Have you ever heard the words, "That's not fair!" echoing through your home? If you're raising neurodivergent kids (or any kids at all!), chances are this is a familiar refrain. This week on the podcast, the conversation focused on the messy, ongoing topic of sibling conflict and the real meaning of fairness in our families. Key Takeaways Fair Isn't Equal: True fairness means meeting each child's unique needs, not treating everyone the same. Validate Feelings First: Acknowledge and empathize with your child's sense of injustice—then help them understand differences. Use Simple Scripts: Keep quick, calm responses ready for "that's not fair" moments—don't default to courtroom battles. Normalize Accommodations: Talk openly about why siblings might have different supports, tools, or expectations. Shift to Problem Solving: Encourage kids to express what they need and help brainstorm solutions together instead of focusing on comparison.

What if the biggest battle you're facing isn't the giant in front of you, but the way you see yourself?In this Father's Day message, Pastor George Sawyer looks at the life of David to reveal how God builds champions from ordinary people. Long before David stood before Goliath, he was chosen by God, anointed in private, and shaped through seasons that no one else noticed. His story reminds us that God's calling isn't based on appearance, popularity, or human approval. It's rooted in the condition of the heart.Whether you're a father, husband, son, leader, or someone searching for purpose, this message will encourage you to stop defining yourself by culture, comparison, or past failures and begin seeing yourself through God's eyes. Learn how intimidation loses its power when your identity is anchored in Christ, and discover why the battles you face today may be preparing you for the assignment God has already placed on your life.If you've ever felt overlooked, underestimated, or stuck waiting on God's timing, this message is for you.In This Message:What the Bible teaches about David and GoliathHow God chooses the heart over outward appearanceFinding your identity in Christ instead of cultureOvercoming fear, intimidation, and insecurityWhy God often prepares leaders in hidden seasonsTurning past pain into future purposeBiblical encouragement for fathers, men, and familiesHow to face the giants standing between you and God's callingDigital Connect Card: www.calvaryassembly.org/new Giving: https://calvarylive.churchcenter.com/giving Facebook Page: https://www.facebook.com/CalvaryLiveAL/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calvary_live/ Need prayer? https://www.calvaryassembly.org/prayer Want to take your next step in faith?

This week I sat down with Julie Voris, a content creator and Disney cast member who works PhotoPass in the parks. This episode is for those who feel like the Disney World vacation is a giant to do list you are trying to survive. We talk about how to slow down, find the joy, and actually enjoy the vacation you worked so hard to plan. Julie is not a tips and tricks account, and that is exactly why I wanted her on. We get into how young is too young to take your kids, why your own memories matter just as much as theirs, and the trap of trying to do every single thing in one day. Julie shares what she sees from behind the camera in the parks every week, and I share a few stories from my own family trips that taught me the same lessons the hard way. We also dig into the stuff that quietly ruins good trips. Julie walks through how to plan a brutally hot August park day so nobody melts down, why heading back to the resort pool is not quitting, and how reading a little Disney history can change the way you see the parks. I get honest about the spreadsheet families I worry about, and we both agree that value at Disney is subjective, so the bubble wand and the chocolate on the shirt belong in the picture. Stick around to the end for the rapid fire favorites and two of my all time favorite reset tricks for a rough park day. Julie has a monorail move that gets you out of the chaos without going all the way back to your room, and I finally share my PeopleMover secret that I usually keep to myself.

