Adventure: Creating Life-Giving Experiences for Your Family Jan 12, 2023

Show notes

The everyday mundane has a knack for keeping us comfortable. Before long, we forget to take risks, do something out of our comfort zone, or prioritize activities that actually bring us life. That's why we felt it fitting for the final episode of our Words That Matter for Your Family series to end with the word "adventure." When was the last time your family did something adventurous?
In this episode, we talk about:

How thinking, feeling, and relating all at the same time influences brain growth
The reward of saying "yes" to a hobby, risk, or decision that challenges you
How "adventure" helps your kids internalize their faith and love others well
The relationship between having fun and gaining empathy and how the two go hand-in-hand

Purpose: How to Live On Purpose, Not By Accident, As a Family Jan 05, 2023

Show notes

There is a hard truth we all have to come to grips with: If you don't get intentional about the direction of your family, the culture will decide it for you. A culture that values individual achievement at the expense of the family unit results in families who are exhausted, fragmented, and directionless. But what if each individual's purpose in life was meant to be discovered, not outside the home, but within it? And what could this look like for your family?
In this episode, we continue the Words That Matter for Your Family series, by talking about the word "purpose" and how your family can live on purpose, not by accident.
We talk about:
• The one question that matters more than any other to determine if you’re really living on purpose
• How our values lead to our purpose
• Specific ways we (the Straub’s) live on purpose in our family
• How to cultivate your heart, make your inner circle smaller, and become more "weird"

Teachable: How to Cultivate a Teachable Spirit in Your Home Dec 29, 2022

Show notes

Isn't it wild how we, as humans, are drawn to prioritizing a growth mindset...well, that is, until someone (a spouse, child, coworker, or friend) delivers us some unwelcome constructive criticism. Can we be teachable when it's tempting to be offendable? How we respond as adults may very well be what we cultivate with our kids.
As we continue the Words That Matter for Your Family series, this week we talk about the word "teachable" and why it matters for your family.
We talk about:

The interconnectedness of teachability and calm
How and why saying sorry to your kids is the gift that keeps on giving
How to let go of self protection when your spouse points out a flaw
Being curious about what you don't want to learn and processing it in prayer

Resourceful: Raising Confident, Not Entitled, Kids Dec 08, 2022

Show notes

Do you want to work yourself out of a job as a parent? Best selling author and educator Esther Wojcicki describes the one rule she used as a parent with her three daughters, "Don't do anything for your kids that they can do for themselves."
As we continue our series, Words that Matter for Your Family, we talk about the word "resourceful," and why training your children to accomplish tasks on their own develops confident, but not entitled, kids.
In this episode we talk about:
- The specific ways it pays off when you intentionally teach your kids resourcefulness
- The "I do, we do, you do" model of kids learning to do things on their own
- The patience it requires to let your kids try things on their own
- How to come alongside your kids and supervise when they don't do something right in a way that doesn't make them feel incompetent
- The importance of teaching your kids to bring you solutions when they present you with a problem
