  • “What Does My Child Need?” :: Amy and Dr. Jeffrey Olrick [Ep 480] Summer of Mentorship Week 4

    “What Does My Child Need?” :: Amy and Dr. Jeffrey Olrick [Ep 480] Summer of Mentorship Week 4
    Jul 29 2024
    Do you feel like all the parenting books and formulas do not apply to your child? Is there embarrassment over public behavior that causes conflict? Are you longing for a deep connection with your kids that lasts into adulthood?

    Today we revisit my conversation with Amy and Jeffrey Olrick. Jeffrey is a clinical psychologist who specializes in working with children and families and uses his knowledge in the science of healthy human development mixed with faith to help us in our family relationships.

    They go through the six needs of every child and share a compass to help you find your way when it gets challenging. Jeffrey compares our walk through life to a long and challenging trek with our kids where we can get off course but can use these tools to get back on track and build deeper relationships with our kids. He came to the Lord through Matthew 11:28-30 which says, “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light”.

    We can take this to heart in parenting and in life that God wants us to be in right relationship with our kids and He has strengthened us with the Holy Spirit to do that job well.

    Summer of Mentorship Discussion Questions:

    • What stood out to you in this week’s episode?
    • Which of the 6 needs is the most hard for you to do with your kids? Why do you think that is the case?
    • Jeffrey talks about sanctification through parenting. Can you reflect on one way you have been sanctified (free from sin or purified) through parenting? Share that win with the group and celebrate how the Lord has changed your life.
    • What are some things in parenting you’ve been looking for a one-size-fits-all solution for?
    • Can you shift your question from “What should I do?” to “How can I be with this child?” That process may start by sitting with the Lord so you have the grace and patience to be with your child in hard spaces. Ask the Holy Spirit for the ability to know what each kid needs at each moment.

  • How to Stay Calm with Strong Willed Kids? :: Kirk Martin [Ep 479] Summer of Mentorship Week Three

    How to Stay Calm with Strong Willed Kids? :: Kirk Martin [Ep 479] Summer of Mentorship Week Three
    Jul 22 2024
    I love Kirk’s realistic approach to parenting. He understands what your home dynamics are like. And gives practical tips. After listening to today’s episode you will have at least three different “tricks” to apply.
    Most of all, I’m thankful for the new perspective he has given me. Kirk helped me recognize how emotionally invested I was in my boys’ behavior and freed me from the need to regulate their behavior for them.
    The last couple days I’ve enjoyed the boys more. I’m also less tense and frustrated when we are out in public. In fact, I may need to go back and listen to this episode more than once, so it sticks!
    This episode originally aired in May of 2015
    Kirk came back on the show multiple times. Check out additional episodes here.
    What we chat about:
    • Kirk’s realization that he needed to focus on his own behavior and stop trying to fix his son’s strong-willed behavior.
    • The switch he made from training 1500 kids in his home to training parents to calm themselves.
    • The one thing you can do today to de-escalate a tense situation in your home.
    • How to calmly handle your child’s meltdown

    I can only control one person in life, and that’s me.

    • How motion changes emotion–helping little ones calm down b/c they don’t know how to “think” their way out.
    • What to do in the middle of Target aisle 3 when your child freaks out
    • Handling a tantruming child when his siblings are fighting and another needs help with homework and dinner is cooking (Heather’s daily 5 pm reality).

    If you don’t care enough about yourself, to take care of yourself physically, emotionally, spiritually. . .why would anyone else care?

    • How sometimes parents want good behavior so badly, they are too invested in it and give children too much control.
    • How to be an impartial giver of wisdom.
    • Write down your emotional triggers & do the opposite of what you normally do.

    Summer of Mentorship Discussion Questions:
    • Discuss Kirk’s realization that he needed to focus on his own behavior and stop trying to fix his son’s strong-willed behavior.
    • If you struggle to stay calm when your kids are out of control, what are some of your triggers?
    • Which of Kirk’s ideas to de-escalate a situation is most realistic for you? Thinking about how motion changes emotion.
    • How did you react to Kirk’s idea of being an “impartial giver of wisdom” instead of being so invested in how your kids behave?
    • Spend some time working through a part of your day that is most challenging or a situation with a particular child and brainstorm ways you could respond differently. Share with others in the group and get their ideas if you are willing.

  • Sidetracked with Makayla Noble :: Cynthia and Heather [Ep 478]

    Sidetracked with Makayla Noble :: Cynthia and Heather [Ep 478]
    Jul 15 2024
    On September 20, 2021, Makayla Noble, a world-champion cheerleader, suffered an injury that resulted in a severe spinal cord injury. Both Cynthia and I were part of her extended community and were getting updates on her healing journey and how to pray for her. Today we have the honor of interviewing her to see how God has used her life to glorify Him even when things don’t go as planned.

    From the moment of her accident, Makayla felt the overwhelming peace of God, that He was going to take care of her and had a plan. She has mourned her physical body and what she thought the future would look like but remains in the truth that “God is not done with me yet”. Come along with us as we hear Makayla’s story.

Nowhere but up

I really enjoyed it. As a mom who struggles with illness, chronic fatigue, and anxiety, this episode provided a lot of encouragement. I am looking to the Lord to find the fruits of the spirit and I'm glad I started here