In this episode of the Future Learners podcast, Brett Campbell (CEO and co-founder of Euka) and Ellen Brown (co-founder and Head of Education) unpack one of the most misunderstood challenges parents face: school refusal. What it actually is, why it peaks in the middle of the year, and what a parent can do about it. If your child has started dreading school, or mornings have become a battle, this conversation is a calm, practical place to begin. This article is general information, not clinical advice. If you are worried about your child’s mental health, please speak to your GP or a registered psychologist. School refusal is not a child being difficult, and it is not a single bad morning. It is an ongoing emotional response that makes getting to school genuinely hard. Brett and Ellen separate stress from anxiety, explain the two very different groups of children who experience school refusal, and challenge the idea that success always means getting a child back into the classroom as fast as possible. Key Points What the data tells us These numbers can feel heavy. The point isn’t to alarm you. It’s that if this is your family, you are far from alone. Australians make around 6.1 million searches a month for anxiety and mental health (across the whole population, not only children). The proportion of full-time students in Grades 1-10 attending at least 90% of the time fell from 77.8% in 2015 to 59.8% in 2024, roughly a 30% drop in regular attendance. Overall attendance dropped from 92.6% in 2015 to 88.6% over the same period. The ABS National Study of Mental Health and Wellbeing found 38.8% of people aged 16-24 had a mental disorder in the past 12 months, with anxiety the most common group. One self-reported survey (the Monash Australian Youth Barometer) asked whether young Australians had felt anxiety or depression even once in the past year, and 98% said yes. Because the bar was “at least once”, that headline tells us less than it first seems. As Brett notes, it’s a number to read carefully, not to panic over. 27% of female adolescents aged 15-17 reported a serious mental illness in 2021, up from 16% in 2017. (Source: AIHW, Australia’s youth: Mental illness.) Only about half of Australian adolescents with mental health problems actually seek treatment. 1 in 24 Australian children aged 5-17 (over 4%) are on ADHD medication. (Source: AIHW, ADHD medications dispensed over time.) Why mid-year is when it often surfaces For children with a school-based trigger, the first term tends to simmer; by the second term, friendships and pressures “step up” and the trigger takes hold. Academic struggle that was manageable in term one compounds once the school year hits its stride. For children in the second group, a long build-up reaches a threshold, they can no longer “mask” what has been going on underneath, and it surfaces mid-year. When this episode matters for your family Your child has an ongoing, disproportionate emotional response to going to school, not just the occasional off day. Mornings have become a battle, or your child is withdrawing from things they used to enjoy. You are trying to work out whether what you are seeing is stress, anxiety, or something that needs clinical support. You are weighing whether to remove your child from a school environment that isn’t working. What School Refusal Actually Is The word “refusal” does a lot of damage. It makes it sound like a choice, the way you might refuse a second helping of dessert. As Ellen explains, that framing is wrong. “A lot of psychologists have called it school can’t rather than refusal. It’s not a choice the child’s making. It’s an emotional response the child’s having. And so it’s really important that we understand this is not just a child who’s being defiant.”Ellen Brown School refusal is not truancy, and it is not the occasional tummy ache or the rough morning after the holidays. It is something more persistent: “School refusal is where there’s an ongoing emotional response that is disruptive in a way that makes it really difficult to get the child to school. And it’s ongoing. That’s the important thing.”Ellen Brown Every child wakes up some days not wanting to go. What sets school refusal apart is a disproportionate emotional response, sustained over a period of time, a couple of weeks or more. Stress, Anxiety, or Something Deeper? One of the most useful parts of the conversation is the distinction between stress and anxiety, because parents, understandably, can leap to the most worrying explanation. Stress is a response to a real, present pressure. There is a clear cause: a test tomorrow, a fight with a friend, something unkind that was said. When the pressure passes, the stress fades. In small doses it is normal, even useful. Anxiety is the worry that stays after the trigger is gone, or that shows up when there is no trigger at all. It is anticipatory, a fear about what might happen. It doesn’t switch off when the situation resolves, and it can build on itself. When it becomes persistent and starts interfering with daily life, it tips from an emotion into a disorder. Brett’s clean way to hold the difference: “Stress says, ‘I have too much to do.’ Anxiety says, ‘Something bad is going to happen and I can’t stop thinking about it.'”Brett Campbell The Two Groups of Children School refusal isn’t one problem. Ellen describes two distinct groups, and the distinction matters because the path forward is different for each. A trigger at school. Bullying, a clash with a particular teacher, social anxiety, or academic struggle. Here the issue is environmental, something in the school is causing the response. Often it simmers in first term and takes hold in second term. Anxiety that isn’t tied to school. It may start with “I don’t want to go to school”, but the same response then shows up at the weekend, at sport, or elsewhere. This is the group where clinical support may be needed, and where a long build-up has reached a threshold the child can no longer mask. Working out which group your child is in, by trying to identify whether there is a clear trigger, is the first practical step. Rethinking What “Success” Means Perhaps the most important reframe in the episode is about the goal itself. Most advice treats success as getting the child back to school as fast as possible. Ellen pushes back hard on that: “If there’s an environmental problem, the child’s not the problem, it’s the environment that’s not working for that child, then success is removing them from that environment and giving them an environment where they can flourish.”Ellen Brown Sometimes success is not going to school for a while. Removing a child from an environment that isn’t working for them is not running away. It’s giving them the space to rebuild, and to build the tools they will need next time something hard comes along. As Brett puts it, even six weeks spent helping a child rebuild is not six weeks lost. This is where Euka fits for many families. Around 30% of families come to Euka looking for support with the intention of moving back into the schooling system, and that is entirely welcome. The goal is whatever is best for that child and family. Euka’s new Complete Guide to Confident Homeschooling course covers exactly this, with modules on what removing a child looks like, the first week, the first 30 days, and the path forward. Practical First Steps for Right Now If you are in the middle of the year and worried about your child, the hosts suggest starting here: Work out the root cause. You don’t have to solve it, just identify it. Is it academic stress, a bullying situation, a clash with a teacher, or something that moves beyond school? Don’t rush to treat a predictable problem as a medical one. If the distress is predictable (every Sunday night, after holidays), start with small, practical strategies before reaching for medical or professional help. Partner with the school if it’s a good one. Part-days, a couple of hours in the morning, or specific days are common, workable arrangements. Use a program like Euka alongside school. A child easing back in for an hour or two a day can keep learning at home, many find they’re not just keeping up but getting ahead, which becomes one less thing feeding the anxiety. And you don’t need to be enrolled as a homeschooler to access the Euka program. Reframe success around your child, not the system. Frequently Asked Questions My nine-year-old has stomach aches every Sunday night. Is this anxiety, or am I overreacting? + You are not overreacting. The child is telling you, in their own way, that something feels stressful. But a predictable, Sunday-night pattern points more towards stress about going to school than towards an anxiety disorder, and it may settle on its own over a week or two. Start small: talk to the teacher, look for a way to make Monday mornings gentler (going in a little earlier to help in the classroom, putting something special in their lunch). If the distress is only on Sunday and Monday and they are otherwise fine through the week, that is reassuring. Put strategies in place before raising big alarm bells. What is the difference between school refusal and a child just not wanting to go to school? + A child not wanting to go is normal and occasional. School refusal is an ongoing, disproportionate emotional response, sustained over a couple of weeks or more, that makes getting to school genuinely difficult. It is not truancy, and it is not a single rough morning. Is it okay to take my child out of school instead of pushing them back in? + Home education is a recognised, legal choice in every Australian state and territory, there is a registration process, and Euka can walk you through it. When the problem is environmental, bullying, a teacher clash, a school setting that isn’t working, withdrawing a child is a legitimate response. And it doesn’t have to be forever: success isn’t always the fastest route back to a classroom; sometimes it is time out to rebuild, with the option to return later. In fact, around 30% of Euka families come planning to head back into the school system. The right answer depends on your child and your family. Can I keep my child learning if they can only manage part-time school, or no school for a while? + Yes. A program like Euka can run alongside a gradual return to school, or carry the learning entirely if your child needs time away. You do not need to be enrolled as a homeschooler to access the Euka program, and Euka can support everything from registration through to reporting. Have a question for Brett and Ellen? Share it on the show, your question could feature in a future episode. Why This Episode Matters School refusal is rising, and the data backs up what many parents are feeling. But the most useful shift this episode offers isn’t a statistic, it’s a change in how to think about the problem: Name it accurately. “School can’t” is closer to the truth than “refusal”. It is an emotional response, not defiance. Separate stress from anxiety. Not every hard morning is a disorder, and not every disorder looks dramatic at first. Redefine success. If the environment is the problem, removing your child from it is not failure, it is the start of the rebuild. Your Family, Your Journey There is no prize for pushing through alone. Ask for help, lean on the people around you, and know that your family’s path doesn’t have to look like anyone else’s. “Your job was never to get your child to fit the system. Your job’s to get your child to feel safe enough to be able to grow.”Brett Campbell If you are even considering time away from school, Euka can help, from registration to reporting, so you can take that off your plate and focus on your child.

