  • Love the podcast

    Hi I love the podcast. Thanks for the great content. Can you do an episode about how to be a great adult child? Ever since I got married 8 years ago I feel like my relationship with my parents disappeared—they are busy with their lives and I get it. Wondering what I can do as an adult child to communicate how badly I want them to be a part of my life.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

S4 E16: The Hidden Dangers Of Smartphones- With Colin Cole
Q: What practical steps can parents take to monitor and control their kids' phone use while preserving trust?
Parents should become educated about the risks, create a family plan with teen involvement, establish clear rules (phones as privileges, not rights), avoid screens in bedrooms, and promote outdoor and real-life activities; the approach is more effective when teens participate in decision-making and when the whole family commits to the plan.
S4 E16: The Hidden Dangers Of Smartphones- With Colin Cole
Q: Colin, what is the fundamental reason smartphones and social media are such powerful forces in teens today?
Colin explains that developmental biology—specifically the dopamine system and front-to-back brain development—creates a heightened sensitivity to fast rewards like social media and games, which can derail long-term goals and healthy social development without proper guidance and boundaries.
S3 E20: Anxiety Can Be Your Super Power- With Brayden McFadden
Q: Can you explain what makes anxiety potentially beneficial?
Brayden and Mark discussed how anxiety can foster empathy, resilience, and drive, which can turn perceived weaknesses into strengths.
S3 E20: Anxiety Can Be Your Super Power- With Brayden McFadden
Q: What was the motivation behind writing the book on anxiety?

S3 E13: Creating Happiness- With Dr. Dave Schramm
Q: How can we maintain a positive outlook in difficult times?
By prioritizing spiritual practices, being intentional with gratitude and kindness, and focusing on the quality of our attention towards others.
