Pride Month

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2024/06/12

This is unusual for me. I almost never feel the need to talk publicly about issues that feel political or contentious. But today I feel inspired to share my thoughts about Pride month, and the way we think about LGBTQ issues. I hope this episode will inspire more love and understanding in our family relationships, as well as our church community. Here are the resources I mention in the episode: Listen, Learn and Love by Richard Ostler Without the Mask by Charlie Bird

Acceptance is not the same as Giving Up

2024/06/05

When I suggest acceptance, sometimes clients think I mean that they should just give up and allow any and all behaviors. That is not at all what I'm suggesting! Listen in today to figure out why learning to accept our present reality is the first step toward creating the result you want. If you want a review of "the Model," you can listen to episode 26.

A Sweet Reminder

Today I have a big announcement, and a sweet reminder for you. The talk I reference was "Jesus Christ is the Strength of Parents" by Elder Dieter F. Uchtdorf.

From the Inside Out

2024/05/22

Sometimes as parents I think we get it backwards. We focus on changing our kids behaviors without really understanding their hearts. Today's episode is a reminder that behavior is always an outward sign of something going on inside. If we really want to influence our children, we need to get to the heart of the matter.

What's the Point

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2024/05/15

This is a classic question in my house-used heavily when Caleb lived at home. Today we're talking about learning to zoom out and ask ourselves "What is the Point?" It's a way to broaden our perspective and help us stay focused on the things that really matter. The point of life is to gain experience that will help us grow in wisdom and become more like our Heavenly Father. The point of parenting is to use our influence to point our children to Jesus Christ. The point of family relationships is JOY

The Lens and Language of Possibility

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2024/05/08

Today's episode is inspired by a talk I heard at BYU Women's Conference this year. I'm talking about the power we have as mothers to speak possibility into the hearts of our children, and all those around us. Quote from C.S. Lewis: "It is a serious thing to live in a society of possible gods and goddesses, to remember that the dullest, most uninteresting person you can talk to may one day be a creature which, if you saw it now, you would be strongly tempted to worship."

The Other Side of the Story: Josh Davis

2024/05/01

This is the fourth episode in the series of interviewing my own kids. Josh is 21 years old, and has been through a lot. Heads up: we talk about some heavy things in this episode, including substance use and thoughts of suicide. I'm just so proud of him for how far he's come, and for his courage to tell his story.

Trusting the Process

2024/04/24

Heavenly Father has designed a wonderful plan that includes learning and growing by our own experience. Part of that plan includes the natural process of maturing. Just as we cannot force a plant to grow before it's ready, there are some things we cannot teach our children before they are mature enough to understand. Sometimes we, in our enthusiasm to be good parents, feel the need to teach every little thing using a system of rewards and punishments. But the truth is that, if we provide the right

Your Most Important Job

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2024/04/17

It's no secret that being a mother is a demanding job. But there is one thing that I've observed will get mothers feeling frustrated, overwhelmed and resentful faster than anything else: trying to control the wrong things. In today's episode we'll identify some of the things that are not your job to control, and we'll talk about the one thing that is always yours to control. That thing is, in fact, your most important job. Link to my book here.

Surviving a Slump

2024/04/10

I find myself lately in a bit of a slump. It's not the first, and I know it won't be the last. So today's episode is kinda for you, but kinda for me. I'm sharing some of my tried and true strategies for getting through a slump in as healthy of a way as possible.

As a Woman in the Church of Jesus Christ of...

2024/04/03

Chances are, you're aware of some controversy surrounding the recent general Relief Society broadcast, and some things posted on the church's Instagram page. For me, it has been a good catalyst for personal reflection. How do I feel about these issues? What is my experience as a woman in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints? How can I use these questions as an opportunity to deepen my faith? This episode is my response to the controversy. Some conference talks I reference in the episode:

Savannah Davis: the other side of the story

2024/03/27

This is another one of those super fun (for me) episodes where I interview my kids. Today you'll meet Savannah. She is 24 years old, about to graduate from BYU, and is a single mom to 1 year old Marceline. She is strong and courageous and compassionate. I look up to her so much! I think you'll love this conversation with Savannah.

Having No Opinion

2024/03/20

Did you realize that it's an option to not have an opinion about some things? Not only is it possible, it's a really valuable skill to have! Today we'll talk about when, why, and how to use "no opinion" as a tool to lower stress and improve relationships.

What You Really Want

2024/03/13

The scripture I chose for my mission plaque is still a favorite: D&C 58:27-28 "Verily I say, men should be anxiously engaged in a good cause, and do many things of their own free will, and bring to pass much righteousness; For the power is in them, wherein they are agents unto themselves." If we want to truly be agents unto ourselves, if we want to really maiximize the gift of agency, then it is important that we know what we really want, and that we choose to do the things that will help us to get

The "Ideal" Family

2024/03/06

I recently went to Hawaii with my family for vacation. And guess what I learned? Even in paradise, my family isn't perfect. HA! There is no such thing as an ideal family, unless we change our definition of what that means.

Becca Greer

2024/02/28

Having my son Caleb on the podcast was so much fun, I have decided to bring on as many of my children as I can. Today's conversation is with my oldest daughter Becca, who is just an incredible person. We're talking about her memories of our home as she was growing up; about what worked and what didn't. She has some pretty great insights.

The Lord's Storehouse

2024/02/21

Sometimes when life feels heavy, we WANT to turn our burdens over to the Lord, but we just don't know how. I created this guided meditation as a tool to help you release some of the negative emotions that you may be carrying around. If you hate meditating, you can just skip this one ;) But for me, practicing meditation has been a game changer in learning to still my heart and my mind and connect with God in a whole new way.

When Life Feels Heavy

2024/02/14

Being a human has never been easy. And with the world as chaotic and noisy as it is these days, it makes sense that sometimes life can feel overwhelming. Thankfully, God has not left us alone. Through His spirit and the words of His prophets, He has given us tools for thriving in these "latter days." We know what to do when life feels heavy. Here are the talks I reference in the episode: "Joy and Spritual Survival" by Russell M. Nelson "Happiness, Your Heritage" by Deiter F. Uchtdorf "Revelation for

Interpretation of Tongues

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2024/02/07

Today we're talking about the gift of "interpretation of tongues," but not in the way you're probably thinking. All of us hear peoples' words or observe their actions, and we make it mean something. If we leave our brains unsupervised, our interpretations can often be unhelpful. Being intentional in how we interpret the words of others is a gift we can cultivate. It's a skill that helps us develop charity and creates better relationships. Moroni 7:45

Don't Forget to Remember

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2024/01/31

Maybe it's my age, but I find it hard to remember things sometimes. Even really important things. Apparently, Laman and Lemuel had the same problem. We have been counseled many times in the scriptures to remember. In today's episode, we're talking about why that is really important counsel for faithful parents. Henry B. Eyring's talk here.
