What if the fact that we sometimes we "lose it" as parents doesn't make us bad parents? What if those times stem from an overwhelmed nervous system, and what happens when we get curious about what's underneath? Marriage and family therapist Dr. Cassidy Freitas, host of the "Holding Space" podcast and author of the new book MOM NEEDS A MOMENT, explains why parents "lose it," what our emotional reactions are really telling us, and how we can interrupt generational patterns without striving for perfection. In this episode, you'll learn: How childhood experiences shape your parenting triggers today. The difference between guilt and shame. Why repair after conflict is often more powerful than trying to be a perfect parent. How social media and intensive parenting culture fuel parental burnout and self-criticism. What "creating margin" means—and why a few moments of space can transform your relationship with your children. How to recognize your triggers before reacting. The simple phrase Dr. Freitas uses to calm her nervous system in difficult parenting moments.

Welcome back to the Coffee with Heather series! This week, we're talking about something that has completely transformed the way I parent: connection before correction.For a long time, I believed it was my job to control my boys' behavior. I thought that if I could just get them to listen better, behave better, or make fewer mistakes, then I would be doing my job as a mom. But if I'm honest, that mindset left me feeling anxious, overwhelmed, and disconnected from the very people I wanted to love well.The more parents, mentors, and experts I interviewed over the years, the more I realized something beautiful: God never called me to control my children. He called me to guide them, disciple them, and build a relationship where they know they are deeply loved and safe.When connection becomes the foundation, correction becomes so much more effective.In this episode, I share some of the parenting lessons that have given me freedom, including insights from Jim and Lynne Jackson and the biblical reminder that God's kindness leads us to repentance. That verse has changed the way I think about discipline—not as punishment, but as teaching, guiding, and helping my children grow.When our children know they are loved, enjoyed, and accepted, trust begins to grow. And trust creates partnership. From that place, correction feels less like control and more like discipleship.In this episode, we'll talk about: The difference between behavior management and heart transformation. Why discipline is really about teaching, not punishing. How to become a safe place for your children. The importance of staying calm and regulating your own emotions. Why giving your child—and yourself—a "do-over" can strengthen your relationship. Practical ways to create meaningful one-on-one connections, even during busy seasons.

Kids have big emotions. Parents do too. The work is not pretending those feelings are not there, but learning how to stay in the driver's seat when they show up. In this episode, Ryan talks with Dr. Becky Kennedy about deeply feeling kids, why so much “bad behavior” is really a lack of skills, and how parents can respond with more patience.Dr. Becky Kennedy is a clinical psychologist, bestselling author, and the founder and CEO of Good Inside, a parenting platform that gives parents practical tools for raising emotionally healthy kids. Named “The Millennial Parenting Whisperer” by TIME, Dr. Becky is the #1 New York Times bestselling author of Good Inside: A Guide to Becoming the Parent You Want to Be and host of the chart-topping podcast Good Inside with Dr. Becky.

King Saul was hunting David, determined to kill the man God had anointed to take his place. Then, in a moment that seemed perfectly arranged for revenge, Saul entered the very cave where David and his men were hiding. David had the opportunity to end his suffering—but instead of killing Saul, he cut off a corner of Saul's robe and spared his life. In today's episode of the MY Devotional Podcast, Dr. Michael Youssef points to David's restraint as a powerful example of faith in God's justice. David could have justified vengeance, especially after years of running for his life while Saul remained safe in the palace. But David knew a Truth declared throughout Scripture: God is the righteous Judge. Psalm 37 reveals David's hard-won confidence. Though the wicked may appear successful for a season, their triumph is temporary. God sees every injustice, every plot, every cruelty, and every hidden motive—and He will make all things right in His time. When you are mistreated, overlooked, or tempted to envy the temporary success of the wicked, don't lose heart. Keep calm. Look up. Your heavenly Father is sovereign, and the meek will inherit His promised peace. Prayer: Lord, may I be filled with compassion and also find comfort in the promise that evil will receive Your righteous judgment. I pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.  “A little while, and the wicked will be no more; though you look for them, they will not be found. But the meek will inherit the land and enjoy peace and prosperity” (Psalm 37:10-11).

