps to release the need for approval, you will unlock a whole new aspect of your life and truly begin to thrive.
In this insightful episode of the Leadership Sandbox, Tammy J. Bond explores the evolving generational landscape in today's workplaces. She delves into the communication challenges between Boomers, Gen Xers, Millennials, and Gen Z, and emphasizes the importance of understanding diverse communication styles. Tammy underscores the need for leaders to foster inclusive environments where all voices are valued, highlighting strategies to bridge generational divides, enhance collaboration, and address the silence that can impede innovation. Whether you're a leader or team member, learn how effective listening, feedback, and cultural modeling can transform team dynamics. KEY TAKEAWAYS Millennials and Gen Z are not fragile—they're frustrated by communication gaps. A generational translation gap makes understanding each other's perspectives essential. Leaders need to listen differently to retain and engage talent. Silencing younger team members leads to disengagement and missed opportunities. Respectful communication involves challenging assumptions with care. Most conflicts stem from miscommunication rather than personality clashes. Building a translation bridge enhances team cohesion and productivity. Feedback should be a two-way process—encouraging open dialogue. Timing and tone are critical components of effective communication. Organizational culture is shaped by leadership's actions and modeling, not just words. Tune in for actionable insights to elevate your leadership and improve team dynamics across generations!

Found a reminder for all of us - comes from Greg Berge (@gb1121) where he shares this with everyone: “You are who you hang with. Surround yourself with the following people… - They are happy for your success - Driven and goal oriented - They make you better - Positive energy givers - Respectful of others - Resilient mindset - Kind hearted - 100% ers. You owe it to yourself.” Of course I know this is what we all should strive to be for others too. I think it's a great reminder in what to look for around us in others and for the person in the mirror staring back at us. We have so many examples of WHAT NOT TO BE in today's world - here is a great reminder on a few things we need to put out there in the world, a bit more often. Thanks for listening.

Vengeance is such a core human urge that there are hundreds and thousands of parables and plays and stories warning us about what a dangerous path it is. In the classic Shakespearean tragedy, Hamlet destroyed himself and the entire Danish royal family in the name of revenge. Francis Bacon wrote “A man that studieth revenge keeps his own wounds green.” Today's story is a good reminder that if you seek revenge, you should dig two graves.

Our relationship with our Creator, Savior, and Sustainer is also one with our dad, our father. As we saw last time there is a natural respect we have for our earthly fathers, which translates to our Father in heaven. We add to that the fact He is King. Iconic photos exist of President Kennedy at the resolute desk in the white house with his small children playing in and around the president at work. Iconic photos of the president surrounded by his general staff during the Cuban Missile Crisis also exist.The contrast illustrates our conversations with our Savior, who is:"Just as a father has compassion on his children, So the LORD has compassion on those who fear Him. 14 For He Himself knows our frame; He is mindful that we are but dust."Psalm 103:13-14And also:'Our Father who art in heaven, Hallowed be Thy name. 10 'Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done, On earth as it is in heaven.Matthew 6:9-10With 1 Chronicles 16:29 and Psalm 27:8 in mind, ourDevotional Meditation is:We are not forcing a formality in our conversation with God. Yet, He is the king of kings and the Lord of Lords. And he's our merciful Father, so it's only natural to engage our Father, the king. And remember, whatever the circumstance, we are not talking to him like we talk to our peers.Brethren, let's pray for one another."What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."

I realize when we have episodes like our last one on Job being humbled by God, and I stress the need to come to Him in humility (I realize it because I have been asked) that I assert over and over that prayer is talking to God., so why stress our humble demeanor in prayer?Today, I use my loving, gentle, earthly dad as an example. As a great and open relationship we had, I did not talk to my dad like I talked to my peers. Not at all!So as we consider our earthy respect, and our close as it is relationship with our Holy Father:"Now the main point in what has been said is this: we have such a high priest, who has taken His seat at the right hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens, 2 a minister in the sanctuary, and in the true tabernacle, which the Lord pitched, not man."Hebrews 8:1-2"Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe; 29 for our God is a consuming fire."Hebrews 12:28-29Our Devotional Meditation:Must be, Establish Thy word to Thy servant, As that which produces reverence for Thee."Psalm 119:38Approaching our Creator, Savior, and Sustainer with humble respect.

For people of faith, a minister is supposed to be a figure of trust, a rock to support you in times of trouble. Not everyone who holds that position meets those ideals, though. This week's story is about a man whose minister's robes and carefully practiced smiles hid a heart burning with violence and dark desires, someone who would betray every trust given to him and leave pain—not salvation—in his wake.

