"I typically love everything you guys have to say, but the part about modesty in your last episode was disappointing. We are trying to teach our kids (girls- it’s always just girls) to be who they are and love themselves, but then we tell them exactly what that should look like. We define modesty and tell them if they respect themselves they’ll cover up. We tell them they aren’t responsible for the thoughts of others, but they need to consider the message they’re sending. You mentioned the importance of intention (totally agree with this), yet ultimately it was irrelevant if your daughter chose to show more skin that you wanted her to. Can you see how messy y’all made this? I think you need a redo. What if we teach self love and self respect and let our girls decide what that looks like? What if we focused on the intention behind their clothing and left it at that? What if the focus of the LDS church on defining modesty is exacerbating the problem? What if we all just left it alone?"

"I have been listening to Brannon for about 3 years and he talks about radical acceptance. I am a betrayed wife who is stuck at this point. I have gotten a drip disclosure over a timeframe of 3 years and think I have accepted my husband's betrayal and then one day it hits me hard like it's new information all over again. It's been 7 months since the last piece of his adultery was disclosed. Would you please talk more on acceptance and why people get stuck there. Thank you so much I have learned so much from your podcasts. You both are truly amazing."

"I was raised in a religious conservative home. Pornography was sin, sex outside of marriage was sin and only for the marriage bed. My dad never talked to me about my body or being confident in it. We were directly taught to be modest but indirectly we were taught shame of ourselves and our bodies. Taboo like nudity's constant association to sex have riddled our minds with a lack of confidence in our own bodies. Of course this negativity is only doubled down on by the perceived perfect body images of stardom, Hollywood, pornography and marketing. It wasn't until I was nearly 30 that I became confident and happy with my own body and only recently did I become confident with (as funny as it is) my chest hair. With most of the religious from my generation being raised with skewed sexuality, how do we raise our children with confidence in their bodies and a proper perspective of nudity and sex while still adhering to scripture's mandates?"

"I run a recovery group that consists mostly of parents with grown adult children who struggle with addiction. What are some principles and tools you can suggest to help them know how to support their children best? How do they have conversations with their children about their addiction that would be healthy and helpful? How can they show concern for their children and genuinely ask how they are doing without causing defensiveness that they are "checking on" their children? Are the principles of holding and expressing boundaries different with this relationship dynamic? They particularly struggle with blaming themselves, and they see where they may have had a role in making mistakes as a parent that may have led to their child's addiction. What truths do they need to know to get out of blaming themselves while acknowledging hard truths?"
