If you feel like your homeschool only works when you're sitting right beside your child every minute, this episode is for you. In this episode, I share how medical appointments and special needs forced me to rethink my role in our homeschool — and how that shift helped us raise more independent learners without falling behind. I walk you through five practical ways to reduce constant parent involvement, including building rhythm instead of rigidity, leaning into your child's natural interests, using narration instead of endless worksheets, and protecting core skills while letting curiosity lead. If you're exhausted being the engine of everything, I hope this episode gives you permission to build a homeschool that feels alive — not heavy. Quick favor: If you'd like to potentially have me create an episode for you, I created a short questionnaire to help guide future episodes. As a thank you, anyone who fills it out will be entered into a drawing for a copy of my Movie Schooling book at the end of the semester.

Text your thoughts and questions!If you have ever felt like you should be treating yourself better but have no idea where to start, or maybe the idea of being nice to yourself feels strange, you're not alone. Many of us struggle with a harsh internal monologue, feeling isolated in our stress or trapped by rigid societal expectations. That's why, in this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I am sharing five simple ways to treat yourself better!In this episode of the Positively LivingⓇ Podcast, I show you how you can move from the theory of self-compassion to practical, daily application, reducing shame along the way.The five tips I cover in this episode include: Audit your internal monologue by first noticing how you speak to yourself in times of stress.Practice needs-based self-compassion, understanding it as an indulgence. Listen to your body's signals of depletion and take them as a sign to regulate your nervous system. Embrace common experiences, reminding yourself that you're not alone in how you feel.Utilize permission statements, allowing yourself to show up imperfect, change your mind, or set limits. Self-compassion isn't built through grand gestures; it's built through small moments of noticing and recalibrating. This week, don't try to master all five techniques. Instead, choose one single practice, try it for a few days and see what unfolds.Thank you for listening!

Last week, on the last episode of the series on the Presentation Skills Checklist, we covered how many slides to put into a PowerPoint Presentation. This week, our topic is "3 Simple Ways to Create Better PowerPoint Presentations."By the way, if you are using the techniques I outline on other episodes of the podcast, creating a PowerPoint presentation should be really easy. Basically, in a presentation, less is more.But on this episode, I give you my top three tips that will help you kill your next presentation. First, we cover how to design your presentation first, then create your slideshow. Next, I show you how to use examples from real-life to add credibility to the text on your slides. Ad then, finally, I show you how to create collateral content -- things like handouts -- that can help your audience understand and retain the content of your presentations better.Show Notes: 3 Simple Ways to Create Better PowerPoint Presentations(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/three-simple-ways-to-create-better-powerpoint-presentations/)

So many couples say they want their sex life back.But what they're actually longing for isn't more performance… It's more presence.In this episode of Reignite: Love, Sex & Truth for Conscious Couples, Kim & Roberto unpack why fading desire is rarely about libido — and almost always about emotional safety, nervous system regulation, and depth of connection.They explore the difference between mechanical sex and sacred intimacy, and why so many long-term couples are unknowingly pressing the gas and the brake at the same time.This conversation invites you to look beneath the surface and ask a more honest question:Do I want more sex… or do I want to feel deeply met? What You'll Hear in This EpisodeWhy couples often think they want more sex — when what they're actually craving is emotional intimacyHow stress, survival mode, and emotional disconnection quietly shut down desireWhat is the difference between mechanical sex and sacred intimacy rooted in presenceWhat are the four levels of orgasm, and why do most couples never move beyond the firstHow emotional safety, transparency, and vulnerability reopen the body.Why intimacy is cultivated through practice, not pressure or performance. Sex doesn't disappear because you're broken.It fades when safety fades.And when couples learn how to restore emotional connection… desire often returns naturally.The intimacy you've been missing was never about sex.It was about depth. ✨ Save your spot for our upcoming February and April Group Couples Retreat: A sacred, guided experience for five couples ready to reconnect, heal, and reignite.

In this episode, I talk about a simple way to correct your child without overreacting or letting things slide. I explain how small, consistent verbal reminders act like course corrections, helping children adjust their behaviour before it becomes a habit. This matters because what we allow becomes normal in our homes, and small choices shape long-term character in our child's life. In This Episode Why behaviours that seem to appear "suddenly" have usually developed gradually How what we accept becomes our child's norm The difference between correction and punishment The idea of correction as a course correction, not a big reaction How children learn something from every response we give Practical examples of simple verbal reminders Heart-Focused Parenting Action Step Over the next 24 hours, choose one behaviour you've been overlooking and prepare a simple verbal reminder you will consistently use to help your child adjust and practise doing what is right.

209 (Great to share with your spouse) Why does defensiveness show up so quickly in marriage—especially when an HSP (Highly Sensitive Person) wife is trying to express hurt? And why does it often sound calm, logical, and completely reasonable?In this episode on subtle defensiveness spotting, we break down both the obvious and the harder-to-detect forms of defensiveness in intimate relationships—especially the “reasonable explanation” reflex many husbands fall into without realizing it. You'll hear specific examples of what defensiveness sounds like, how subtle defensiveness shows up in men in real time, why it happens, and what it feels like for highly sensitive women on the receiving end.If you're an HSP woman who feels unheard when your husband explains instead of empathizes—or you're a husband who genuinely wants to show up with more emotional safety, connection, and confidence—this episode will help you recognize the defensiveness cycle that keeps couples stuck and learn how to spot it before it quietly erodes connection.We'll explore:Classic defensiveness in marriage (denial, minimizing, shutting down)The sneaky forms of subtle defensiveness that sound reasonable but create distanceHow to spot subtle defensiveness in real timeWhy men tend towards defensiveness more than women (important to understand for more compassion)How defensiveness quietly erodes emotional intimacyWhat HSP women need in moments of conflict to feel safe and connectedWhether you're a highly sensitive wife longing for deeper emotional connection or a husband wanting to strengthen your marriage with your HSP partner, this conversation will help you see what's really happening beneath the surface.Because defensiveness isn't about not caring—it's often about caring deeply and not knowing how to stay connected when you feel imperfect. Let's begin showing that care in ways that truly land.SHOW NOTES:Special limited time course, for the spouses of HSP women: THE SUPPORTIVE PARTNER MICRO-COURSE; 5 Simple Ways to Meet Your Highly Sensitive Wife with Empathy and Love -- only available until Feb 24th.

They unpack how emotional and erotic hunger often gets misinterpreted as boredom, and why mid-life and long-term partnership amplify the call for depth, presence, and truth.This conversation invites couples to slow down before making big decisions… and to listen more closely to what the body and heart are actually asking for. What You'll Hear in This EpisodeWhy boredom is often a sign of emotional numbness or erotic hunger, not a sign that love is goneHow routine, autopilot, and lack of presence quietly drain aliveness from long-term relationshipsWhy midlife makes the longing for depth louder and why this isn't a crisis, but an invitationWhat is the difference between feeling done and feeling numbWhat people are actually craving beneath the restlessness How emotional safety and presence reignite desire more powerfully than novelty or performanceWhy depth, not distraction, is what brings intimacy back online You're not bored because something is wrong.You're bored because something deeper wants to be lived.And when couples are willing to listen…relationships don't end. They evolve. ✨ Save your spot for our upcoming February and April Group Couples Retreat: A sacred, guided experience for five couples ready to reconnect, heal, and reignite.

This week, Tee is delighted to welcome Monica Cox for a conversation about fertility. Monica is a holistic functional fertility coach and the founder of Finding Fertility, a coaching platform and podcast dedicated to helping women discover the root causes of "unexplained" infertility. Monica's professional work is rooted in her personal nine-year struggle with infertility. Despite being told by doctors she could not conceive naturally, she eventually became a mother to two boys—one through IVF and one naturally. Together, Tee and Monica discuss the importance of reducing environmental toxins, managing stress, and improving gut health to boost fertility naturally. Monica shares her struggles with unexplained infertility, her transition to a toxin-free lifestyle using a paleo diet, yoga, and functional medicine, and how she ultimately succeeded in having children. The conversation emphasizes the significance of avoiding endocrine disruptors, detoxing before conception, and the impact of a clean lifestyle on future generations' health. The discussion also touches on the benefits of holistic living beyond fertility, offering practical tips for minimizing toxins in daily life.

