Are you worried your teen doubts themselves no matter how hard they work? Do they brush off compliments or beat themselves up when things don't go perfectly? In this powerful episode, Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin, psychologist and author of Your Child's Greatness, joins Colleen to explore how imposter syndrome shows up in teens—and how parents can help prevent it. Lisa shares how imposter syndrome stems from not internalizing success, overvaluing others, and defaulting to perfectionism. Drawing from personal stories—including her daughter's fencing journey—Lisa highlights the importance of embracing failure, savoring small wins, and teaching your child to develop a growth mindset. You'll hear heartfelt insights about helping your child build resilience and why internalizing success matters just as much as achieving it. Dr. Lisa Orbé-Austin is a licensed psychologist and executive coach. She earned her doctorate in counseling psychology from Columbia University. Her expertise on impostor syndrome is regularly sought by the media, and she has appeared in outlets such as the Financial Times, the TODAY show, Good Morning America, Forbes, HuffPost, Refinery29, and more. Dr. Orbé-Austin has been an invited speaker at various national conferences. Her first book, Own Your Greatness: Overcome Impostor Syndrome, Beat Self-Doubt, and Succeed in Life (Ulysses Press, 2020) coauthored with her partner, Dr. Richard Orbé-Austin, was a finalist for the Foreword INDIES Book Award. Her second book, Your Unstoppable Greatness: Break Free of Impostor Syndrome, Cultivate Your Agency, and Achieve Your Ultimate Career Goals H(Ulysses Press, 2022) is focused on dealing with the systemic dynamics that keep impostor syndrome in place and how to directly combat those dynamics. Here are three inspiring takeaways from this conversation: Failure is not the enemy—it's the classroom. Helping your teen reframe failure as part of the growth process builds resilience and self-belief. Let them fail safely, and support their emotional regulation afterward. Celebrate the small wins. Whether it's improving by one point or making it through a tough day, acknowledging progress helps your teen internalize success and develop confidence in their abilities. Model and nurture self-worth. Teens learn by watching. When you savor your own wins and embrace your imperfections, you give your child permission to do the same—and combat imposter syndrome from the inside out.

When the world lures your child from the Lord, parenting can feel like a relentless, lonely battle. Laine Lawson Craft spent countless hours praying for her wayward children before they returned to God’s loving arms. Laine Lawson Craft is a speaker, host of the Warfare Parenting podcast, and bestselling author of Warfare Parenting: A Daily Battle Plan to Fight for Your Child. Mom of three former prodigals, Laine shares biblical strategies that helped her win the spiritual battle for her children. Steven was lost in shame. Numbing his pain with all the things…sex, alcohol, drugs, and the like for 15 long years. Then, all of a sudden, he felt the weighty presence of God as an Uber driver prayed for him. Kaley was lost in depression. She believed the enemies lie that the world would be better off without her. She felt God’s presence as a girlfriend prayed over her. And Lawson, her middle child, had periodically lost his mind before he experienced a deliverance and a clarity that led him back to God. Laine shares her own stories of heartache and hope as well as sharing strategies for praying for your prodigal child as you fight FOR them, not against them, in the battle for their souls. Also in this podcast... When Jesus entered Jerusalem, he was met by the cheering crowd – and all their expectations! He hadn’t come to bring temporary relief for their problems. He came to save the world. When God doesn’t meet your expectations, maybe He’s up to something better. And Perry shares, “I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me, I’m not who I used to be!” When Jesus forgives ours sins, he also gives us power to live a new life. Not perfect. But as Perry shares, “The more I rest in forgiveness, the more power I find to walk out a new life.”Donate to Moody Radio: http://moodyradio.org/donateto/morningshow/wgnbSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Have you ever wondered why your child struggles with meltdowns, impulsivity, anxiety, or digestion issues? The answer might not be behavioral—but neurological. In this episode of The Soaring Child Podcast, host Dana Kay welcomes Dr. Tony Ebel, a pediatric wellness chiropractor, to explore the vagus nerve—the "unsung hero" of the nervous system. They discuss how vagus nerve dysfunction affects kids with ADHD and why gut issues, sensory sensitivities, and emotional regulation challenges may all trace back to this critical nerve. Dr. Tony shares groundbreaking insights from his Perfect Storm Clinic, explaining how birth trauma, chronic stress, and inflammation impact the vagus nerve and what parents can do to help their child regulate their nervous system naturally. From chiropractic adjustments to simple at-home strategies, this episode is packed with practical, science-backed solutions to support your child's brain, body, and emotional well-being.

