  • Getting Out of Bed When You Don't Have What It Takes w/ Dr. Alan Noble

    11/03/2024 Duración: 44min

    Every morning, we wake up and we have to decide: Are we going to get out of bed…or not? There are days when it all feels like too much; the trials and tribulations of this world seem insurmountable and the lure of staying in bed and hiding from everything and everyone looks like the only solution. Every solo parent has experienced this feeling of overwhelm and knows… we still have to do it. Our kids are depending on us. Their world can’t run without us. So, how do we get out of bed when we feel like we don’t have what it takes?      Our guest today is Dr. Alan Noble, an associate professor at Oklahoma Baptist University, and co-founder and editor-in-chief at Christ and Pop Culture. He has written for the Atlantic, Vox, The Gospel Coalition, Christianity Today, and First Things. He is the author of multiple books including the one we’re discussing today—” On Getting Out of Bed: The Burden and Gift of Living.” For all the detailed show notes, tips and links visit soloparent.org/show-not

  • How to Tell if Our Kids are Okay w/ Kyle Cruze

    04/03/2024 Duración: 48min

    Fund conversations that matter: donate.accessmore.com  One of the most heart-wrenching parts of parenting is seeing our kids struggle. When our child is dealing with physical pain, we rush to their aid and see what we can do to help. Even if they insist they’re fine, you know a broken bone when you see it. But, mental health is altogether different. While mental illness can and does present itself physically, so much anxiety and depression happens inside the mind. Mental health is a serious topic, that thankfully has become more widely talked about and acknowledged in recent years. We often feel helpless or unsure of what to do when our child is mentally struggling—especially as solo parents. How do we effectively help our kids deal with anxiety or depression in a healthy way? How can we tell if our kids are okay?  Our guest today is Kyle Cruze. Kyle is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in the state of Tennessee. His passion and expertise are with adolescent/teenage boys and their families wh

  • Does Love Feel the Same the Second Time Around?

    26/02/2024 Duración: 41min

    Fund conversations that matter: donate.accessmore.com  Falling in love after loss or a failed relationship is not for the faint of heart. Any solo parent knows life is already overwhelming—and to add a romantic element into the mix can feel risky. Love the first time around is often when you’re young, inexperienced with the world, and marked with abandon, and recklessness. Does love feel the same the second time around? Today, we cover three main points:  1. The experience: How love feels and is experienced post-loss or post-growth.  2. The person: You’re in a relationship with a completely different person, and you’ve also changed as a person.  3. Your former spouse: The coexistence of your love for your former spouse and your love for the next person.

  • Three Ways To Be Intentional in 2024

    08/01/2024 Duración: 39min

    Every January, we make resolutions that we’ll break. We resolve to exercise more, eat better, lose weight, and save money. However, researchers suggest that only nine percent of Americans complete their resolutions. So often, our goals or resolutions are surface-oriented and do not get at the root of the issue. We need focus and direction—we need intention. Instead of setting New Year’s resolutions, what are ways we can set intentions?  Today, we cover three main points:  1) Focus on the heart, not the behavior. 2) Change how you measure outcomes. 3) One word to focus on for the year.
