Hi friend. Welcome to the show today, and I am so glad that you're spending time with me.
In today's episode, we are talking about the tough process of letting go. Letting is one of the most difficult things when your your kid hits the middle school years - you're in this big transition, and I found this so hard - "When do I step in? When do I step back?"
It's hard to let go when you watch them making decisions that you're not crazy about and you want them to be successful, and you want them to make good decisions. And that is all well and good, but without meaning to we often get in the way.
Today, my special guest is Dr. Cam Coswell, and she is also known as the Teen Translator. Dr. Cam is a wealth of knowledge and experience on adolescent development and how you can build trust and help your kid to become more independent and confident and to build those necessary skills that our kids need as they move towards adulthood.
You are going to love this episode. You're going to get so much good stuff, and you're going to feel so much better that you are not alone as we talk about our own challenges and struggles as well.
So let's dive in!

We've all experienced pain and trauma in our lives, whether it be trauma with a "little t" or "big T" trauma. There have been people, events, and situations that have hurt and wounded us. As a result, we've developed defense mechanisms to shield ourselves from the pain and to keep us safe. And yet, not dealing with our pain and wounds holds us back from healing, joy, freedom, and peace. But this takes courage.
Today, I am honored to welcome Karena Killcoin, the best-selling author of "Rise Above The Story." In this interview, she shares her story of trauma and healing and inspires us to rise above our stories and take the courageous path to knowing our true selves, finding genuine peace, and achieving emotional freedom.
Her book, “Rise Above the Story,” is part memoir and part evidence-based framework. She shares her own harrowing stories of trauma and distills the science of what your brain does to keep you safe when you experience trauma.
We all carry negative narratives that fill us with shame and unworthiness. We discuss the proven steps to stop living in the past, end your negative mind chatter, and love yourself once and for all. You are not alone.
This is a conversation you don’t want to miss! Let’s dive in!

I'm so excited that Dr. Jill Grimes is back. She is the college doc and just came out with her newest edition of "The Ultimate College Student Health Handbook: Your Guide for Everything from Hangovers to Homesickness." It is a great gift if you have a high school grad. It gives so much information that will help your college student navigate their health and symptoms.
In this episode, we talk about everything from how to support them in talking to their doctor to how to talk to them about getting their medication refilled. That is a tough one. How do you get your kid to become more independent and be able to do that when they go to college? We also discuss how to support them in getting enough sleep. Additionally, she talks about some things that I did not know, like how common seizures are with college students and what our kids need to know.
We also cover sexually transmitted diseases, substance abuse, and so much more. So, let's dive in.

Welcome to today's episode of How To Have Healthy Talks About Sex and Intimacy in A Confusing Culture.
When it comes to sex, our bodies, love, and intimacy, our kids are bombarded with false, unhealthy, and confusing messages.
How do we talk to our kids about what healthy relationships, sex and intimacy look like?
My special guest today is Dina Alexander, here to help us navigate this challenging landscape and empower our children with the knowledge they need for healthy, positive, and wonderful intimate relationships.
Dina is the author of "30 Days of Sex Talks for Ages 8-11: Empowering Your Child" and "30 Days of Sex Talks for Ages 12+: Empowering Your Child with Knowledge of Sexual Intimacy." She is also the founder and CEO of Educate and Empower Kids, an organization dedicated to strengthening families by teaching digital citizenship, media literacy, and healthy sexuality education—including the critical topic of online pornography.
In today's episode, Dina will provide parents with the tools and insights necessary to have these sometimes uncomfortable but essential discussions with our tweens and teens. We’ll explore how to foster relationships built on mutual respect and kindness and address the realities shaping our and our children's sex lives.

Welcome to the show today, and I am so glad you're here. I want to start today by sharing something that my friend Amy sent to me yesterday. This is a meme entitled "How to be a mom in 2017. "We could actually change that to "2024" because it still applies to us today.
Make sure your children's academic, emotional, psychological, mental, spiritual, physical, nutritional and social needs are met. While being careful not to overstimulate, under-stimulate, and properly medicate, helicopter, or neglect them in a screen-free processed foods-free, GMO-free, negative energy-free, plastic-free body positive, socially conscious, egalitarian but also authoritative, nurturing, but fostering independence. Gentle but not overly permissive, pesticide-free, two-story multilingual home preferably in a cul de sac, with a backyard and 1.5 siblings spaced at least two years apart for proper development. Also, don't forget the coconut oil.
Then, it goes on to say, "How to be a mom in literally every generation before ours. Feed them sometimes."
Oh my gosh, we were having a huge conversation about how we can feel so exhausted that we can feel like we've lost ourselves as moms or feel like we're constantly abandoning our own needs.
If you are relating to this, you're going to love my special guest today Heather Chauvin. Heather has been named the next-generation thought leader in parenting and women's leadership. She's the author of Dying to Be a Good Mother and the podcast host of Emotionally Uncomfortable, and Heather's work supports women to manage their energy and time so they don't have to sacrifice their impact at work or at home with their kids. And her mission is to crack women open to their deepest potential and lead the life their soul craves.
There are so many nuggets of wisdom and goodness in this episode, so let's dive in!

Hi, friends; welcome to the show.
I'm so glad that you're here. Mental health and emotional wellness is something that we all want for our kids. And if our kids are struggling, if they're going through a tough time, if they're spending a lot of time in their bedrooms, and they're sad, and they are isolated and they're lonely, or you have a kid that is struggling with depression or anxiety or substance abuse.
It's heartbreaking. You feel powerless and confused; it's scary.
And the big question is, what do you do? That's what we ask ourselves. What do we do? Well, my special guest today is AnneMoss Rogers is here with answers.
In this interview, AnneMoss bravely shares her heartbreaking journey of losing her son Charles to suicide. She opens up about the challenges leading up to his tragic passing, her struggles to support him through addiction, and what she would have done differently If only she'd known at the time.
AnneMoss is a dynamic mental health advocate, educator, and speaker. She is a TEDx speaker, and her blog, Emotionally Naked, has reached millions. She is the author of the award-winning memoir Diary of a Broken Mind and the best-selling book Emotionally Naked: A Teacher’s Guide to Preventing Suicide and Recognizing Students at Risk with co-writer Dr. Kimberly O’Brien.

My special guest is Lori Sugarman. She is a Certified Fair Play Facilitator and Family Coach and the author of the recently released book Our Home: The Love, Work, and Heart of Family.
During our conversation, Laurie shared a total mindset shift about how we approach chores in our homes—it blew my mind.

And I can’t wait for you to hear her share about us asking for help and why this can be a setup when it comes to fostering collaboration and mutual support in our homes.
