Join us as we discuss a challenging topic: When struggles happen!
 
Let's get right to it! When struggles happen, it's usually because our kids aren't doing what we want them to do. Parents often have an agenda and kids often don't have that same agenda. 
 
There's a big difference between reacting vs responding and we discuss this in detail. We also dive into how the disparity between our priorities vs the needs of our children is often what creates struggles.
 
We share our simple (but oh-so-effective!) strategy for responding to struggles when they arise. 
 
3-Step Response Strategy
Stop and take a break Take responsibility and get curious Co-create a plan together  
Using this 3-step response strategy and working through a struggle is often the best form of learning that our children can experience. Don't forget to celebrate working through a struggle together!
 
This last season of our podcast is for homeschooling parents, traditional school parents, and everyone in between. This is our last season and definitely our best season!

Beyond That, The Sea by Laura Spence-Ash
ChatGPT told me I would like this and they were spot on! I listened to it and loved it.
Maren: 
Ergonomic Kneeling Chair
This takes the pressure off my lower back and hips while working at my computer! Also great for ADHD because I can rock. That small movement helps me focus!

Join us as we discuss devices, technology & screens!
 
We know this is a hot topic and one that can often be heated. It's complicated and encompasses an ever-changing landscape. 
 
What is it about screens that captivates our kids? A sense of community, autonomy, and dopamine are three key words to keep in mind. Our world is technology-dependent and connected so it's important that we empower ourselves and our kids, and get curious while we seek to understand this issue. 
 
Together, let's dive into the following:
Our kids are watching us and our relationship with screens. Like it or not, we are modeling for them! It's critical that we teach media and tech literacy. It's essential that we create a plan together, with our kids.    
This last season of our podcast is for homeschooling parents, traditional school parents, and everyone in between. This is our last season and definitely our best season!

The Tortured Poets Department
Almost two months later, this album is still a bop. 
Maren: 
Death and Other Details
I have become a TV show snob, and this show checks all the boxes for me! This is a locked room murder mystery, which grabs my attention every time. Almost the entire season 1 takes place on a yacht. It unfolds the present timeline with family, financial, and social drama, plus jumps back to a previous unsolved murder very much entangled with this one. The vibe is Knives Out meets Succession.
