Do you like the mirror image that you see in your kids? 

Like it or not kids model what they see. They model you both good and bad.  If you want to see a change in your kids perhaps the best place to start is by changing what they see in you.

I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences with your kids copying you.

Happy New Year! I hope you had a fantastic holiday season with your family.  Today we explore what it's like to live in the SPLASH ZONE!

How many times have you thought I don't have time to myself? I don't have time to work out, read a book, worship, pursue a hobby, to just escape.  The reality is you gotta figure out how to mesh it all together and truly live in the splash zone.

I'd love to hear how you have figured out how to blend every aspect of life.

Order my book "Learn To Dance With The Currents of Life - When You Fell like Drowning" - Paperback and Kindle

This week I sent down with Dr. Richard Wadsworth, a psychiatrist who specializes in working with families, couples, and individuals with emotional trauma. A huge focus of his work is to get at the core of the family through the relationship of the husband and wife. We discuss how many relationships are on the edge because of they are not on 5 core principles to a strong marriage. We also discuss why men are surprised and upset that their wife doesn't want to have sex.

This week I sit down with Rigo Santana and we explore being a public success but failing in the area that is most important — our family. Working through the pain of losing family, looking authentically at yourself, and finding help can be a real challenge for a man.

A couple of weeks ago I told my daughter “I love you” as you walked out the door. She quickly replied, “Only because I let you in!” I’ve thought A LOT about that playful interaction. Finally I asked Cynsha to sit down and explore the process we’ve gone through of letting each in to each other’s hearts and truly learning to learn how to love each other. I’m not going to lie it’s been a turbulent road at times but I wouldn’t trade what we’ve become for anything.

I hope our conversation gives you insight how you can let some one in to your heart.

Today’s thoughts are inspired by a post by my good friend Deria Brown.

Don’t give up on difficult relationships. Lean into those people, push through the pain, the frustration, and embrace the refining process of learn to love through the dark moments and seasons of your life.

You may wake up a love the result of the refining process you went through together

Cheers!

Happy Monday,  Today I share a couple of thoughts that have been on my mind since Thanksgiving.  • See God's hand by keeping a gratitude journal • Making lasting changes in your life come when you start saying "I am..." • Are your words and your tone building up or tearing down • Often we want a gift but we don't say and do what is required to get that gift  

Have a GREAT week!

Happy thanksgiving men!  I hope you have a great day with your family. I especially have been thinking about you single and divorced dads. My message today is especially geared towards you but is applicable to all dads.  

Have a BLESSED and enjoyable day!  Jody

We all say there's nothing we won't do for our kids. But would you let your daughter cut your beard?

Join me as Mike Smith and I explore what it means to be a dad of a daughter.  We discuss how she has tempered his heart and helped him not only be a better father to all his kids but a better man as well.
