Hey mom friends, welcome back to the podcast! If you're here, I know you're raising a tween or teen daughter who sometimes leaves you scratching your head, wondering… why on earth does she blame me for everything? From not being allowed to go to that sleepover, to not having the “right” shoes, or even her hair not doing what she wants it to do—somehow, mom is the scapegoat. Today, we're going to talk about why our daughters tend to pin it all on us, and I'll give you one powerful secret that shifts the blame game into responsibility—establishing family core values. Are you looking for a supportive mom community? The common thing I ask the moms I work with to be most valuable is having a community with other moms who get it. Who are in the weeds too. Moms who are also in the season of raising tween & teen girls. We need each other to vent, laugh, encourage and support on another. If that's you too, I have a free mom community I invite you to be a part of. You can join going to www.raisingherconfidently.com You can find me here: Work with me: www.raisingherconfidently.com Connect: hello@jeanniebaldomero.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/raisingherconfidently Free mom support community: www.raisingherconfidently.com

“Not My Fault”…Blame, Justify, or take responsibility? Even if you didn't do it, who is going to fix it, replace it, or take responsibility if you don't? Could leadership simply mean taking responsibility and fixing it- regardless of who did it? www.maxfitnesscollege.com

A talk by Thanissaro Bhikkhu entitled "Take Responsibility"
Tired of forcing your kids to say “I'm sorry,” only to have the apology come out flat, fake, or sarcastic? Do you find yourself insisting on the “right tone” until you are blue in the face, or even yelling at your child - and all the while the kid doesn't really seem to care?Here's the deal, friend. Most of the time, I've found apologizing doesn't actually teach kids responsibility. It just teaches them how to act like they feel bad. In this episode of the Sustainable Parenting Podcast, we'll dive into why traditional apologies are often worthless—and what to do instead. You'll discover two powerful steps that actually help kids take ownership of their actions: making it right (repairing the harm in a meaningful way) and making a plan (practicing what to do differently next time).From checking in with a sibling they've hurt, to helping rebuild a crashed tower, to practicing a respectful “do over” when grabbing a toy—these simple strategies build empathy, accountability, and real-life problem-solving skills.If you're ready to stop nagging, yelling or repeating your lectures about being more nice - today is the day to end empty apologies and begin using tools that raise confident and kind kids who truly know how to take responsibility for their actions and even mistakes. This episode is here to give you the simplified and sustainable parenting tools to unlock true maturity and growth in your child, while being the calm confident parent you've always wanted to be.

Take Responsibility for a Better Life We talk about some of our adventures at the Osh Kosh Airventure event and how pilots take responsibility for their airplane, their passengers, and their life. This shows in how they act and take care of things around them. If you want more out of your life, you need to be congruent and take responsibility. When problems come up, you may need to keep in mind what the other person's perspective may be. Life doesn't always work smoothly and problems can occur. You can place blame on others or you can look at what your part was and learn from any mistakes. We also talk about terrible and great negotiating techniques because how you communicate will make a difference!