When your child responds with disrespectful words or a challenging tone, remember what you're ultimately working toward—raising future adults who can communicate effectively in various relationships and settings. In the professional world, speaking disrespectfully to colleagues, supervisors, or clients has real consequences. The same applies to personal relationships, where mutual respect forms the foundation of healthy connections. By addressing backtalk now, you're teaching essential social skills that will serve your child throughout life. This doesn't mean silencing your child's voice or discouraging them from expressing disagreement. Instead, it's about guiding them toward expressing their thoughts and feelings in ways that others can hear and respect. The goal is to help them understand the difference between healthy assertiveness and disrespectful communication.

Between 2010 and 2022 (the latest year for which data are available), 194,375 New Yorkers were diagnosed with hepatitis C (HCV) and of those, 53% (103,213 individuals) are known to have cleared their infection either through treatment or spontaneously. This statistic is worth celebrating, but also highlights the ongoing need for action – the goal outlined in New York State's Hepatitis C Elimination Plan is to reach 80% by 2030. Furthermore, people who inject drugs are disproportionally affected by HCV – in 2022, 48% of newly reported cases of acute HCV in New York indicated injection drug use as a risk factor. And, when analyzing cases with known risk factors, that figure rose to 81% of newly reported acute cases indicating injection drug use. Providing HCV treatment in opioid treatment program (OTP)s is an innovative and necessary strategy to curb the ongoing epidemic and achieve statewide goals for elimination. This episode features Abigail Hunter, MPH, MSN, FNP-BC, sharing her experience providing HCV treatment at an OTP and recommendations for listeners interested in integrating treatment into clinical services.

