Ever stood at your own success party and talked people OUT of celebrating you? That's exactly what I did at my own book launch, paralyzed by a merciless inner critic that had me rewriting the same book SIX times over SEVEN years. In this raw and revealing episode, I pull back the curtain on my battle with self-criticism and share the exact moment I realized my inner critic (whom I named "Esmeralda") was sabotaging my leadership and creative voice. Even after coaching C-suite executives at Fortune 200 companies, that voice telling me "I'm not good enough" still tried to drown out my achievements. The journey to authentic leadership isn't about silencing your critic forever—it's about recognizing it and moving forward anyway. In this episode, we cover:Why your inner critic gets loudest right before your most important leadership moments, and the counterintuitive approach that turns down its volumeMy embarrassing confession about what I said to guests at my own book launch party (and how it reveals the sneaky way imposter feelings show up even after achieving success)The simple naming technique that instantly creates distance between you and your critical inner voiceHow trying to avoid criticism actually smothers your authentic leadership voice and creative expressionThe question I ask myself whenever self-doubt creeps in that instantly reconnects me with my leadership purpose and silences criticismConnect with me on LinkedIn or join my monthly newsletter for exclusive strategies that go beyond what we cover in the podcast—because your leadership journey matters, especially when your voice shakes.About the Leadership Presence podcastLeadership Presence | Mastering the Inner Work of Leadership is your guide to leading with less ego and more soul.

I'm going on tour! Come see The School of Greatness LIVE in person!Get my new book Make Money Easy here!Most of us unknowingly live under what family therapy expert Jerry Wise calls "the family trance" – a powerful force that shapes our identity without our awareness. After 45 years helping thousands break free from dysfunctional family patterns, Jerry reveals how our adult struggles often stem from inherited emotional programming that creates a "malignant normalcy" within us. Through our conversation, he shares the revolutionary concept of self-differentiation – the courageous process of separating your true self from your family's expectations while remaining emotionally connected. When Jerry states "whatever issues I leave unresolved, who gets to resolve them? My children," I realized this might be the most transformative conversation we've had about breaking generational patterns. His profound insight that "it's never too late to have a happy childhood" offers hope to anyone trapped in cycles of criticism, people-pleasing, or emotional reactivity that originated in their family system.Get Jerry's Free 84-Minute 'Self-Differentiation' TrainingGet more from Jerry on YouTubeIn this episode you will learn:Why criticizing yourself harshly is often your "family self" talking, not your authentic voiceHow to identify if you had narcissistic parents and what that means for your adult relationshipsThe three levels of resistance you'll face when changing family dynamics and how to overcome themWhy trying to change your parents is futile, but changing yourself transforms the entire systemThe difference between setting outer boundaries and the crucial inner boundaries needed for healingHow the "fantasy" of finally getting parental approval keeps many adults emotionally stuckWhy it's never too late to have a happy childhood through self-parenting and inner child workThe three core elements needed for lasting change: self-awareness, self-regulation, and self-differentiationFor more information go to https://www.lewishowes.com/1747For more Greatness text PODCAST to +1 (614) 350-3960More SOG episodes we think you'll love:Gabby Bernstein – greatness.lnk.to/1714SCJason Wilson – greatness.lnk.to/1725SCMel Robbins – greatness.lnk.to/1710SC Get more from Lewis!

