Transparency: Owning Your Impact in Relationships

Season 5, Conversation 5: You Said They Could Tell You Anything… So Why Don’t They? You told your child they could tell you anything. What did your reaction teach them the last time they did? In this conversation, I share what my daughter taught me about trust: how I respond today can make it easier for her to come to me next time. We’ll talk about hearing our children out, handling what they shar...

In this conversation, we’re looking at the distance that can grow when parenting becomes mostly instructions, responsibilities, and correction. We’ll explore what it means to enjoy our children, take an interest in their world, and build connection beyond what we expect from them. Because children can be well provided for and still feel personally unknown. If you took away every conversation about...

Before children learn how to speak to themselves, they learn by listening to how we speak to them. In this conversation, we’re examining how repeated words, labels, comparisons, jokes, criticism, and even our tone can shape what children eventually believe about themselves. We’ll confront the difference between correcting behavior and attacking identity—and why accountability should teach a child...

In this conversation, we’re examining how unhealed childhood wounds can quietly influence the way we correct, protect, control, and connect with our children. This isn’t about blaming our parents or condemning ourselves. It’s about recognizing the patterns so our children don’t have to carry pain they didn’t create. The question is: Are you parenting the child standing in front of you—or are you s...

Now, we’re opening the door to one of the most personal relationships of all—the relationship we have with our children. This season isn’t about telling anybody how to parent. It’s about holding up the mirror. In Conversation 1, we’re preparing our hearts to look beyo...

After an entire season of talking about communication, accountability, intimacy, listening, conflict, and whether you still even like the person you love, we have arrived at the question that changes everything: If you met your spouse today—with everything you now know—would you still choose them? But don’t stop there. The deeper question is: Have you remained someone worth choosing? In this jaw-d...

You Love Each Other… But Do You Still Like Each Other? When Love Starts Feeling Like Routine You love each other. You’ve built a life together.

Absolutely, friend. 💛 Conversation 3 needs a description that makes men feel invited , not attacked, while still letting them know: we're going there.

Some people don't miss you because they loved you the way you deserved to be loved... They miss you because you made their life easier. Whew... I know. That one hurts.
