106 | How Your Child's Diet Impacts Their Behavior with Dana Kay Sep 05, 2022

Show notes

Board Certified Holistic Health and Nutrition Practitioner, Dana Kay, knew right away that her son was different. She used to wake up dreading what kind of mood he would be in. Shortly after, he was diagnosed with ADHD, but the medications weren't helping him.

She was told by her doctor that food wouldn't make a difference with his ADHD, but she chose to try it anyway - and changing his diet was the only thing that worked. She saw a drastic shift in his behavior and his attention span.

Jesse and I have personally seen a very real shift in the behavior and physical health of our own boys after adjusting their diet toward cleaner, more natural foods.

Today's episode with Chris and Holly Santillo discusses the importance of teaching our children independence and resilience in a generation that has become heavily focused on dependency.

Many millennial parents are fearful of allowing their children to live independently because they worry about the disconnect in the relationship. However, Chris and Holly discuss how independence actually creates a real connection between parent and child.

They discuss the importance of allowing our children to explore, to make decisions on their own, to fail and learn from that failure - and so much more.

103 | Dealing with Anxiety as a Christian: Postpartum, Pursuing Peace and 'Is Medication Ok?' Aug 08, 2022

Show notes

On today's episode, I am sharing my own story about how postpartum anxiety turned into over 7 years of deep, intense. anxiety.

I attempted to pray it away, worship it away, talk it away and read it away, but it clung to me and my life. It impacted my marriage and my motherhood greatly and I desperately needed to figure out how to navigate it.

In this conversation, I will walk you through Philippians 4 and five things that we can do as Christians to fight through, reject and rebuke anxiety in our lives. We will discuss resolving controversy and pursuing peace, rejoicing loudly and how being reasonable and understanding can increase our peace.

I also share my own personal opinion on taking medication for mental health. As believers, we are called to pursue peace in the thick of our circumstances, but sometimes we simply feel like we're suffocating. Is it okay to rely upon medication to help?

102 | My Greatest Personal Regrets and 4 Ways to Heal When Your Past Haunts You Aug 01, 2022

Show notes

On today's episode, I am sharing very openly about my past and the decisions that have haunted my memories. I talk about a conversation that Jesse and I had on a road trip about our past relationships, our regrets in those relationships and the embarrassment we feel about our actions. I have been working hard to move past this shame in my life and wanted to bring you guys along for the journey. In this quick episode, I share four biblical ways that you can work in faith through remorse, regret, shame and embarrassment toward healing and joy. I dig into how the Gospel, self-centeredness and people-pleasing can cause us to live in a place of shame rather than in a place of freedom, and how taking our eyes off of ourselves and placing them back on Christ can help to break that bondage.

98 | What Is It Costing You Not to Listen?: Learning to Listen Well in Your Parenthood and Marriage Jun 27, 2022

Show notes

Christine Miles is a former therapist and 'professional listener'. In this conversation, Lindsey and Christine discuss how common it is to learn how to speak as a child, but not how to listen. We are not wired to be good listeners, so we must actively practice listening well because the art of listening can deeply and positively impact our relationships as parents and as spouses.

Christine and Lindsey discuss the importance of speaking when you have something of value to say rather than speaking to fill the space. Extroverts, are you listening? ;) Lindsey asks Christine to teach her practical and implementable ways to make changes to bad listening to enhance her relationships. They also talk about offering solutions when solutions aren't wanted and how this can create a vast disconnect in our relationships.

Christine has recently published an award winning book, What Is It Costing You Not To Listen: The Power of Understanding to Connect, Influence, Solve & Sell that dives deep in how we can learn to listen differently to better understand those in both personal and professional relationships

Christine shares her story of an interest in the art of listening from a very young age and has devoted her lifes work to helping improve listening in our interpersonal relationships.
