Understanding How You (and the People You Love) React to Expectations with The Four Tendencies 1:08:23

21 days ago1:08:23

1:08:23

Today we're discussing Gretchen Rubin's The Four Tendencies - an idea she puts forth about how people tend to react to both inner and outer expectations, whether they readily meet them or tend to resist. As with any method of categorizing how people approach the world, we find this helpful for understanding how we (and the people we love) end up in the same situations over and over again. The Four Tendencies are The Upholder, who readily meets inner and outer expectations, but has a hard time letting themselves off the hook for anything (even when it makes sense to do so) The Obliger, who readily meets outer expectations, but may struggle to stick to goals they've set for themselves The Rebel, who questions both inner and outer expectations and may have a hard time being accountable to anyone The Questioner, who wants to thoroughly investigate any outer expectation before making it an inner one, which they will often stick to We need all of these approaches to the world to make it go round. We each rely on the other strengths to smooth over our weaknesses and vice versa. To find out your tendency, take the quiz here . To read a quick overview of the book, check out this summary by Alex Chen .…

The Family Meeting: How and Why to Start This Ritual Right Away 56:02

7 weeks ago56:02

56:02

We’re big fans of a family meeting: a once-a-week time set aside for discussing everything the family needs. It can be practical, philosophical and everything in between. Whether you start by lighting candles, making waffles or flopping on the couch, it’s a great place for the family to work through conflict in a less-emotional state, build character skills, set intentions and work out the kinks of daily life. It can be as formal or as informal as you’d like - and there’s only one prerequisite - that you do it!…

Bringing Back the Play-Based Childhood and Why We’re Passionate About Limiting Screen Time for Our Kids 1:24:38

20 weeks ago1:24:38

1:24:38

The play-based childhood, essential to thriving in adulthood, has been on a rapid decline in the past few decades, priming the way for a phone-based childhood. We discuss the reasons we as parents feel we have to overprotect kids and how to talk ourselves through that in order to bring back a real childhood for our kids: real connections, real play, real experiences and real goodness. We are not zero-screens families, but rather value giving our children the experiences they need over simulated interactions that leave kids anxious, depressed and worse. Much of this discussion is based on the book The Anxious Generation by Jonathan Haidt , and we recommend you read it! If you want more info on the necessity and joy of play for kids and adults, check out this episode.…

“Find out who you are, and do it on purpose.” We’re taking Dolly Parton’s words to heart and determining the first part of our personal brand - which develops over time to help inform us as to where and how to spend our limited time and energy. We’re diving into questions like: “What is your purpose and your passions (long term and short term).” “What are you known for?” “What do you want to be known for?” “How are your spending your time lately?” “What are you up to/listening to/ interested in/ excited by?” “What’s on your list for your life?” “What’s on your list for this season?”…
