Build Family Connection – Details, episodes & analysis

Our circumstances aren't always great, but we can work in the messes and keep moving forward. If you've got a cross country runner or love to run, then you'll want to listen. And if you're not, you'll still want to listen.

Talking to our kids about scary world events can be overwhelming as a parent. Listen in to this episode for a 3 step framework you can use to guide you in tough conversations.

When was the last time you stopped to think about how good you are? It's probably been a while. Even when you mess up, you are GOOD. And, your family needs this imperfect version of you-- not some idealic, perfect, wannabe creation that you carry around in your head.

I’m curious. Is it easy or more difficult for you to connect with your kids-- especially the one who challenges you? For us, there is a lot of variation. Sometimes building a relationship is easy and sometimes we struggle more.

In today's we are talking about one barrier that might be getting in the way of strengthening relationships with your people. Listen in and please, share with a friend!

Your kids want a relationship with you. Yes, their friends matter a whole lot and sometimes appear to be more important than anything else. However, they deeply care about their relationship with you.

The problem is, sometimes they feel totally stuck. They think the only way to connect with you is to do everything you want in the way you want it done. Think about that for a minute.  Are they right?

Feeling overwhelmed or defeated by your goals for the new year? Don't let that stop you from progressing. In today's episode, we talk about a few options for moving forward that do not require a complete overhaul of our lives and families.

Our guest Becky Kemp shares with us the power of words and how they can impact how we feel heading into this new year. She offers 3 words to act as guides as we move forward and create personal change.

Listen in for words of encouragement from our guest Lynnette Sheppard as we wrap up 2021 and begin our journey into a new year.
