"I believe in the sanctity of childhood." That's something that Chris says in today's episode and I know each of us can stand behind that. Parenting in the Digital Age may be one of the hardest tasks we are up against with raising our children. "We have children with children's brains, children's development and we put them inside a space that was made for adults and then we get upset when they act like children. "...These spaces were not designed for them in the first place, they are by nature exploitative. They are not protective. We have to hunt for protection. And that's the part that's so difficult and maddening. I want us to embrace what can be so good about technology, but never trust it for a minute. Never turn your back on it.” ~Chris McKenna, Founder and CEO Protect Young Eyes.  Let's get connected AND protected with Chris's guidance today.

Every child will leave childhood with some kind of foundation. What will your child leave with? We have the incredible opportunity to be the architect of the beginning of their life. As today's guest, Nellie Harden, says: "This life foundation is not built by accident. It takes parents who say YES to being deliberate and intentional in the every day big and small, hard and fun." Today we're talking about 5 needs our tween and teen daughters have including: Being seen, heard, loved, and feeling belong. All of these are their worth and this is the foundation we as parents must leave our children.  Let's grow, Jennifer  Don't Miss Nellie's Daughter Decoder HERE Connect with Nellie HERE Nellie Harden Website and 5 Things Your Daughter Needs Listen to Nellie HERE on YouTube They hear a lot of voices out there.

Yes, YES! I am fed up with the world stealing the souls of our children by feeding them garbage and lies. And I know you are, too. We can complain all we want about the noisy, secular world, but we also must do something about it. Let's stand up for the TRUTH inside our own homes. Let's be sure we are feeding our children strong morals, strong values, and especially strong Biblical truths. It doesn't have to be hard. It can be as easy as capturing the small moments you already have and creating intentional moments with hands on parenting but with less pressure on yourself. You can beat this with your family and stand strong in what you stand for. Togather Moments is here because we WANT to cheer you on, give you tools, and run beside you on this journey to keeping our families on a foundation of solid faith and communication.

Do you feel like it is a struggle just to wrangle your toddlers (or teens!) for family meals? If so, Jennifer Zumbiel can relate.   Jennifer has a Bachelor's in Business Administration Marketing from the University of Kentucky and a Master's in Secondary Education from Xavier University. She is the creator and owner of  Togather Moments LLC, Togather™ conversation sticker games/tools, and the host of The Families That Stick Togather Podcast.   As a mother of four and a wife of 18 years, she understands how everyday distractions can impact face-to-face communication and threaten the strength of our relationships.

With thought-provoking conversation starters your kids can literally peel and stick, Jennifer gives busy moms the ideas we need for becoming more intentional around the table. Plus, Jennifer shares some thoughts on how to incorporate rhythms and routines around the table, like saying grace.

But what practices do you have in place in your family - RIGHT NOW - that ensure you know how to keep communication strong, respectful, and open?

Susan is a real-life hero answering God's call to keep fighting for children in foster care and the families that care for them.

Not only do I talk the talk, I walk the walk. Today’s podcast is a great example of how I practice what I preach, Direction Not perfection. In a perfect world it would be early in the week. I would be in my quiet, organized office, fine tuning an interview for you to listen to while my children were either in school or on a playdate. My dinner would be cooking in the crockpot getting ready to be served up in my spotless kitchen. But, none of us live in a perfect world. It is Thursday afternoon. You can hear kids laughing and playing in the background along with the sounds of dishes and laundry being done. I am doing this podcast hiding in a bedroom with my puppy in my lap. Well okay, the puppy is usually in my lap. I am on vacation, spending much needed time with my family. Still it was important to me not to miss a week with my podcast, so I am turning to some of my resources for today. I talk often about how important it is to plug positive messages into your head. To help give you an idea of where to find those, I am going to share with you three of my favorite podcasts and let them fill you with positivity while I join my family and create memories.Jennifer ZumbielFamilies That Stick Togather, Podcasthttps://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/families-that-stick-togather-trailer/id1518481703?i=1000477925917“This is REAL life by real families.

As women, we are proud to say that we take care of our husbands, our kids, our homes, our jobs, our churches and many other important things. But if we say we take care of ourselves we feel guilty and selfish. Today I not only give you permission to practice self-care, but I also encourage you to move it to the top of your priority list. You cannot pour from an empty cup, so you need to prioritize self-care to be able to care for others.Jennifer Zumbiel, of Togather Moments, interviewed me about self-care and how that fits into the Direction Not Perfection mentality. The fit is seamless. Getting proper nutrition and staying fit are a part of taking care of yourself. If you have barriers to self-care, they are also affecting your health. If guilt and fear of being selfish are keeping you from doing something for yourself, consider the question, “Is it helping or hindering my life?”, posed in Famous in Heaven and at Home by Michelle Meyers. If you can answer “helping” than it is important to make time for it in your day. You will know it is right if it “feels well with your soul”. The benefits you get from doing something for you, will ripple into the other parts of your life. You may not see results right away, but you will know it is worth fighting for. Guilt will go away if you can look back and see that the efforts you put into yourself have made you a better person. By taking care of yourself and making yourself the best you can be, you will have energy to pour onto others.That would give you the opportunity to be a great wife, a great mom, a great friend, a great career woman and/or a great daughter. But remember, you can’t be all of them in the same day. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. We are human, we need grace and love. By letting others know we aren’t perfect and could use their help, we give them a chance to fill their own cup by helping. Ask for help and enjoy the ripple.The word for the day is “permission”. Think about making it your “word of the year”. Give yourselfPermission to take care of yourself.Permission to ask for help.Permission to carve out time in the day for fitness or nutrition.Permission to be a role model for your kids so they understand self-care.Permission to not be perfect, or everything to everyone every day.Permission to slow down.Ask for help, go for a walk, listen to something fun or positive, give yourself 10 minutes each morning to organize your day and/or meditate. Take time for you. If guilt creeps in throw it back.

Eating right and getting appropriate exercise are important components of a healthy lifestyle. There is also a large emotional component. We can strengthen our emotional health by being intentional in our actions, present with our family and friends and by delving deeply into the connections in our lives.Getting past the surface level of relationships with those we care about can create soul filling moments that positively affect our health and well-being. Today I interviewed Jennifer Zumbiel, creator of Togather™, a game you play with your family at the dinner table that helps to create those special moments. Family members are encouraged to think beyond simple yes or no answers and dig deeper for meaningful responses. It can be surprising and insightful to hear your little one’s answers.Jennifer describes the game best on her website:“Togather™ is a game in the form of a book. The game features seven categories, each with fifteen stickers. All 105 stickers were designed to create moments where you complement each other, where you share your good deeds, and where you can't stop laughing about things around your house.WHY STICKERS?The passing of a physical book and peeling of stickers achieves 100% involvement. It creates feelings of togetherness and individuality knowing each person chose a unique sticker. Take turns going around the table reading your sticker and answering the question.”The importance of gathering your family together around the dinner table is a hot topic on the internet.
