Parenting a child who constantly melts down—even when you've tried every gentle parenting tip out there—can leave you exhausted and doubting yourself.You're doing your best to be calm and validating, yet you still feel like you're walking on eggshells. You're not alone. The truth is, gentle parenting isn't enough on its own—and understanding whycan completely change your family dynamic.Let's break down what gentle parenting gets right, what it misses, and how to help your child truly regulate and thrive. Learn more about why empathy without boundaries backfires, what “Regulate, Connect, Correct” really means, and how to shift from over-validation to true emotional safety.Why Doesn't Gentle Parenting Always Work?Gentle parenting promotes empathy, validation, and connection instead of harsh punishment. That's beautiful in theory—but many parents discover it's not enough in real life.Here's why: Validation alone doesn't calm a dysregulated brain.Kids may feel heard, but not necessarily safe.A dysregulated nervous system can't learn, connect, or cooperate.Empathy without boundaries often fuels anxiety and chaos.When kids stay stuck in big emotions, they become dependent on constant reassurance instead of learning self-regulation. That's when parents start feeling drained and walking on eggshells.

In this episode of Parenting Understood, we are joined by Dr. Debbie Raphael, a child and adult psychiatrist, to discuss how her personal experiences as a parent intertwine with her professional insights. Dr. Raphael shares how becoming a mother during her child psychiatry fellowship deepened her understanding of validation, attunement, and mentalization—skills that foster healthy emotional development in children. She explains how parents' ability to validate their child's feelings builds self-trust and resilience from early childhood through adolescence. The conversation also explores the importance of community support, self-care, and maintaining balance between empathy and boundaries. Dr. Raphael introduces her forthcoming book, which integrates clinical research and lived experience to guide parents in creating positive childhood experiences that buffer against stress and adversity. We reflect on how nurturing connection—both within families and communities—supports mental health across generations.

Beauty School Bobbi interviews Anna Manukyan, a prominent figure in the beauty industry known for her focus on financial education for beauty professionals. Anna shares her journey from being an immigrant to becoming a successful educator and advocate for financial literacy in the beauty sector. The conversation explores the importance of understanding finances, overcoming familial expectations, and creating opportunities within the beauty industry. Anna emphasizes the need for beauty professionals to start investing early and to shift their mindset from consumers to investors, providing practical steps to begin their financial journey. In this conversation, Anna Manukyan and Beauty School Bobbi discuss the evolving landscape of financial literacy within the beauty industry. They emphasize the importance of early investment, the changing perceptions of financial success in beauty careers, and the need for better education and resources for beauty professionals. Anna shares insights on how to navigate financial challenges, the significance of starting early, and the transformative moments that can arise from financial education. The discussion highlights the optimism for future beauty professionals and the importance of creating a supportive environment for financial growth.   Takeaways Anna's immigrant background shaped her work ethic and drive. The beauty industry lacks financial education for professionals. Many beauty professionals struggle with managing their finances. Investing early is crucial for building wealth. Financial conversations are often absent in immigrant families. Creating opportunities in the beauty industry is essential. Success in beauty can come from unexpected paths. Validation from family can be a powerful motivator. The beauty industry offers diverse career paths. Establishing financial systems leads to long-term success. Your money is kind of, I'm a big fan of like sneaky investing. Start as soon as you can, the earlier the better. The mindset around money needs to change in the beauty industry. More than half of Americans are financially illiterate. $6.60 a day can lead to almost half a million dollars in 30 years. The longer you're in the beauty industry, the less money you make. Stay educated and charge accordingly as a business owner. Beauty school students have a unique opportunity to build wealth. It's never too late to start planning for your future. Financial principles don't change, regardless of your experience level.   Chapters 00:00 Introduction to Beauty and Professionalism 02:14 Anna's Journey into the Beauty Industry 05:57 The Importance of Financial Education in Beauty 10:06 Overcoming Family Expectations and Finding Your Path 12:33 Creating Opportunities in the Beauty Industry 16:14 Understanding Wealth and Financial Planning 23:28 Starting Your Financial Journey 24:56 Sneaky Investing for Financial Growth 25:30 Changing Perceptions in the Beauty Industry 26:14 The Importance of Financial Literacy 28:02 Starting Early: The Key to Financial Success 31:18 Navigating Financial Challenges in the Beauty Industry 32:22 Awareness and Opportunities in Beauty Careers 34:14 The Evolving Landscape of Beauty Education 38:57 Empowering Future Beauty Professionals 41:57 Transformative Moments in Financial Education 44:33 Resources for Financial Mastery in Beauty   www.beautyschoolbobbi.com www.beautyandstylenetwork.com   Follow Beauty and Style Network: @beautystylenet Beauty School Bobbi: @beautyschoolbobbi Anna Manukyan: @amanukyan