When meltdowns hit, body reacts before mind catches up. How to Stay Calm When Your Child Is Screaming at You helps you interrupt escalation, reset nervous system, and respond with clarity. Dr. Roseann Capanna-Hodge specializes in Regulation First Parenting™ and emotional dysregulation, offering solutions.When your child is screaming, it hits your nervous system fast—tight chest, racing heart, rising voice. You're not alone.Staying calm in that moment feels impossible, but it's not about perfection—it's about regulation.In this episode, you'll learn how to stay calm when your child is screaming at you by understanding what's really happening in the brain, why reactions escalate so quickly, and simple, doable ways to reset the moment—without power struggles or guilt.Why do I lose control when my child is screaming at me?When your child escalates, your brain reads it as a threat—not disrespect. That's biology, not bad parenting.Your nervous system mirrors intensity as a survival reflexEmotional energy gets matched, not managedStress builds quickly in both of youIt's not bad parenting—it's a dysregulated brain.Picture this: your child is yelling, “I hate you!” and within seconds, your voice is louder too. You didn't plan it—it just happened. That's co-dysregulation.What should I do in the moment instead of yelling back?Forget fixing everything. Stabilize yourself first. Let's calm the brain.Pause for 3 seconds before respondingLower your voice (even if it feels forced)Say less—zip it to avoid escalationCalm your body (drop shoulders, slow breath)You don't need perfect words—you need a regulated nervous system.Example: One mom shared that the moment she stopped explaining and simply stayed quiet and grounded, her child de-escalated faster. Less input = less fuel.Is my child trying to manipulate me when they scream?No. Behavior is communication.Your child isn't choosing chaos—they're overwhelmedTheir nervous system is pulling them out of calmThey often regret it after but can't stop in the momentThink about Marnie, a teen who went from calm to explosive in seconds. Later, she said, “I didn't mean that. I just couldn't stop myself.”That's not manipulation—that's dysregulation.You don't have to figure this out alone. Become a Dysregulation Insider VIP and get your FREE Regulation Rescue Kit: How to Stay Calm When Your Child Pushes Your Buttons and Stop Oppositional Behaviors.

Like the calm teacher in a chaotic classroom—she didn't control the kids by force, she regulated the room with her presence.

