This week, I (Yvette) hit a wall. Not the dramatic kind, but the sneaky, soul-tired kind where you realize you’ve stopped doing the very things that keep you grounded. In this raw and real-time episode, I open up about losing momentum, skipping meditation, and drowning in the to-do list. But more importantly, I talk about coming back. Not perfectly, but intentionally.

If you’ve been feeling off, inconsistent, or disconnected from your routines, this one’s for you. I share what it looks like to pause, reset, and return to yourself even when the world tells you to keep pushing. Because consistency isn’t about perfection, it’s about learning how to start again, with love.

In this special Father's Day episode. we get real about modern fatherhood. The highs, the struggles, and the heart behind it all. From breaking outdated "Dad Myths" to embracing the everyday moments that shape our kids. This one's for all the dads showing up in big and small ways. Plus, a heartfelt segment on what it means to be a Girl Dad, and how daughters change us for the better.

In this honest and wildly relatable episode, I (Yvette) open up about the moment everything changed—the year she stopped waiting, stopped overthinking, and started choosing herself. Whether you're a parent trying to break generational cycles, an overthinker finally learning to breathe, or just someone trying to reconnect with who you are beneath the survival mode, this one’s for you.

Packed with humor, real talk, and a little emotional gut-punch (in a good way), this episode is your permission slip to stop living on autopilot and start showing up with presence. Because worrying less isn’t about pretending everything’s fine—it’s about trusting yourself enough to live anyway.

Don’t stop. Just start. Keep going.

It was my birthday. And my daughter Lyla’s. Yep—we share a birthday. But this year, something hit different. Instead of shrinking myself like I’ve done for years, I let it be about joy, presence, and pink strawberry cake. This episode is about why so many of us dim our light to fit in—and how my daughter reminded me that we’re not here to shrink. We’re here to shine.

In this honest, funny, and emotional episode, I talk about birthday freebies, hiking with my girls, and finally saying no to people-pleasing. If you’ve ever quieted your voice just to make others comfortable—this one’s for you.

💡 Let this be your reminder to stop shrinking and start showing up fully.

In this episode of The Imperfect Parents Podcast, we break down how poor communication and lack of accountability can look like narcissism-but are often just unhealed behaviors. We share how these patterns show up in parenting, marriage, and personal growth, and how to shift from reaction to reflection. If you've ever been called too sensitive for speaking up, this one’s for you. Let’s talk healing, reparenting, and breaking toxic cycles.

Listen now  you’re not alone in this work. Keep Going You Got This

In this episode, I (Yvette) gets real—like messy bun, overstimulated, “did I just yell at the dog?” kind of real—about what it’s like being loved while unlearning narcissistic tendencies. I share how my husband Christian shows up daily with patience, hugs, and humor as I works through old habits like defensiveness, control, and over-explaining everything. From sacred black table conversations to emotional soft resets, this episode is a raw look at growth, marriage, and choosing each other every single day—even when you’re not at your best.

It’s vulnerable, it’s hilarious, and it’s for anyone who's ever asked, “Am I the drama?” and decided to heal anyway.

In this episode, we’re diving deep into the real work of reparenting and rewiring, what it looks like to unlearn what hurt us and relearn what heals us. We talk about how the way we were raised shaped our beliefs, our reactions, and our parenting, and how we can consciously choose to do it differently. From the everyday moments where our triggers show up, to the internal rewiring it takes to break generational cycles, this conversation is raw, honest, and real. If you're on a journey to heal, grow, and show up better for your kids, and yourself—this episode is for you. You're not broken. You're becoming. And it starts with choosing different.

Keep going, You Got this!  You’re doing the work that changes everything!

Ever find yourself spiraling because your partner got quiet or seemed distant and your first thought was, “What did I do wrong?” In this episode, we unpack how trauma makes you take things personally, misread the moment, and shut down emotionally. 

We talk through real-life examples from our marriage and how we’re learning to pause the spiral, regulate our reactions, and reconnect. 

It’s not always about you—and that’s actually a good thing. 

Tune in to The Imperfect Parents Podcast for the real conversations that are helping couples heal and grow together.

In this powerful episode we sit down for a raw, necessary conversation about phone safety, and why it’s so much deeper than just screen time.

We talk about the first time we handed our child a phone… the fears that came with it… and the uncomfortable but essential conversations we had around social media, predators, inappropriate content, peer pressure, and privacy.

If you’ve ever wondered "How much freedom is too much freedom." or felt unsure about how to protect your child without controlling them—this episode is for you. We’re not perfect, but we’re proactive.

Because in today’s world, the best parenting strategy is education, Boundaries and being brave enough to have hard talks.

This morning, I faced a choice: Stay in bed and stay comfortable.... Or get up and keep building the dream I keep saying I want. In this episode, I walk you through the mental tug of war I had with myself and how choosing discipline over comfort, just this once, set the tone for my entire day. We talk about what it means to truly show up for yourself, your family, and the vision you're creating, even when no one's watching. If you're stuck between wanting change and staying in the familiar, this one's your sign to shift. Your dream is waiting-but the work starts with you. Keep going, You Got This.