amenpodcast.comIntroduction: The Two Ages in ScriptureThroughout the Bible, we see a consistent theme of two distinct ages:* The Present Age - characterized by rebellion, sin, and death* The Age to Come - characterized by God's rule and righteousnessAs Christians, we live in the tension between these two ages. Christ's death and resurrection have ushered in the age to come, yet we still experience the realities of the present age.Key Scripture: 1 Corinthians 2:6-7"We do, however, speak a wisdom among the mature but not a wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age who are coming to nothing. On the contrary, we speak God's hidden wisdom in a mystery, a wisdom God predestined before the ages for our glory."What is Spiritual Maturity?1. Spiritual maturity is not about physical age* Example: Samuel as a boy hearing God's voice (1 Samuel 3)* Contrast: Eli, physically mature but spiritually dull* Timothy being told, "Don't let anyone look down on you because you're young"2. Spiritual maturity is characterized by obedience* Moving from spiritual milk to solid food (Hebrews 5:14)* "The reason why Christians don't mature in the church is because they don't walk in obedience"* Growth happens when we do what God has told us to do3. Spiritual maturity means accepting reality* Recognizing we live in a fallen world* "Spiritual maturity is realizing I can't always get what I want"* Not being flustered when things don't go our way (like Esther, Ruth, and Mary)4. Spiritual maturity means responding to God's voice* Samuel's response: "Speak, for your servant is listening"* Answering God directly instead of always running to intermediaries* Jesus' sacrifice ensures we can hear God's voiceHow to Grow Spiritually* Recognize the age you belong to: You were born into the present age but born again into the age to come* Walk in obedience: Don't justify sin while expecting spiritual growth* Exercise faith: "Everything in your life requires faith"* Respond when God calls: Like Samuel, be quick to say "Here I am"* Accept your inability to control everything: Christianity isn't about controlling the world but about living faithfully within itThe Glory That Awaits* "A Christian's glory is that we might be like Christ"* God predestined this glory "before the ages" (1 Cor 2:7)* Jesus died so we could hear God's voice like Samuel did* In spiritual maturity, "there is nothing that the gates of hell will prevail over you"Closing ChallengeWhere is God asking you to mature, and you're not listening?Where is He saying, "just grow up"?What area of obedience is He calling you to embrace today?"Spiritual maturity is having the knowledge that I am not a part of this age. I'm a part of the age to come." This is a public episode. If you would like to discuss this with other subscribers or get access to bonus episodes, visit amenpodcast.substack.com

Send us a textI have been following a guy named David Bayer for some time now and have been greatly influenced by him. One of the many pieces of wisdom he shares about limiting beliefs is that when we have a core limiting belief that we can't seem to let go of, no matter how many tools we use, it's often because that belief is connected to a person. Specifically, it may be connected to a resentment toward that person. When I heard that, I had the epiphany that my core limiting belief is that there will never be enough, particularly when it comes to money. And this belief stems from experiences I had with my dad. This week's episode 292 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is about rediscovering love for my father- a journey through resentment and healing!In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I'm sharing my process of doing resentment and forgiveness inventories to uncover underlying resentments I was holding about my father and the reparenting work that came as a result of it - leading me to the realization of how much I truly loved my father as a child.

This year, so much of our national conversation has revolved around whether our Constitution should be amended to include an Indigenous Voice to Parliament. But outside of Oz, what is the rest of the world saying about us? With arguments from the 'Yes' and 'No' camps expected to rage right up until Saturday's referendum date, today we look at what other countries are saying about our debate on the Voice - in particular those with histories of colonisation. Furthermore, if the 'No' case is successful, what could repercussions regarding our Foreign Policy look like? In this extra episode of The Briefing, we hear an expert in Politics and International Relations at La Trobe University, Dr Bec Strating, to hear about what the data shows and what it could mean for Australia after the vote on the Voice.

I have a friend who is a famous online marketer. Last week he sent me an observation I found interesting. It occurred to me that you might find it interesting as well.“Now that targeting is pretty much dead on Facebook and Instagram, I have a theory that the rules of reach and frequency that have always applied to radio will also apply to social platforms as they shift away from micro-targeting and toward looking more like mass media.”[Frequency means repetition. – editor]And then he asked a question.