As humans, we have this ability to rest our own attention from wherever it is and point it where we want to go. "Yānti deva-vratā devān pitṝn yānti pitṛ-vratāḥ." (BG 9.25) Kṛṣṇa says, "Wherever you point your attention, you're going to end up going there, so make sure you know where you're going little fella." I say that sometimes to earthworms because I see them crawling in the wrong direction. It's like, "Are you sure you want to go there? That's a desert out there." So, there's a principle of attention, and I've rendered it like this: "I respect the principle that I am fully responsible for where I direct my attention at any given point. Giving my attention to the Mahamantra while I'm chanting my rounds is essential to improving my chanting and eventually coming to the pure state of chanting." If you walk your dog and the dog goes off the leash and bites somebody, who's responsible? You or the dog? You are! Similarly, with our attention, we have to direct it. We're responsible for it. If it goes off somewhere else, that's on us. It's not like, "Oh, that's just what my attention does." Well, maybe when you are an animal, but not when you're a human, and especially not when you're a Sadhaka. Sadhaka means, "I take full responsibility for my attention," and you sign the sheet that says, "I'm taking responsibility for my own attention." This is where it really counts when we chant Japa. Because everyone says, "It's too hard, I can't do it." We can do it! Not only that, it's nectarian. "Nāma-cintāmaṇi-kṛṣṇaś caitanya-rasa-vigrahaḥ." Kṛṣṇa is fully present in his name, and he's there as a gem, just wanting to benedict our lives. That's what everyone's looking for: benediction. His name is: "Vṛṣākapi" means that when we give our attention to Kṛṣṇa, His reciprocation is to shower us with blessings, to fulfill all our desires, and to take away our miseries. So, is it worth meditating on Kṛṣṇa and taking the austerity to not look at the social media for half a second and just concentrate fully on Kṛṣṇa ? Yeah! The great acharyas do it, and they assure us that it's the doubtless and fearless way of success for all. So don't complain; chant, and don't worry if it's hard. ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #makejapagreatagain #mantrameditation #kttvg #chantharekrishnaandbehappy #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
"I respect the principle that I am fully responsible for where I direct my attention at any given moment." Just on that, being aware of the fact that it's up to us—we can't blame it on someone else, we can't blame it on our mind. We have to take full responsibility for where our attention is going, and that's our free will. Our free will is where we're directing our attention. So, if we let our mind run off in a different direction and it bites somebody, then we are the one that the police come to and say, "Hey, your dog got loose and bit somebody." You can't say, "Oh, I know nothing about it." No, he's your dog; you are the one who's going to be held responsible. So, if your attention, if you take it off a leash and let it go and it bites somebody somewhere, then that's on you. So, take full responsibility for your own attention, and don't claim that it's not possible. Don't claim that "somebody else made me do it," or whatever. And then it (the 11th principle of respect written by HG Vaisesika Dasa) goes on to say "Giving my full attention to the Mahāmantra while I'm chanting my rounds is essential to improving my chanting and eventually coming to the pure stage of chanting." ------------------------------------------------------------ To connect with His Grace Vaiśeṣika Dāsa, please visit https://www.fanthespark.com/next-steps/ask-vaisesika-dasa/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Add to your wisdom literature collection: https://iskconsv.com/book-store/ https://www.bbtacademic.com/books/ https://thefourquestionsbook.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------ Join us live on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/FanTheSpark/ Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/sound-bhakti/id1132423868 For the latest videos, subscribe https://www.youtube.com/@FanTheSpark For the latest in SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/fan-the-spark ------------------------------------------------------------ #japajolt #makejapagreatagain #mantrameditation #spiritualawakening #soul #spiritualexperience #spiritualpurposeoflife #spiritualgrowthlessons #secretsofspirituality #vaisesikaprabhu #vaisesikadasa #vaisesikaprabhulectures #spirituality #bhaktiyoga #krishna #spiritualpurposeoflife #krishnaspirituality #spiritualusachannel #whybhaktiisimportant #whyspiritualityisimportant #vaisesika #spiritualconnection #thepowerofspiritualstudy #selfrealization #spirituallectures #spiritualstudy #spiritualquestions #spiritualquestionsanswered #trendingspiritualtopics #fanthespark #spiritualpowerofmeditation #spiritualteachersonyoutube #spiritualhabits #spiritualclarity #bhagavadgita #srimadbhagavatam #spiritualbeings #kttvg #keepthetranscendentalvibrationgoing #spiritualpurpose
In this episode of Capital for Good we speak with Maria Ressa, the globally celebrated free speech champion, journalist, entrepreneur, dissident, and winner of the 2021 Nobel Peace Prize for her work “to safeguard freedom of expression, which is a precondition for democracy and lasting peace.” Ressa is a co-founder of Rappler, one of the most influential media platforms in the Philippines. For her reporting on the administration of President Rodrigo Duterte, Ressa was threatened, arrested, tried, and convicted of cyberlibel, facing over one hundred years imprisonment. Today Duterte has been arrested by the International Criminal Court and awaits trial in the Hague, Ressa has been cleared of nearly all charges, and her work as a journalist and activist continues as she warns of the very real world challenges of online disinformation. We begin with Ressa's earliest days in the United States, when her family immigrated in 1973 after martial law had been declared in the Philippines. We discuss the importance of her education in those years, in elementary, high school, and at Princeton, and the support of those who “taught her to keep learning,” lessons that would inform her pursuit of journalism when she returned to the Philippines. “I fell into journalism,” Ressa says, as she found it to be critical “connective tissue between government and the people,” and a way to “hold power to account.” She and three fellow journalists launched Rappler in 2012; by 2016, when Duterte was elected President, Ressa found herself persecuted by the government — threatened, arrested, tried and sentenced to over one hundred years in prison — for reporting on its corrupt and increasingly authoritarian practices. We discuss Ressa's fight for her rights “as a journalist and a citizen” and her realization that technology could accelerate misinformation, distort truth, and blur the boundaries between the virtual and real world. “A lie told a million times becomes a fact,” she says. Ressa chronicles these experiences in her 2022 memoir and call-to-arms How to Stand up to a Dictator: The Fight for our Future. Ressa cautions about the dangers of and linkages between the weaponization of algorithmically driven disinformation — and illiberalism worldwide. “Without facts you can't have truth, and without truth you can't have trust. The only government that exists without trust is a dictatorship: you can't have journalism or democracy.” In her own work, she and Rappler are building upon the Matrix protocol, a secure, open-source decentralized platform that has the potential to become a global independent news distribution outlet. Although she is deeply concerned — “I feel like Cassandra and Sisyphus combined,” she says – Ressa also maintains her faith in the power of people to come together for change. “It's all about community,” she explains. “We are standing on the rubble of the world that was; we need to take responsibility for the world we want. We can build a world that is more just, more equitable, more sustainable; we can do this if we decide to come together, to demand better.” Thanks for Listening!

