Joining me for this conversation is Cathy Adams, a longtime friend of the pod, powerhouse in the parenting space, and champion of mindful, connected parenting.

That's my big message, especially to moms. Sometimes we use a lot of words to describe where we're at – ‘I'm such a mess. I'm so cluttered. I'm so overwhelmed.' But if you really start to put it out there, it comes down to fear. I love my child and I also really wanna have something for myself too. This is a very normal human experience and the more we normalize it and the more we recognize that the majority of people feel that way – that self-compassion piece of common humanity - we're like oh, we're not wrong.” – Cathy Adams REGISTER FOR THE FREE MOM BRAIN MASTERCLASS – Powerful Strategies for Anxiety, Overwhelm, & Burnout TAKE THE PERSONALITY PATTERN QUIZ!

There is a resistance for people to ask difficult questions. Fear of the answer. That they can't "fix" it. Fear that the answer will be really uncomfortable. You may find yourself alone in your postpartum feelings. Those unmarketable feelings. Because people around you are scared to ask you, "How are you doing?" You may be like me and not want to tell your partner or mom your feelings because they love to "fix" the problem. Tell you solutions, their experiences, because they cannot bear to see you unhappy. It's time to find the courage to have uncomfortable conversations and find the people that can handle them. Along with giving grace to the people that may not be able to handle them. How?

This episode is sponsored by Better Help and was originally released on Zen Parenting Radio. Here's a scary thought: fully-grown adults are susceptible to cults, or cult-adjacent behavior (there is truly cultish influence all around us in politics, wellness communities, and so on). So imagine how dangerous this whole world is for children, who are far less likely to have the wherewithal to identify and refute coercive persuasion. If you're one of our regular listeners, you already know how ubiquitous this shit is (unfortunately); so what can we do to protect our youth? Well, that's exactly what we got into with our friends over at Zen Parenting Radio, where Cathy Cassani Adams (a self proclaimed “spiritual and emotional mom”) and Todd Adams (“a logical and practical dad'') get into all things parenting. On their show, we not only recount our own story with NXIVM (perhaps you've heard about, read about, or seen it by now?), but also the importance of talking to kids about how relationships that might initially feel exciting or just “good” in some way—friends, coaches, teachers, bosses, etc.—can quickly pivot into something abusive. How can we teach kids to identify culty behavior and help them feel safe enough to ask for help? This one's for anyone who believes we need to keep our kids safe from evil, shitty shitheads.

This episode explores the subject of vulnerability, male culture, and parenting specifically in the context of heteronormative relationships and how men can show up as better dads to their differently wired children. And I have the perfect guest to explore this topic with — Todd Adams, half of the duo of Zen Parenting Radio, and a leadership coach for men and the executive director of the international men's organization, Men Living. Todd and I looked at the societal norms and pressures on men that get in the way of their being vulnerable in their relationships, feel more connected at home, and hold emotional space for their families, especially in families with neurodivergent kids and where the demands on relationships (emotionally, mentally, and physically) may be more intense. We also talked about what women can do to support and encourage their male partners to do inner work and show up as dads in a way that will better support their relationships and their family as a whole. Things you'll learn from this episodeWhat the a “man box” is (and how it differs from “toxic masculinity”)The barriers in a heteronormative relationship that stand in the way of men feeling connected, including the additional challenges when raising a differently wired childHow families can benefit from men showing up and being more vulnerable in their relationshipsWhat women can do to encourage their male partners to do the work and how they can support them through itHow dads can find other like-minded dads and connect with themResources mentioned for dads, the "man box" and how men can better show up for their kids and familiesMen LivingZen Parenting Radio (Todd and Cathy Adams' podcast)Todd Adam's Coaching SiteGetting Aligned Through Parenting and Marriage Challenges, with Todd and Cathy Adams (Tilt Parenting Podcast)Cathy Adams on Zen Parenting in an Unpredictable WorldThe ManKind ProjectThe Mask You Live InJennifer Siebel NewsomA New Earth: Awakening to Your Life's Purpose by Eckert Tolle Support the showConnect with Tilt Parenting Visit Tilt Parenting Take the free 7-Day Challenge Read a chapter of Differently Wired Follow Tilt on Twitter & Instagram
This week we will be talk about intuition and how we can learn to tune into and trust ourselves as parents and partners and create that beautiful relationship with ourselves as individuals. For many of us, our experiences out in the world have taught us to look outside of ourselves for answers, feedback, validation, and wisdom. Has that been your experience? It definitely has been mine! For me, conscious parenting more than tips, trick, and scripts has been about learning to tune out the noise and tune IN to myself and my child. That's what I want to share with you today!! To help me in this conversation, I brought in a colleague, Cathy Cassani Adams, LCSW. She is a co-host of Zen Parenting Radio (one of my favorite podcasts!) and the author of Zen Parenting: Caring for Ourselves and Our Children in an Unpredictable World. She is a social worker, certified parent coach, former elementary school educator, and yoga teacher.