Rebecca Matchett is a serial entrepreneur, fashion innovator, and now tech founder who's built her career around solving real-world problems. From co-founding Alice + Olivia to developing a patented women's sizing system called TrioFit, Rebecca has consistently combined creativity and practicality to build impactful businesses. Now, she's channeling that same drive into Synchrony—a new social app designed to help neurodivergent adults connect and combat loneliness in meaningful ways. On this episode we talk about: How Rebecca transitioned from fashion and retail into tech entrepreneurship The story behind founding Alice + Olivia and what she learned about branding and innovation Why ideas alone aren't enough—and how to validate your market before launching The challenges and benefits of self-funding vs. outside investment How Synchrony is using technology to address the loneliness epidemic among neurodivergent adults Top 3 Takeaways Great businesses start by solving problems you truly understand—personal experience is a powerful indicator of market need. Validation matters more than inspiration. Don't build before you know who actually wants your product. Bootstrapping gives you control, focus, and creative freedom that investors often limit. Notable Quotes “Ideas are easy. Execution and validation are what separate entrepreneurs from dreamers.” “When you solve a problem for yourself, you're often solving it for thousands of others.” “Connection is the most human need we have—and we're building a tool to make that accessible again.” Learn more about your ad choices.

Text us!

Building the right thing is hard. Building the wrong thing is easy and costly. In this episode, Jason Sparks, Principal Product Manager at ReUp Education, dives deep into the discipline of continuous validation inside enterprise environments. From managing stakeholder pressure to proactively engaging customers in discovery, Jason shares battle-tested approaches for avoiding the classic trap of solution-first thinking.Chapters0:00 – The risk of unvalidated assumptions1:02 – Meet Jason Sparks and his mission at ReUp3:02 – From college dropout to product leader5:19 – Product-market fit inside the enterprise6:03 – Why most ideas don't need building8:10 – Misalignment: wrong product, wrong market10:05 – Executive interference and assumption management12:33 – Validation is not a one-off14:44 – Continuous discovery in practice15:38 – How to validate enterprise product ideas17:02 – Story decks, user interviews and field testing19:11 – Grading feedback and customer fit21:11 – The danger of over-friendly users23:08 – The power of early champions25:21 – Preparing for and running discovery sessions27:35 – Value testing and competitor awareness29:08 – When to walk away from the wrong customer31:17 – What happens after the meetings33:30 – The role of AI in user research35:46 – What Jason would do differently todayWhat you'll learn from Jason— Validation should be continuous: One round of user feedback isn't enough. Real product-market fit evolves through repeated conversations and iteration.— Assumptions must be challenged: Build a culture where being proven wrong is celebrated, not feared.— Don't let leadership derail discovery: Product managers must set boundaries and bring clarity on the problem space before execution begins.— Grading users is as critical as grading feedback: Identify the right customers to listen to—being nice isn't the same as being the right fit.— Use discovery decks to guide conversations: Jason uses bold assumptions, interactive sessions, and immediate iteration to refine ideas quickly.— Tech accelerates, but doesn't replace, human insight: AI tools for sentiment and semantic analysis are powerful but should supplement—not substitute—real human interaction.Featured Links:We're taking Community Questions for The Product Experience podcast.Got a burning product question for Lily, Randy, or an upcoming guest?

