My guest today is education leader and author Chris Balme, here to talk about his brand-new book Challenge Accepted: 50 Adventures to Make Middle School Awesome. In it, Chris gives middle schoolers themselves the tools to turn the ups and downs of adolescence into an adventure filled with meaning, growth, and connection. In our conversation, Chris shares why adventure and healthy risk-taking are so powerful during the middle school years, how parents can support their kids' self-efficacy and independence, and what this can look like for neurodivergent learners. We also talk about the parallel journeys parents and kids go through during this stage, and how leaning into growth together can make middle school not just manageable, but truly awesome.   About Chris Balme Chris Balme is an education leader, writer, and speaker. He's endlessly curious about how we can raise wise, loving, and capable adolescents. Chris has co-founded and led two innovative schools, written a best-selling book called Finding the Magic in Middle School, and regularly speaks to and trains teachers and parents around the world. His new book, Challenge Accepted: 50 Adventures to Make Middle School Awesome, gives the keys to middle schoolers themselves, to turn the wild ride of adolescence into an adventure full of meaning and connection. Chris currently serves as Co-Principal of Hakuba International School, and as director of Argonaut, an online advisory program for middle schoolers from around the world. He lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with his wife and three children. Things you'll learn from this episode   How middle schoolers are far more capable than they're often given credit for Why choice, authorship, and experiential learning are critical for building self-efficacy in adolescents How shifting from being the “boss” to being a guide helps parents support their child's growth Why healthy risks and self-directed challenges are especially important for neurodivergent kids How parents can act as mirrors for their children's experiences while growing themselves in the process Why creating supportive environments and offering practical adventures, like those in Challenge Accepted, helps middle schoolers thrive Resources mentioned Chris Balme's website Challenge Accepted: 50 Adventures to Make Middle School Awesome by Chris Balme Finding the Magic in Middle School: Tapping Into the Power and Potential of the Middle School Years by Chris Balme Chris's Substack Chris on Instagram The Self-Driven Child: The Science and Sense of Giving Your Kids More Control Over Their Lives by Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson Learn more about your ad choices.

I'm so anxious and don't know how to face my boss's evaluation."Zh: “有时，我们太过专注于与他人竞争，反而忽略了自己真正的强项。”美的语气沉稳中透出一丝智慧。En: "Sometimes, we focus too much on competing with others and overlook our true strengths," Mei spoke with a tone that was steady yet brimming with wisdom.Zh: “诚实地展现自己，比模仿他人要有力得多。”En: "Honestly expressing yourself is far more powerful than imitating others."Zh: 在柔和的灯光下，魏捧着温暖的茶杯，慢慢地品味着这番话。En: Under the soft light, Wei held the warm teacup, slowly savoring these words.Zh: 突然之间，他明白了继续让自己不安的是竞争，而不是他的能力。En: Suddenly, he realized it was the competition, not his abilities, that continued to unsettle him.Zh: 吐出长长的一口气，魏决定在评估中不去顾虑亮，也不去模仿他人，而是专注于自己的成长和优点。En: Releasing a long sigh, he decided that during the evaluation, he would not worry about Liang nor imitate others but would concentrate on his own growth and strengths.Zh: 几天后的评估会上，魏不再拘泥于浮夸的表现，而是真诚地分享了自己对团队发展的想法。En: At the evaluation meeting a few days later, Wei no longer confined himself to exaggerated displays but instead sincerely shared his ideas for team development.Zh: 他的老板看到他这样的真诚和清晰，微微点头，露出满意的微笑。En: His boss saw his sincerity and clarity, nodding slightly with a satisfied smile.Zh: 评估结束后，魏极有信心地走出了会议室，心中一片坦然。En: After the evaluation ended, Wei walked out of the conference room with great confidence, feeling at peace within.Zh: 当老板宣布他获得晋升时，他意识到自己所展现的不只是工作上的成就，还有真实的自己。En: When his boss announced that he had received the promotion, he realized he was showcasing not just his work achievements, but his true self.Zh: 从那一天起，魏懂得了，不必与人攀比，也不需给自己施加压力。En: From that day on, Wei understood that he did not need to compare himself with others or place undue pressure on himself.Zh: 真实的自己，才是最有力的竞争力。En: The real self is the most powerful competitiveness.Zh: 茶店外的秋风依旧轻轻拂过，而美的茶香仍然如故，安宁地弥漫着。En: The autumn breeze outside the tea shop still gently swept by, and Mei's tea fragrance remained the same, peacefully lingering.