“Can you remind me again what your magic formula is for reach and frequency when buying radio ads? I know this is a bit like someone asking me how to spell SEO, but this came up in a conversation I was having with a buddy the other day and I felt stupid that I couldn't remember it.”Happy to help. Here's what you're looking for:APE = Advertising Performance EquationShare of Voice x Impact Quotient = Share of MindShare of Mind x Personal Experience Factor = Share of MarketShare of Market x Market Potential = Sales Volume1.Share of Voice: How much of the noise in your category in your marketplace is your noise? (All media combined, including word of mouth)2.Impact Quotient: The average impact of a message in your category is 1.0. If your ads are 30% better than average, you score a 1.3. If your ads are 10 percent weaker than average, you score a 0.9 … the Impact of your message can accelerate or reduce your Share of Voice3.Share of Mind is the percentage of real estate you own in your category in the mind of the average customer.4.Personal Experience Factor is likewise measured with a 1.0 being, “exactly the experience your customer expected.” Anything above a 1.0 is a delight factor. Anything below a 1.0 is depth of disappointment. Online reviews are just measurements of a customer's Personal Experience Factor5.Share of Market is your sales volume as a percentage of the total sales available in your category, in your marketplace.For a message to enter Declarative Memory (mid-term memory – longer than Working Memory – but not yet Procedural Memory, which is involuntary, automatic recall,) a message should be repeated to the same individual at least 3 times within 7 night's sleep. Further research has lowered this number to as little as 2.5 repetitions per week.The more memorable the message, the less repetition is required. Therefore, the only way to beat the system (Google) and save money is to create messages that are highly memorable. NOTE: Any limited time offer with a call-to-action is erased from declarative memory when the “limited time” window is closed. This is why you cannot build a brand with Direct Response calls-to-action.To become a household word and enter long-term Procedural Memory, you need to hammer your message into the mind of your target at least 2.5 per week for at least 3 years. But even then, it will fade within 24 months after your ads disappear, assuming that your ads have only the average 1.0 Impact Quotient. But a message – or an experience – with a significantly higher Impact Quotient can enter Procedural Memory and become automatic, involuntary recall, with only a single repetition. PTSD is an example of this.The key to absolute category dominance is to elevate your Impact Quotient and Personal Experience Factor to numbers above 2.0.In other words, you've got to have awesome ads and deliver an amazing customer experience.But you already knew that.“This is perfect. Thank you. Have any of your partners tested APE in social ads (FB, IG, TikTok, etc.) to see if the numbers hold up? I would have to assume that Share of...

So one morning I'm at breakfast and I see a cute family, a mom, a dad, and a little boy. And I had noticed them the other day at breakfast and I actually had noticed them the evening before at dinner. We had landed at the same restaurant probably cuz the concierge always sends you to the same restaurant. Do you guys know that out there? Totally true. Totally true. And, The little boy is just being so well behaved. And I remember when my kids were little that it was really difficult in a restaurant to be kids. Kristina Supler: Oh, he has such anxiety going to a restaurant with these kids. Oh yeah. Susan Stone: Yeah. Talking to the mother, she there, she's fascinating. She was really lovely. Fa. They're from the UK and I said, I cannot believe how well behaved your son is. I remember when my kids were little and you know how well they're doing on this trip to Portugal. While it was a lovely romantic vacation for my hus, hubby and I. I didn't really see it as a place for Kristina Supler: kids families. Susan Stone: Yeah. I mean it was, there were a lot of family, but when, I think when my kids were little mm-hmm. They just wanted to splish splash at the pool. Do kid stuff. I did a lot of kid stuff and she said,I really believe that to raise children, they need to be bored and come up with their own creativity. And in theory, I play by that rule too. Kids need to engage in imaginative play. But Kristina, the kid's face was glued Kristina Supler: to a tablet, let me guess. Susan Stone: To a tablet. I'm like, I saw where you were going with this. Ah, that is not imaginative play. In my days, I would give my kids blank paper, not even coloring books. And some crayons at a restaurant and say, Keep yourself busy, dude. And then they didn't, they misbehaved, but that stuck with me. Sure. Kristina Supler: it's in this day and age when in any situation for kids, the minute there's like even a hint of misbehavior, you give them a device. And even for adults, if you think about it in an awkward situation, you have time to kill. What do we do? We immediately turn to our devices versus looking around us talking to a stranger. Looking at something, on, on the street. It's just, we are so into our devices, whether it's kids or adults. Susan Stone: Oh, how many times have you gone out to dinner with someone in their faces of, in their phone. And I've done it. And I'm not judging this parent because you know what? I didn't have that available when I raised my kids dad. Sure. Kristina Supler: And I just also, as a working mom, I just have, I just think about you have a long day. You wanna enjoy an evening out with your family, with your kids. You wanna have family time. And then something starts to unravel or someone's a little cranky, or who knows what the situation is. It's, I get it. Like it's easy to just say, here, honey. Okay. Look at my phone. Susan Stone: And so is the tablet, the older kid pacifier. Kristina Supler: Sure. Look at that. I think so. yes. The tablet is the modern day Passy. There you go. There you go. Susan Stone: There's your baby Bop. Or as Josh, I'm gonna embarrass you out there. He used to call him his baby ah. But why don't you introduce our guest. Kristina Supler: Sure. So today we are really happy to be talking with Andrew Fishman. and we're gonna talk. Hi Andrew. Andrew Fishman: Hello.

