What Are You Afraid Of? Oct 31, 2023

Show notes

Kim and I have a phrase that we talk about in our marriage book: Name it to tame it. It’s the idea that when you say your fears out loud you take away some of its power over you. It was the inspiration for today’s podcast about naming what you are afraid of... without getting too heavy. I promise this is a fun podcast episode.

We also call this exercise "naming the tarantula" - more on that in the pod. Another inspiration for today’s podcast was a recent video we did about Halloween costumes in the 80s. I have a fear of clowns and when we asked our followers for their throwback photos we realized: EVERYONE WAS A CLOWN. Whyyyy?

What are you afraid of? Name your tarantula and tell us! Call 323-364-3929 or email us at podcast@theholdernessfamily.com.

Fixing Your Craving Mindset with Michael Easter Oct 24, 2023

Show notes

In our society of overabundance, we are constantly craving more, more, more. For me, I can't stop scrolling. It’s like a slot machine, but in this case, the slot machine is my phone. You know you can get something of value, you know you’ll eventually get a reward if you keep trying, and oh boy can you play it over and over again. Luckily, we had Michael Easter on the podcast this week to talk about fixing our craving mindset and rewiring our habits.

What Are Our Dogs Trying To Tell Us? with Victoria Stillwell (feat. Dr. Jessica Pierce) Oct 17, 2023

We’ve all done it – looked into our dog’s eyes and wished we knew what they were thinking. We enlisted the help of our dear friend, Victoria Stilwell. She is the dog-training mastermind behind the hit show It’s Me or the Dog, the Victoria Stilwell Academy, and many other projects. She’s a big deal in the dog-training world and we were so excited to have her on this week’s podcast.

Just Because with Matthew McConaughey Oct 10, 2023

Show notes

We have a very special guest joining us for today's podcast. Academy Award-winning actor and New York Times bestselling author, Matthew McConaughey! Matthew graciously gave us some of his time to talk about his new children's book, Just Because. (It's fabulous and you can get it wherever books are sold.) We talk about dreams, creative inspiration, his Greenlights Grant Initiative, and if his three children finally think he is cool. (Spoiler alert, he may be with the rest of us parents on that. Even though he is Matthew McConaughey.)

For more on the Greenlights Grant Initiative, visit here: https://www.greenlightsgrantinitiative.org/. Big thanks to Matthew!

Penn Sings The News Oct 03, 2023

Show notes

Recently, we put out a song parody in response to Taylor Swift showing up to watch Travis Kelce at the Kansas City Chiefs game. (The rush of a deadline is exciting for Penn’s ADHD brain as well as both of our former news journalist backgrounds.) After we hit publish on the video, we kept getting the same comment: "I wish you would sing every news story!"

On this week’s podcast, we explore the idea of how it would sound if Penn sang the news and he gives us a behind-the-scenes look at his writing process. Listen to the three news stories we sing about and tell us what you think. Should we start making this a regular series? Let us know by calling 323-364-3929 or emailing us at podcast@theholdernessfamily.com. And if you like this podcast, please consider leaving us a review!

Turning Kids Dreams In Entrepreneurship with Jess Ekstrom Sep 26, 2023

Show notes

I like to think I am a recovering ‘snow plow’ parent. You’ve heard of helicopter parents that hover over their children, right? Well, instead of just hovering, you remove all the obstacles for your kids in order for them not to experience disappointment. I think it’s hard for any parent to see their kids struggle, but the struggle is what builds resilience, right? This week on the podcast, we interviewed Jess Ekstrom to hear her story in entrepreneurship and her new book, Create Your Bright Ideas, for tweens and teens.

A piece of advice I love from Jess is around “safe falls.” Jess is a new Mom and her daughter is learning to walk. She said that she knows she can give her daughter more room to explore and test her new found skill when she knows she can fall safely. Jess said that’s the same for kids and entrepreneurship. You have to let them try on their own, especially when they can fail safely.

Listen to our talk with Jess and tell us know what you learned! Let us know by calling 323-364-3929 or emailing us at podcast@theholdernessfamily.com. And if you like this podcast, please consider leaving us a review!

Blockbuster, Perms, and Whatchamacallit Sep 19, 2023

Show notes

Who remembers what it was like to walk around the mall on a Friday night and seeing all your friends? It takes so long nowadays for my friend group to make plans. I miss the days when there was a standing social event you could just show up at. You couldn't text anyone to say you were there. You did laps around the mall and got to enjoy the surprise and delight of seeing people you knew. This week, Penn and I decided to avoid my anxiety and make Top 5 lists. What 5 things do you wish came back and what 5 things should never come back?

Tell us what you miss about days gone by (and what things should just say away forever.) Also, should this be our new thing? What should we make a top 5 list about next? Let us know by calling 323-364-3929 or emailing us at podcast@theholdernessfamily.com. And if you like this podcast please consider leaving us a review!

Changing How We Talk About Death with Hadley Vlahos, RN Sep 12, 2023

Show notes

Penn and I have had our fair share of interactions with hospice as our loved ones grow older. There are so many people who don’t always have access to hospice care in the way they would like. But one thing I do know, the nurses who care for us in our final days are a special breed. One of these special nurses is Hadley Vlahos, a registered nurse devoted to hospice care.

Hadley (or Nurse Hadley as she is known online) recently wrote a New York Times best-selling book The In-Between: Unforgettable Encounters During Life's Final Moments and she joined us on this week’s podcast. She writes about the life lessons she gained from her patients and the phenomenon of “the in-between.” These are the days where it seems people have one foot here on Earth, and the other somewhere else. It turns out, you can learn a lot about living from the dying. We talk to Hadley about some of her stories in the book, our own experiences, and her efforts to change the way we die with her non-profit, Hadley House.

Helping Kids (And Us) with Failure with Michelle Icard Sep 05, 2023

Show notes

I am constantly wavering about being proud of my kids for good grades and feeling overwhelmed with how much work they have to do. The same goes for sports as I’m the loudest one cheering on the sidelines, but sometimes brought to tears when they have a hard loss. We wanted to discuss how to deal with setbacks, so we brought Michelle Icard onto the podcast to tell us how to turn failures into character-building moments, something she lays out in her new book, 8 Setbacks That Can Make a Child a Success.

We talk about teen archetypes, the value of having a poker face, and the 3-step approach for problem solving common failures. It’s important to schedule a time to talk, share your own mental health journey, and try to keep your face emotionally uninvested as your kid shares their feelings.

How Well Do You Know Your Partner? Aug 29, 2023

Show notes

When you've been married for a long time, it's hard to learn something new about each other. Luckily, our producer, Ann Marie Taepke, joined us this week on the podcast to help. Inspired by our friends, Shawn Johnson and Andrew East (who did this on their podcast recently) we play "How Well Do You Know Your Partner?"

Learn what I have pretend fights about, Penn's worst vacation, and why Penn thinks he married a cat. (I agree, by the way.) Also, do this with your partner by using the questions on our blog post: https://theholdernessfamily.com/how-well-do-you-know-your-partner/ (and you can see the photo of our first date!)