Shakings Coming (1) (audio) David Eells – 6-24-26 IT WILL SHAKE THE WORLD! Lynne Johnson 5-27-26 IAM, King Yeshuya wants you, My people to know that all will erupt soon in Iran. President Trump is playing a waiting game with the radicalized left in the IRGC for there are many factions vying for control. Trump is ensuring that when the United States military strikes Iran, the United States will have very few casualties. Trump doesn't want American casualties, therefore the United States is intending to use all intelligence being fathered to ensure few American casualties. When the U.S. Military strikes, there will be no doubt that the IRGC, in its radical form, is no longer in existence. Once assured of the success of this campaign, Trump will have the military pull back to the general areas away from Iran. Very shortly after the United States military pulls back from Iran, then Israel will strike. First, Damascus, Syria (a weapon depot) destroying it. Next, Israel will move against Iran's nuclear facilities along with their weapon depots. These strikes will effectively end Iran's nuclear program. Once this is concluded, then very shortly look for the First Event of MY Judgments (again these events of Mine, King Yeshuya, are not those of Tribulation, which are far worse, for a much longer time frame), the California earthquake which will shake the world as this earthquake is massive in size and in effect. I AM, King Yeshuya tells you this again so that you MY children, MY Believers are warned to plan, to prepare for what is soon to occur. IAM always warns ahead through MY prophets and messengers. Listen to My Words, heed My Warnings for they are to help protect you and your families. Continue MY children to come to ME in prayer, stay in MY Word, stay focused, stay calm. Come directly to ME, King Yeshuya with your queries. I AM will gladly answer you. IAM loves you MY children. Your King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Most High, Commander of heaven's hosts and armies, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace. Scriptures: Psalm 20:7 NKJV “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember and trust in the name of the Lord our God.” Isaiah 43:2 NKJV “When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through fire, you will not be scorched, nor will the flame burn you.” Ezekiel 7:7 NKJV “Doom has come to you, you who dwell in the land; the time has come, a day of trouble is near, and not of rejoicing in the mountains.” Isaiah 17:1 NIV “A prophecy against Damascus: “See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins.” Isaiah 13:9 NKJV “Behold, the day of the Lord comes, cruel with both wrath and fierce anger, to lay the land desolate; and He will destroy its sinners from it.” Isaiah 13:6 NKJV “Wait, for the day of the Lord is at hand! It will come as destruction from the Almighty.” John 14:29 NKJV “And now I told you before it comes, that when it does come to pass, you may believe.” Lamentations 3:25 NKJV “The Lord is good to those who wait for Him, to the soul who seeks Him.”   FAMINE WILL EXTEND WORLDWIDE Lynne Johnson – 5-9-26 I AM, King Yeshuya, would like MY people to know that it is soon for the “Iranian Conflict” to conclude. It will end as IAM has stated; the United States will deploy missiles, which will effectively end the IRGC Regime's control over Iran. Then the United States will pull back their military, leaving destroyers, aircraft carriers, and such in the area. Shortly after the United States military is pulled back, Israel will strike Damascus, the other weapon depots in Syria, then strike Iran's nuclear facilities and weapon depots. Israel will present the truth with proof that Iran fully intended to finish the building of nuclear bombs to destroy Israel. There will be the usual outcry, but no one will “lift a hand” against Israel, for all of the surrounding Arab nations know the truth. They also know that they were not safe from Iran's nuclear attacks. Again MY children, this is your marker to know that you only have a short time to finish getting your food, to prepare for what is coming, MY First Event – Judgment upon California. Do not put off procuring your food, your other necessities. Use cash as much as possible and by going to different stores. Do not discuss storing food with ANY OTHERS as IAM has clearly stated unless you have spoken directly with ME, King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords to find out who you are able to trust. Ensure that you get your answer from ME, BEFORE you talk with others. If you choose not to listen to ME here, you and your family will suffer harm. People will become desperate quickly for food – any food that they are able to find. They do not wish to share, and they will harm others to get food. Those who have not done so recently or at all, are to read Jeremiah – ALL OF IT! You will see what hunger does to people. There will be few people who you will be able to trust now, so be discreet and come to ME, King Yeshuya to find out who you can SAFELY SHARE YOUR FOOD WITH. You must also accept MY answer as final. IAM alone sees the hearts, minds, thoughts and intentions of ALL people! You do not. You must also understand that the famine will extend worldwide. It will not be located only in specific cities, areas, or countries. With the famine, there will be deaths and then pestilences due to these deaths. IAM will give you more specific detail on this soon. FOR NOW YOUR JOB IS TO PREPARE. COME DIRECTLY TO ME WITH YOUR QUESTIONS AS I AM WILL GLADLY ANSWER YOU. MY BELOVED CHILDREN, STAY IN PRAYER TO ME, STAY IN MY WORD, STAY FOCUSED, STAY CALM. Your King Yeshuya, the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, the Most High, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End, the Lion of Judah, the Prince of Peace Scriptures: Isaiah 17:1 NKJV “The burden against Damascus. “Behold, Damascus will cease from being a city, and it will be a ruinous heap.” Luke 21:11 NKJV “And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven.” Psalm 9:8 NKJV “He shall judge the world in righteousness, and He shall administer judgment for the people in uprightness.” Ecclesiastes 8:6 NKJV “Because for every matter there is a time and judgment, though the misery of man increases greatly.” Psalm 76:8 NKJV “You caused judgment to be heard from heaven; the earth feared and was still.” Deuteronomy 8:6 NKJV “Observe the commands of the LORD your God, walking in obedience to Him and revering Him.” Proverbs 15:11 NKJV “Hell and Destruction are before the Lord; so how much more the hearts of the sons of men.” Psalm 112:5 NKJV “A good man deals graciously and lends; he will guide his affairs with discretion.” Deuteronomy 32:24 NKJV “They shall be wasted with hunger, devoured by pestilence and bitter destruction; I will also send against them the teeth of beasts, with the poison of serpents of the dust.” Romans 12:12 NKJV “Rejoicing in hope, patient in tribulation, continuing steadfastly in prayer,”   GOLDEN DOME MR POOL X - *GOLDEN DOME went fully operational on June 14, 2026.** Not announced.

