Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jill discusses a simple exercise: list your fears, reflect on how they affect you, and determine if there's an action you can take. The stronger my relationship with God gets, the more I feel attacked by anxiety, depression, and fear. As a believer, how can I combat this? My friend's husband continues to be unfaithful, but she wants to wait until her 6-year-old graduates high school before leaving him. How can I help her?

Caller Questions & Discussion: JJ discusses the story in Exodus 18 where Moses' father-in-law, Jethro, advises Moses to delegate his responsibilities instead of handling everything alone.

What should I do if my pastor is telling me I have to stay in my marriage even though we're unhappy and don't like each other?

Caller Questions & More: Dr. Sheri discusses betrayal blindness and how pornography can be like a gateway drug that can lead to even worse things. Do I get out of my marriage? My husband and I have lived like roommates for the last 20 years, even after we've seen three counselors. I want to be a life-giver, but I'm blind and live in a nursing home. How can I help people here? How can I stop being affected by profanity? I struggle when I hear curse words because I feel cursing is sinful.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jill shares that, like the Titanic, which received multiple warnings to turn back, we can miss the warning signs people in our lives send. How can we help our 14-year-old granddaughter who has an autoimmune disease? She struggles with suicidal thoughts and is already seeing a counselor. My 12-year-old granddaughter disclosed that she was sexually abused by her brother and is engaging in self-harm. What steps should we take? How do I connect with my 18-year-old son who does well at school but isolates himself at home and emotionally shuts me out? I saw handwriting on the ceiling of my hotel room that said, “I love you,” but when I looked again, it was gone. Could that have been God?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Alice discusses how to overcome unhealthy habits, attitudes or behaviors; confession is the key. Is my friend doing the right thing by divorcing her husband of nearly 14 years? He has been in a long-term relationship with another woman and doesn’t contribute to the household finances. After enduring several narcissistic, abusive relationships, I'm now enjoying being alone since my children are grown. Is this normal, or is it just a season of life?

What does healing from spiritual and sexual abuse look like? I struggled with same-sex attraction and confided in a man I dated, who ultimately abused me. I was sexually abused by my father, and it’s like my mom blamed me. How can I navigate this difficult relationship with her?

My firstborn daughter died from fentanyl five years ago, and I'm still in complete shock. How can I cope? My mom says she won't attend my daughter's Quinceañera if we play secular dance music. What's the best way to handle this? What should I do if my 35-year-old daughter struggles with serious mental health challenges and even threw a plate at me? How can I motivate my aging father?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Henry Cloud shares the biggest lesson he's learned from decades as an acclaimed psychologist, author, and leadership expert. Am I making the right decision to leave my husband of six years? He is a pastor but refuses to share his finances or provide financial support. My husband of 36 years is a high-functioning alcoholic. I tried to leave, but it caused constant conflict—how do I stop letting him push my buttons? I'm in a friendship with a Christian man who kisses me on the lips, and we give each other massages, but I want a committed relationship. Should I go no contact and move on?

Men are important. Sure, they might be a headache sometimes (who isn't?) but maleness and manhood aren't diseases - they're a vital part of the purpose and plan that God has for His creation. This week we revisit an episode from early 2022 about the importance of encouraging men and the importance of men being men.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jim discusses why parents need to allow their adult children to learn through natural consequences and be careful not to enable them. My husband asked for a divorce the day before Thanksgiving, and it scares me that his family might turn my kids against me. What should my next step be to connect with a woman in my Bible study who has anxiety? I asked her to go out to eat, but she canceled. My daughter is divorced from an abusive marriage, and she has recently been swept off her feet by a man who is here on a work visa. As a dad, what is my role? What is the next step after I had an affair 25 years ago that my husband keeps bringing up?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Alice discusses common reasons marriages decay, with a focus on physical intimacy. How do I enjoy being close to my husband again when his anger and yelling make me withdraw from physical intimacy? I was married for 20 years, and my ex-husband said he was never physically attracted to me. Why would someone marry a spouse they aren't attracted to? I believe my family may be involved with a harmful organization, and someone broke into my storage unit. I contacted the FBI, but nothing happened; what should I do next?

Joey was self-conscious at home yesterday because people were working in his crawlsapce. He didn’t want to bother them by being loud.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Henry Cloud discusses his personal journey of faith and how the science of psychology affirms the truth of the Bible. My 26-year-old son with Asperger's lives with me after leaving the Army and often reacts strongly to what others say. His siblings want me to create a contract with him; how should I respond? My adult son struggles with alcohol and possibly Adderall. He becomes angry when I confront him. Is this my responsibility, or is it something he and his wife need to address? How do I help my 13-year-old son? His father is trying to coerce him into living with him, and my son has colitis and has said he doesn't deserve to live.