Walk Like Jesus - Pt 2 - Why We're Here - When we're younger, we strive to “find ourselves,” to learn the purpose of our lives. When we're older, we give up on such idealistic ideas and settle for “life as usual.” But right here, Jesus shows us the purpose He made all of us for, young and old.
JUN. 3, 2025Take responsibility for your life."Do you want to get well?" Jn 5:6 NIVWhat an amazing question Jesus asked this paralyzed man: "Do you want to get well?" Who wouldn't? You might be surprised! Kay Arthur tells of passing a beggar one day on a street in the Old City of Jerusalem. As he sat begging, his trouser leg was pulled up to reveal his terrible sores. She writes: "My nurse's heart brought my feet to a halt. I wanted to bend down and shield the open wound from the dust...It should be washed, medicated, and dressed by someone who cared. My friend gently took me by my elbow and propelled me toward our destination. I was a tourist and did not know about these things. She then proceeded to tell me that this man did not wish to be made well. He made his living from his wound! As I looked back...l caught one last glimpse of someone who was less than what he could have been." The man lying helpless on a cot by the pool called Bethesda had been there for thirty-eight years. Question: How long does it take before a problem becomes a way of life? Jesus said to him, "Get up...and walk" (v. 8 NIV), the inference being that it's time to get up and go to work—to become a father to your children, a husband to your wife, a contributor to your community, a solution to someone else's problem-it's time to take responsibility for your life. Are you letting your past or present circumstances keep you stuck and stop you from moving forward?

Kevin and Bill Jack discuss the importance of a father figure in the lives of boys. Men who never had a father figure won't take responsibility for their own children and families.

