The "Key 3 Educators" podcast is taking a hiatus!

Why? I'm delighted you asked!

To allow more time to complete a couple of curriculum programs for Christian schools and home educators! It's been a great privilege to work with Ken Davis on a communications course for high school students. I'm excitedly anticipating announcing more details in the near future!

Another is a character and faith formation program for middle school and high school students.

In the meantime, keep up with what's going on by subscribing to Hi(Impact) at https://www.stephaniepresents.com/ where you can also find information on speaking engagements.

Are you a "real mom" if you only have one child?

Gina Prosch proves you are, in spite of what someone once told her!

Artist, speaker, author, teacher, and home educator, Gina shares tremendous insights in today's episode. Our conversation opens with Gina sharing the perspective of what it's like to homeschool in a one-child family. From navigating how to handle friends' siblings to discrediting the idea "onlies" are automatically spoiled, Gina's insights are valuable for every parent.

Gina also dives into:

• What you need to discard as a home educating parent
• Socialization
• Preparing for the journey to change or end
• Grace as family dynamics change

As an author, Gina shares the backstory for her books, Finding Joy; This Day's Joy; and Joy: You Find What You Look For. What brought her laughter one day turned into a decade of purposefully finding joy every single day and writing about it.

You'll be encouraged and inspired in this warm, engaging, and delightful conversation!

Ruth is a speaker, author, and podcaster who shares her addiction and sobriety journey to help others facing addictions or strongholds. Ruth went through an acrimonious separation and divorce when her three children were young; the youngest was five months old. She raised them on her own, struggling to put food on the table, went back to school, got a job in IT, and made her way to the top, only to lose her job and, along with it, her identity.

During those dark 15 years she lived a double life, one as a successful businesswoman and mum and the second as a "party girl." Looking back at the party years sends shivers down her spine; she lived a dangerous and life-threatening lifestyle.

Ruth is now eight years sober. With sobriety came a new beginning and renewal in her walk with God. She published her first book, 100 Days of Prayer: A Journey Into Deeper Intimacy with GOD, in 2022. A new book, The Ultimate Conversation: Is That You, GOD? released in June, 2023. She shares her life story to help others write their own stories.

Ruth hosts a podcast, "Out of the Darkness with Ruth Hovsepian," showcasing transformational stories of recovery and healing from traumas and addiction.

Talking with kids about tough topics isn't always easy.

Neither is keeping current on what's happening in the youth culture.

Will you bring up a subject too soon or too late? How can you be proactive and not reactive? How can you engage in a conversation that feels like an engaging dialogue for a youth and not a lecture to endure?

With music, videos, movies, and shows streaming from a billion different people and sources around the world, how can you possibly keep up with the lyrics, messages, and movements?

You can't! That's why Axis is the research assistant and conversation aide you need.

In the second part of my interview with Kelli Rankin, you'll learn how Axis is helping parents, educators, youth pastors, and caring adults guide young people to apply Biblical wisdom to today's world.

A sampling of the resources Axis provides are:

• "How to Talk to Gen Z about Gender and Sexuality"
• Quick read blog articles
• Facebook group for parents
• Weekly newsletter, "The Culture Translator"
• Deeper dives into topics through Courses

Parents, teachers, youth pastors, and caring adults are using these resources to grow their awareness and empower themselves to be proactive and not reactive.

You can be equipped to start and continue conversations with the youth in your life on issues that matter -- in the moment and for eternity!