Today, what drew us to Andrew was an article that appeared in Psychology Today entitled, Why So Many Teens use Video Games to Meet others. And so this is a cool topic that we're gonna jump into. And again, Andrew, we're really happy to have you with us today. Welcome. Thank you again. Susan Stone: So let's kick it off. Your article, which I have right here with me. Why so many teens use video games to meet others. Your premise is that the video games have become the new mall where kids meet. Can you, yeah. Talk about this and elaborate a little more. Andrew Fishman: So kids really want to spend time with each other in person. But it's where can they go? They wanna hang out with each other in person. But they just there's nowhere to do it. When I was a kid, we had all sorts of places to go. That was 20 years ago. But all those places I looked at them, they're all closed, oh yeah. Susan Stone: Or you don't feel safe sending them. My dad used to drop me off at the mall. Kristina Supler: I was gonna say, and my day, it was Camelot music. We all went and hung music store. So I, there's not a lot of places. For kids to go, I'm saying kids, but teens, young adults and people's houses. Susan Stone: Why not mm-hmm. The basement. Andrew Fishman: Yeah. No, that's it. that's great. And that's one of the places that they have. I think part of the problem with, for my clients at least, is how do you get to those places? Mm-hmm. With both your parents now work. You're,and you don't have a car yet. You can't go to their, you can't go to somebody else's house. And a lot of the parents don't want their kids going anywhere during, on a school night, which makes a certain amount of sense, but that's now five sevenths of your week that you can't see other people. And so they're they come home on a Monday night and they're exhausted from school and they wanna see somebody else. They wanna talk to a peer. And their options are calling somebody on the phone, which nobody does, or they can,or they can text each other, which a lot of them do. Or they on, on Snapchat or something. Or they can have a long fun voice chat while sharing a game and that, so those, what they call third spaces, which is the place other than school or work or home, the malls, the bowling alleys, the churches, all sorts, the places we used to meet people. This has become their third place where you go home after school and you can go to a virtual third place and spend as much time with your friends as you want. And so it, it certainly makes sense that you would go there. Susan Stone: How do you talk to each other? Or are you just playing? Explain how it works to this. Kristina Supler: Are people who are in these online communities only talking about the video games? Are these people talking about, I don't know, favorite food sports team's life? Andrew Fishman: it depends on the game, but generally, yeah. People talk about all sorts of things when they're with friends. People talk about their day. They complain about teachers. They, do all the typical adolescent conversations and even if they're not, Talking about their lives outside of the games and they're just talking about it. I still think it's a positive experience. Susan Stone: Wait, are they talking or is it texting? Andrew Fishman: That's a, it's a good question. There's both. So some of the games, most games, if there's a multiplayer component, will have a text feature in the game. Some of them also have a voice chat, and there's also supplementary apps you can use. There's one that's really popular called Discord. It's a website and Yep. So it's for listeners, it's a website or app that you can use to communicate and build little virtual communities. I have, I, I met a few of them myself, and they're fun, but you, it also has a feature where you can just, make a group of friends and then set everybody up with a headset and then chat on this external app while playing a while, playing a game. Kristina Supler: Andrew, these online gaming communities,they're obviously extremely popular. Were they popular pre covid d or do you think Covid really caused the huge surge in, in the involvement of young people in these online communities? Andrew Fishman: Actually, I think I, they've always been popular. I think that it's certainly, there, there was definitely a surge. And I think a lot of the surge was people much older than adolescents where I, I wasn't always online talking to people that's ing about adults, Kristina Supler: I think. Andrew Fishman: Huh? Yeah. And so suddenly I was alone in my apartment. I just, I needed something to do. And I wasn't allowed to go outside for a lot of it. And so I could go to, somebody's virtual island in Animal Crossing and go run around and catch bugs there. And so that was just a nice way to spend time with other people. And so there was definitely a surge. I think the surge might have happened with our age kind of people though. Susan Stone: Can, is it limited to your own friend group or can strangers infiltrate? Is this state? Andrew Fishman: That's a really important point. So there are many people just talk to their friends. Some people only talk to the people on their team. If you're playing a team-based game, us versus them. And sometimes you're just open to anybody who's around. You can hear you talk and you can talk to them. They can talk to you. I don't like that. I don't like that. Right? And so and so that gets ugly really quickly. I hate that. I don't usually use it at all. Because as soon as I turn on a game, if I have what's called public chat on. There are slurs. There's derogatory comments made. There's ju offensive things said pretty quickly. I don't know that I've ever turned on and been turned on a game and really been happy with the conversation for the whole time. And so most of the time I just