"The vagus nerve is the ‘unsung hero' of the nervous system—it regulates emotions, digestion, focus, and even inflammation." "When the vagus nerve is weak, kids with ADHD struggle with impulsivity, anxiety, sensory overload, and chronic gut issues." "Constipation, reflux, and stomach pains? That's vagus nerve dysfunction at work—not just a diet issue." "The vagus nerve controls relaxation and recovery—if your child stays in fight-or-flight mode, they may struggle to calm down after a meltdown." "Most parents have never been told that birth trauma, stress, and even antibiotics can impact their child's vagus nerve." "An overstressed nervous system shuts down digestion, disrupts sleep, and keeps kids stuck in hyperactivity." "Chiropractic care isn't about popping bones—it's about resetting the nervous system and helping kids regulate naturally." "Parents—your nervous system impacts your child's. When you regulate your own stress, you help them regulate theirs." "ADHD healing doesn't happen overnight—but when the nervous system is reset, the transformation is life-changing."

She has over 10,000 hours of experience in education, both in the classroom and corporate sector. Even though she holds a Master's degree in education, she struggled to understand her neurodivergent and oppositional kids. Inspired by her experience using Myers Briggs and the Enneagram with business teams, she spent over a decade researching temperament pattens to help family teams. She is a best-selling author and host of the Not So Normal Parenting podcast. Her podcast is entitled Not So Normal Parenting because not only are she and her kids neurodivergent but some of her life experiences, such as driving off a cliff her wedding night and going viral for embarrassing her seventeen-year old son by dancing on a snowy and jammed interstate, fall into that category. In addition to being talked about by Hoda Kotb, the BackStreet Boys, and Princess Kate, even U2 singer Bono mentioned the incident in his autobiography. Because Wendy herself has struggled as a helicopter parent, a cranky parent and an embarrassing parent, she wants to help other parents struggle……..a little bit less!

How to NOT Raise a Narcissist: 3 Key Strategies for ParentsAttune to Your Child in an Appropriate WayAvoid giving fake or exaggerated compliments, such as "You're the best," "You're so special," or "You're perfect." Instead, spend quality time with your child.Only offer compliments when they come from the heart and are genuine.Engage with your child by asking questions like, "What are you doing?" and truly listen to their response.Be fully present during interactions. Put away your phone and avoid distractions. If your child calls for your attention, pause what you're doing and give them your full focus.Listen to Their Needs Without JudgmentWhen your child expresses a desire—even if it's something you don't personally like, such as a video game—avoid reacting with frustration or disapproval. Instead, ask why they want it and show understanding.Offer alternatives if necessary, but never shame or dismiss their needs. For example, if they want to play a video game and you'd prefer to read a book together, suggest both activities. This helps them feel secure and valued.Fulfilling their desires (within reason) and offering alternatives ensures they feel loved and supported.Show Affection and Be AvailableMake time for your child. If you're busy, postpone other tasks or delegate them to someone else.If you can't be present, ensure your child is cared for by a trusted babysitter or caregiver. A good babysitter can provide the attention and care your child needs when you're unavailable.Avoid using your child for social media content, such as posting selfies or oversharing about them. If you do share online, be authentic—express your true feelings or share something meaningful and inspiring.Teach Values Like Gratitude and HumilityEducate your child about the dangers of self-praise, bragging, and arrogance. Explain that these behaviors are harmful and can lead to narcissistic tendencies.Encourage gratitude by teaching them to say "thank you" for both positive and negative experiences.Emphasize the importance of humility and kindness over self-centeredness.Final ThoughtsA narcissist struggles to love themselves and others genuinely. By fostering empathy, gratitude, and humility, you can help your child develop healthy self-esteem and strong relationships.Avoid promoting narcissistic behaviors, and instead, focus on raising a child who values others and practices gratitude.My Video: How to NOT Raise a Narcissist? https://youtu.be/NTmWTd53DGkMy Audio: https://divinesuccess.net/wp-content/uploads/2021/Podcast4/How-to-NOT-Raise-a-Narcissist.mp3