QUOTES FOR REFLECTION The madman jumped into their midst and pierced them with his eyes.“Whither is God?” he cried; “I will tell you.We have killed him—you and I. All of us are his murderers.But how did we do this? How could we drink up the sea?Who gave us the sponge to wipe away the entire horizon?What were we doing when we unchained this earth from its sun?Whither is it moving now? Whither are we moving? Away from all suns?Are we not plunging continually?Backward, sideward, forward, in all directions? Is there still any up or down?Are we not straying, as through an infinite nothing? Do we not feel the breath of empty space?Has it not become colder? Is not night continually closing in on us?”~“The Parable of the Madman” by Friedrich Nietzsche (1844-1900) “How much larger your life would be, if your self could become smaller in it.”~G.K. Chesterton (1874-1936), author and literary critic in Orthodoxy “For even creation reveals Him who formed it, and the very work made suggests Him who made it, and the world manifests Him who ordered it.”~Irenaeus (c.125-c.202), early church leader, in Against Heresies (II.9.1) “Beauty is truth, truth beauty,—that is allYe know on earth, and all ye need to know.” “A thing of beauty is a joy forever:Its loveliness increases; it will neverPass into nothingness; but still will keepA bower quiet for us, and a sleep…An endless fountain of immortal drink,Pouring unto us from the heaven's brink.”~John Keats (1795-1821) from “Ode to a Grecian Urn” and Endymion “Because the face of God is so lovely, my brothers and sisters, so beautiful, once you have seen it, nothing else can give you pleasure. It will give insatiable satisfaction of which we will never tire. We shall always be hungry and always have our fill.”~Augustine (354-430 A.D.), North African church leader and theologian “Glory is the beauty of God unveiled! Glory is the resplendent radiance of His power and His personality…. Glory is the external elegance of the internal excellencies of God. Glory is what you see and experience and feel when God goes public with His beauty!”~C. Samuel Storms (1951-present), theologian and authorSERMON PASSAGEPsalm 191 The heavens declare the glory of God, and the sky above proclaims his handiwork.2 Day to day pours out speech, and night to night reveals knowledge. Isaiah 6 1 In the year that King Uzziah died I saw the Lord sitting upon a throne, high and lifted up; and the train of his robe filled the temple. 2 Above him stood the seraphim. Each had six wings: with two he covered his face, and with two he covered his feet, and with two he flew. 3 And one called to another and said:“Holy, holy, holy is the Lord of hosts;the whole earth is full of his glory!” John 1 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God…. 14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. John 12 41 Isaiah said these things because he saw [Jesus's] glory and spoke of him. 42 Nevertheless, many even of the authorities believed in him, but for fear of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue; 43 for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God. John 17 5 And now, Father, glorify me in your own presence with the glory that I had with you before the world existed….24 Father, I desire that they also, whom you have given me, may be with me where I am, to see my glory that you have given me because you loved me before the foundation of the world.Leviticus 10 1 Now Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it and laid incense on it and offered unauthorized fire before the Lord, which he had not commanded them. 2 And fire came out from before the Lord and consumed them, and they died before the Lord. 3 Then Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord has said: ‘Among those who are near me I will be sanctified, and before all the people I will be glorified.'” And Aaron held his peace. 1 Corinthians 3 16 Do you not know that you are God's temple and that God's Spirit dwells in you? 17 If anyone destroys God's temple, God will destroy him. For God's temple is holy, and you are that temple. Romans 118 For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. 19 For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. 20 For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. 21 For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. 22 Claiming to be wise, they became fools, 23 and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.