THE TOWNSEND PLAN AND THE BREAK WITH FATHER COUGHLIN Colleague David Pietrusza. Francis Townsend proposes a popular plan to give the elderly $200 a month, pressuring Roosevelt—who disliked the "dole"—to introduce Social Security. Meanwhile, the radio priest Father Coughlin turns against FDR after feeling brushed off by the administration. Coughlin joins forces with Townsend and Gerald L.K. Smith to form a third-party challenge. A tense six-hour meeting at Hyde Park between Roosevelt and Coughlin, arranged by Joseph Kennedy, fails to repair the relationship. Consequently, Coughlin uses his massive radio platform to wage war against the President during the election season. NUMBER 31936 HUNGARY

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jacqui explains why it's important to read Scripture for yourself; don’t let your Bible understanding come from the pulpit only. My husband and I have been living in separate rooms for 20 years, and I'm in recovery. How should I handle him being constantly angry at me? My brother has become a hoarder and has been scammed out of $400,000. What can I do to help him? I'm providing financially for my wife and want to make her happy, but she has served me divorce papers. Should I stop providing?

Sponsored by EasyDNS [https://easydns.com/NotOnRecord](https://easydns.com/NotOnRecord) How should courts treat an accused person's post-offence behaviour apologies, emotional reactions, “weird” texts, or even what looks like a confession without turning normal human messiness into “consciousness of guilt”? Joseph, Diana, and the crew break down the guardrails around after-the-fact conduct and why context is everything, especially in sexual assault cases. They walk through three fresh decisions: Townsend (2025 BCCA 459) on the danger of leaping to guilt from a volatile reaction (and the appellate correction when alternative explanations weren't properly weighed), JA (2025 ONSC 4531) on how chaotic teen/young-adult texting can be misread as admissions when there's no clear denial, and PG (2025 ONSC 7018) the “Godly Conduct Agreement” case where highly religious language that sounds like a confession is ultimately understood as moral guilt and inner turmoil, not proof beyond a reasonable doubt. The through-line: if you don't rigorously test other plausible explanations, post-offence conduct becomes a shortcut to wrongful inferences.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Laura discusses why love is free, but trust must be earned. What are the three key steps to rebuild trust after someone has hurt us? What are some practical tips for navigating parenting in a blended family? Our young adult daughters are struggling to begin launching into adulthood.

In part two of this two-part episode, James continues the conversation with Blake Townsend by focusing on real-world application and lived experience.

Preacher Man was learning about the importance of "quietness" way back in October of 2021 and the musing he and Townsend shared about the topic became one of the most listened-to episodes of them all. Life is loud - but God calls us to find places of quiet so that we can focus on hearing that "still, small voice." How quiet is your life?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jill explains why John Ortberg's book Steps: A Guide to Transforming Your Life When Willpower Isn’t Enough is a helpful reminder that the 12 Steps originated from the Bible and within a church community. I see how my mom was, and I don't want to be like her. What do you recommend I do to reconnect with my husband if he thinks I'm a vacillator? I'm in my 60s, engaged, and want to do thorough premarital counseling, but my fiancé wants to move through it quickly.” My 7-year-old grandson has been touching his cousin inappropriately. My daughter is very defensive and lets him do what he wants—what should I do? What is wrong with me that I can't stand up for myself with my boss and my boyfriend? My twin sister says she would never put up with what I put up with. The foster son I raised has moved to Texas, and it's been an adjustment for me.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Alice explains responses like “You're so sensitive” can be like poison ivy for a relationship because it comes across as defensive. I'm from a country where arranged marriages are common, and I married a man and moved to America. Am I wrong if I started seeing someone else while we were separated and want a divorce? Is it wrong to send money each month to my ungrateful brother? He was codependent with my mom and then deported to another country. After my mom revealed she was sexually abused and became pregnant with me, I lost all respect for my dad. As a Christian, how should I navigate this? My 8-year-old granddaughter with severe anxiety believes she's going to hell because she hit her mom. What can I do? I used drugs since I was 8 years old, but I found Christ and walked away from drugs last August!

Caller Questions & Discussion: Becky shares that there's power in the story you tell yourself, but it can keep you stuck. I got married despite my mentors telling me not to, and my husband has anger issues and a hard time staying employed; how do I do this day in and day out? I walked in on my wife of 10yrs talking to a man on the phone, and I believe she's cheating. Is this grounds for divorce? How do I learn to trust my current husband if my first husband was addicted to porn? I don't know how to trust again.