Since his passing in March 2023 we still fondly remember his voice, the charming character, the reality TV shows... but mostly, the joyful manner in which he approached every challenge he faced, including the one that ultimately took his life, cancer. In this discussion, recorded in February 2020 (that was never broadcast), Mark reflects on his journey in radio, laughs about the hardships, candidly talks about the cancer diagnosis, the love for his children, and just being a silly Dad who lived his life to the absolute fullest until it was no more. This month we celebrate Father's Day with a special episode in which we remember a life that inspired many of us through the years.

Everyone wants more direct bookings. But what if the question isn't "How do I get more direct bookings?" What if the real question is, "How do I build a business that guests want to book from directly?" In this episode of Branded & Booked, I sit down with Rose Taika, founder of Your Family's Place, a vacation rental company in Ohio's Amish Country that generates roughly 70% of its bookings through its own website. Rose is a homeschooling mom of six, a best-selling author, and a hospitality entrepreneur who has built a portfolio of family-focused vacation rentals by thinking differently about branding, guest experience, and long-term business value. Throughout our conversation, Rose shares why direct bookings are the result of years of intentional business building—not a software, funnel, or marketing hack. We talk about how Your Family's Place reached approximately 70% direct bookings, why most hosts focus on the wrong metrics when trying to increase direct reservations, and the role branding, email marketing, content creators, advertising, and repeat guests have played in their growth. Rose also shares why she believes hospitality is ultimately a relationship business and how that mindset has shaped everything from their guest experience to their long-term growth strategy. One of the most powerful moments in the episode comes when Rose says, "Real businesses market." It's a simple statement, but one that challenged the way I think many of us approach direct bookings. In an industry where Airbnb can bring us reservations, it's easy to forget that direct bookings don't happen by accident. They are often the result of years of building a brand, nurturing guest relationships, and consistently showing up. We also discuss the mindset shift from owning vacation rentals to building a hospitality business, creating value beyond the real estate itself, and why scaling a successful hospitality company requires consistent effort over time. Whether you're a vacation rental owner, boutique hotel operator, property manager, or hospitality entrepreneur, this episode is packed with insights on branding, marketing, guest relationships, and building a business designed for the long term.

