Beyond Risk & Back

Host of Beyond Risk and Back and founder of www.firemountainprograms.com, Aaron Huey, interviews Chester Simmons, a young man that learned how to overcome dyslexia and ADD. Tune in to hear an amazing perspective for parents:

Dr. Charles Fay and Aaron Huey review the essentials of Love and Logic and how it can provide a clear path of boundaries, consequences, and responsibility for ANY child. Dr. Fay is a parent, internationally recognized author, consultant and highly skilled public speaker. Millions of educators, mental health professionals, and parents world-wide have benefited from his practical and down-to-earth solutions to the most common and frustrating behaviors displayed by youth of all ages. These solutions come directly from years of research and clinical experience serving severely disturbed youth and their families in psychiatric hospitals, public and private schools, and homes. His interest in education and psychology were peaked as a child from years of exposure to some of our nation’s most dynamic experts in these fields. This early exposure came as a result of participation in training events with his father, Jim Fay. Jim is one of the nation’s leading experts on child discipline and has over fifty years of experience in public education. The internationally recognized Love and Logic approach was literally developed around Charles Fay as he grew. Now he jokes, “I think that’s why I became a psychologist…just to figure out what they were doing to me as a kid. But…let me be clear…I absolutely adore my mom and dad as a result.”

Talk about bodies, sex, birds, and the bees to your kids and teens.

Leave space for family values. Leave space for your teen's ideas and values...that are in development.

Mandi Nuttall is a former high school health teacher and collegiate volleyball player at BYU and has since adopted the self-proclaimed titles of a taxi driver, nutritionist, doctor, therapist, personal trainer, cancer fighter, interior designer, janitor, photographer, chef, all since marrying her soulmate and becoming a mother. Mandi and her kind-hearted husband Matt found out real quick how easy it is to go from 3 to 5 kids after twins rocked their world. After living in Utah for 12 years, and Mandi working as a professional photographer while her husband finished school, the Nuttalls have moved North and have fallen in love with the Pacific Northwest. In between the craziness of motherhood, Mandi has found another incredible purpose. Mandi is now publishing her first book, The Birthday Suit Book 1: Yearly Guides to Easily Teach Children Ages 1 to 9 About Their Body and Sex which launches on October 5th. This first book will make a huge difference in parents' lives. Mandi believes in the limitless potential within families to do good and raise knowledgeable children. She witnessed the lack of knowledge in her High School students when teaching about the body and health in her Health class, and knows how hard it is for parents to feel confident in teaching this subject. So she wrote this book to make the process simple, and to empower parents to then empower their children to respect and love their bodies. We have one shot to teach our kids to respect their bodies, and we can't leave that up to the world-it's our job and divine responsibility.

27 years as a High School Teacher, Marci Brockman is the author of Permission to Heal and this show helps clear the way for self-care.

Empathy begins with the sharing of our stories. In this podcast, we engage in meaningful, deeply human conversations to inspire connection, compassion, understanding, and whole-hearted wellness. We all need to learn to give ourselves the grace and space to heal from trauma, breathe through the tough stuff, and create meaningful lives and love. Only we can give ourselves permission to trust and take care of ourselves, follow our hearts and desires, and build lives of love, home, and belonging. Marci Brockmann is an author, artist, podcaster, and English teacher.

Do you actually have to stop and literally give yourself permission to recover from your trauma?

Yep. It is the first step to true healing. Tell yourself you can.