Ahead of Valentine’s Day, Hawaii marriage therapists are encouraging couples to fine tune their relationship. Studies show most couples wait an average of six years or longer before seeking help, and the majority who do see their relationship improve. Dr. Blendine Hawkins, Chaminade’s director of the Doctor of Marriage and Family Therapy Program, says just like preventative medicine, marriage therapy can prevent possible challenges later on in a relationship. She explains how on this Valentine's Day episode of "Muthaship."
Midlife often gets labelled as a crisis… but for many couples, it's actually an awakening.It's the moment when old roles, surface-level connections, and autopilot living stop working, and something deeper starts asking for attention.In this episode of Reignite: Love, Sex & Truth for Conscious Couples, we explore why midlife is often when real intimacy finally becomes possible. Not because everything feels easy… but because pretending, performing, and avoiding truth no longer satisfies.They speak to the restlessness, desire for more, and emotional honesty that arise in this season and how couples can either grow apart or consciously meet each other in a deeper, more alive way.This conversation reframes mid-life not as a breakdown… but as the beginning of a more truthful, connected relationship. What You'll Hear in This EpisodeWhy midlife isn't a crisis, but a wake-up call that something deeper wants to be livedHow many couples realize they've outgrown the version of love they were taughtWhy surface-level intimacy and habitual connection stop nourishing us in mid-lifeHow desire and sexuality often deepen with age, when truth and emotional safety come onlineWhy midlife brings buried wounds, unmet needs, and unspoken desires to the surfaceHow resistance shows up when growth is near and why resistance isn't failureWhy midlife love is no longer about habit, but about conscious choice and daily recommitment Midlife isn't asking you to blow everything up.It's inviting you to stop living on autopilot… and start choosing each other with honesty, presence, and depth.That's often where the relationship actually begins. ✨ Save your spot for our upcoming February and April Group Couples Retreat: A sacred, guided experience for five couples ready to reconnect, heal, and reignite.

4 Simple Ways to Stay Rooted in God's Word When Life Is Too Busy (No Extra Time Needed) Struggling to stay in the Bible as a busy working mom? You're juggling work deadlines, kids' schedules, meals, laundry, and that endless mental load... and your quiet time often gets pushed aside. The guilt creeps in: "I should be reading the Word more," but the day feels impossible. Friend, God isn't keeping score—He's inviting you into His presence right in the middle of the chaos. In this encouraging episode, I share 4 simple, grace-filled ways to stay rooted in Scripture without adding more to your plate—no complicated routines, no guilt, just real nourishment for your soul. These practical shifts fit your real life as a Christian working mom, helping combat overwhelm, mom guilt, and spiritual dryness. Rooted in verses like Isaiah 26:3, Matthew 11:28, and 2 Corinthians 12:9, you'll walk away reminded that one intentional encounter with God's Word is enough when it's fueled by His grace. Perfect for back-to-school busyness, heavy seasons, or anytime you feel "too busy for God." Key Takeaways for Busy Christian Moms - You're not failing if devotions aren't long—small, consistent doses nourish deeply. - Micro-moments of whispered verses in transitions build roots over time. - Audio Scripture lets the Word come to you during laundry, commutes, or carpool. - Habit stacking ties God's Word to what you already do—no new "to-dos." - Release guilt: His grace is sufficient, and faithfulness > perfection.

Get Dr. Vonda's latest insights on strength, bone health, longevity, and aging with power delivered straight to your inbox. Join her free health & longevity newsletter here: https://www.drvondawright.com/resources/aging-longevity Today I want to talk with you about how women age, and why so many of us feel surprised by what happens to our bodies in midlife. This is not an episode about chasing youth or fearing wrinkles. It is about understanding why women are not taught how longevity really works in our bodies, and why the years leading up to menopause matter far more than we were ever told. I have learned, through decades of caring for women as an orthopedic sports surgeon, that we are not simply smaller versions of men. Our biology has often been overlooked in longevity research, even though estrogen quietly influences nearly every system that determines how strong, mobile, and independent we remain as we age. I want you to know this. Aging is not something that happens to you. It is something you can shape. With the right information, a few consistent habits, and a deeper understanding of your own body, you can build strength and resilience that carry you forward for decades. If you have ever felt like your body changed without warning, like the advice that once worked no longer does, or like aging has been framed as something to fear, this episode is for you. My hope is that this conversation leaves you feeling informed, supported, and empowered to age with strength, clarity, and confidence.