Creating a Family: Talk about Infertility, Adoption & Foster Care
Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.I have been listening to your podcast and supporting your mission for several years. We adopted our daughter at birth through an open adoption. We began caring for her on day two; she is now 9 years old. She knows she is adopted and has seen photos of her biological parents. Her parents had problems with addiction and the law. We only tell her, “They were not able to care for you.” She has not yet asked questions about her biological parents, but she does opine about being an only child. We have not yet told her about her full biological brother, the full brother who died from neglect as an infant, her five half-sisters, her biological grandmother, or that her biological father died a few years ago, having “fallen” off a bridge. She will obviously know everything eventually, but we are concerned about when and how to tell her.

In this episode, we discuss several arguments in Anthony Esolen's satirical book "10 Ways to Destroy the Imagination of Your Child" and ask the question, "How can we give kids a world where creatively engaging their environment is the norm--not the exception?"

In this deeply moving episode of Warriors Unmasked, Chuck Thuss welcomes Laura DeKraker Lang-Ree, a mother, author, and fierce advocate for families navigating pediatric cancer. Laura shares her heart-wrenching yet empowering journey through her daughter Cecilia's leukemia diagnosis—a journey that sparked her mission to create resources and support for parents facing the unimaginable. Laura opens up about the shock and fear that consumed her when her three-year-old daughter was diagnosed with cancer. She recalls the early days of scouring the internet for guidance, only to find a lack of practical, emotional, and logistical resources for parents walking this difficult path. Determined to change that, Laura took her own experiences and turned them into something meaningful: her book, The Cancer Parent's Handbook: What Your Oncologist Doesn't Have Time to Tell You. Throughout this episode, Laura and Chuck discuss the emotional rollercoaster of being a cancer parent, the often-overlooked mental health challenges that come with the diagnosis, and the importance of building a strong support system. Laura's insights are both practical and heartfelt, offering listeners a candid look into what it's like to parent through a cancer diagnosis while continuing to nurture the rest of the family. Key Takeaways from Laura's Story: The Importance of Advocacy: Laura stresses how crucial it is for parents to become informed advocates for their children, even when the medical world feels overwhelming. Managing Emotions Amidst the Chaos: She shares strategies that helped her manage fear, grief, and anxiety during her daughter's treatments, including mindfulness, journaling, and leaning into her faith. The Power of a Support System: Laura talks about how she learned to accept help from others and how critical it was for her family's well-being. Turning Pain Into Purpose What started as a personal mission to survive the emotional toll of her daughter's diagnosis turned into a broader mission to help others. Laura created She Is You, an online community where parents can find support, share their stories, and access the tools they need to cope with pediatric cancer. Her book is packed with real-world advice, from handling medical jargon to advocating for your child's needs. Laura also reflects on the incredible strength she discovered within herself and within the pediatric cancer community. Her message is clear: no parent should walk this journey alone. Through her work, she hopes to ease the burden for others by providing the guidance she wished she had during those first terrifying days. Faith, Resilience, and Hope At the core of Laura's journey is her unwavering faith. She credits her relationship with God for giving her the strength to persevere through the darkest moments. Her story serves as a reminder that even in the face of unimaginable hardship, hope and healing are possible. Listen to the full episode to hear Laura's raw and inspiring story, and learn more about the resources available to parents navigating a child's cancer diagnosis.