Send us a textWe are going back to our roots with these Throwback Episodes. One of the hosts comes with a topic, and the other two have no idea what it is. We hope you enjoy it!In this week's episode we discussed what it means to live in the moment. That could mean appreciating a favorite song, a perfect cup of coffee, a fleeting moment, or even a relationship before it changes or is gone. Each of us has lived through different times and different experiences, so I want to hear from you. What comes to mind when you think of something worth savoring?Our Links:Retrospect

Scripture Reading: Revelation 4:1-11 In Revelation 4, the entire focus of the book changes … from the churches that existed during John's day, to the events which will take place in the future, indeed, at the end of human history.  Before John writes about what will take place at the end of time, he describes for us the glory of God in heaven, as he saw the throne of the Almighty in his vision.  Revelation 4 describes the glory of God the Father and chapter 5 describes the glory of God the Son. What is revealed in Revelation 4 is the worship that is going on in heaven … performed by angels and saints in heaven.  They declare the wonders of God in specific statements and with profound humility and great passion. We learn something of the importance of worship from this passage.  God is central in heaven in a way that He is not central in the events of earthly life and human history.  A brief definition of worship might be "savoring the supremacy of God."  To consider who God is, is to come to the conclusion that He is supreme in all the universe, in every way.  His power is supreme, His majesty indescribable, His goodness unimpeachable, His mercy everlasting, His wisdom unsearchable, His truth pure and reliable, His sovereignty mysterious and all-encompassing.  Savoring all that God is … reveling in Him, enjoying Him, taking pleasure in Him, prizing Him … is worship.  Worship is something of an abbreviation of an old English word 'worthship.'  To ascribe to God His worth is worship.  Worship is not just the act of singing a song on Sunday morning or praying before you go to sleep at night.  It is exulting in God, deep in our hearts, because of His value … worth … infinite worth.

1 John 4:7-12

Do you ever feel like the good moments fly by while the hard ones drag on?This episode is all about slowing down to make the most out of the good moments in life through a practice called Savoring. This is a powerful (and surprisingly simple) tool from positive psychology that helps you slow down and fully experience the joy that's already in your life.Studies have shown that the practice of savoring can boost your mood, increase positive emotions, and decrease anxiety and depression.

If you've been feeling stuck lately or every conversation or thing around you just feels hard, we're going to talk about it today.

In John 15, Jesus tells us that if we hope to have lives of fruitfulness and joy, we must abide in Him. We must remain intimately connected with Him at the soul level. The stronger the connection, the better the fruit and the greater the joy. In this series, we're exploring ways to build a strong connection with Jesus. The analogy of a grapevine helps us identify some of those practices. Today, we are considering the importance of nutrition.  Just as a grapevine needs good soil from which to draw nutrients in order to produce an abundant harvest, so we need to put our roots down deep into the soil of God's Word.Psalm 1 paints a picture of a tree planted by streams of water that bears abundant fruit. Then the psalmist draws the parallel for us.  We, too, will bear good fruit if we are well-nourished. And that nourishing is found by meditating on the law of the Lord – that is, the Word of God.What does it mean to “meditate” on God's Word? The Hebrew word used in the Old Testament for meditate is the word “hagah.” Literally, it means “to growl.” The picture is that of an animal gnawing on a bone. Chewing on it. Savoring it. Digesting it. This is what we're to do with Scriptures. Take it in. Chew on it. Make it part of you.How might that happen?  How might we move from merely reading the Word to truly eating up and digesting the Word?Here are a series of questions that might get you moving in that direction.  Call them “Meditation Questions.”  As you read the Bible, ask yourself these questions. You may want to get a notebook and write down your answers.What got my attention? What stood out to you? What did I learn about God? It may be something new, or it may be something old that strikes you in a fresh way.What did I learn about myself? This takes it from the theoretical to the personal.What am I going to do about it?  It's not enough to just “hear the Word.” We must be “doers” as well. What is a practical, tangible step you can take to make this Word part of your life?  Text: John 15:1-11Originally recorded on July 23, 2017, at Fellowship Missionary Church, Fort Wayne, IN

EPISODE 221 Summer carries a certain magic. The days stretch long and golden, the evenings hum with warmth and nature bursts into fullness. It's a season that invites you to pause, breathe and savor. Yet, how often do you let it pass by in a blur of plans, busyness, or distractions? This summer, what if you chose to slow down, just enough to fully experience the joy that's right in front of you? What can summer teach you? How can you let your intuition lead you this summer? Embracing the summer season will allow you to create a positive impact in your life.