Your mentality sets the tone for your entire school. In this episode, Chip and Glyn Ann break down why leadership isn't about motivation or hype. It's actually about discipline, ownership, and choosing strength in how you think and speak. A victim mindset spreads fast, kills momentum, and shows up through excuses and complaints. They share how to train your mind like a muscle, guard your words, and lead with clarity instead of emotion. If you want a stronger culture and better leadership, it starts with mentality.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Marc discusses how we all have emotional blind spots and why becoming defensive can block personal growth. My husband of 10yrs has struggled with a porn addiction that has escalated to massage parlors and voyeuristic behavior. We have young children—should I leave my marriage? I believe my wife shows narcissistic traits, and it feels like everything I do is wrong. How do I deal with a controlling spouse? I've been diagnosed with brain delirium and have intense anxiety. Could my anxiety be related to PTSD?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jacqui explains how to pray and why your relationship with God matters. My daughter has asked me not to interact with my grandsons when they are with their father. Do I need to comply with her wishes? I recently discovered that my daughter was sexually abused by my son, beginning when she was 5 years old. Where do I even start? What does ‘one flesh' in marriage really mean? Does it mean two individuals working together as a team, or does it mean the husband makes all the decisions? My accountant wants to borrow $1,000 from me and keep it a secret. What should I do?

In part one of this two-part episode, James sits down with Blake Townsend to discuss long-range thinking, financial control, and the timeless lessons from Nelson Nash. They explore why short-term thinking creates stress and why simplicity and control matter over time.

It was 2020 - a year that may just have changed American culture more than any other year in the 250 that the country's been around. And folks were FUSSING. Masks, toilet paper, the cost of food... it was driving us all crazy. But, just a day before Preacher Man's birthday, it also provided a good opportunity for us to think about the things that were occupying our thoughts and conversations. An episode about Gossip - that's what this is.Got a question you want answered or a topic you'd like to hear Townsend andPreacher Man muse on?

Caller Questions & Discussion: JJ discusses how healthy relationships require personal responsibility and what each person must bring to the table in order to “live at peace with everyone” (Romans 12:18). My husband believes our 28-year-old son who lives at home is not managing his spending well and needs to take responsibility, but I don't agree. My 70-year-old husband is on his phone from morning until 2 a.m. and won't help around the house; what advice do you have? I struggle to maintain boundaries with women, and it may have contributed to my wife divorcing me; have you seen this before? I quit drinking alcohol last year because of my wife, but over time what I've been viewing online has repeatedly damaged my marriage.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Sheri discusses why we should offer words of affirmation to those around us. It's really important to me to stand up for what I believe is right, but I received backlash after attending an event and speaking up. Should I help my daughter and son-in-law's marriage? My son-in-law says she is showing symptoms of borderline personality disorder, similar to my ex-wife. I can't let go of the feeling that it was my fault my 22-year-old son died by suicide in 2011. I live daily with the belief that I passed on my depression, anxiety, schizophrenia, and bipolar disorder.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Becky discusses Jehoshaphat and how God gives you the strength to fulfill your calling, but not God's work. What are your thoughts on a boy under age 6 years old who wants to wear a princess dress at his cousin's house and asks to put on makeup for play? How can I help my 27-year-old son find a stable job? He is living at home and has a felony record. I joined a church and told the pastor I wanted to get involved in outreach, but I haven't heard back. Can a therapist help discern the truth in a marriage? I'm navigating a difficult marriage and recently lost my mom.

In the first episode of 2026, Heather sits down with betrayal coach Jennifer Townsend, founder of Happily Even After, to talk about what happens when trust is shattered by infidelity, emotional affairs, or pornography betrayal. Jennifer shares pieces of her own story, why betrayal feels uniquely traumatic, and what early healing actually requires—compassion, nervous system regulation, safe support, and tiny doable steps. Whether someone chooses to rebuild or leave, this conversation offers clarity, hope, and a path forward that doesn't require abandoning yourself.