turn off the public chat option. Susan Stone: I'm gonna ask you a question, Kristina. Sure. And then I wanna know what the expert has to think. Would you allow your youngest is how old for our listening? Kristina Supler: almost 10. Susan Stone: Would you allow your 10 year old to play this type of game? And I'd like to know what Andrew thinks about what age is appropriate. Kristina Supler: Chatting and interacting with others. No. But Animal Crossing for example, is fairly benign. My son does play Animal Crossing and I watched it and it's a little animal game with the, the settings and the, age specification for, you know, the version we bought. But I mean, what do you think on that, Andrew? In terms of kids, let's say grade school, third, fourth, fifth, even sixth grade, and in these online games with the community interaction component in chatting? Susan Stone: Yeah. What age should you, what age is recommended in your professional opinion? Andrew Fishman: I think it depends on the kid and the level of maturity. So for public chat, I wouldn't let them use it until 16, 17 at the earliest. If they're old enough to, if they're mature enough to handle hearing some really heinous things. And they know how to handle them. For chat or chatting with their friends, that's a different story for me. if you would let them talk to their friends on the phone unsupervised, it's probably fine to have them talk to each other while playing a game. That doesn't bother me at all. But public chat even I turn that off most of the time. Cause it's bad in some places. Susan Stone: Do you think we should put a time restriction on how long your, you let your kid play? Because you would let your kid go to the mall for hours? Andrew Fishman: And so there is some evidence that being on screens for too long every day is harmful. But it depends. I guess what the alternative is if they are, if they have the option to go to soccer practice, that's probably better for their physical health than their mental health is to be running around and being with people in person. But if not, if they would be sitting and playing a video game by themselves versus playing it with friends, that's, I wouldn't encourage with friends anyway. And if they're not showing any signs of video games doing harm to them. There's probably not much of an issue with sitting around and playing for several hours. Kristina Supler: Andrew, I can just imagine my peers, my friends, and Susan and I were based in Cleveland. And so though we're not in Chicago or New York, we're also not in a total social desert. And I can just hear people I know saying, why would anyone prefer this online socialization? I don't get it. So can you shed some light on why, in fact, some people do prefer online socialization? Andrew Fishman: It's a lot easier for some people. It's, it might be the only thing that's possible for some of them. So take for instance, somebody who has depression. It is just by definition, really hard to get out of bed. You have low mood. It is hard for you to just find the energy to do anything. Let alone set up plans. And then leave the house and get dressed and showered, and then go out and get to the place and then have to use all this energy to socialize if you know the way you want to. That might just, that might literally not be possible for some people. You are, Susan Stone: Would you say from a therapeutic perspective, the goal is to maybe use it for scaffolding? Or do you think it's enough for some people? Meaning would you say, if someone has severe depression, okay, why don't we start here, but I really wanna get you, so you're going to a party and not abstaining from a party. Or do you think, why are we, this works if it's not broken. And this person can socialize this way, who cares? What's the downside? Andrew Fishman: And a lot of the time I do want to use it as a scaffolding, as a less bad option. Because it's research shows that it's not as good to be online as it is to be in person. I think we all, that's gonna be my question. Yep. And so it's better than not having a person to talk to for sure. But it is not as good as going out to a party if you're, if you have the ability to do. And so we're comparing, I think, three categories of people. One is the people who just can't. Who do not have the ability to make friends in person for a variety of reasons. People who can, but it's difficult. And then people who really it's a choice. they go out all the time and they also wanna supplement that with games. And so each one of those, I would encourage to be in person whenever possible. But it sounds like for each of those three categories and people, and for all of us, if you, if your choice is being isolated and alone in your place, or to be sharing even a virtual space with somebody else, that's probably better for your mental health, just as a social animal. Susan Stone: What about playing, having someone over and playing chess or Monopoly or Scrabble or banana grams? Kristina Supler: I think though what I'm hearing Andrew say is that for many that's just not an option for potentially a variety of reasons. And so I think that, I don't know. Would anyone disagree that having a friend over to play a board game is preferred to online social interaction? Probably not. But maybe for whatever reason, you have an ill family member, you live in the middle of nowhere, who knows? maybe you can't. Susan Stone: Andrew what? I, two good points. Kristina w Kristina Supler: So we read a lot in the news and in magazines and newspapers about the negative effects of video games, video game addiction. The who? Susan Stone: Yeah. Online addiction. You're your thing, right? Kristina Supler: Yep. Or the, the predators trolling these online chat groups. And some. Really fear the internet in terms of allowing their children to