In this episode of the Future Learners podcast, Brett Campbell (CEO and co-founder of Euka) and Ellen Brown (Founder and Head of Education) tackle the single most googled question they see from Australian parents every May, June and July. Can you start homeschooling in the middle of the school year? The short answer is yes, and often, the middle of the year is the smartest time to switch. Brett and Ellen walk through the seven things every parent needs to know before making a mid-year move. They cover registration timelines, what to do if your child is being bullied right now, families who are pulling kids out to travel Australia or overseas for the rest of the year, students refusing to walk through the school gate, and whether your Year 11 or Year 12 student can still finish strong with a university pathway intact. If you have been telling yourself you will “wait until next year”, this is the conversation that will help you decide whether next term, or next week, is the better answer. Key Points What the data tells us Mid-year enrolments are not the exception, they are the norm. Families join Euka every single day of the year, not only in January. 1 in 3 students now come to Euka because of bullying, up from 1 in 5 five years ago (Euka enrolment data 2021 to 2026, shared on the Today Show by Ellen Brown in April 2026). The eSafety Commissioner has reported a 37 per cent increase in actionable cyberbullying complaints from young people in the past year. Around 30 per cent of families who come to Euka mid-year do so intending to use homeschooling as a bridge, not a forever choice. Why mid-year is often a smart time to switch State education department home education units are far less swamped in May, June and July than they are in January and February. Approvals tend to come back faster outside the start-of-year peak. Your child can start at any week or term in the curriculum, in parallel with their school timeline, or by going back to the lesson where they last felt confident. Euka’s flexible learning model means you do not need to wait for a “fresh start” date that is months away to give your child a calmer week. When this episode matters for your family Your child is being bullied, and the school’s response so far has not changed it. Your child is refusing or resisting going to school, and mornings have become a battle. You are travelling for the rest of the year, around Australia or overseas, and the school calendar no longer fits. A life situation has shifted, and the 9 to 3 calendar is no longer workable. The Year 11 or 12 timetable is breaking your student, and you have been told “they cannot leave now”. You have been thinking about homeschooling for a while, and you are tired of waiting for January. The Single Most Asked Question We Hear Every May, June and July Every year, the same question lands in the Euka inbox in waves. Some version of “is it too late to start now?”, or “can I switch in the middle of the year?”, or “do I have to wait until Term 1 next year?”. The answer has not changed, and it is short. No, it is not too late. Yes, you can switch right now. You do not have to wait. What has changed is the number of families asking, and the range of reasons. Bullying is the biggest single trigger, but the same conversation comes from families heading off to travel for the rest of the year, parents whose child has stopped getting in the car for school, and senior students whose Year 11 or 12 timetable has stopped working. “You do not have to wait for January. Often, the next term is too late. The decision to remove a child from a situation that is hurting them is not a decision that should sit on a shelf.”— Ellen Brown, Founder and Head of Education, Euka 7 Things to Know Before You Switch Mid-Year This is the spine of the episode, structured as a journey from the first moment of doubt, to the decision, to the first day at home. 1. You can start any day of the year There is no enrolment cliff at the end of January. The Euka program is built so that a student can begin at any lesson, in any week, in any term. If your child is in the middle of Term 2 at school, they can pick up at the equivalent point in the Euka curriculum, or go back to where they last felt on top of the work and rebuild from there. 2. Mid-year is actually a faster registration window State home education units process the bulk of their applications between November and February. By the middle of the year, the queue is shorter and the wait times are better. If you are looking at homeschooling in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria or any other state, mid-year is the calmer side of their admin calendar. 3. You do not need the school principal’s permission This is the line Ellen comes back to most often. Parents have the legal authority to remove their child from a school and educate them at home. You notify the principal, you do not ask permission. If your child’s safety is at immediate risk, you can remove them straight away while the formal registration is being processed. A medical or psychologist certificate can support that step. 4. Your child will not fall behind, and the “gap” often helps Euka delivers the same state-based curriculum as your child’s school, mapped to the Australian Curriculum and the relevant state syllabus. Lessons are designed to be picked up at any point. There is a thing Ellen calls “the gap” that matters here. When a child is in a stressful situation at school, the stress snowballs and the schoolwork in front of them stops going in. They are already falling behind, even while they are sitting in the classroom. Taking them out of that environment, even briefly, gives them the space to reset and regain composure. You are a product of your environment, and changing the environment changes the outcome. Many families find their child actually moves ahead once the day is built around how they learn best. 5. Year 11 and 12 students can switch too This is the one parents are most afraid of, and it is the one that almost always surprises them. In a traditional school, jumping out of Year 11 or 12 mid-year feels final. With Euka, it is not. The senior pathway recognises prior work, the assessment model uses upload-feedback-resubmit so students keep building their academic record, and Euka’s University Pathways include a partnership with Navitas that opens entry into more than 90 university colleges in Australia, the UK, Canada and the USA, without an ATAR. “I was that parent that was worried, like, what about after? But my eldest has received a conditional offer to law, and she is knocking it out of the park.”