The Problem With Being Nice

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2025/10/22

We all like to be nice. We like to be helpful and supportive. But sometimes, in our efforts to make others happy, we end up taking responsibility for their emotions. Unfortunately, no matter how hard we try, we can't make another person feel happy, or confident, or calm. And sometimes, when we try too hard to be helpful, we end up walking on eggshells and damaging the very relationship we were trying to improve.

Plenty of Time

2025/10/15

One of the most common things that I see sucking the joy out of family relationships is the constant worry and anxiety that we as mothers sometimes carry around. We feel an urgency to make sure our kids are thriving and doing things the right way. It sounds nice, but it's often counterproductive. Today I'm reminding us all about a truth that President Dallin H. Oaks taught in the recent general conference.

Our kids learn more from who we are than from what we say. This is especially true during the teenage years, when they start to tune our words. Today's episode is about how to teach teenagers skills of emotional resilience, without them even knowing they are being taught!

2025/10/01

With the passing of our dear prophet, President Russell M. Nelson, I have been reflecting on the many precious things I have learned from him. While his general conference talks were not specifically issued as "parenting advice," his wise and inspired words have helped me so much in my parenting, and in my family relationships. Today I'm sharing how I have applied his teachings to my parenting, and recognizing how profoundly I have been blessed by following a prophet of God.

Limiting Beliefs

2025/09/17

What if you were wearing smudged lenses, but you didn't realize it? You would think that the world just looked dirty! Today I'm talking about how the things we believe create our reality. As we become aware of beliefs that create negative results in our lives, we create more options for ourselves. We can, if we choose, let go of limiting beliefs and choose beliefs that open us up to new possibilities.

Acting vs. Reacting

LIKING the people you LOVE ·

2025/09/10

The Book of Mormon tells us that we are agents to act, and not just be acted upon. (2 Nephi 2:26-27) But when the people around us are being difficult, sometimes it's hard to take full responsibility for our own agency. We all know that we are responsible for our own actions, but sometimes I think we forget we are also free to choose our thoughts and feelings. Today I have a couple of suggestions for you, to help you get better at acting, instead of just reacting to your circumstances.

Today I'm sharing a practical tip that helps when our kids are in a stage that we don't love. It's tempting to set rules or consequences that try to change their behavior. But if we jump to that too quickly, we may be missing out on valuable insights and the chance to connect on a deeper level.

Today's conversation is a topic that consumes a lot of my brain space and heart space. It's important to me that I do my best to get the gospel deep into the hearts of my teenagers. My guest is my new-ish friend Rachel Tucker. I consider her wise and faithful, and a someone I always love to learn from.

2025/06/25

I'm all for being prepared. I'm a planner and a think ahead-er. And sometimes, that makes my life easier and better! But sometimes, planning ahead- for things that could go wrong- actually makes life worse. Today we're talking about common scenarios where trying to prepare ourselves for the worst case scenario is not helpful at all. I'll give some real life examples, and provide what I think is a more useful strategy.