have interaction with it. In your opinion, what are some of the red flags that parents should really watch out for in terms of gauging whether their child's use of the internet is becoming problematic? Susan Stone: And is video addiction a, is it real or is it just not? No limitations. Andrew Fishman: That's, I think you're heading at the heart of something really important is that there isn't a psychological, there isn't a, a consensus yet. So there's a thing called the dsm. You may or not be familiar with it. It's what psychologists and psychiatrists use to diagnose people. Video game addiction is in there. But only in the back as a condition for future study. So they're, they're aware of it. They're researching it. They're not sure whether to put it in or not. But some of those criteria that they're suggesting might be in there are what you would expect. The letting it interfere with your schoolwork or, professional life. If you're choosing to play a game, instead of hanging out with people in person. If you are choosing, if you're. Spending more money on games than you can afford. Kristina Supler: Sounds like any vice really. Andrew Fishman: Yeah, it is. Yes. Where if it is starting to affect the, your quality of life, it's affecting the way that you live and you have lost control over it. That it's like any vice. But this, it seems like this is, video games are intentionally made to be habit forming. So it does feel a little more specific, like a kind of addiction rather than, let's say eating or, golf. Because, you could have the same kind of problems with golf where you would go there instead of Thanksgiving. And you could choose to ignore other people and spend a ton of money on it. But golf isn't specifically made to be addicting like video games are. Susan Stone: I read an article that people get little dopamine hits. When they play video games. Is that real? Kristina Supler: Yes. So like the slots in Andrew Fishman: Vegas Uhhuh. Yeah. So I think that's a little bit of a, it is technically correct. But I think that's overblown because technically anything you enjoy gives you dopamine. And so that's just the mechanism by which your brain tells you that something is fun. And so when people say, well, video games give you dopamine, and so does heroin, that's not a fair comparison. Eating something gives you dopamine too. Really anything that you, you know that makes you smile is gotta give you dopamine. And so for me, an ice cream Sunday, Kristina Supler: I was just, yes, ice cream Sunday gives you, which I save ice cream Sunday might give. Not really because like it genuinely makes me happy. Susan Stone: Oh my gosh. A little hot fudge and whipped cream and some salted pe. We've gotta go to Mitchell today. It is my birthday today. So I want a Sundae yay. Thanks. Thanks. I get to be with you Andrew. Now we're socializing right now. I'm getting to know you. Mm-hmm. Kristina Supler: So what are your thoughts, Andrew, in terms of guardrails that parents can put in place to help their kids find the balance between, Okay. Online socialization, good outlet. But also, as Susan says, have a friend over for a board game or go play soccer with some classmates. Go ride your bike, whatever. What are your thoughts on parameters parents can put into place? Susan Stone: Or walk The dog Love Dog Kristina Supler: and the dog. Walk my kids to help walk the dogs. Walk the dog. Andrew Fishman: One thing I often recommend to parents is to not take the games away. As much as add other things in. In their place. I love that. So if you're, if you're going to tell your kid, all right, you're playing too many video games, you should, we're gonna live at you to an hour a day and you haven't filled that time with something else, then they're going to want to play more and more. They're gonna complain. They're going want to do that. If you then say, all right, let's get your ballet lessons. That sounds fun. Let's do that two days a week. You have expressed interest in that. Let's get you going. Kristina Supler: Wasn't it also human nature? The minute you tell someone they can't have something that's prohibited, it's all you want. Susan Stone: Yeah. I still remember Saturday nights at home when watching my lineup was Love Boat and Fantasy Island and you've just aged yourself. I just did, but and I would spend sometimes, and then Sunday morning cartoons, I could watch those for hours. Is this healthier than regular tv? Andrew Fishman: There actually isn't very much evidence to suggest that it's any better or worse. Interesting that you are being more active while you're playing a video game. So if anything that aspect is, is better, but it's. would you rather be playing a game or watching somebody else play one or watching somebody else or just passively watching Netflix for several hours. Or engaging with your friends in a virtual space. Kristina Supler: That's a great point, Susan. Cause I hadn't thought about that in terms of, is playing a video game really all that different from just watching tv? Mm-hmm. Arguably not. And yet, some might argue that video games are unfairly vilified versus A kid plopped in front of the television on Netflix for three, four hours. Susan Stone: What I get concerned about though, is I'm a big pleasure reader. As are you. I am, I love to curl up with a good book and a cup of coffee or a glass of wine. I'm not that picky on my beverages. But do you think Andrew kids are just reading for pleasure anymore? Andrew Fishman: I think yes. I think it depends on the kid and it depends on the environment they grew up in. I think that people watch their parents more than they realize. And so if you are the kind of person who is saying, you should be reading more and you mean it, but you are on your phone playing Candy Crush for several hours a day, they see