New research shows that simple parent-led interventions can reduce gaming disorder and smartphone addiction in children by up to 60% in just six weeks. In this episode, clinician and researcher Dr Brad Marshall breaks down exactly what parents can do to help their children develop healthier relationships with technology, backed by groundbreaking new research from Macquarie University. Key Points: About 10% of Australian teens are experiencing problematic screen use and addiction. A study of 689 families revealed significant improvements in screen addiction through parent-led interventions. 60% of children with gaming disorder showed improvement after 6 weeks. 32% of children with smartphone addiction showed improvement after 6 weeks. Five key strategies were identified, with WiFi management being among the most effective. Quote of the Episode: "Parents can have a huge impact on how their kids do stuff online... even without any direct therapeutic intervention." Key Insights: Hardware-level controls are more effective than software-based parental controls. Sometimes parents need to implement boundaries before having conversations. Simple WiFi management strategies can be more effective than complex behavioural agreements. Managing mobile data plans is a crucial but longer-term intervention strategy. Parent-only interventions can be highly effective without direct child involvement. Personal Stories Shared: Brad shared his experience testifying before the Senate regarding social media age restrictions. Justin shared his perspective on occasionally needing to make executive decisions as a parent despite preferring collaborative approaches. Resources Mentioned: The Tech Diet for Your Child and Teen book Mesh router systems for WiFi management G-Mee phones (Australian smartphone for kids) Brad Marshall's website (The Unplugged Psychologist) Macquarie University research study on gaming disorder and smartphone addiction Action Steps for Parents: Implement home WiFi limits through mesh router systems. Place limits on mobile phone data plans Set clear boundaries around WiFi at bedtime. Consider hardware-level solutions rather than relying on software controls. Start with structural changes (WiFi/data management) before focusing on behavioural agreements. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

We don't just leave our childhood in the past. It comes with us, altering our lens of how we view life.