— Barbara Bryan, Euka parent, Episode 43 6. If safety is at risk, you can act immediately The bullying numbers are why this point matters. One in three students now come to Euka because of bullying, and actionable cyberbullying complaints to the eSafety Commissioner have risen 37 per cent in the past year. When the situation has become unsafe, the decision to remove your child is a today decision. The registration can happen in the background while your child gets the space to recover. 7. You will not be the teacher The fear that holds the most parents back is the fear that they will have to become a maths teacher, a science teacher, an English teacher, all at once. They will not. The lessons are written and delivered by qualified teachers through the Euka platform; the parent’s role is to facilitate, not to instruct. You sit alongside your child, not in front of a whiteboard. Answered Questions Real questions Australian parents ask, answered through the practical experience of running Euka and supporting families through mid-year switches. Can I start homeschooling in the middle of the school year? + Yes. The Euka program is built to be started at any point in any term, and families enrol every day of the calendar year. There is no waiting until January, and no “missed window”. “You do not have to wait for January. You can just jump on into homeschooling, and it is going to adjust around you and adjust around your child.”— Ellen Brown The state-based registration runs faster mid-year because the home education units are not as swamped as they are at the start-of-year peak. If safety is the reason you are moving now, your child can begin at home while the formal paperwork is being processed. How do I register for homeschooling in New South Wales, Queensland or Victoria? + Every state runs its own home education registration process, and the requirements vary. Euka’s Registration Service was built to remove the guesswork. You fill out a short questionnaire, Euka prepares the documentation including the individualised curriculum learning plan, and you submit it to your state’s home education unit. “We had families spending weeks navigating department websites and trying to write their own education plan from scratch. We built the Registration Service so a parent could go from ‘I want to do this’ to ‘my application is in’ in days, not weeks.”— Brett Campbell, CEO Euka Future Learning The state-specific pages walk through what your state expects: homeschooling in NSW, homeschooling in Queensland, homeschooling in Victoria, and the full set sits on the Why Homeschool hub. Is it too late to start homeschooling in Year 11 or Year 12? + No. Year 11 and Year 12 are the years parents assume they cannot move out of, and it is the assumption that holds the most families back unnecessarily. Senior students who switch to Euka keep their prior academic work, continue building their transcript through the assessment program, and have access to Euka’s University Pathways. “The pathway concern is the one that worries every parent. It is also the one that has the clearest answer. There are now more than 90 university colleges in Australia, the UK, Canada and the USA that accept our graduates through the Navitas partnership, without an ATAR.”— Brett Campbell For students who are not sure whether they want university, Ellen’s standard advice is to do the assessed pathway anyway, so the academic transcript exists if the decision changes later. What if my child is being bullied at school, do I need permission to leave? + No, you do not need the principal’s permission. Parents have the authority to withdraw their child and educate them at home; you notify the school, you do not ask. If the situation is unsafe, you can act immediately and complete the formal registration in parallel. The reality of bullying in Australian schools has shifted: one in three students who join Euka cite bullying as the reason, and the eSafety Commissioner reports a 37 per cent rise in actionable cyberbullying complaints in the past year. “If you do not see any signs of the school or the education department working to fix the problem, get out. I regret every day of those six months.”— Barbara Bryan, Euka parent, Episode 43 Can homeschoolers still get into university without an ATAR? + Yes, and the pathway is well established. Euka’s senior students build an academic transcript through an upload-feedback-resubmit assessment model. That transcript, combined with a university entry or foundation course, gives them access to more than 90 university colleges through the Navitas partnership, including in the UK, Canada and the USA. For students aiming at competitive degrees like law or medicine, this is a real, established route. For students who are unsure, doing the assessed pathway keeps the door open. How long does it take to switch from school to homeschooling with Euka? + Faster than most parents expect. The first practical day at home can be the day you decide; the formal registration runs in the background. Euka’s Registration Service typically prepares the documentation in days, and mid-year