24 | Hey Dad... Let's Talk About Celebrating

All smiles for today's episode! Today Dad and I talk about intentionally celebrating and making memories as a family. When you're raising kids- whether they are young, teens, or grown- things can feel heavy and hard at times. That is why it is so important to take time to encourage and celebrate one another. It takes intentionality but today Dad gives great wisdom on this topic. Today's convo will lift your spirits and maybe even make you want to go out and buy some whipped cream! Press play to ...

23 | Hey Dad... Let's Talk About Comparison

As I scroll any app this time of the year, first day of school pictures and newly decorated dorm rooms fill my feed. It’s really easy to look at the bright smiles, new outfits, and brand new bedding and assume that everyone else has their life together. On today’s episode we chat about the comparison trap - how we can recognize it in ourselves and ways to fight it. You aren’t the only one who battles this- so many other parents do too. Comparison can slowly chip away at our mental health but the...

22 | Hey Dad… Let’s Talk About Intentional Community

The beginning of the school year usually means schedules get busier. Between extra curricular activities and homework, there isn’t much time left for anything else. It’s easy, as parents, to put our heads down and do what needs to be done on our checklist. Get the kids to school, go to work, pick the kids up, cook dinner, fix lunches, read books, do bedtime, and everything else that comes between! So how as parents are we supposed to be intentional with our relationships? We talk often on the po...

We are backkkkk! We hope you've had a great summer full of friends, family, fun and some good A/C! (At least if you live in the South where it's been hot as all get-out!)

Throughout the month of June we will be re-airing some of our greatest hits from season one! Today's episode is a re-air of episode 13! Today we have a VERY special guest and her name is... Mom. Just kidding, her name is Mika, but she is Mom to me. She is wife and best friend to Toby and Honey to her grandkids. She is loved by so many and I am elated that our podcast family (that's you!) is getting the chance to glean from this woman's wisdom. Up until this point, Dad has shared a lot about his ...

Throughout the month of June we will be re-airing some of our greatest hits from season one! Today's episode is a re-air of episode 8! In a world full of filtered photos and targeted ads, how can we really see ourselves how God sees us? We are prone to look in the mirror and just see what everyone else sees- to see the things we think are wrong or the things we think need fixing. And then, how do we even begin to help our kids with this same thing, if we struggle with it as adults? Press play an...

15 | Hey Dad… Let’s Talk About Tragedy

When tragedy strikes, in any form, how as parents should we handle it? What do we say to our kids? For me it is easy to freeze up and say nothing because I am unsure of what to do. For others, you may handle it differently. Just a day or two before this episode was recorded, the tragedy in Uvalde, Texas took place. Press play and listen as I talk to Dad candidly about how to stay mentally healthy during times of tragedy. Donate to the victims and survivors of the mass shooting at the Robb Elemen...

14 | Hey Dad... Let's Talk About the Transition to Summer

As we move into the summer, a new season brings fun and excitement! But these types of transitions can also bring about changes that may feel overwhelming or just unknown. In this candid conversation, I talk to Dad about the expectations and pressures I feel as a mom when it comes to summer and how I don't always know how to handle them. To be honest, we recorded this on the first day of summer when all of my kids were home and it made recording a podcast pretty interesting. So you just might he...

12 | Hey Dad... Let's Talk About "Irrational" Fears

Y'all know what it's like to have an intrusive thought that scares you so badly, you mentally head into a downward spiral? Or you have a child who is so scared of the dark, they won't go in a room on their own? What about a teenager who is about to take on new responsibilities- a job, a move to college, etc- and yet they just don't seem to be themselves? Maybe you keep these "irrational" fears, which seem very rational in the moment, locked up inside and actually don't know where to go from here...

We are comfortable talking and sharing about this topic but we know that it is often viewed as a taboo thing to discuss.

10 | Hey Dad… Let’s Talk About Seeing Others the Way God Sees Them

If we don’t feel worthy of God’s love, of God’s generosity-if we don’t see ourselves the way God sees us, we will never be able to see others the way He sees them. And treating others the way God treats us is really what it’s all about, wouldn’t you agree? It’s the Golden Rule and most people would say “do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” But what does that mean for you and me? How can we live out the Golden Rule in our everyday lives? And how can we model this for the kids in ou...

A big question that parents often have is, "How do I help my child develop and grow in their own faith?". On today's episode, we talk about just that. It's a topic that, as a parent, you may feel uncertain about. And maybe you just have never had anyone to discuss this kind of question with. Well, settle in, press play and listen to Dad give his two (or three) cents of wisdom. I promise you'll walk away with multiple helpful nuggets that you'll want to keep in your back pocket as you begin or co...

Identity can be a word that get's thrown around and honestly can feel... daunting. As a parent, we have a huge responsibility to nurture the identity of our children and help our kids really understand WHO they are and WHOSE they are. But how do we practically help our kids understand how God sees them? What does that look like in the day to day? Dad answers that question today and I know you're going to want to press play and give today's episode a listen. SHOW NOTES: Are you more of a visual p...

Sometimes it feels like a lot of work to build and maintain healthy relationships. But these relationships are essential for our mental and emotional health. When we are too busy, too tired, or too stressed out, it can be hard to find the time to build those relationships. In today's episode, Bailey and Toby talk about why community is so important.

Does your world feel a little heavy? We know the feeling. We have experienced moments where we've felt like somebody should get a 15-yard penalty for piling on. If you are a church leader, your families are feeling it-and if you are a parent or a teacher-your kids are feeling it. Join us as we talk about this very topic- feeling overwhelmed when things that are out of our control seem to be spiraling around us. We don't believe, not even for a second, that we were created to feel overwhelmed by ...
