The shouldvereadthefineprint's Podcast

Hello Fine Listeners of SRFP!

Blended families are defined as any family that has brought a child of any age under a new parents' roof. Our family is a little bit more complex than that... Finally, getting to the heart of our experiences as step parents and parents steering a blended family!

Hey Everybody, big welcome back!

We are breaking into a new season of life in podcasting. This episode we are going to be making sense of why we judge the world around us. Is it okay? Is it detrimental? Is it pointless?

You gotta listen in to find out our take! We are so glad you decided to join us!

Hi Everybody,

There is so much we are living for and intending to do in life and the road of life is long and full of stories. Many of us remember the challenges we have faced and remember fondly the moments of joy and love. While we are out there living there comes moments of chaos too. Sometimes we make mistakes that have serious consequences or sometimes things just happen that turn our world temporarily upside down. There are times in life that can be described as a crisis.

We will talk about how to respond to crisis and reality check about how we can navigate the feelings as one occurs. 

Come have a listen!

Hello Good People of SRFP,

We are back again with an episode about our own accountability because what we see more often than not is that children do what the see, more so than what they hear. While we teach our youth many things by passing on information, we see them taking on characteristics that are not intentionally taught, but passed to them through example. Does that mean we need to clean up our act? No. Well, yeah maybe, but the fact is, we all blow it sometimes and how we react matters maybe more than how often we get things right or wrong. 

Come on in and close the door behind you to have a listen to what we believe is the secret sauce to our success as good role models for our kids! (can't believe I said "secret sauce")

 

Thanks again for being here and wanting to be better with us!

Hi there fair and fine listeners!

This week we are dilineating between healthy and unhealthy conflict. When resolution is the mutual goal, we have a much better chance at moving forward with someone we love despite differences of opinion. Unfortunately, most of us have, or have had someone close to us where our efforts to reconcile always seem to fall short, or quickly fall apart.

Sometimes we accept that the battle cannot be won because the separate parties' desires are just not mutual. So then what? Disengagement from a person who seems to hound us with more and more troubles simultaneously halts adding fuel to the fire while giving us space to breath and reflect on our personal well-being.

Come have a listen to hear what that disengagement looks like, how to maintain it, and when you know its working.

Thanks for being a part of the SRFP community!

Hello Beautiful People!

It is cheesy and possibly taboo to be talking about "love language", but thankfully for you, we have maximized the value extraction, all with our usual, carefully balanced concoction of sincerity and irreverence. Truly, it matters to us how others express their love for us. Some people need hugs while others would prefer gift cards. There are no wrong ways to love someone, but it goes a long way in understanding how people in our lives desire to have your love for them shown. It can easily get lost in translation when you are not aware of how a person interprets your expression of care and love, so let's break this conversation open.

This is a fun, entertainment podcast about how hard normal life stuff can be. If you gain insights and life hacks along the way, all the better! Just remember you are incredible, and you are doing such an amazing job.

Thank you for the cool loan on those lovable earlobes:)

Hi Everybody, and welcome! It is our pleasure to invite you into our heads each week as we piece together the way our lives feel more purposeful and meaningful. This week however, we are inviting all to observe the oddities and wonders of dreams. What does it mean when Jesus greets you in the form of a bumpkin? Or what about when you keep ripping people's hair our of their head? And yes, it can be quite terrifying dealing with a tree... especially a tree with boobs.

 

Thank you all so much for tuning in. All the likes,

Jason and Kimberley

Hello Fine and Fair Listeners!

A normal life consists a series of chapters, divided into unique moments that ebb and flow to create our whole story of  being. While we journey through our own lives, we encounter trials, troubles and tribulations, and few, if any individuals live a life without them. Often in these struggles we experience leave a lasting hurt called trauma. 

Although it is perfectly reasonable that we try to avoid these moments to spare ourselves the suffering that trauma can cause, we inevitably end up having to deal with painful experiences along the way. Despite the way it appears, the traumas we experience also have something positive to give us.

When our limits are tested, we learn the limits we set on ourselves are not concrete. We can grow beyond what we know of our own strength.

While trauma is not something we desire, and our inevitable encounters with it in life make us want to avoid it, we are often indebted to it for forcing us to turn the page in our story, and discover new chapters that could never have formed without its effect.

Hello Wonderful Listeners!

  Getting together with my favorite sister-in-law this week to follow up on a year in the life of COVID19. This episode includes swearing, shenanigans, and "special sauce". It may not be your typical SRFP episode, but once in a while it is refreshing to just allow ourselves to be plain, unpolished, and crude. :)

  We are always so grateful for our community listeners. You are the finest creatures this world had to offer and we adore all of you! Thank you, thank you, thank you!

 

Until next week,

Hi Everyone!

 

This conversation is about the good stuff of parenting. That's right, we are celebrating the big moments and the small so if you're in the mood for some levity, you are in the right place. 

 

Thank you as always, for the use of your lovable, lovely ears.