Our brains hold our relational history—all the joys, all the ruptures, all the repairs. And even in the most difficult childhood or parenting circumstances, the science of relationships and connection can give us hope for whole-brain and whole-life transformation.Therapist, bestselling author, and mom—Dr. Tina Payne Bryson is seeking a connection revolution that brings neurobiology and practical relational wisdom to bear on both how we were parented, how we parent, and how we relate throughout our lifespan.In this conversation with Tina Bryson, we discuss:The science of childhood relational development and growth into strong, adaptive adultsThe brain as our most social organ—capable of holding a lifetime of relational and emotional historyHow to emotionally co-regulate with another person to achieve a calm, peaceful, and vibrant relationshipNeuroplasticity and our ability to change with intention toward our deepest held valuesAnd we explore how the science of connection, attachment, and interpersonal neurobiology sheds light on how we were parented, and impacts how we might parent ourselves and how we relate to everyone.Books by Dr. Tina BrysonThe Way of Play (Tina's latest book!)The Whole-Brain ChildNo-Drama DisciplineThe Yes BrainThe Power of Showing UpFollow Tina BrysonTinaBryson.com Instagram X The Center for ConnectionShow NotesDr. Tina Bryson: an expert in neurobiology, parenting, child development, and attachment theory.Highlighting Tina's unique perspective as both a clinician and science-engaged researcher.This conversation focuses on parenting, but it's relevant for everyone—whether you're a leader, mentor, or someone reflecting on your own upbringingThe importance of connection, attunement, and emotional regulation in today's world."I feel so aware that this is not an easy time to be a child or a teenager in the world."Kids today face unique challenges that are very different from previous generations:More stimulation, information, and pressure than ever before.Earlier onset of puberty and adolescence, with young adults taking longer to launch."We often talk about the challenges of youth, which are absolutely real, but we don't want to forget that in many ways, the world is actually safer."Positive shifts in youth well-being: fewer teen pregnancies; safer environments (cars, car seats, public spaces)l greater awareness of mental health, substance use, and emotional well-beingWhat Do You Say?: How to Talk with Kids to Build Motivation, Stress Tolerance, and a Happy Home, by William Stixrud and Ned JohnsonThe brain is a social organ—we are profoundly shaped by the people around us."A huge contributor to some of the struggles youth are having is because their grownups are not thriving."Interpersonal neurobiology teaches that children's well-being is tied to their caregivers' ability to regulate their own emotions.Takeaway: Parents who are anxious, reactive, or dysregulated create environments where their children struggle to regulate their emotions."The greatest gift we can give each other is a calm presence."“History is not destiny.”Emotional offloading or outsourcingSafe haven or safe harbor: cozy, safe, calm“My mom will never listen.”Understanding teenagers“Please don't chase your child and force connection.”Non-eye contact feels less intrusive and they'll open up moreUnderstanding Attachment & The Four S's: Safe, Seen, Soothed, SecureSecure attachment is a key predictor of well-being in children and adults.Attachment is built through repeated experiences of the Four S's:Safe: "Do I feel physically and emotionally secure with this person?"Seen: "Does this person understand and acknowledge my emotions and experiences?"Soothed: "When I'm in distress, does this person help me feel better?"Secure: "Do I trust that this person will be there for me consistently?"Set an intention: "When my child walks through the door, I want them to feel at rest, safe, and accepted."Practical Parenting Tip: If your child pushes you away, don't force connection. Instead, say: "I can see you need some space right now. I'm here whenever you're ready to talk."Managing Teen Independence: When teens ask for space, don't take it personally. Instead, try: "I'm here if you want to talk later.""Would you be open to a short walk or helping me in the kitchen?"The basics of attachment theory: John Bowlby and Mary AinsworthMama BearsNot just brain, but whole nervous systemSecure Relating: Holding Your Own in an Insecure World, by Sue Marriot and Ann Kelley"Without awareness, we don't have choice."—Dan SiegelHistory is not destiny. We can rewire our brains and create new, healthier patterns in relationships.The availability of your presence creates a secure environmentRegulation & Emotional ResilienceDefinition of Regulation: The ability to monitor and modify emotional states rather than reacting impulsively.It's NOT about being emotionless—it's about responding intentionally”When we mess up, the research shows that as long as we make the repair, the rupture itself was actually beneficial.”Tina Bryson's Fragility Formula: Adversity minus support or plus too much support = fragility. Adversity plus the right amount of support = resilience.Real-Life Example: The Yahtzee IncidentTina shares a personal story of losing her temper while playing Yahtzee with her kids.She repaired the rupture by apologizing, taking responsibility, and asking for a do-over.Pink Flags vs. Red FlagsPink Flags: Subtle signs that you're getting dysregulated (irritability, sarcasm, tension)Red Flags: Full-blown loss of control (yelling, throwing things, shutting down)The Three R's of Parenting: Regulation, Responding, RepairingThe Window of ToleranceGentle Parenting vs Responsive, Respectful, Regulated, Intentional parentingRegulation: Managing your emotions firstResponding: Engaging with your child in a safe, attuned wayRepairing: Acknowledging when you mess up and making amendsReduce pressure—kids should not feel they must "perform" to be loved.The Power of Breathwork: The Physiological SighQuick, evidence-based technique to reduce stress and reset the nervous system.Take a double inhale through the nose, followed by a longer exhale."It's the quickest thing we know to calm the nervous system."Non-eye-contact conversations (e.g., driving in the car) help teens feel less pressured.The science of thriving vs. surviving: "Survive and thrive are not separate categories. What we do in survival moments can lead to thriving."The River of Well-Being: A Person is Like a Boat on a RiverThe FACES Model for Well-Being (essentially a definition of thriving)Flexible: Open to change and new ideasAdaptive: Able to adjust based on new circumstancesCoherent: Emotional and cognitive stabilityEnergized: Engaged and present in lifeStable: Grounded and consistentFamily Dinner Time: Keeping it light, being more presentPractical Exercise to Regulate Emotions: The Deep Physiological SighTurn down the reactivity of your nervous system“The key is: Make your exhale longer than your inhale.”“At his worst is when he needs you the most.”Pre-frontal cortex development: Not mature until late-20s.“The prefrontal cortex is changeable throughout the lifespan.”The Yes Brain: How to Cultivate Courage, Curiosity, and Resilience in Your Child, Dan Siegel and Tina Payne BrysonThe YES Brain Approach: Four pillars that cultivate resilience in children BRIE (like the cheese)Balance (emotional regulation)Resilience (bouncing back from challenges)Insight (self-awareness and growth mindset)Empathy (understanding others' experiences)"Thriving isn't about avoiding hardships—it's about learning how to navigate them."Recognize your influence: "Your child's nervous system mirrors yours. Take care of yourself first."Discipline and moralityHarsh, punitive discipline doesn't change behavior or develop a moral compass. It teaches them to hide the behavior.Healthy Guilt vs Toxic Shame“The way we don't get kicked out of our group is our conscience.”Guilt “is one of your superpowers.”“No one can lose each other's love.”Give yourself permission to wait and not respond in the moment.“My number one job is to keep you safe.”No lecturing. “What do you think I would say here?” “What's your plan to keep yourself safe?”Tina Bryson on Faith and SpiritualityHealthy spirituality leads to feeling safe, seen, soothed, and secure.The power of narrative and journaling: Making sense of our lives and integrating our brains*Parenting from the Inside Out,* Dan Siegel and Mary Hartzell*The Power of Showing Up,* Dan Siegel and Tina BrysonPractical Exercise: Acknowledging, Noticing, and Accepting“Negative emotions does not mean something's wrong.”“Emotions are important information, but they don't make the final decision.”Are your emotions making the decision?Curiosity in order to bring softness and nurture.Practice daily regulation: Set a personal cue (e.g., getting in the car) to check in with your emotions.Embrace repair: "Making mistakes in parenting is inevitable—what matters is how you repair them."Parenting is about progress, not perfection. "Every small shift you make has a ripple effect on your child's well-being."Pam King's Key TakeawaysWe're inherently wired for connection, and our brains store all of our relational history.Rupture is inevitable, but our capacity for repair can strengthen our bonds with each other when we make the effort to reconnect.Thriving involves and integrates all our most intense emotions. We get closer to thriving when we can learn to regulate and integrate our inner emotional experience.Attuning and paying attention to our nervous system is a core emotional and relational skill—and goes a long way in healthy, intimate relationships.We were all children once. We were all parented, for better or for worse. Learning to integrate every aspect of our relational history can keep us on the path to thriving.About Tina BrysonDr. Tina Bryson is an expert in applying interpersonal neurobiology and neuropsychology to maybe the most central part of human life: our closest, most intimate relationships.