As a parent, do you see raising your kids as an opportunity to improve yourself? Does being a parent help or force you to change the behavior you want to model for your kids? Todd Adams is a regular dad trying to do extraordinary things. While maintaining a full-time career, he and his wife, Cathy, started Zen Parenting Radio over 11 years ago. A podcast that helps expand compassion through the lens of a spiritual & emotional mom and a logical & practical dad. But being a dad, Todd wanted to focus and help other dads be better. So after a long weekend with a group of his guy friends, Todd launched Men Living, a non-profit committed to improving men's lives through connection. A consistent topic among parenting and health experts I speak with is that modeling the behaviors we want our kids to see starts with self-awareness. The ability to take our own temperature and realize what direction the pendulum of life is currently swinging in is a critical first step in self-awareness. As Todd points out, we need to pause and notice events without judgment. To develop the ability to lay down our defenses and realize that our spouses or partners are here to help us. Finally, we touch on the hot topic that all parents are dealing with: how to manage electronic devices with our kids. Todd lays out three steps he has learned and uses with his three daughters, which could help you and your family. Spoiler alert, the key is to be flexible.

How many times do you want to ask a difficult question but are afraid of the answer? Do you find yourself wanting to have a discussion, only to pull back for fear of what the other person may say? Are you afraid to ask your child if they've ever felt sad, or even depressed? Even more powerful, are you terrified to ask and acknowledge your OWN feelings? (Yes, they are inside of you!) As a podcaster, it may seem like I am very comfortable with "telling it like it is" but the truth is (I mean this is the Honest Mom Podcast!), I'm terrified of everything I list above. I push things under the rug. My codependent mind wants to "keep the peace" and not rock the boat. I worry how I may make the other person uncomfortable. I'm scared that the person will get mad at me. If you listened to my ghosting episode, that also affected my feelings about being honest with someone. That they'll just tell me to F off and be done with me. I grew up in a house where it really wasn't the best idea to bring up anything that would challenge the other side. Defensive responses, or ignoring me for a week, making me feel I'm attacking even if my voice wasn't raised, and many other responses that made me feel I was a terrible person for speaking up. For simply asking "why" or "how come". The truth is... uncomfortable conversations and acknowledging discomfort in our lives is ESSENTIAL for growth. It's not a fun place to be but it's temporary and will either make your relationships stronger, or it will tell you in black and white where your relationship stands. Even if it's saying goodbye. Sitting in your own discomfort about YOUR feelings in motherhood is also essential. Don't do what I did. Sweeping the feelings under the rug, swimming in shame, feeling guilty for even feeling a certain way, to a point where you ignore them. But they never go away. They grow. They stop you. They prevent you. It's time to release this and sit in the discomfort. Dig deep to find that bravery to have uncomfortable conversations that will allow you to GROW. To become the mother you're meant to be. The human you're meant to be. I'll be right there with you, you can reach out to me at any time. Listen, breathe, pay attention to what comes to mind, acknowledge, and take one baby step of bravery. I appreciate you listening, sharing, and leaving an honest review of what you think about this episode. Mom Card Drawing of the Week: "You are amazing, unique, and beautiful. There is nothing more you need to be... You are perfect the way you are." -Jynell St. James These are a few of my Favorite Things: Cedarwood Essential Oil. I love Young Living or DoTERRA but you can get amazing essential oils from so many places. What does Cedarwood Oil do? Well, it's great for sleep, stimulating hair growth, skin, stress-relief, dryness and cracking of skin (I use on my heels and OMG my heels are so soft now!!), it deodorizes, and so much more.

There is no such thing as a perfect parent. Neither my guest or I would ever claim to be and in fact, we both agree that parenting can be looked at as a “practice” versus something we are striving to be “perfect” at. My guest is Cathy Cassani Adams who is the author of “Zen Parenting - Caring for Ourselves and Our Children in an Unpredictable World.” We talk about the meaning of Zen Parenting and that, in the simplest of terms, means to have an awareness of reality; what's really going on, and acceptance of what IS. I love it when Cathy talks about how two things can be true. For example, that we can love being with our kids and also miss working and being with adults. I think that knowing we can be both allows us to leave shame and judgement of ourselves at the door!