Our brains hold our relational history—all the joys, all the ruptures, all the repairs. And even in the most difficult childhood or parenting circumstances, the science of relationships and connection can give us hope for whole-brain and whole-life transformation.Therapist, bestselling author, and mom—Dr. Tina Payne Bryson is seeking a connection revolution that brings neurobiology and practical relational wisdom to bear on both how we were parented, how we parent, and how we relate throughout our lifespan.In this conversation with Tina Bryson, we discuss:The science of childhood relational development and growth into strong, adaptive adultsThe brain as our most social organ—capable of holding a lifetime of relational and emotional historyHow to emotionally co-regulate with another person to achieve a calm, peaceful, and vibrant relationshipNeuroplasticity and our ability to change with intention toward our deepest held valuesAnd we explore how the science of connection, attachment, and interpersonal neurobiology sheds light on how we were parented, and impacts how we might parent ourselves and how we relate to everyone.Books by Dr. Tina BrysonThe Way of Play (Tina's latest book!)The Whole-Brain ChildNo-Drama DisciplineThe Yes BrainThe Power of Showing UpFollow Tina BrysonTinaBryson.com Instagram X The Center for ConnectionShow NotesDr. Tina Bryson: an expert in neurobiology, parenting, child development, and attachment theory.Highlighting Tina's unique perspective as both a clinician and science-engaged researcher.This conversation focuses on parenting, but it's relevant for everyone—whether you're a leader, mentor, or someone reflecting on your own upbringingThe importance of connection, attunement, and emotional regulation in today's world."I feel so aware that this is not an easy time to be a child or a teenager in the world."Kids today face unique challenges that are very different from previous generations:More stimulation, information, and pressure than ever before.Earlier onset of puberty and adolescence, with young adults taking longer to launch."We often talk about the challenges of youth, which are absolutely real, but we don't want to forget that in many ways, the world is actually safer."Positive shifts in youth well-being: fewer teen pregnancies; safer environments (cars, car seats, public spaces)l greater awareness of mental health, substance use, and emotional well-beingWhat Do You Say?: How to Talk with Kids to Build Motivation, Stress Tolerance, and a Happy Home, by William Stixrud and Ned JohnsonThe brain is a social organ—we are profoundly shaped by the people around us."A huge contributor to some of the struggles youth are having is because their grownups are not thriving."Interpersonal neurobiology teaches that children's well-being is tied to their caregivers' ability to regulate their own emotions.Takeaway: Parents who are anxious, reactive, or dysregulated create environments where their children struggle to regulate their emotions."The greatest gift we can give each other is a calm presence."“History is not destiny.”Emotional offloading or outsourcingSafe haven or safe harbor: cozy, safe, calm“My mom will never listen.”Understanding teenagers“Please don't chase your child and force connection.”Non-eye contact feels less intrusive and they'll open up moreUnderstanding Attachment & The Four S's: Safe, Seen, Soothed, SecureSecure attachment is a key predictor of well-being in children and adults.Attachment is built through repeated experiences of the Four S's:Safe: "Do I feel physically and emotionally secure with this person?"Seen: "Does this person understand and acknowledge my emotions and experiences?"Soothed: "When I'm in distress, does this person help me feel better?"Secure: "Do I trust that this person will be there for me consistently?"Set an intention: "When my child walks through the door, I want them to feel at rest, safe, and accepted."Practical Parenting Tip: If your child pushes you away, don't force connection. Instead, say: "I can see you need some space right now. I'm here whenever you're ready to talk."Managing Teen Independence: When teens ask for space, don't take it personally. Instead, try: "I'm here if you want to talk later.""Would you be open to a short walk or helping me in the kitchen?"The basics of attachment theory: John Bowlby and Mary AinsworthMama BearsNot just brain, but whole nervous systemSecure Relating: Holding Your Own in an Insecure World, by Sue Marriot and Ann Kelley"Without awareness, we don't have choice."—Dan SiegelHistory is not destiny. We can rewire our brains and create new, healthier patterns in relationships.The availability of your presence creates a secure environmentRegulation & Emotional ResilienceDefinition of Regulation: The ability to monitor and modify emotional states rather than reacting impulsively.It's NOT about being emotionless—it's about responding intentionally”When we mess up, the research shows that as long as we make the repair, the rupture itself was actually beneficial.”Tina Bryson's Fragility Formula: Adversity minus support or plus too much support = fragility. Adversity plus the right amount of support = resilience.Real-Life Example: The Yahtzee IncidentTina shares a personal story of losing her temper while playing Yahtzee with her kids.She repaired the rupture by apologizing, taking responsibility, and asking for a do-over.Pink Flags vs. Red FlagsPink Flags: Subtle signs that you're getting dysregulated (irritability, sarcasm, tension)Red Flags: Full-blown loss of control (yelling, throwing things, shutting down)The Three R's of Parenting: Regulation, Responding, RepairingThe Window of ToleranceGentle Parenting vs Responsive, Respectful, Regulated, Intentional parentingRegulation: Managing your emotions firstResponding: Engaging with your child in a safe, attuned wayRepairing: Acknowledging when you mess up and making amendsReduce pressure—kids should not feel they must "perform" to be loved.The Power of Breathwork: The Physiological SighQuick, evidence-based technique to reduce stress and reset the nervous system.Take a double inhale through the nose, followed by a longer exhale."It's the quickest thing we know to calm the nervous system."Non-eye-contact conversations (e.g., driving in the car) help teens feel less pressured.The science of thriving vs. surviving: "Survive and thrive are not separate categories. What we do in survival moments can lead to thriving."The River of Well-Being: A Person is Like a Boat on a RiverThe FACES Model for Well-Being (essentially a definition of thriving)Flexible: Open to change and new ideasAdaptive: Able to adjust based on new circumstancesCoherent: Emotional and cognitive stabilityEnergized: Engaged and present in lifeStable: Grounded and consistentFamily Dinner Time: Keeping it light, being more presentPractical Exercise to Regulate Emotions: The Deep Physiological SighTurn down the reactivity of your nervous system“The key is: Make your exhale longer than your inhale.”“At his worst is when he needs you the most.”Pre-frontal cortex development: Not mature until late-20s.“The prefrontal cortex is changeable throughout the lifespan.”The Yes Brain: How to Cultivate Courage, Curiosity, and Resilience in Your Child, Dan Siegel and Tina Payne BrysonThe YES Brain Approach: Four pillars that cultivate resilience in children BRIE (like the cheese)Balance (emotional regulation)Resilience (bouncing back from challenges)Insight (self-awareness and growth mindset)Empathy (understanding others' experiences)"Thriving isn't about avoiding hardships—it's about learning how to navigate them."Recognize your influence: "Your child's nervous system mirrors yours. Take care of yourself first."Discipline and moralityHarsh, punitive discipline doesn't change behavior or develop a moral compass. It teaches them to hide the behavior.Healthy Guilt vs Toxic Shame“The way we don't get kicked out of our group is our conscience.”Guilt “is one of your superpowers.”“No one can lose each other's love.”Give yourself permission to wait and not respond in the moment.“My number one job is to keep you safe.”No lecturing. “What do you think I would say here?” “What's your plan to keep yourself safe?”Tina Bryson on Faith and SpiritualityHealthy spirituality leads to feeling safe, seen, soothed, and secure.The power of narrative and journaling: Making sense of our lives and integrating our brains*Parenting from the Inside Out,* Dan Siegel and Mary Hartzell*The Power of Showing Up,* Dan Siegel and Tina BrysonPractical Exercise: Acknowledging, Noticing, and Accepting“Negative emotions does not mean something's wrong.”“Emotions are important information, but they don't make the final decision.”Are your emotions making the decision?Curiosity in order to bring softness and nurture.Practice daily regulation: Set a personal cue (e.g., getting in the car) to check in with your emotions.Embrace repair: "Making mistakes in parenting is inevitable—what matters is how you repair them."Parenting is about progress, not perfection. "Every small shift you make has a ripple effect on your child's well-being."Pam King's Key TakeawaysWe're inherently wired for connection, and our brains store all of our relational history.Rupture is inevitable, but our capacity for repair can strengthen our bonds with each other when we make the effort to reconnect.Thriving involves and integrates all our most intense emotions. We get closer to thriving when we can learn to regulate and integrate our inner emotional experience.Attuning and paying attention to our nervous system is a core emotional and relational skill—and goes a long way in healthy, intimate relationships.We were all children once. We were all parented, for better or for worse. Learning to integrate every aspect of our relational history can keep us on the path to thriving.About Tina BrysonDr. Tina Bryson is an expert in applying interpersonal neurobiology and neuropsychology to maybe the most central part of human life: our closest, most intimate relationships.

