    Ep. 3 | GUIDES & CHAIRS: The Frameworks for Raising Boys

    Welcome back to the Boy Mom Book Club! Have you ever wondered why your son responds the way he does, why he seems to shut down during a conversation, or why the way you naturally show love doesn’t always seem to connect? You’re not alone, ladies! In this episode, we dive into Chapters 3–4 of Mother & Son: The Respect Effect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs. We explore the G.U.I.D.E.S. framework, the five respect languages, and the C.H.A.I.R.S. framework to better understand how boys may experience respect and connection. Join Victoria as we consider practical ways to recognize what matters to our sons, communicate respect in ways they can receive, and build stronger relationships without expecting every boy to fit the same mold. Because understanding our boys is not about getting everything right. It’s about paying attention, growing in wisdom, and learning to love them well. Read. Reflect. Raise. Grab your book, take what helps, and pull up a seat at the table. Let’s learn together!

    Ep. 2 | Grace, Willpower, and Letting Go of Perfection in Motherhood

    Welcome back to the Boy Mom Book Club! Have you ever started your morning with the best intentions—determined to be patient, stay calm, and handle things differently—only to find yourself frustrated before the day has barely begun? You're not alone, ladies! In this episode, we dive into the introduction and Chapters 1 and 2 of Mother & Son: The Respect Effect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs. Join Victoria as we talk about the “willpower trap,” the patterns that shape our parenting reactions, and why sometimes the answer isn't simply to try harder. Together, we'll explore how to replace self-criticism with curiosity, take responsibility for our responses, and keep growing in grace and accountability. Because we don't have to get every moment right to keep learning how to love our boys well. Read. Reflect. Raise. Key Focus: Moving beyond perfectionism and learning to respond to our boys with grace, truth, and intention. Grab your book, take what helps, and pull up a seat at the table. Let's learn together!

    A Special Episode | When Our Hearts Break for a Community

    Some weeks, we need to make room for something different. This week, my heart has been heavy as I’ve thought about the children, families, educators, and community affected by the tragedy in Bend, Oregon. Through my own connection to the families, this loss feels especially close to home. In this special episode, I’m setting aside our usual book club conversation to pause, grieve with those who are grieving, pray for those who are hurting, and consider how we can offer meaningful support while respecting the privacy of the families involved. Romans 12:15 reminds us to “weep with those who weep.” We don’t need perfect words to show up with compassion. Sometimes, we can simply pray, listen, give, and remind those who are hurting that they are not alone. If you feel led to support the affected families, any verified fundraising information I’m able to share with permission will be included in the episode resources. May we lead with grace, love our people well, and hold this community close in prayer. https://www.gofundme.com/f/support-family-of-injured-silver-rail-child Boy Mom Book Club — Read. Reflect.

    Ep. 1 | Welcome to Boy Mom Book Club | Read. Reflect. Raise.

    Welcome to Boy Mom Book Club! 🎙️ What does it look like to raise boys with intention while continuing to grow into the women God has called us to be? Boy Mom Book Club is a place for honest conversations, meaningful books, biblical wisdom, and the women who want to raise boys well—not perfectly, but purposefully. I'm Victoria Bryson: a boy mom, physical therapist, and Christian who believes we grow best when we're willing to ask better questions, learn from one another, and put what we learn into practice. Around this table, we'll talk about the beautiful, hilarious, humbling, and sometimes hard parts of loving and raising boys. We'll learn from books, explore faith and practical wisdom, welcome different generations and perspectives, and make space for both grace and accountability. And you don't have to be a mom to belong here. If you're a grandmother, aunt, stepmom, teacher, coach, mentor, or simply a woman who loves a boy and wants to do it well, there's a seat for you. Our first book series begins October 19 with Mother & Son: The Love and Respect Effect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs. We'll read, reflect, ask questions, and consider how to put what we're learning into action. Optional Book Bundle and Bible Study Bundle resources will be available for those who want to go deeper—but you don't need to buy a book or finish every chapter to belong at this table. Because we don't have time to mess around. We're walking in our purpose. Read. Reflect. Raise. Follow the podcast, connect with us on Instagram at @boymombookclubpodcast, and join the email list at boymombookclub.com. No shame. Room to grow. Grace for the journey. Pull up a chair. There's room at this table.