Are you willing to do the work and focus on someone else besides yourself? Are you willing to be a better person for it? These are the same questions that drive Cathy Adams, a self-awareness expert, podcast host, & author focus on helping parents and empowering families. Cathy is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, Certified Parent Coach, Certified Elementary School Teacher, Certified Yoga Teacher, and teaches in the Sociology Department at Dominican University and Elmhurst College. 11 Years ago, Cathy and her husband Todd launched Zen Parenting Radio, a podcast that helps expand compassion through the lens of a spiritual & emotional mom and a logical & practical dad. Cathy's most recent book, Zen Parenting, dives into the seven chakras and how they intertwine with our lives as parents. Cathy explains that her journey as a new mom was not quite how she originally envisioned it, which helped lead to several life transitions that led her into therapy and parental coaching. As Cathy pointed out during our conversation, "if it's hysterical, it's historical," a reference used in recovery programs that identify the root cause of an issue is always a few layers deep and not simply on the surface. We can't always plan for what's next, especially as parents. What is possible is our unlimited capacity for compassion and caring—for ourselves and our children.

Parenting is tough. It can be an easy thing to get caught up in focusing on your child's well-being and behavior—and lose sight of your own. But it's important to maintain your self-awareness as you parent, and I discuss the reasons with author and Zen Parenting Radio expert Cathy Cassani Adams in this week's episode. Cathy's expertise is beyond valuable for any parent, so check out the episode for the unpacking session.

On today’s episode, we sit down with our friends Cathy and Todd Adams from Zen Parenting Radio to discuss Tony Robbins, the #MeToo movement, and why listening and continuing the conversation are essential for real change. We talk marriage, communication, family dynamics, and how we can live in joy and still acknowledge the struggles.
Hunter talks to Todd & Cathy Adams about How To Be A Zen Parent. Some big takeaways from this episode include: 1. The goal of zen parenting is not to pass your baggage down to your own children. Self-awareness/mindfulness helps you see what's coming up in you in those challenging moments. 2. They value discussion over discipline. The goal in the long run is not to teach them to fear us. The goal is to raise adults. The most important thing is to have a connection and a relationship. 3. When our kids are young we need an acceptance of how hard it is, AND what are the things you can let go of? How can you simplify? The only way you can take care of people is to put yourself first. 4. “It is not your child's job to make you happy.” Todd and Cathy Adams are the hosts of the Zen Parenting Radio podcast. This is what they have to say about themselves, “We are married with three daughters. We teach self-awareness. We connect through pop culture. We believe in humor & mindfulness. We know people can be a force for good. We are Zen Parenting Radio. Learn more about them at ZenParentingRadio.com.

Shawn Boyle is a proud father of a two-year-old son, and this encapsulates pretty well his experience thus far. From coming around to wanting to have children at all to being with his wife during childbirth to watching his son experience eating a cookie for the first time, Shawn has a lot to share from his firsthand love of parenting. He's also a film lover and filmmaker, so we have a good time talking about how that has factored in thus far, too. Check him out @shawnpboyle, and check out the podcast he'll be doing video production for, Zen Parenting Radio.
Cathy and Todd talk relationships and discuss and article (link below) from The Atlantic called "Masters of Love" In the article, it talks about the most current research about “master” and “disaster” partnerships.

Also, do you scan your relationship for kindness or for contempt? Be conscious of what you are looking for, because what you focus on grows. Todd shares some money tips (he loves money tips!), they play some clips from Frosty the Snowman, they laugh a lot, and they ask listeners to comment on how their partner showed up for them.

Cathy and Todd talk relationships and discuss and article (link below) from The Atlantic called "Masters of Love" In the article, it talks about the most current research about “master” and “disaster” partnerships. The biggest take away? If your partner sees a bird and points to it, look at the bird and acknowledge you've seen it. This is a metaphor for aspects of your relationship! Also, do you scan your relationship for kindness or for contempt? Be conscious of what you are looking for, because what you focus on grows. Todd shares some money tips (he loves money tips!), they play some clips from Frosty the Snowman, they laugh a lot, and they ask listeners to comment on how their partner showed up for them.