Your Parenting Mojo - Respectful, research-based parenting ideas to help kids thrive
The Problem with Time Outs: Why They Fail, and What to Do Instead Recently, in Part 1 of this two-part mini-series, we began looking at a question from listener Melissa: "Can time-outs ever have a place in a respectful parenting approach? (And if not, what else am I supposed to do when my kid looks me in the eye and does something he knows he's not supposed to do?)" That episode looked at the academic research on the effectiveness of time-outs, what else might account for the research that finds them ‘effective,' and whether time-outs might harm children even if the research says they don't. Today's episode builds on Part 1 by exploring why time outs often fail to address misbehavior effectively - and may harm parent-child relationships. Key points include: We often don't understand the distinction between misbehavior and emotional distress: Researchers agree that we should use time-outs when children misbehave, but not when they're emotionally distressed. But what if we aren't as good at telling the difference between those two states as we think we are? Understanding why children do things we tell them not to do: We look specifically at what Melissa's 3 ½-year-old son is doing - things like poking her face, throwing a toy when she's told him not to, and dropping food on the floor during dinner, as well as pulling his sister's hair, and hitting/kicking her. How alternatives to time out are even more effective: Even in controlled lab settings, compliance after time-outs often doesn't exceed 60%. We'll meet parent Kendra, whose child had an Oppositional Defiant Disorder diagnosis that she no longer believes is true now she's using the tools we discuss in this episode. Drawing on research and these real-life stories, this episode offers actionable insights for parents who want effective alternatives to time-outs. Whether you're dealing with boundary-testing toddlers or older children's challenging behaviors, this episode provides tools to help you deal with your child's misbehavior by creating empathy and trust, rather than disconnection and resentment.