In this episode, I'm joined by nervous system specialist Helen Machen-Pearce to explore what regulation really means, why nobody stays perfectly regulated, and how coaches can better support both themselves and their clients in an increasingly dysregulated world. We discuss the hidden impact of trauma, stress, modern technology, and generational patterns on the nervous system, and why it's remarkable that so many people are functioning as well as they are given the pressures of modern life. Helen and I explore the difference between empathy and overwhelm, why regulation is not about eliminating discomfort, and how long-term nervous system change happens slowly through consistent practice rather than quick fixes, hacks, or miracle techniques. We also examine the foundations of sustainable wellbeing, including lifestyle, relationships, environment, spirituality, meaning, and embodiment practices. Along the way, I share personal reflections on recovery, meditation, retreats, coaching, and the ongoing process of building greater resilience and self-regulation over time. The conversation also covers boundaries between work and life, the role of ritual and leisure, the dangers of seeking one single solution to complex human problems, and why nervous system awareness is at the heart of effective coaching, leadership, learning, and human connection.  ------------------------------------------- Check out our new  Certification for Coaching Neurodivergent Clients https://embodimentunlimited.com/coaching-neurodivergent-clients/ ----------------------------------------------- Become a certified embodiment coach.

What if the secret to influencing people, uncovering the truth, and becoming a better leader isn't authority — it's emotional intelligence? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Sabine Charles shares how her career as a fraud investigator and internal auditor taught her an unexpected lesson: people reveal their deepest truths when they feel understood. From interviewing fraud suspects who "spilled the beans" within minutes to helping professionals overcome performance anxiety and pass high-stakes certification exams, Sabine reveals the mindset and emotional intelligence strategies that transformed her approach to leadership. Together, we explore her MEQ (Mindset, Emotional Intelligence, and Leadership Qualities) framework, the surprising connection between hypnotherapy and peak performance, how to adapt communication across cultures, and why understanding people is far more important than being right.

What does the future of NATO look like in an era of evolving threats and shifting alliances?In this episode, NIDS Senior Fellow, Kirk Fansher joins Curtis to review and assess Hans Petter Midttun's proposed CALM (Coalition of Like Minds) concept to bolster Euro-deterrence and NATO credibility. Arguing that "NATO no longer guarantees Europe's security," CALM seeks to bring the more "enthusiastic" allies (and Ukraine) into a more credible and formidable group that would be relieved of NATO politics and independent of American support. The conversation explores how nuclear deterrence continues to underpin NATO's stability, while raising critical questions about alliance cohesion, U.S. leadership, and Europe's path toward greater strategic autonomy. As the war in Ukraine reshapes the security environment, this episode offers a timely and insightful look at how NATO must adapt to remain credible, unified, and effective in deterring future threats.https://euromaidanpress.com/2025/12/22/the-alternative-to-nato-a-coalition-of-like-minded-european-countries/ https://euromaidanpress.com/2026/05/04/nato-is-dead-meet-calm/https://thinkdeterrence.com/ like and follow us –The NIDS View: https://media.rss.com/nuclearview/feed.xmlLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/thinkdeterrenceX.com: https://x.com/thinkdeterrenceYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCyGa4dcPqONWzjmbuZMOBHQRumble: https://rumble.com/user/NIDSthinkdeterrenceGlobal Security Review: https://globalsecurityreview.comOur Free Events: https://thinkdeterrence.com/events/

In this episode of the Quietly Visible podcast, Carol discussed strategies for managing anxiety and improving confidence when speaking in high-stakes situations. She explained how public speaking can trigger communication apprehension, particularly for introverts, and outlined four key techniques to address this: thorough preparation beforehand, practicing box breathing exercises to calm nerves, parking worrisome thoughts for later reflection rather than ruminating on them, and staying present in the moment. Carol shared a personal example from delivering her TEDx talk to illustrate how applying these techniques can help maintain composure and confidence during challenging presentations.Take the confidence, influence, and impact assessment at https://aboundingsolutions.com/taketheimpactassessment/