submissions tend to be processed faster than start-of-year ones because the state units are not as overloaded. The biggest delay is rarely the paperwork. It is the decision itself. Why This Episode Matters Mid-year is not a compromise, it is often the better window. If the school year started badly, or if something has changed for your family in the last few months, you do not have to ride it out until January. The state systems are calmer, the curriculum picks you up where you are, and the gap between deciding and starting can be days. Year 11 and 12 are not closed doors. The line that “they have to stay in school to finish” is the most common misconception we hear. Senior students switch to Euka mid-year, keep building their transcript, and walk into university through Euka’s University Pathways without needing an ATAR. Safety is a today decision. With bullying behind one in three Euka enrolments, and cyberbullying complaints up sharply, the choice to act is rarely about “if”. It is about how fast. Your Family, Your Journey If you have been wondering whether you have left it too late, you have not. Mid-year families start with Euka every week of the term, and most look back wishing they had started sooner.

In this episode, we're talking about two decision-making styles that affect how you spend your time, your energy, and your satisfaction with choices: satisficing and maximizing. You'll hear about what each style looks like in practice, why satisficers tend to be happier with their choices (backed by research), and where each style has blind spots. Plus, a personal story about running shoes, a teenager's obsession with gear research, and what happened when a satisficer let a maximizer take the lead. We also talk about why pairing these two styles together, whether on a team or in a relationship, creates better outcomes than either one alone.

Episode 304: Billions for Fascists, Death for You and Your Family by Craig Johnson
In this episode, we have the opportunity to speak with Janita about the PresentChild method, a technique based on systemic therapy principles that enable effective communication and understanding with children. This approach is likely to be transformative not only for homeopaths but also for other natural healthcare practitioners who may feel frustrated with patients experiencing relapses after initial success. Janita Venema is the founder and initiator of PresentChild, a method for understanding and communicating with children based on the principles of systemic therapy, family constellations, and quantum physics. Janita Venema is a Dutch psychologist and therapist who has been working with families and children for over 25 years. In her work, she noticed that many parents were struggling to communicate effectively with their children, leading to misunderstandings and conflict. This inspired her to develop the PresentChild method, which helps parents and caregivers understand the underlying messages and needs behind their child's behavior. Janita Venema has written several books on the PresentChild method, including "The PresentChild: A Gift for You and Your Family" and "The PresentChild Toolkit: How to Connect and Communicate with Your Child". She has also trained many professionals, including therapists, counselors, and educators, in the use of the PresentChild method.

What if the version of you that shows up at 6pm — snapping, threatening the iPad, locking herself in the bathroom for 30 seconds of peace — isn't a parenting problem at all? What if it's a nervous system problem?Wendy Snyder is back on the show & this conversation is the one-two punch I've been waiting to bring you. Wendy is a certified positive parenting educator, founder of Fresh Start Family, and host of the Fresh Start Family Show. Her brand new book — Fresh Start Your Family: Powerful Parenting to Restore Peace in Your Home — comes out at the end of May, and inside it, she walks parents through the exact framework she used to break a generational pattern of reactivity, yelling, and corporal punishment in her own family. We talk about why the high-achieving women in our community are particularly wired for reactive patterns at home (hint: the same nervous system that earned you the promotion is the one snapping in the kitchen), why "powerful parenting" is the opposite of "power over" parenting, and what it actually feels like in your body when you parent from your prefrontal cortex instead of your amygdala. If your nervous system feels like it can hold the boardroom but not bedtime, this one is for you.What you'll learn:The one belief most of us inherited about misbehavior that keeps us locked in reactive patterns (and what to replace it with)Wendy's "closed behavior to open behavior" process — how to find the space between What it looks like to trust your kid's humanity — Wendy's "let it grow" approach Why your kids will start cooperating not because they're scared of you, but because they actually look up to youResources Mentioned:- Our First Conversation with Wendy- Wendy's Book Fresh Start for Your Family-->>> Register for The Capacity Audit free live workshop June 3rd

A lot of Christian dads think budgeting is only for people who are broke. But imagine standing before God—the true Owner of everything—and saying, “We made money… we just don't really know where it went. And we don't have a plan for what's next.” That's not freedom. That's careless stewardship. In this episode of Abraham's Wallet, we talk about why even prosperous families must budget like serious managers of wealth, how budgeting actually protects your future, and why the habits you build now will serve your family for decades. If you've ever thought “we don't need a budget,” this one might change the way you see money forever. About Abraham's Wallet: Abraham's Wallet exists to inspire and equip Biblical family leaders.