that. Yeah. They see that. That's what people do. Where if you are the kind of person who shows them through your actions of other things to do. If you are the kind of person who does dedicate time to reading, they might pick that up. If you read with them and or find books, go to the library, find books recommended for them. Find that ones that they would really enjoy. A lot of kids would choose a book Susan Stone: Or cooking. I spent a lot of time with my 17 year old in the kitchen and we cook some wacky things. Kristina Supler: But I love the, it's just food for thought for parents in terms of, no pun intended. There you go. The environmental influence, sometimes Susan and I deal with parents who all over the country are dealing with various issues tied to, you know, a child being in crisis and kids, students of all ages. And sometimes it's, we get these cases with these really big issues. and there's all these therapists and counselors and you name it with outside professionals involved. And sometimes it's like the easiest, not easiest, but simple things shouldn't be overlooked. You want your kid to read, have books in your house. You want your child to do be more active. Ha spend less time online with video games. Provide other options. Have other stuff in the house available. It's just, I, as we're talking, I'm just thinking about like the importance of not overlooking basics. Susan Stone: I'm a big fan of KISS method. Keep it simple. So were any other parting thoughts? Is there anything we haven't asked you that you really need our listeners to know about what you do? Warning signs, benefits, the floors open. I'm gonna say take your best shot. Andrew Fishman: I think one thing that I really want to address is the game Roblox. Because it's the most popular game. It's the most popular game for I think, five to 12 year olds, or was last year at least. It's a, it is a people misunderstand it. They think it is a game. it's a platform for building and playing games. So all of the games you look like a little Lego person running around. It's very blocky, very sort of Minecraft aesthetic. But you can make any game you want using this software. So I think there's, I think there are 4 million different games people to, for people to join. Like different, you can play tag or you can play a shooting game or you can raise pets. Or you can, there, there are millions literally of, different kinds of games you can play. And it is as complicated as that because it's so varied. They, the social environment in a game where people are gardening for fun is gonna be very different than one where people are playing something for doing something violent. There was shooting, yeah, there was a really notorious example that they took down. But existed for some time. Was there was a on Roblox? on Roblox? Yes. Okay. So this was something you could go to, And join at least pub publicly for at least a while before they caught it and took it down. But there was a concentration camp simulator. Kristina Supler: Oh my God. Oh my gosh. Andrew Fishman: Which is, which is like the worst thing I could possibly think of for people to be going, I to be going and participating in. And this was not meant to be ed educational or anything. This was just for fun doing some really hateful things. And so the people in that community are gonna be very different than the people in the other ones. And so parents here, I'm going on Roblox, and they think, okay, Roblox is fine. Roblox is a catchall term for a lot of things. Some of which are great and some of which are really not. And so I think parents should be careful which games they're playing on Roblox to play with them to see what kind of game culture they're experiencing. There's voice chat in the game itself. So if they can turn that on, then anybody can talk to you if you set, if you have that set onto, if you have that, setting set on. So that's something to be really careful about. And more than anything, I'd recommend that parents try the games themselves and play with a play along with their kids. Just say, Hey, you can playing that a lot. let me, can you show me how to do that? Susan Stone: That's tonight's dinner conversation. You know what I do with my, daughter every night? We Wordle. Awesome. Kristina Supler: I love Wordle. My kids are big Wordlers too, but I'm not. Susan Stone: Yeah, you're not a Wordler. Kristina Supler: I'm not a wordler, but my kids like that. I love Wordle. Yeah. Susan Stone: Yeah. I love world Wordle. And actually it's interesting because I learn things about my daughter every time I play Wordle in terms of strategy. She's far more strategic than I am I this roadblock though. Listeners out there, Kristina Supler: good tip for parents. Really play the games with your kids. Know exactly what the games entail. That's, again, really straightforward advice, but excellent advice and. Susan Stone: Ask questions. Wow. Wow. We packed a lot in 30 minutes. You did. Kristina Supler: Well, thanks for joining us, Andrew. It was a real, thank you so much for having me. Yeah, it was a good time chatting with you about these online communities and the gaming world. And I think that you've, demystified some points for us and I think helped us, you know, or hopefully helped our listeners recognize that there's some good in there too. And think about your own child and your circumstances and your family and just know what's going on with the game. So thanks. Susan Stone: I'm still on Roblox I can't get off of it, but thank you. Andrew Fishman: So I don't wanna vilify Roblox. There's a lot of good there too. There's a lot of safe communities for kids. But there's just be careful. Talk to your kids. Play the games with your kids. J. Make your own decision as a parent. Yeah. But thank you so much for having me. Bye-Bye. Thank you.

