It’s always there and it’s never-ending, just looming over your shoulder and somehow so heavy.  I’m talking about that invisible list you manage - the mental load you carry each day.  This week, we’re going to explore the weight of all the things you do and all the information you hold to manage your family and keep things running. It’s the stuff that’s often unnoticed, but vital to the day-to-day operation of your family. 

This episode will help you take an inventory of the items on your invisible list.  The first step to growing and changing is awareness, so we’ve got to take count of all the things we’re responsible for.  I’ll then give you language and a strategy for having a conversation with your partner and support system about your invisible list that invites collaboration and participation. And finally, I’ll share some helpful tips on where to simplify, systemize, and surrender so you can lighten your mental load.

As parents, we all know well enough that self-control isn’t innate.  But there’s good news!  Self-regulation is a skill we can help cultivate in our children.  But how can we get them to be conscious of their own willpower and mindful of developing it? 

In this episode, we explore how to help our children learn to self-regulate. We’ll discuss how we can encourage them to grow in resilience, manage big emotions, and practice delaying gratification. So press play and join us as I teach three specific things we can start doing today to help develop our kids’ self-regulation skills.

The quality of our lives is measured by the quality of our relationships.  And while I recorded this episode with a focus on marriage, this episode is for you whether you’re married or not, because these principles apply to all kinds of relationships. Over the 15 years Jeff and I have been together, there’s so much we’ve gained in experience and wisdom.  In this episode, I’ve narrowed it down to four things that are sure to have a profound impact.  This episode is for you if you’re ready to be challenged and encouraged as we discuss four things I wish I had known before getting married. 

In this conversation you’ll learn about unspoken expectations (we all have them!), what I think the purpose of marriage is, how men and women communicate differently, and the value in having mentors and seeking wise counsel.

As parents we want to raise up children who are bold, but how do we go about doing so? I want to raise children who speak up in the face of injustice.  I want to encourage my kids to take healthy risks and be courageous and confident.  In this Motherhood Monday episode, we explore four ideas for encouraging boldness in our children. 

We’re going to talk about why it’s important to encourage our kids along their journeys, and not just focus on their destinations. It’s the emphasis on effort over outcome.  We’ll also discuss how we can encourage curiosity and be intentional about our response to making mistakes - both our own mistakes and our kids’ mistakes.  And finally, we’ll explore the connection between adversity and boldness and how important it is to recognize and celebrate when our kids are being courageous in trying something new.