Join Zach and Michelle for an incredibly powerful and deeply moving conversation with Tebo Mpanza as he shares his radical journey from growing up in South Africa surrounded by cultural Christianity, navigating identity and faith as a teenager in England, and discovering what it truly means to keep a soft heart in a world that rewards hardness, ambition, and self-protection. This episode unpacks what it looks like to move from performance-driven ministry to restorative leadership, from proving yourself to protecting your heart, and from striving for success to trusting God's definition of what winning actually means. Tebo opens up about his grandmother's genuine faith that shaped his trajectory, his years in church leadership and pastoral ministry, the burnout and depletion that came from running hard in his twenties, and the healing he experienced when someone finally told him he didn't have to prove himself. Discover what it means to guard your heart above all else, why keeping a soft heart is costly but essential, and how the Lord gives us a tender, responsive heart rather than a stony, stubborn one. This is a story about choosing love daily, recognising where ambition becomes an idol, and learning that your legacy and family may depend on your ability to remain soft. BURNED OUT IN MINISTRY?

Most moms prepare for the baby… but NOT for birth. And that's the problem. Labor is one of the most physically and neurologically demanding things your body will ever go through, yet almost no one teaches you how to actually prepare for it. So what happens? Birth ends up happening to you instead of you being in control of it. In this episode, we break down the missing link most women never hear about when it comes to preparing for labor. This goes way beyond a birth plan. We're talking about: how your nervous system controls labor why pelvic alignment matters more than you think what most providers never explain and how to actually prepare your body so you're not caught off guard If you're pregnant (or planning to be), this could completely change your birth experience. Because the goal isn't just to "get through" labor… It's to be prepared for it. ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS (6 – clean, natural) 0:00 why most moms are unprepared for labor 0:26 why birth is more than just a plan 1:34 birth plan mistakes that cost you 3:07 how your body actually delivers a baby 9:28 what goes wrong during labor 21:17 how to prepare your body the right way

On Episode 295 of Outside The Round, Matt Burrill sits down with Alabama native Hannah McFarland. From playing cover gigs at spots like the Bluegill to opening arena tours and hitting major festivals, Hannah shares her journey of putting in the work and finding her moment. She reflects on coming up in the Alabama scene, moving to Nashville, and the full-circle moments like covering “In Case You Didn't Know” to working with Brett Young, and going from her first arena experience with Zach Bryan to hitting the road on the Riley Green tour. Hannah also talks about her latest release “Missin' Me”, showing a more fun, up-tempo side of her artistry, while still rooted in the honesty her fans love.

In this episode of Friday Field Notes, Ryan Michler breaks down the 7 forms of masculine provision - a complete framework for showing up as a capable, present, and effective man in your family and community. If you've ever thought that working hard and paying the bills was enough, this conversation will challenge that assumption and give you a more complete standard to live by. You'll learn why provision goes far beyond finances - and how neglecting the other areas can leave your family lacking, even if the bills are paid.