I told a small, self-deprecating… white lie.To get out of committing to volunteering for a new project.My bad.You see? I had history with this person. Co-founder of an advocacy nonprofit. Small. Neurodivergency-affirming. Big ideas. Little organization.“I'm not sure I'm the right guy for your project. I just can't seem to do something… this big… anymore.” I just want to gracefully bow out. Yet not hurt feelings. Or challenge them.I plough on gamely, “Maybe we can chat once in a while…?”“Sure you can! I know you can do it!” That zeal of a new convert to pop psychology. Rapid-fire words ricocheting out of my headset. “You just have imposter syndrome. I know. Because I do too! I have this book you could read…”I tried to be gentle. “My friend, I don't have a syndrome of any kind. I'm just telling the truth. No need for diagnosis.”It went rapidly downhill from there.Let's say, I felt immediate… unease.While we were talking. But I didn't know why. Yet.But like a persistent smell neurodivergent-dot-me can never ignore… that feeling lingered. Building as I replay the conversation over and over. Then it takes days to recover. Before I can work on my projects again.Because what I experienced? Some label “benevolent ableism.” I call it soft-core discrimination. Trying to look like… kindness.I'll never know their motivation. I won't risk the pain of asking.You see? “Kind” words can do real damage.All you really gotta do to cause pain? Simply speak in the grammar of help… then act out the logic of condescension.That's it.Some research supports this… catch-22. Patronizing support? It's one of the most common, damaging, and invisible acts one human can perpetrate on another disabled human. That I know.Cuz it's deniable. So at best, socially dangerous to challenge. A lot like an unwanted, ambiguous… intimate… gesture. From an acquaintance. And queasiness has only gotten worse for me with every ambiguous human interchange.The weapon and pain metaphors I use in the performance piece? Intentional.Cuz the escalation you may experience?These. Are. My. Reality.This ain't about an additional diagnosis. Or a personality flaw. It is about me being autistic-as-fuck me.Yeah. I may be a tad more sensitive to condescension than the Average Bear. Just like I need sunglasses. Even on many cloudy days.Which ought to be actually advocated for. Not patronized. By an advocate. Or employer. Or loved one.Cuz this is not something I can self-help-guru my way out of. Or be trained to control through Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.Like I need one more thought to exhaustingly monitor. Monitoring that could never “cure” my sensory issue with smells. Or my freaking balance problems. Least of all my condescension trauma…So, the only guiding principle I must remember when I navigate social or professional waters…“I must honor my limits. Or they will disable me.”One last thing…I wrote this about my real experiences as an autistic professional. In a world unkind to difference.But my guess? Folks from any “disadvantaged” background may see themselves in it.Let's build on that kinship. Maybe make a change. Together.IntroContent Note: Contain”IntroContent Note: Contain”IntroContent Note: Contains descriptions of everyday condescension… and opinions. That may resonate uncomfortably for autistic, neurodivergent, and… other people.The Cruelest Knife Leaves No ScarYou never feel the cruelest knife Poison-tipped with a pat on the head A smugly… gentle… smile Words so softly, warmly… said.He only said… “You're flourishing. Even with autism. Good on you.”Judgment is like napalm Dropped benignly… safely… from on high Burning invisibly… under my skin.She casually said… “You got imposter syndrome. I got this book…?”Or some radiant dirty bomb Parachuting slyly… tenderly… Silently melting my guts inside.The manual simply read… “Neurodivergents think outside the box. That makes them perfect… for certain tasks.”Leaving a foul smell in the air Mustard gas masquerading… Like piercing gas-station incense Labelled... blindingly, “Stay Calm.”Stealth Weapons of Mass Humiliation Or casual toxic caring Preening in plain sight Don't breed even sullen gratitude Just resentment. Rebellion. Sometimes? The worship of tyrants. You never feel the cruelest knife No, Not right away. A slice so sharp it leaves no scar So weird… that instant shapes my life.More autistic lived experience: If this resonated for you, I share more pieces like this on AutisticAF Out Loud.Readings for Your Deeper DiveNot exhaustive.

Why do we react so quickly, overthink decisions, or feel overwhelmed in certain moments; and, why is it so hard to stay grounded?In this episode of Quiet Strength: The Power of Heart Postures, we explore what pulls us away from a steady heart and how reactivity, overwhelm, and internal stress begin to take over.Instead of trying to fix or control those reactions, you'll learn how to recognize them with awareness, so you can create space, respond more intentionally, and return to a more grounded state.Using insights from the Enneagram and the three centers of intelligence (body, heart, and mind), this episode will help you better understand your natural response patterns and how they show up in everyday life.In this episode, you'll learn:Why reactivity isn't the problem - unawareness isHow overwhelm, overthinking, and emotional intensity pull you out of the present momentThe different ways people lose their sense of steadinessHow the Enneagram reveals your default stress patternsA simple, practical way to pause and return to a grounded stateIf you've ever felt stuck in your thoughts, emotions, or reactions, this episode will help you slow down, notice what's happening beneath the surface, and begin to respond with more clarity and calm.Join me for our first Quiet Strength Gathering - a free monthly space to reflect, connect, and grow alongside other quiet leaders.