Question Time Stamps for Quick Reference:0:00 - Intro 0:14 {Bookshelf Tour!} When can we get a bookshelf tour? 11:48 {Should Churches Keep Records of Giving?} My church requires all employees to give to the church (in general; any amount is fine). They pulled me aside to ask why I haven’t been giving, and when I told them I was, but that I felt better giving anonymously in the offering plate rather than having a record attached to my name, they told me it needed to be tracked. Am I wrong for feeling weird about this, or are they? 17:49 {Is Absolution or Absolving of Sins Biblical?} Does John 20:23 and Matthew 6:14 indicate that absolution (the act of forgiving someone for having done something wrong or sinful) is biblical? 23:52 {New Names in Heaven?} Do you have any insight about Revelation 2:17, specifically about the implication of new names in Heaven? 29:07 {Is Changing our Appearance Sinful?} Would changing our appearance in any way be a sin since God has created us in His image? For example, if we wear makeup, is that covering our natural beauty? And if we shave our body, is that destroying the beauty God has given us? 33:53 {Am I Obedient Enough? Repentant Enough?} I have recently been worrying a lot about whether I am obedient enough, repentant enough, or believing enough to be a real Christian. How can I biblically deal with this struggle? 39:55 {Why Does Jesus Conceal the Meaning of Things?} In Luke 9:44-45, why would Jesus tell His disciples this, only to have the meaning concealed? Why tell them if it wasn’t meant for them to understand? 43:52 {Raising Dead & Healing for Today?} Raising the Dead: Should we practice Matthew 10:8 today, or has the command to heal, cast out demons, and raise the dead ceased? 47:53 {Why is Abraham Commended for being with Hagar?} Why is Abraham commended for his faith when he tries to conceive a son through his slave, Hagar? Isn't that an indication that he had a moment where he lacked faith? 50:24 {Can the Deceased Hear/See Us?} Do you think that dead people can hear us and see what’s happening in our world? 55:40 {Discerning God’s Voice} How can I tell when the Holy Spirit is talking to me? Ever since hearing a sermon about a pastor's conviction to spend more time with God, I think I’m hearing God ask for more time when I close my Bible. 59:56 {Encouragement amid Infertility} My husband and I have struggled to have a baby, and I have had Psalm 127:3 on my mind. It makes me feel like there is something I need to do, and a lack of faith. What is the context of the “reward”? 1:04:18 {Why Can I Be Saved, But Not Judas?} Heartbreakingly, I have betrayed Christ for things worth far less than 30 pieces of silver. What is fundamentally different between Judas and me? Why can I still be saved, but he couldn’t? 1:06:36 {Who are the Called According to His Purpose?} Given the way Romans 8:28 is worded, I am wondering: are all people called according to His purpose, or only those of us who love Him? 1:09:27 {Hot? Cold? Lukewarm?} What does Jesus mean in Revelation 3:16 when He says it’s better to be hot or cold than lukewarm? 1:13:50 {Could Cain Still Be Alive?} How do you feel about the Bible conspiracy that Cain is still alive somehow and is wandering the Earth to this day? 1:15:20 {Witnessing to Stubborn Family Members} Does “shaking the dust off your feet” (Matthew 10: 14) ever apply to family? Or are we to always endure in witnessing to family, despite continual rejection? 1:18:15 {Was Jesus’ Analogy Flawed?} Someone's response to Matthew 5:13 was “How can salt lose its saltiness? If it wasn’t salty, it wouldn't be salt.” I understand what Jesus is saying here, but does this mean Je