In Matthew 6:21, Jesus says, “For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” That teaching is true for everyone, and yet men and women have different perspectives on money. So how do wise women manage the resources God entrusts to them? Miriam Neff is here to talk about that today.Miriam Neff is the founder of Widow Connection, the author of 11 books, a counselor, a Bible teacher, and a speaker. She supports widows through sewing and bakery projects and is the co-author of Wise Women Managing Money: Expert Advice on Debt, Wealth, Budgeting, and More with her daughter. Her radio features New Beginnings and Starting Over Financially air nationwide.Managing money wisely is a critical skill, and for many women, the responsibility of financial stewardship comes unexpectedly. Whether due to widowhood, divorce, or simply taking on a more active role in household finances, women today oversee 51% of the wealth in the United States, a figure that continues to grow.However, with the right mindset and practical steps, women can confidently manage those resources. Here are eight key habits that wise women adopt to steward their finances well.1. Acknowledge That All We Have Belongs to GodThe foundation of wise money management begins with recognizing that everything we have is a gift from God. Whether it's a paycheck, a home, or an investment portfolio, God has entrusted our financial resources to us for stewardship.Some may think of their 401(k) or IRA as ‘theirs,' but biblically speaking, all of our resources—income, spending habits, even our possessions—belong to God. This means we must steward everything wisely, from the big decisions to the small ones.2. Take Responsibility for Knowing Your FinancesMany women suddenly find themselves responsible for managing their finances after years of leaving it to a spouse or financial professional. Miriam emphasizes that understanding one's financial situation is crucial, whether through spreadsheets, budgeting apps, or simple pen and paper.We cannot make excuses, such as “My parents never taught me this” or “My teenagers demand too much.” We are accountable to God for how we manage our resources.Taking responsibility also means seeking help. Resources like Widow Connection, Faith & Finance, and local church financial ministries provide guidance and support.3. Create a Spending Plan Based on Income and ValuesThe world encourages spending beyond our means—bigger houses, new cars, and credit card debt. However, wise financial management requires a spending plan that aligns with both our income and values.Cultural messages tell us to spend first and hope our income will catch up. Biblically, we must prioritize contentment and stewardship. A budget is a tool to help us live within our means and honor God.A values-based spending plan includes giving to God first, meeting needs before wants, and saving wisely.4. Recognize That Every Spending Decision Is a Spiritual DecisionLarry Burkett famously said, “Every spending decision is a spiritual decision.” Where we allocate our money reflects our priorities and our hearts.What do you check first thing in the morning—your bank account or social media? If we want to understand our hearts, we should examine our calendars and bank statements. They reveal our true priorities.If our spending habits don't align with our faith, it's time to make changes, even if they start small.5. Eliminate Excuses and Avoid Emotional SpendingExcuses can be a major roadblock to financial wisdom. Many justify poor financial decisions with statements like:“My spouse is a big spender.”“My children need expensive gadgets to fit in.”“I was feeling down, so I indulged in some ‘retail therapy.'”Fear and emotions should not drive our financial decisions. The Bible warns about fear-based financial mistakes, as seen in the parable of the servant who buried his talent instead of investing it (Matthew 25).Owning our financial decisions, rather than blaming circumstances or emotions, is key to stewardship.6. Take Personal Responsibility for Financial ActionsFinancial wisdom requires discipline and self-control. Some common financial missteps include:Overindulging children to compensate for a difficult divorce or personal guilt.Hoarding money to fill an emotional void rather than stewarding it wisely.Making impulsive purchases out of fear rather than planning wisely.When we take a small step toward honoring God with our finances, He steps in and provides in ways we never expected.7. Regularly Review and Adjust Your Financial PlanFinancial plans aren't static—they must evolve with life's changes. With inflation, rising costs, and unexpected expenses, a budget from last year may no longer be effective.A core principle of financial wisdom is having three to six months of emergency savings. We can't predict when financial challenges will come, but we can prepare for them.Adjustments may involve cutting unnecessary expenses, increasing savings, or shifting spending priorities.8. Invest for Kingdom PurposesThe ultimate goal of financial wisdom isn't just security—it's Kingdom impact. Everyone's calling is different, but we should all invest in eternity. Whether it's giving to your church, supporting missionaries, or helping those in need, prioritizing God's Kingdom brings the greatest return on investment.Accountability partners, financial mentors, and small group discussions can also help reinforce wise financial habits.Take the Next Step in Your Financial JourneyThese eight habits provide a roadmap for women navigating financial responsibilities. Whether you're newly managing money or looking to refine your financial approach, the key is to start today.For more insights and practical steps, pick up a copy of Wise Women Managing Money: Expert Advice on Debt, Wealth, Budgeting, and More by Miriam Neff and Valerie Neff Hogan.
