Family Looking Up

This week we talk all about connection. Our two fabulous guests, Hollie Henderson and Josh Brazier talk about the importance of connection in our families, road blocks to connecton, and how we can improve our interactions with our kids.  It is a great episode for all ages.

For this spring release, we talk traditions that center on kids birthdays, Valentines, and St. Patricks Day.  It's one of the things we love to talk about since all of us have different ideas on how much or how little to do. 

Dana K. White of "A Slob Comes Clean" is with us today!  Dana has come on once before, and has remained in our memory of one of the funniest guests we have had!  

Dana, a self confessed former slob, is brilliant at translating organization for the brains of the unorganized SO THAT WE CAN UNDERSTAND! She's genius, fun, and funny! Enjoy!

You know we each love books, so between the three of us we go through our fair share!  On this episode we discuss our latest reads - all the good and all the bad.  We do a lot of laughing and hope you can laugh along with us.

One of our favorite guests, Kathi Lipp, joins us for this episode discussing the importance of creating a space for God in our lives.  Kathi talks through the things that keep us from doing so and how to overcome them in easy reachable steps.  We hope you find this episode to be a helpful and hopeful message!

Parents never set out on their parenting journey with the goal of making man babies that take from, rather than give to, the world as a whole.  We all want to raise little boys into good men who know how to treat others and leave the world a better place than they found it.  Bethany Jett is a mom of boys who knows a thing or two about how to raise boys to be good men.  We loved her and hope you enjoy this episode!

The "Sandwich Generation" is a term given to middle-aged adults (often in their 40s and 50s) who are caring for both elderly parents and their own children.  Being a caregiver to both parent and child brings creates a juggling act with its own set of struggles.  Our guest today not only lived this reality herself, but now counsels those who are currently dancing this particular dance.  This is an episode filled with personal stories, wisdom and empathy.  We hope you will enjoy!

We are thrilled to welcome back Dr. William Stixrud and Ned Johnson, to discuss their new book “What Do You Say? How to Talk with Kids to Build Motivation, Stress Tolerance, and a Happy Home” .  These authors always have incredible insights backed by science that helps parents to understand, better, how to communicate with their child. We hope you enjoy!
