  • Gave me a whole new way to think about

    I recently discovered Don’t Mom Alone and loved Heather’s conversation with Jennifer Barnett. The idea of using the “other half of our brain” to connect with and hear from God gave me so much to think about. I love conversations that don’t just encourage me, but give me a new way to understand something I deeply care about. This one did exactly that. So good!

  • Mean girl episode was unhelpful

    It’s shocking how little help there is out there for helping your daughter deal with mean girls. I had mid hopes for this but it was just like everything out there already. No helpful tips, it was basically directed at girls who were once in the mean girl group and got kicked out and she said in her practice she helps girls figure out how to get back in by reconnecting with one of the “minions”. First of all, the mean girls do so much real damage to really sweet, kind, incredible girls-they des... more

  • My New Favorite Podcast

    This has become a go-to listen while I work. For humor, relatability, advice, perspective - I have enjoyed every guest and every conversation that I’ve listened to. I love that there’s a baseline culture and spiritual standard of the conversations, yet there’s an awareness and openness to all who may think differently. Talking about the subject of parenting with moms is sensitive, but this is done so well. Thank you for this!

  • A weekly must-listen!

    So thankful and blessed a friend introduced me to this show while I was pregnant with my first over 2 years ago. I consistently bring this podcast up to my friends because I find every episode either directly applicable to my life or providing a thought-provoking topic. Thank you for what you do!!

Understanding Your Teen: What’s Normal and How to Stay Connected *top 10* :: Dr. Nell Bush [Ep 596]
Q: I would love to hear any just tips you have for parents. I know we've kind of sprinkled them throughout. If there's anything you want to make sure you said before we were done.
Bush recommends explaining puberty before it begins, modeling balance across the four areas of development, linking increased independence with increased responsibility, and maintaining family routines such as regular meals together.
Understanding Your Teen: What’s Normal and How to Stay Connected *top 10* :: Dr. Nell Bush [Ep 596]
Q: Can you, I know you have these pillars of development. I'd love for you to share with us and talk us through so we have something to stand on, on what's typical for our kids.
Bush describes physical, cognitive, social, and emotional development, noting that the timing and experience of adolescence vary among children. She explains how changes in each area can affect teens' behavior and relationships.
The Pressure to Do It All: Motherhood and Work :: Melissa Harrison [Ep 594]
Q: What messaging does 4word give your women to help them lessen attention and pressure?
Harrison recommends stepping back to understand personal triggers and where the pressure to measure up comes from. Journaling, reflection, and talking with a therapist or coach can help identify those roots and support change.
The Pressure to Do It All: Motherhood and Work :: Melissa Harrison [Ep 594]
Q: Was there a season when your professional life and your personal life felt really difficult to kind of hold together?
Harrison describes her mother's murder when she was in her mid-20s, while she was working as a news anchor and reporter covering crime. The experience made her question whether she could continue the work while processing grief.
When Kids Go Off Script :: Vela Tomba [Ep 595]
Q: What's one step she can take towards peace today?
Tomba recommends meditating on Psalm 34 and considering the stories of other mothers included at the end of her book, which do not all resolve neatly.