We continue our Savor: A Season of Joy and Presence series with the title episode. Today we are diving into what it means to truly live fully awake to the beauty and goodness of your actual life. And let's be honest: that's harder than it sounds. In today's episode, we're getting real about some of the reasons we resist savoring like our tendency to rush (and why!), our fear of stillness, and our belief in the lie that productivity is more important than presence. Joy isn't a risk or something to be hurried through. It's time to slow down and truly notice the good. To appreciate it. Savoring is what allows us to fully engage with and enjoy our moments and might just be the most life-giving habit we've forgotten how to keep. This is a conversation about presence. About practice. About choosing to taste and see the good—not someday, but now.

Welcome to the Heal and Restore Podcast with Randy and Cathy Boyd—where we dive into real conversations that help you heal, grow, and strengthen your relationships.In today's refreshing and intentional episode, we're talking about “Savoring the Last Days of Summer”—and what that means for your relationship.As the long days begin to shorten and the busyness of fall draws near, it's easy to miss the moments right in front of us. Many couples find themselves going through the motions—feeling more like roommates than partners, letting meaningful conversations fade, or sensing a quiet drift growing between them.But this season invites us to pause. To slow down. To be present—not just with the fading summer sunsets, but with each other.We'll explore some of the subtle signs that your relationship might be stuck in autopilot and how to recognize when emotional distance is setting in. We'll also unpack the deeper reasons behind this disconnection—like unspoken expectations, past hurts, and life's endless distractions.More importantly, we'll offer simple, faith-rooted ways to reclaim closeness and savor what matters most: connection, conversation, and intentional time together. From creating shared rituals to learning each other's emotional language again, this episode is about making the most of the moments you still have—and building habits that will carry you into the next season stronger.If you've felt the space growing between you or just want to slow down and reconnect, this episode is for you.If it resonates, we invite you to subscribe, leave a review, and share it with someone who needs hope and encouragement in their relationship.The season may be changing—but it's not too late to turn toward each other again.Let's savor this season—and grow forward, together.BOOK RELEASE:Order Your Copy of Our Book - Renewing Bonds: Seven Steps to Restoring Your Relationship by clicking the link below:⁠⁠https://www.amazon.com/dp/0986398799⁠⁠ How to Heal and Restore Your Marriage is now available on Audible. FOLLOW US ON: Facebook: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/heala...⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://instagram.com/healandr...⁠⁠⁠⁠VISIT US AT:www.healandrestorecounseling.com

In this final episode of the Sabbath Summer series, Dr. Dan Allender and Rachael Clinton Chen guide us into the often-overlooked final movement of Sabbath: reflection. We began with anticipation—the courageous act of imagining rest. Then moved into participation—embracing play even in the midst of reality's messiness. And now, we arrive at reflection—savoring what has been. But reflection doesn't always come easily. In a culture that pushes us toward constant motion, pausing to ponder our day, our summer, or even a moment of joy can feel… unnatural. Or even risky. As Rachael shares, sometimes the goodness we taste is hard to hold. It intensifies longing. It reminds us of what's still broken. And yet—it strengthens hope. Dan offers a glimpse into his own end-of-day rhythm with Becky. He reminds us that reflection is not about correction, but recollection—a gathering of the day's moments to see what God is forming in us. This episode is an invitation to slow down, to savor, and to see: -What has this summer meant for you so far? -What might God be showing you through it? -And how might reflection become not just a one-time practice, but a way of holding eternity—right here, in the ordinary? Thank you for joining us for this three-part Sabbath Summer series. We're grateful you chose to pause, reflect, and journey with us through anticipation, participation, and reflection. Our hope is that these conversations invited you into deeper rest—not just in your schedule, but in your spirit. May you carry what you've imagined, created, and savored into the days ahead, with openness to the delight and presence of God along the way.  

Do any of you feel like your summer is blasting away? Or time in general! Are we moving so fast that we no longer enjoy anything? In this podcast episode, we are going to talk about savoring those summer moments that we have.  We don't have to change or cancel our plans, just slow down a little to savor the moments that we have. Shifting down is our focus.  A simple shift in one direction can change the momentum of our pace and the rest of our day.  Could a simple downshift from fifth gear to fourth make all the difference in our connection, our feelings of hurry and anxiety, and peace? Listen in for simple tips to shift down, like taking in nature, putting away our phones, and writing down golden moments. We could all benefit physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually by a simple downshift to get us on a better track!

