We can hardly be blamed for getting caught up in consumerism at Christmas. It is everywhere! We are constantly encouraged to buy more, to eat more, and to keep up with everyone around us.
Quite frankly, it's exhausting.
Are you ready to pull in the reigns this Christmas and to offer a little of what you have to those in desperate need?
Christmas is a time to accept our place on the globe, to practice gratitude for all we have and to help our children understand how and why to give to charity.
If I've not convinced you, then Noddy Sharma from World Vision certainly will. He explains how donating is so much more than a simple act of giving. It will educate your kids, help them to see the bigger picture of the world around them and instil wonderful values that they will hold in their hearts forever, and maybe even pass down to their own children.
Listen to Noddy and I discuss:

I honestly don't believe there is a parent alive who doesn't struggle at times. How can we not?
There are no hard and fast rules for parenting. No guide to follow, or exams to pass.
Yes, parenting is a mission of trying your best and sometimes winning but sometimes not. All the while learning but constantly evolving because no two days and no two kids are the same. Fun heh?
In this podcast I chat to the Managing Director of Parentline, Kimberley Harper, about getting the support you need and deserve in your parenthood journey. And, even better, getting it for free.
So have a listen and learn ways to make parenting easier, calmer and happier for everyone in the family.

Christmas can be a particularly hard time for many single mothers.
We feel pressured to create a picture-perfect Christmas for our kids, complete with stereotypical family and presents galore.
Is it any wonder that we experience more Christmas-fear than Christmas-cheer?
To help lighten the load for struggling single mums, I chat to Major Beth Twivey from The Salvation Army about how we can reach for support during the festive season (and the rest of the year).
Or, if you're in a position to donate, we go full-circle and also discuss the many clever, thoughtful and fun ways give to those in need at Christmas.
In this chat, Major Beth Twivey and I cover:

You've been through hell and high water, but finally you and your ex have got your courts orders approved by the family court in relation to the care of your children after separation. All you need to do now, is follow them. Simple.
Not always.
It is way too common for co-parents to breach carefully planned court orders, which can cause havoc for everyone, including the children involved.
So what should you do if this happens to you?
Enter: Eustacia Yates from Australia’s first non-profit law firm, New Way Lawyers.
Eustacia brings her depth of practical experience and technical knowledge to this chat, where she explains exactly what to do if your ex has breached your family court orders.
In this episode Eustacia and I discuss:

It is a myth that you need to hire lawyers to separate and divorce.
You don't.
Property settlement is essentially a financial exercise that a lot of separating couples can work through together with the support of an expert. Which is where Belinda from Divide comes in.
Belinda works with separating couples throughout Australia to help you financially separate and have your orders approved by the family court, without using lawyers. The end result is a more amicable split which will encourage a healthier co-parenting relationship and leave more money for you both to begin your new lives.
Not only this, Belinda is a whizz at tax and super in a financial split so her advice will pay-off now and way into the future. Or, to put it another way, nothing will come back and bite you on bum further down the track.
Sounds good? Find out more in this podcast.

It's that time of year ladies ... don't delay and confirm your income with Services Australia today!
Why?
Because once you have, Services Australia can get to work and balance your child care subsidy for the financial year.
If you are hesitant for any reason, listen to this podcast with Hank Jongen, General Manager of Services Australia, because he has a great way of explaining the process that makes it all sound super simple.
Whether you don't know where to start, you're concerned about a debt, or you just want to get it right moving forward, you'll get the support you need. And, if you don't, Hank explains where to go for more support - and this is not just the usual channels ...
Hank explains:
A low conflict separation might seem like a contradiction in terms but it really is possible for many ex-couples. Maybe not right now, but certainly in time.
The truth is, it only takes one person to counteract conflict with a more effective and peaceful resolution process. If you want to be this person, this podcast will help you move your separation out of the combat zone and into a collaborative, working space.
I chat to Lisanne Iriks, who is an award-winning mediator and coach and the owner of Life Mediation. Having been a mediator for over 12 years, specialising in family mediation, Lisanne is perfectly placed to share her knowledge around this tricky topic.
Even if you think there is no hope for you and your ex, it is likely you will find some of Lisanne suggestions helpful, so listen and learn ladies ...
Lisanne and I discuss a lot of stuff, including:
