How To

Are you stressed about how to entertain your kids this summer?
The long, hot summer days can be, well, long (womp, womp). 
That is why I’m so excited to share my interview with Andi Smiley about her secret for entertaining kids this summer. 
And what, might you ask, is Andi’s awesome secret for entertaining your kids this summer? (drumroll…) It’s podcasts for kids!
I (obviously!) love podcasts, and if you’re a follower of my show, I’m guessing you do, too. But do your kids know how great they are? If you haven’t yet introduced your kids to the amazing world of podcasts, you are in for a treat.

360: A Secret Tool to Keep Your Kids Entertained this Summer// Andi Smiley

Does positive journaling feel disingenuous to you? After all, there are really hard days when you’re a mom. Sitting down at the end of a rough day and writing down something positive can feel dishonest. Hop on to this week's episode and listen as I share an email I received from a listener who struggled with this. Hear how she navigates the balance between authenticity and optimism, and then hear how I’ve tried to do the same. 

If you have any thoughts about this balance, I’d love to hear! Come join me on Instagram, or leave a comment on my blog post!

357: Tips for Staying Calm During Your Big Kid's Big Meltdowns // Cheryl Cardall

Parenting anxious kids can be stressful! It's hard to watch our kids struggle. If you have a child who worries a lot, avoids certain social situations, or even shows physical signs of panic when facing their fears, you might start to wonder, "Does my child have diagnosable anxiety? Or is this just part of growing up? And what am I supposed to do to help them?" Sound familiar? I’m raising my hand! This is a personal topic for me because I struggle with anxiety myself, and just in the last few months, my daughter has started to show some symptoms of anxiety. 
If you’re like me, and these questions have ever come to mind, you will love my interview with Dr. Terri Bacow, a well-known expert in Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT). I was thrilled to have a true expert on this topic!