This week, McKay introduces a practical and powerful challenge: the one-month happiness test. Drawing inspiration from Laurie Santos's famous Yale course, "Psychology and the Good Life," this episode moves beyond big, life-altering events to focus on the small, consistent actions that are scientifically proven to boost happiness. McKay breaks down simple yet profound practices like savoring positive moments, actively choosing your focus through selective attention, expressing gratitude, performing acts of kindness, and strengthening social connections. Through relatable stories and real-world examples, he illustrates how these "micro-adjustments" can retrain our brains, counteracting our natural negativity bias and leading to a more joyful, fulfilling life. Listeners are invited to take the test for themselves and discover how intentional, daily habits can create lasting change.Main Themes:Happiness comes from small, consistent changes, not just big life events.You can retrain your brain to focus on the positive through selective attention.Savoring positive experiences - before, during, and after - deepens their impact.Practicing gratitude is a powerful choice that turns what you have into enough.Acts of kindness boost happiness for both the giver and the receiver.Strong social connections are a primary predictor of a long, happy life.Exercise and sleep are foundational pillars for mental well-being and happiness.You can become the author of your life by choosing what to focus on and practice.What you notice becomes your reality.A one-month test is long enough to implement new habits and see real results.Top 10 Quotes:"The strange truth is... most people return to their baseline level of happiness after these major life events. This phenomenon is called the hedonic treadmill.""Tiny, regular changes to your daily life often make a bigger, longer-lasting difference than these big things.""Your brain is built to scan for problems... but you can change what you focus on, and it will help you be more happy.""Savoring is the deliberate, post-activity act of looking back on what you've done and taking time to appreciate it.""Gratitude turns what we have into enough.""Close relationships, more than money or fame, are what kept people happy throughout their lives.""These examples aren't miracles; they're micro-adjustments in their lives.""You get to choose what you'll focus on. So this month, to test your happiness, focus on the good.""Kind service has this magic feel to it."Show Links:Open Your Eyes with McKay Christensen

In this episode, I reflect on the concept of "Savoring the Good," inspired by a recent family celebration—the 50th anniversary of my parents. This milestone event not only called for a grand celebration but also brought to light the joys and stresses of planning a gathering with many moving parts.How can we allow ourselves to truly experience and absorb these joyous moments while they unfold? How do you focus on being present and fully engaged in the experience, rather than letting the good times slip away unnoticed.It's about creating a home for joy within our lives, so we can nurture these moments and carry them with us long after the event has passed. The essence of this practice is not just about the events themselves but about cultivating a deeper capacity to find and hold onto joy, ultimately impacting how we experience our lives as we navigate the complexities of life, love, and celebrations.What you'll learn from this episode:The importance of noticing joyHow to savor the goodEmbracing the joy in your lifeFeatured on the show:Follow me on Instagram to learn more about navigating your wedding with grace and ease: https://www.instagram.com/karaghassabeh/Check out **The Bridal Prep Academy:** https://karamaureen.comLet's connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KaraMaureenBridalCoachingGet your copy of the book, **Whispers to a Bride:**https://www.amazon.com/Whispers-Bride-handle-stress-drama/dp/B0BCRXBQFN/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1UXWJVJOF3MNI&keywords=whispers+to+a+bride&qid=1662643892&sprefix=whispers+to+a+bride%2Caps%2C141&sr=8-1

To provide an offering for how to begin awakening our loving, trusting selves. And it starts with the heart.

In this episode of Embrace your Real, I'm sharing 3 things I've personally been focusing on lately that honestly have nothing to do with fitness or nutrition—but they've helped me show up stronger, more focused, and more energized in my workouts. Because here's the truth: sometimes the key to building the body you want isn't found in more workouts or more discipline... it's in building a life that supports your goals. From the inside out. Because the truth is, sometimes when you hit a plateau, the answer isn't to push harder. It's not to add more workouts, tighten your macros, or stress about your steps. Sometimes, the thing that unlocks progress is actually the least expected strategy: Cultivating more peace in your life.   What I discuss:  Protecting my energy Savoring the little moments Being intentional with what I consume   If you loved this episode, I know you'll also love episode 436: 6 Simple Ways to Reduce Stress Daily   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...
