Ep.113 - Andrea Davis on Holding the Line When Your Kids Push Back on Screen Limits

Saison 1 · Épisode 113

lundi 4 mai 2026 • Durée 23:23

She gave her daughter a smartphone at 12 and watched her disappear into it. So she took it back. Her daughter cried. She did not cave. Years later that daughter wrote her college essay about finding herself once the noise stopped.

Andrea Davis is a mother of five, founder of Better Screen Time, and the author of Creating a Tech Healthy Family. This conversation is honest, warm, and unapologetic. If you are losing the battle for your child's attention and identity, this is where you start fighting back.

What You'll Hear:

Why early habits and real world values are your most powerful weapon against tech addiction
How to talk to a teenager about their phone in a way they will actually hear
The family tech plan that transformed Andrea's own home
Why fear-based parenting fails and what love-based confidence looks like instead
How to bring a resistant spouse on board without forcing a confrontation
What your kids are quietly being protected from when they do not have a smartphone

Ep.112 - Paul Rose on How Catholics Lost the Prayer That Saves the World | Liturgy of the Hours | Sacred Music | Catholic Tradition

Saison 1 · Épisode 112

lundi 13 avril 2026 • Durée 36:05

Most Catholics have never heard of a prayer so powerful the Church says it saves the world. It is not a private devotion. It is not a popular retreat method. It is the Liturgy of the Hours, and it has been hiding in plain sight, buried under bad formation, bad music, and a Church culture that forgot what worship actually is.

Paul Rose is the founder of Sing the Hours, a podcast reaching 700,000 listeners a month across the globe. He is not a priest or a theologian. He is a husband, a father, and a man who found the ancient prayer of the Church and refused to let go of it. What he shares in this conversation will challenge everything you thought you knew about Catholic prayer.

This episode goes deep. The rubrics most Catholics have never read. The reason our imaginations have been stolen from us. The ancient warrior tradition of sacred song. And why a two-year-old named Carmella holding a breviary in the dark might be one of the most powerful images of how we rebuild Christendom.

What You'll Hear:

Why the Church explicitly states that lay people praying the Liturgy of the Hours saves the world, and why almost no one knows it
How Satan strategically targeted beauty as a transcendental to hollow out Catholic worship from the inside
The shocking rubrics from official Church documents that direct singing, not silence, as the primary mode of adoration
Why King David, the Templars, and the Church Fathers all point to the same truth: sacred song is not effeminate, it is the warrior's duty
How Paul and his wife pray the Hours with their two daughters, one of whom is not yet two and already humming along, holding a breviary in the dark
Why unbridled silent prayer without the Psalms can be spiritually dangerous, and what Saint Teresa of Avila's rule reveals about the proper ratio of song to silence

Ep.103 - Dr. Andrew Abela: Atomic Habits Told You How, Aquinas Told You Which | Catholic University of America | Virtue Ethics | Catholic Business

Saison 1 · Épisode 103

mercredi 7 janvier 2026 • Durée 16:45

Atomic Habits told you how. Aquinas told you which.Dr. Andrew Abela connected the two. The founding dean of the Busch School of Business at Catholic University of America spent years translating Thomas Aquinas for modern professionals, and discovered that the virtues are the super habits behind every meaningful success.What You'll Learn:

• The virtues are the prime habits, everything else is secondary

• Prudence has eight sub-virtues; pick one, practice daily

• Alertness (solertia) is situational awareness, and it's trainable

• Make it easy, make it obvious, make it rewarding

• Chesterton's answer to "What's wrong with the world?"—I amThe Busch School Difference 12 years. $100 million raised. High 90% placement. Graduates making $300K, one making $3 million.

mercredi 25 septembre 2024 • Durée 39:31

In this episode, Dr. Johann D'Souza interviews John Papola, the founder of Emergent Order Foundation and creator of the "Dad Saves America" initiative. John shares his journey as a classical liberal, TV producer, and passionate advocate for inspiring virtue and truth in media. He discusses the importance of early parenthood, free-range parenting, and instilling values of individual agency and responsibility in children.

John also reflects on the challenges he faced during the pandemic and how he pivoted to create his non-profit organization focused on telling "heroic stories that embody classical virtues."

Key Takeaways:

John emphasizes the benefits of having children at a younger age, as it allows for a longer relationship with grandparents and a more relaxed, less-obsessed approach to parenting.
He advocates for "free-range parenting," allowing children to take reasonable risks and build resilience, rather than over-scheduling and overprotecting them.
John stresses the importance of presenting a united front with one's spouse, being consistent with discipline, and avoiding threats that won't be followed through.
He cautions against schools and institutions that promote a "victimhood mentality" and undermine a child's sense of individual agency and responsibility.
John's identity is grounded in his faith, family, and heritage, rather than in external factors like his career or political views, which he is open to questioning and adapting.
He is excited about upcoming projects, including a documentary on the history of public education and an exposé on the state of high school debate.

Ep.15 - Is Daycare Hurting Your Baby? A Conversation with Erica Komisar | Attachment Theory | Motherhood | Childhood Development

Saison 1 · Épisode 15

vendredi 23 août 2024 • Durée 31:19

The mental health crisis among children didn't appear from nowhere. According to psychoanalyst Erica Komisar, LCSW, we engineered it through 75 years of progressively devaluing the one thing infants need most: their mothers.

In a conversation that challenges fundamental assumptions about modern life, Erica Komisar joins Dr. Johann D'Souza of Virtuous Leaders Podcast to examine the neuroscience of attachment, the cultural forces that separate mothers from babies, and the "forever shadow" cast by those early separations. Her clinical experience and research paint a picture both devastating and hopeful - devastating in revealing what we've done, hopeful in showing the path forward.

5 Transformative Insights from Erica Komisar

Infants are born neurologically incomplete, with mothers serving as their central nervous system
How feminism's message shifted from expanding choices to devaluing motherhood
Why early separation creates permanent changes in children's stress response systems
Depression after birth often reveals unresolved attachment wounds from one's own childhood
Why we're the only developed nation treating children as accessories to adult lives
