Do your kids typically favor one parent when it comes to...EVERYTHING?! "Mom, can you..., Mommy, I need...., Mama, I don't feel good." Sound familiar? Go ask your father! If you can relate, this episode is for you. If you cannot relate, you're in luck, because this episode is for you too.

This is not a discussion about gender roles per se; however, it is interesting how certain responsibilities gravitate to one parent versus the other. How did we get here? Sure, women are naturally more nurturing than men, and men are a little rougher around the edges (typically), but that doesn't seem to solve the mystery. Also, is it fair that women (typically) bear the responsibilities of caring for the children, the husband, and the home? Maybe that's changed too.

We had a meaningful discussion with James & Tonya Johnson about our family dynamics, and the importance of each parent being a responsible contributor when it comes to the children. Even with the best of intentions, somehow the children seem to develop a preference for one parent over the other...at least in their younger years. We had fun with the discussion, and, more importantly, we grew.

Grab your spouse, mate, or anyone that might benefit from this conversation and watch it together. We'll be waiting to discuss your perspectives in the comments. Be blessed, Fam!

Does your relationship have the keys to a healthy work life balance? Many couples start and end their days with brief, superficial conversations. "Good morning, have a good day," or "how was your day?" Now there's nothing wrong with these questions, but they are often used to check the 'communication' box in the relationship. Most of us spend the majority of our day with people outside of our relationship, or, at least, channeling out attention to others. We don't even notice that the relationship is eroding until it hits a critical point.

Does it get any easier if you work with or run a business with your spouse? On the one hand, the time away can shield the other from the daily frustrations of the workday. On the other, spending 'too much' time together can be the source of angst and frustration for many. But wait, how can you spend too much time with the one you have chosen to spend your life with (for the married crowd)? How do you manage your career, family, and romance without going nuts?

We had a meaningful discussion with James & Tonya Johnson about the highs and lows of working together, and if 'balance' is even a thing. In its most literal form, balance means that the opposing forces are equal, and nothing is moving. Life typically leans more toward 'what needs attention, gets the attention.' However you define a healthy state, the important thing is for couples to agree on what that looks like, and remain accountable to each other to ensure the boundaries are honored. It's a dance for sure.

Men vs Women, but only in jest. We had a meaningful conversation about the 'default parent,' and how that can drain one parent, and possibly strain the relationship between the parents. Full episode soon come. 🖤

Repost from

I’ll preface this with: I’m a hypocrite.

Later in life, after many partners, I saw the logic in waiting until marriage. Every partner you take on influences your sexual preferences. It’s easy to find yourself expecting the best of all those previous experiences from your spouse…and judging them accordingly. However, the explanation in this video is very practical. A lofty idea, maybe…but solid nonetheless.

Thoughts?

You and your spouse are spending quality time in the bedroom when a kid bursts in with an emergency (as they see it). Who are they most likely to address and ask for help…mom or dad?

We're losing our primary source of income, and it feels...weird. At least that's the feeling at the time of this recording. Neither of us are overly concerned or overcome by the black cloud of doubt, yet. In a sense, we've been preparing for the next phase, but there's something about knowing the date when that phase technically begins. We also have five children that like to eat all day every day!

For Derek, the biggest struggle is attaching to a new professional identity. The corporate life has been rewarding, but at some point he got lost in the throws of success. Similarly, Kisha has struggled with a similar professional identity crisis since she became a stay-at-home mom in 2007. That's a long time to carry such a burden, but this commonality will help them find the common ground as they work through the tough conversations ahead.

Grab your spouse, mate, or anyone that might benefit from this conversation and watch it together. We'll be waiting to discuss your perspectives in the comments. Be blessed, Fam!