In this episode of the Pooch Parenting Podcast, we're diving into a topic that many parents face: what to do when your toddler or young child is too rough with the family dog.Maybe you've caught your little one pulling the dog's tail, giving overly enthusiastic hugs, or even climbing on them like they're a jungle gym. You love both your child and your dog, but you're worried about how these interactions might affect their safety and their bond.The good news is, rough behavior is a common phase in childhood, and with the right strategies, you can help your child learn to interact with your dog in a gentle, safe, and positive way. In this episode, we'll explore why this happens, how to set your child and dog up for success, and what to do when things get a little too rough.So, whether you're feeling overwhelmed or just looking for tips to make life smoother for your family, you're in the right place.Why Rough Behavior HappensCuriosity and lack of impulse control are normal developmental behaviors in toddlers and young childrenKids and parents can misunderstand dog body language and can think this type of behavior is acceptable.Examples of typical rough behaviors: pulling tails, climbing on the dog, hugging too tightly, etc.Why Rough Handling of Dogs Is a ProblemPotential risks: stress for the dog, fear, growling, or even biting.Rough handling can damage the child-dog bond over time.Many parents (and kids, of course) miss common dog stress signals (ie, lip licking, yawning, avoiding the child).Setting Toddlers and Young Kids Up for Success Around DogsSupervision: Always be paying attention when dogs and kids are in the same space and when they are interacting with each other. Separation: Use barriers like baby gates or playpens when supervision isn't possible.Safe Spaces: Teach children that the dog's bed or crate is off-limits. If the dog is on the sofa or resting anywhere, they should be left alone, as if surrounded by hot lava.Teaching Toddlers and Young Kids to be Gentle with DogsAge-appropriate ways to teach children how to interact with dogs gently. Modeling soft petting.Using stuffed animals to practice gentle touch.Role-playing with the child.Read some of my favorite books with your toddlers, including: Tails are Not for Pulling, Hands are Not for Hitting and Love Me Gently.Clear and consistent rules (e.g., no hugging or climbing on the dog).Managing Expectations for ParentsSetting realistic boundaries for what the dog can tolerate based on its temperament and age.Avoid placing the dog in situations where rough handling might happen.Strengthening the Child-Dog BondActivities where kids can positively engage with the dog under supervision (e.g., training tricks, feeding, or tossing a toy).Reinforcing good beThank you for listening!

Together, they discuss the importance of supporting normal physiology in birth, the guiding principles of the midwifery model, and the need for systemic change to foster respectful care in hospitals. Dr. Brumley also shares insights from her work with the Florida Perinatal Quality Collaborative, including initiatives to reduce unnecessary interventions and amplify patient voices. Tune in to learn how respectful care can improve outcomes, build trust, and why a “midwife for every community” could change the landscape of maternal health in the United States.

I've made it a personal rule, when I'm offended, to chalk it up to people's inability to communicate effectively. It's proven to be useful and, typically, correct. But how can the activity we engage in more than anything else (with the exception of sleep) be something so many men are horribly deficient with? That's a question my guest, Jefferson Fisher, has spend decades understanding and, over the last several years, teaching over 10,000,000 of his social media followers how to address. Today Jefferson and I talk about avoiding miscommunication, how to be assertive in communication – but not an asshole, when diplomacy and advocacy connect and contradict, why learning not to, “take the bait” of others will serve you, learning the rules of the communication game, and why control, confidence, and connection will set you apart.