In this episode, Caleb Jones connects spirituality with Alpha Male 2.0 by explaining how clarity around who you are, what you are, your purpose, and your mission creates deep emotional stability in an uncertain world. He argues that once these four core areas are defined, even major threats like AI, societal collapse, or personal loss become far easier to face with calm, confidence, and long-term perspective.

It's not just about tactics; it's about showing up with clarity, empathy, and intention. You'll learn: Why curiosity outperforms confrontation How your internal narratives drive your outcomes When to push forward—and when to walk away This episode isn't just about negotiating better deals — it's about becoming a better communicator in every part of your life. Because how you show up changes everything.

What does it actually look like to be a witchy woman when everything falls apart? In this living room edition of the Stay Magic Podcast, I'm sharing the full story of hosting our first large-scale in-person event in Salem, Massachusetts -- the photographer's car accident, the flat tire on the highway, the last-minute pivots -- and the real magic that carried us through all of it.This episode is a conversation on nervous system regulation, intentional energy, and what it means to CREATE energy instead of just reacting to it. Because that, witchy friend, is the real practice. Not the tarot cards or the candles, but in the way you move through the moments when things don't go as planned.If you've ever wondered what modern witchcraft looks like in real life (especially as a working woman, a mom, a leader, a CEO, a human just trying to stay grounded) this one's for you.

Why does homework and school in general turn into a battle in so many homes?In this insightful conversation, Dr. Matthew Housson breaks down what's really going on when kids struggle with homework—and why it's often not a discipline issue at all. Instead, many challenges come down to executive function skills—things like planning, focus, emotional regulation, and the ability to start and finish tasks.We talk about how brain development impacts motivation, why some kids struggle to shift into “low dopamine” tasks like homework, and what parents can do to support their child without taking over.If you've ever felt frustrated, confused, or even discouraged trying to help your child succeed academically, this episode will give you clarity, practical tools, and encouragement—you're not alone, and there is a better way forward. In this episode we talk about:  When behavior is developmentally normal vs. when to seek help The key signs of depression in teens (including irritability) Why a full profile is often more helpful than a diagnosis Practical tools to make homework time smoother Executive function skills are learned and developed over time You can't rush development—but you can support it Connect with Dr. Matthew Housson:  Website: Home - The Housson Center Facebook: The Housson Center Instagram: The Housson Center (@thehoussoncenter) Links Mentioned:  Resources from The Housson Center (books & websites) Definitions of different childhood challenges (parent resource) Related Episodes: How to Stay Calm with School Stress :: Kirk Martin {Ep 88} School Choice Series: Public School Options with Emily Fenlaw:: [Ep 561] Grace Based Discipline for Kids with Unique Needs :: Karis Murray [Ep 237] Featured Sponsors:  Hiya: We've worked out a special deal with Hiya for their best selling children's vitamin.

As moms, we are like a life support system for our kids. To keep our families healthy, we need to be healthy. A key part of our overall well being is setting healthy boundaries. But boundaries are hard. They require uncomfortable, direct conversations. We may need to put a limit on really good things or draw a line in the sand with our in-laws or parents. My guest, Dr. John Townsend literally wrote the book on boundaries and he shares some deep wisdom on how to set healthy boundaries while honoring our family members and others. “You've got to take care of your energy, your heart and your emotions. You've got to take care of yourself and your health. If you don't guard that heart, then the wellsprings of life won't come out from it. Boundaries are basically about how to set healthy, loving limits in our life. So we have something to offer to our children.”Townsend answers your tough questions about setting limits with in-laws, making healthy boundaries for the holidays and even models having a tough conversation with a parent about a boundary. This is an episode packed with great information and Townsend has several books and resources available if you want to go deeper.

Most of us spend our lives in conversation – yet very few of us are ever taught how to communicate well. Whether it's with our partners, colleagues, family or friends, we often assume that being heard is the same as being understood. But true communication isn't just about the words we use – it's about the tone, timing and energy behind them. Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I'll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests. Today's clip is from episode 571 with trial lawyer, sought after public speaker and author of the book, The Next Conversation: Argue Less, Talk More -  Jefferson Fisher Jefferson believes that better communication can transform not only our relationships, but our health and happiness as well. In this clip, he shares the three essential principles to better communication, and how to shift from reaction to reflection by making your first word your breath.