Caller Questions & Discussion: Marc discusses how to stop reacting and learn to start responding. How do you get your adult voice, like Marc talks about in Understanding Your Attachment Style? My parents never modeled it. How do I find connection after my sister was murdered? I’ve thought about suicide and think I should’ve been shot instead of her. I'm almost 60 years old and have such severe anxiety that I think I'm going to be put away; can you give me some direction?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jacqui reminds us that the divisions in our churches are not as God intended. My adult son believes whatever his narcissistic father tells him—should I tell my son the truth? This is my third marriage, and my husband threatens to leave whenever we get into an explosive argument—how do I handle it? Both of my parents tried to kill me; how does this childhood trauma affect me today as an adult?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Dr. Jill discusses a few words to use instead of “resolutions” and notes that it's healthy to pause at this time of year to reflect. My daughter was a victim of sex trafficking at 14 years old and ten years later said she was pregnant, but we never saw proof. How can I stop caring so much about my adult daughter? She got involved with a man, ended up in jail, and now she and her son live with us. I am the mother of eight adult children who had a narcissistic father; what can I do to heal and renew my relationship with them? I'm in my 20s and struggling with a pornography addiction; what kind of help do I need?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Becky explains why she considers today “Mat Day” and why we must stop making excuses and pick up our mats and walk if we want to be well (John 5). How do I handle not being able to share community bread during communion at my new church? I sent my niece's husband to Every Man's Battle a year ago, and he came back a changed man! My wife hasn’t been intimate with me for 5 years; how do I deal with my anger and bitterness in a sexless marriage? Can someone who is a narcissist be truly saved?

Caller Questions & Discussion: Becky challenges us in the New Year to reduce the amount of time to get out of a bad state of mind with help from Ephesians 4. Should I separate from my husband to overcome my unforgiveness? My husband left a month ago; what can I do if he blames me and doesn’t like confrontation? How can I help my daughter-in-law? My son is a narcissist and verbally abusive to her.

In this episode, Maggie writes… “It's exciting to know that I can dive deep into another human being and never touch bottom. I will never know everything there is to know. If I'm lucky, I'll get to spend many years with the people I love, learning as much as I can, and watching them grow and change, and being surprised and delighted by them! If I'm lucky, I'll continue to change, too, and the people who love me will be surprised and delighted by those changes.”Celebrate the power of poems with a gift to The Slowdown today.

Description:Today's guest is someone who instantly made an impression on Jen when they met at a recent Hello Sunshine event in LosAngeles, when she moderated a Shine Away panel with Jen and beloved 9010 star and recent For the Love guest, Jennie Garth. Within five minutes Jen thought, “Okay… she's one of us.” Warm, sharp, steady — Kanika Chadda-Gupta has this grounding presence that makes a whole room exhale. An award-winning former CNN journalist and producer, Kanika built a thriving career in television news before motherhood rerouted her life in the most profound way. Born in India and raised in the U.S., her story is braided with themes so many of us know intimately: immigration and bicultural identity, the expectations women inherit, the invisible labor we carry, and the endless negotiation between ambition, caregiving, and our own becoming. Today, Kanika is the creator and host of the beloved Total Mom Sense podcast, where she distills her lived experience — raising children while caring for aging parents, navigating mental and emotional load, reinventing purpose in midlife — into practical wisdom for women who are doing it all and feeling all of it. In this conversation, we talk about what happens when life asks us to reevaluate our pace, our priorities, and the stories we've been handed about success. We discuss staying rooted inside seasons of huge responsibility, finding yourself in the middle of caregiving, and reclaiming a sense of agency and identity in motherhood and beyond. If you've ever felt stretched thin between generations, pulled in every direction, or unsure how to follow your own calling while caring for everyone else — Kanika's clarity and compassion will feel like a deep breath. This one's for all of us standing at the intersection of who we were, who we are, and who we're still becoming. Thought-provoking Quotes: "I like getting the gold star from all of my teachers. I did all the AP classes. I hung out with my teachers at lunchtime. We had open lunch, and it was like you could go to McDonald's, or you could go across the street to the pizza place. But I would go sit with Ms. Townsend, my biology teacher, and just kick it.” – Kanika Chadda-Gupta "It may be, the only headlights that you see heading to the eye of the storm are the first responders and the reporters. And I thought, I want to be in the eye of the storm. I belong here. I need to be here. I need to prove myself. And so then I stayed.” – Kanika Chadda-Gupta "I was most surprised by how your kids will make you face your childhood trauma head on. My dad and I get along great now, but when we were younger, he would say things that really just shot my self-esteem. And those are the first things that come up when my kids do something wrong and I'm like, wow, I gotta reframe." – Kanika Chadda-Gupta Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Hello Sunshine Shine Away Conference 2025 – https://shineaway.hello-sunshine.com/event/eddb3575-ec80-4812-a371-354c900d7cbf/summary Jim Gaffigan, comedian – https://www.jimgaffigan.com/ Mom Brain with Hilaria Baldwin and Daphne Oz - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/mom-brain/id1438292826 Guest's Links: Website - https://kanikachaddagupta.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/kanikachaddagupta/ Twitter - https://x.com/KanikaChadda Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/kanikachaddagupta/ Youtube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCgkOq_AmLsvu6YJsKglQvSw TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@kanikachaddagupta?lang=en Pinterest - https://www.pinterest.com/kanikachaddagupta/ Podcast - https://kanikachaddagupta.com/podcast/ Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
