The Positive Talk Podcast

Last week, on the Positive Talk Podcast, we discussed what happens when our kids have a meltdown. In this week's episode, Julie and Chuck unpack how we can assist our children through a meltdown and how we can parent so that each meltdown can be redeemed. If you are a parent, then you have felt the guilt of the big question - Am I failing as a parent? NO! You need a few tools to help you lead and love that allow you and your child to move forward in a more positive direction. Join Julie and Chuck for this super-helpful conversation!

If behavior is a form of communication, what are our children telling us when they have emotional meltdowns? And let's face it, every parent has been there - their child's meltdown.

Even the best of parents can’t always avoid their child having a meltdown, but we ALL can learn how to respond positively in ways that set our family up for success.  

It is possible to stay connected with your child while setting clear boundaries during a meltdown.  

Join Chuck and Julie as they discuss brain-based approaches to moving through meltdowns in a meaningful way.

The Meltdown. That time when your frustration, anger, exhaustion, and impatience collide, and you just have a complete meltdown. We’ve all had them, and it’s not pretty. In this week's episode of the Positive Talk Podcast, Julie and Chuck help us avoid more meltdowns, and positively recover from them. Because recovering from a total emotional meltdown can seem like the most impossible of tasks. But, with a little conscious thought and gentle self-care, it is possible to get back on the horse again after a meltdown. Join the conversation as Julie and Chuck merge FAITH & PSYCHOLOGY on the Positive Talk Podcast.

The life you desire to create is directly proportionate to your ability to tolerate its opposite.

The world is such a terminal state of change, and we all hate it when change is done to us.

The Positive Talk Podcast merges faith and psychology to help our listeners discover a more peace-filled and purposeful life!

Welcome to change! For some of us, change is what we crave. But for some, change is a trip through "ulcer gulch."

People don't always refuse change because they don't want to change. More often than not, people refuse to change because they believe they can't change.

Understanding the nature and phases of change can help us navigate our way through healthy change, with healthy mindsets. 

Join Julie and Chuck for this power-packed, two-part series on CHANGE CAN BE SO HARD!

It is difficult to wrap your head or heart around pregnancy and postpartum mood disorders. On the one hand, the world wants you to be your happiest self. On the other hand, you can feel defeated, hopeless, and often, helpless. It's not simply a mother's challenge. Men experience this in significant ways as well. Back in the day, we knew this as the "baby blues," but today, we recognize this as a tangible season of mental and emotional distress that can impact every facet of you and your family. Relationships, decisions, even the smallest of choices can become monumental efforts. But there are some positive ways out of this season. Join Julie and Chuck for this week's conversation, as they merge faith and psychology, once again on the Positive Talk Podcast.

Everywhere we turn, it feels like we are all walking on the edge of depression. With the constant instability of this ever-changing world in which we live, we could all use a positive word. If you or a loved one, maybe even an acquaintance feel like you are on the edge of depression, and need a little encouragement, join Julie Homrich, LPC for this powerful discussion.

YOU ARE NOT ALONE!

Let's face it, we all deal with anxiety. Some more than others, but the real question is the same for all of us. When is anxiety actually anxiety, and how do I recognize it, face it, and redeem it? Join the conversation as Julie Homrich unpacks "ANXIETY" in this week's episode of the Positive Talk Podcast.