There are a few conversations that stop me in my tracks, and this was one of them. Sitting across from Tim and Demi-Leigh Tebow, I wasn't just speaking to a Heisman Trophy winner and a former Miss Universe. I was sitting with two people who live out their faith with more authenticity, humility, and conviction than almost anyone I've ever met. What struck me most is how both of them, despite the platforms they've been given, have had to wrestle with identity, comparison, loss, and purpose, just like the rest of us. Tim shared the heart behind his new book Look Again and what it really means to understand your worth through God's eyes, not the world's. When he said, “We use people and value things, instead of valuing people and using things,” it hit me hard. He reminded us that every single human being carries the image of God, that you're not just bearing His image, you are His image. You are royalty. That truth changes how you see yourself and how you see others. Demi opened up about her journey from wearing the Miss Universe crown to realizing that she had attached her identity to it and the freedom she found when she handed it back. She also shared the raw pain of losing her father just days before our conversation and how she's choosing faith in the middle of heartbreak. Her story is one of strength, surrender, and trust, choosing not to ask “Why?” but “Where?” Where is God working this together for good? That perspective will change how you face every challenge in your own life. We also talked about something that's destroying people quietly, comparison. Tim reminded us that comparison kills joy. You can't be grateful and envious at the same time. And Demi shared her own powerful insight: when you scroll through social media, you're often letting people who don't love you speak into your life. It's time to take back that space and fill it with truth. And perhaps most moving of all, we dove into the heart of their work through the Tim Tebow Foundation, serving the most vulnerable around the world. From survivors of human trafficking to children with special needs, they're proof that when you stop and see people the way God does, everything changes. You don't need a big platform to make a difference, you just need a willing heart. Key Takeaways: How to find your true identity and worth through God's eyes Why comparison kills joy and how to break free from it How to find hope and peace in the middle of loss The difference between bearing God's image and being His image How small acts of compassion can create massive change in someone's life This is one of those conversations you'll feel deep in your soul. If you've ever doubted your worth, questioned your faith, or wondered if God still sees you, this one's for you. Max out your life. Also don't miss out on MAXOUT2026: Once a year, I open my home for an intimate one-day experience unlike anything else I do. This year, I'm making it even smaller, just 12 to 15 people.

This interview surprised me. I tried to enter it with an open heart, and didn't too too much pre-research that might sway my questions or energy toward Paul.I was honestly blown away by Paul's authenticity, the data behind why people cheat, how we can be better partners to avoid cheating, and how Ashley Madison provides a discreet platform so you're not boinking your fellow office workers and ruining your family's life.In this episode of The Open Bedroom Podcast, I talk with Paul Keable, Chief Strategy Officer at Ashley Madison, about the realities of sex, dating, and non-monogamy.

If you're curious as to whether you have any stored emotions or trauma that might be causing your illness, preventing you from achieving your goals, or even just showing up as the best, authentic version of yourself, I invite you to take my free Stored Emotions and Trauma QuizThat person isn't copying you. They're showing you something you haven't owned yet.In this episode, I delve into the distinction between shadow projection and mirror reflection, and why it matters for anyone who aspires to lead, heal, or simply act with greater integrity. We unpack the subtle ways projection hides in plain sight, how it sneaks into your reactions, and why it's often rooted in the parts of yourself you've pushed away.This isn't about blaming or fixing. It's about awareness, learning to recognize when your judgments are really mirrors, when your triggers are teachers, and when it's time to take back your power from what you've projected. Sometimes the hardest work isn't seeing others clearly, but seeing yourself without distortion. Once you start catching your own projections, everything changes, especially your peace.You'll Learn:[00:00] Introduction[01:48] What shadow projection really means and how it hides behind judgment[05:36] Why emotionally “informed” people often project the most without realizing it[07:12] The real reason others trigger you, and what it reveals about your inner work[09:45] How mirror reflection helps you see your strengths and wounds more clearly[11:33] The subtle ways wanting validation or being “seen” can expose hidden shadows[13:02] What feeling “not enough” actually signals about self-worth and authenticity[15:21] Why overpraising others can be just as revealing as criticism[18:47] The difference between constructive feedback and projection in disguise[21:40] How to spot, own, and integrate your projections so you stop giving away your peaceFind More From Dr. Stephanie Davis:Dr. Stephanie Davis | WebsiteQuantum Rx | InstagramQuantum Rx | Skool

