We all love to have that friend that tells us life is so hard, but do you have that person that will also challenge you? What if the problem really is you? It's easy to get inside our own heads and hyper-focus. Remember that song, “Hi, it’s me. I’m the problem, it’s me.” Ya, that song is a stab in the gut to admit, but often the truth. 

We've all been there. We have all thought, "everybody has abandoned me, I’m the victim, why is everyone so awful to me?" BUT could this be a tell tale sign that it isn't them? 

Before we spend long days around lots of people we may not "like" let's challenge ourselves with some truths. So we are mentally prepared for awkward moments.

In this week's episode, we are going to look into the words our kids believe. The things our kids do that frustrate us, or make us happy. Do you see a link between their beliefs and your frustrations? 

We as parents can build our kids up and help them succeed when we pinpoint the beliefs, struggles, and lies.  But pin pointing these can be tough. Which is why I am going to share some lies, and some questions for you to ask yourself and keep in your tool box for later.

Grateful Christmas Special is Here!

 I'm going to share some strategies for mom and dad to model gratefulness before Christmas is here. I have strategies to help you feel less "annoying" while reminding your kids to be grateful. And lastly, strategies to help your whole family see a heart shift this Christmas season.

Jenna has lost weight many times.

When she was younger she liked to workout and went to exercise classes. If she wanted to lose weight she could just give up carbs and sugar and the pounds would melt away. She lost 40 pounds doing the Keto Diet a few years ago, and she loved it, but she couldn’t maintain it and over time the weight crept back. Jenna wanted to lose the weight, but more than that, she wanted to have more energy and feel comfortable in her own skin. She was sick of feeling self-conscious and constantly pulling her shirt away from her body. Jenna did the work and has lost the weight, kept it off, and transformed the way she sees herself.

If you haven’t yet, be sure to go back and listen to the previous podcasts in the case study series. Number 81 is about Tara, a self-proclaimed control freak, and how she learned to be less critical and enjoy the journey.   Number 80 . It’s all about where limiting thoughts sneak in and how they affect us. Why do we need to talk about our past anyway?  We dig into that, and I share some of my past and what I learned about my thoughts and feelings.