Self-sufficiency looks different for every family, yet many people feel stuck trying to follow generic food storage lists that don't reflect how they actually eat or live. Over time, I've learned that the most effective food and household storage plans aren't built from someone else's checklist — they're built by paying attention to what your family already uses. In this episode, I share a simple, practical self-sufficiency strategy for building food, household, and personal care storage that actually fits your life. Instead of fear-based prepping or rigid rules, this approach starts by tracking what your family uses over the course of a month and letting that information guide your storage decisions. I explain why this method works for both planners and freestyle cooks, how it naturally adapts as seasons and family needs change, and why self-sufficiency doesn't require extremes or isolation. This is about stewardship, resilience, and reducing dependence on fragile systems — without overwhelm. You'll also hear why food storage has been most valuable for our family during job changes and unexpected financial or medical seasons, not hypothetical emergencies. This system supports healthier eating, fewer last-minute grocery runs, and the quiet security of having what you need already on hand. If you want a realistic, adaptable way to build self-sufficiency through food and household storage without panic buying or complicated systems this episode will give you a clear, manageable place to start. In This Episode, I Cover: Why generic food storage lists often fail real families working toward self-sufficiency The difference between fear-based prepping and practical self-sufficiency through stewardship A simple month-long method to track what your family actually uses for food storage planning How to track food, cleaning supplies, and personal care items to build household self-sufficiency Turning real-life consumption data into a custom family food storage plan Why seasonal food audits are key to long-term self-sufficiency and preparedness How this food storage system works for both menu planners and freestyle cooks Saving money through bulk buying, shopping sales, and intentional household planning How food storage supports healthier home cooking and reduces reliance on takeout Using pantry, freezer, and food storage inventory to confidently plan bulk meat purchases Key Takeaways: Self-sufficiency starts with understanding what your family already uses Effective food storage plans should reflect real habits, not generic preparedness lists Tracking household usage for one month provides clarity without overwhelm Food storage systems should adapt as seasons, schedules, and family needs change Practical self-sufficiency creates resilience, financial stability, and peace of mind Related Episodes: 25 | Concerned About the Food Supply?

Have you ever left a conversation thinking, That's not what I meant — and still felt the distance linger? Do you ever wonder why relationships feel exhausting, confusing, or fragile… even when you genuinely try to do the right thing? Dr. Alison is joined by counselor and author Debra Fileta for a conversation that names a quiet tension many people live with but rarely articulate. Sometimes the hardest part of relationships isn't a lack of love—it's the gap between what we intend and what others experience. Together, you'll explore: Why do the same relational patterns keep repeating? Why does communication break down so quickly under stress? Why do good intentions sometimes land as hurt or distant? Why does love feel like it should be enough… but often isn't? If you've ever thought, Why does this still feel so hard when I care so much? — this episode creates space to ask better questions, without pressure to already have the answers.
Every January, couples feel the pressure to do better… communicate better… fight less… have more sex… be more intentional.But most New Year resolutions don't fail because couples don't care — they fail because they're built on pressure instead of capacity.In this episode of Reignite: Love, Sex & Truth for Conscious Couples, we unpack why real relationship change doesn't come from trying harder and what actually creates a lasting reset.This conversation invites couples to move beneath behaviour, habits, and willpower… and into nervous system awareness, embodied truth, and sustainable connection. What You'll Hear in This EpisodeWhy most New Year resolutions are rooted in shame, judgment, and pressure, and why they collapse so quicklyHow ignoring the nervous system sabotages behaviour change, even when intentions are sincereWhy real transformation begins below the surface, not at the level of habits or communication scriptsThe difference between trying harder and building capacity, and why capacity is what relationships actually needHow tantra supports embodied presence instead of self-improvement and why this creates lasting intimacyWhy does one person choosing to go deeper often create safety for the other to follow You don't need a new version of yourself this year.You need more capacity to stay present, regulated, and connected when life gets real.That's the reset relationships actually need. ✨ Save your spot for our upcoming February and April Group Couples Retreat: A sacred, guided experience for five couples ready to reconnect, heal, and reignite.