Alicia shares an interesting perspective after listening to a podcast that tests the performance behind someone who is being validated vs no validation provided. ALSO LET'S GET LOUD 2026 IS ALREADY ON SALE! AS WELL AS THE AFTER PARTY!   

We've all done it - spent money we didn't plan to spend on something we didn't really need. As we continue our Over It: When Enough is Enough series, we get real about overspending. It's easy to blame overspending on not having enough money - but it's not. We spend for all sorts of reasons we don't usually admit. Comfort. Control. Validation. And while some purchases bring real joy, most are nothing more than temporary hits of dopamine, pulling focus from our goals, draining our bank account, and stealing our peace of mind. Every swipe, every click, every impulse purchase isn't just spending money — it's a choice about where our attention, energy, and resources go. It's time to be honest about how we're spending and why we've stopped hesitating before handing over that card. This isn't about needing more money - it's about paying attention to what we're really chasing when we spend it

Today, we feature a conversation with Katherine Lazar, a mum who has experienced her first child's death through stillbirth. About this week's guestKatherine Lazar currently lives in Atlanta, GA in the US and is married to the love of her life, Brody's dad, Michael. When she was 37 weeks pregnant, her precious son died and was stillborn. The sorrow following his death almost killed her. Conversations with other loss moms saved her. She decided to record them and put them out for others to hear. If they helped her feel less alone, maybe they could help others. She's so proud to have created this in Brody's honor and to give other mothers a platform to talk about their babies. At the time of recording this episode, they were expecting their second child, and navigating the world of pregnancy after loss is a whole new battle. However, Katherine has spent a lot of time putting in the work with grief therapy & trauma recovery, surrounding herself with good people, having a great support system, and amazing doctors this time around. She feels ready for whatever comes her way. She misses her son every day and knows that she will see him again someday. Until then, she will continue to tell her story, be very open about her journey, and help other loss mothers find light in the dark.Support the show

Dr. Caroline Fleck shares with Gabby Reece the #1 communication skill from psychology (DBT) you need to master: VALIDATION. Learn how this essential relationship tool will transform your marriage, parenting, and friendships. The psychologist & author of Validation breaks down the exact steps to build deep connection, manage conflict, and achieve emotional regulation. In this powerful episode of The Gabby Reece Show, host Gabby Reece and Dr. Caroline Fleck, a clinical psychologist and author of the book Validation: How the skillset that revolutionized psychology will transform your relationship, increase your influence, and change your life, discuss the profound impact of true validation. Validation is more than just listening or feeling empathy; it is a communication skill that must be mastered to truly convey understanding and acceptance. Dr. Fleck reveals why this essential skill is typically only taught in advanced doctoral psychology programs (Dialectical Behavior Therapy or DBT) and how you can apply it to your everyday life to build stronger bonds and reduce conflict. Key Takeaways You'll Learn: The crucial difference between "problem-solving" and "validation" in real-life scenarios, especially with children. The six levels of validation (the "validation ladder") and how to use them to instantly improve your communication. Practical strategies for managing intense emotions and conflict using DBT's TIP skills (Temperature, Intense Exercise, Paced Breathing). The power of a genuine apology, even as a parent, to model the behavior you want your kids to learn. How to disclose your own experience to connect without overshadowing the other person's pain (the "flip it back" technique). Don't miss these evidence-based strategies for better communication and personal transformation!
