In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy explores the benefits of reading aloud to children. Drawing from various research studies, she highlights the positive impact of reading on children's vocabulary, reading comprehension, and reading motivation. One study even found that parents reading to their kids as young as one to two and a half years old can predict their future language skills. Additionally, children who are regularly read to from a young age enter kindergarten with exposure to significantly more words than those who are not read to. Tune in to learn more about the importance of reading to kids and how it can shape their development.

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, Dr. Kathy explores the topic of recalibration in light of some new policies in Flint, Michigan. The school has recently implemented a ban on cell phones and hoodies, citing safety concerns and a need for students to focus in class. Dr. Kathy delves into the reasons behind this ban and discusses the larger issue of banning certain items or behaviors. She also highlights similar policies in other countries and explores the challenges of navigating the digital world while balancing online and offline engagement. Tune in to gain insights into the importance of recalibrating and finding a balance in today's digital age.

Today’s episode is a special episode that I have recorded all about the transformative power of journalling. Journalling is a practice that I’ve been recommending for many years. Doing it regularly can help improve sleep, lead to better decision making and reduce symptoms of anxiety and depression. It has also been shown to decrease emotional stress, make it easier to turn new behaviours into long term habits, improve the quality of our relationships and, ultimately, help us lead more mindful and intentional lives.

My hope is that this episode will help you understand the key benefits of journalling and some of the ways in which you can get started. The key - as with all new behaviours - is to experiment and find out what works best for you.

In order to celebrate the launch of my own journal ‘The 3 Question Journal’, I outline what I consider to be the three most impactful questions that you can ask yourself every morning and every evening. Answering these questions will take less than 5 minutes, but doing so can prove transformative. Journalling helps you step outside of your life, in order to reflect on your life. And so, whatever your current goals are, the path towards them becomes clearer.

Journalling is a practice that I myself do regularly and my hope is that this episode inspires you to start.

How would you like to think with greater clarity, feel confident in your choices, and finally be capable of sticking to good habits? Today’s guest might just show you how.

Shane Parrish is the entrepreneur and wisdom seeker behind Farnham Street and The Knowledge Project podcast, where he focuses on mastering the best of what other people have figured out. He is also the author of the wonderful new book, Clear Thinking: Turning Ordinary Moments Into Extraordinary Results, in which he shares timeless insights and actionable tips, to help us all make better decisions in every aspect of our lives. 

When we think about decision-making, we probably think of those big choices in life as the ones that matter: what subjects to study, which job to take, house to buy or partner to settle down with. But Shane asserts that it’s the smaller, everyday decisions that really shape our path. Choices like what to eat, how to respond to a tricky email or how to tackle a tricky conversation with your partner. And why these matter is because they become our customary, quick-fire responses – behaviours or habits, which we struggle to change because we don’t fully understand that we’re even doing them.

This doesn’t mean we have to take time to ruminate over every situation in life. Shane introduces the concept of personal rules as a powerful tool to override the ‘four defaults’ driving most human behaviour: emotions, ego, social pressure and plain inertia. 

Overcoming them usually means relying on willpower. But rules – such as bedtimes, food choices, or technology limits – help us easily align decisions with our values and goals. Rules are just one of the super-useful hacks Shane shares. We discuss the difference between high-stakes decisions and quick-fire choices. He introduces the powerful notion of playing life on ‘easy mode’ to put us in the best position for success – like setting the difficulty level on a video game in your favour.

Shane also talks about the importance of separating problems from their solutions. And he advises appointing your own ‘board of directors’ – real, historical, famous or fictional people whose opinion you’d value. ‘Consulting’ them on dilemmas will give you new perspectives.

Shane’s ethos is all about finding the hidden opportunity in ordinary moments. In a world where our lives and minds feel increasingly cluttered, his advice can cut-through and help us find clarity.

Today, we're diving deep into a topic that's all about helping you achieve your goals and build habits that last.

I know you're here because you're on a journey of self-improvement, and I'm here to guide you through it. But hey, I'm not your typical motivational speaker. My goal is to help you truly understand yourself, your brain, and those sneaky ways you hold yourself back. And then, we'll talk about how to fall head over heels in love with the action-taking process.

You see, there are two ways to chase those dreams. First, you can go all-out, put your head down, and push yourself to the limit. It's what most of us do, right? But sometimes, that can lead to burnout.

The second approach? That's where the magic happens. It's about falling in love with the journey itself. We'll explore the dopamine reward system, a game-changer when it comes to motivating yourself and making those actions stick.

Dopamine is your buddy in this process, and you can learn to release it whenever you want. We'll chat about how to celebrate those small wins along the way, making your journey enjoyable and rewarding.

Successful people you admire? They're not just in it for the money. They're in love with the daily grind, the process, and that's what keeps them going. We'll break it all down for you.

So, if you're ready to level up your mindset and make your goals a reality, hit that play button and let's dive in.

Welcome to today’s episode of The Mindset Mentor Podcast today. We are going to talk about some thing that I call “The Great Purge”. 

The great purge is all about doing a deep cleanse of your mind, your relationships, and your environment… and and the way you start this process is by simply looking at each of those things and asking yourself one question:

“Is this serving me? Or is this stealing my energy?”

But it’s not serving you, nor giving you energy, and is, in fact, sucking the energy from you… I’m going to recommend you completely eliminate that thing from your life.

And yes, sometimes that’s going to be very hard. Not just when its relationship to either, maybe something that’s been holding you back is more like an addiction, or a bad habit, like alcohol. It’s time to make some adjustments.

The reason why you wanna do this periodically throughout your life, and not just once a year it’s because as you live your life, you are developing new habits meeting, new people and finding yourself and you places. Which is a really cool and exciting thing, however, it is crucial that if you want to protect everything that you are working hard to become, then you need to reassess these things periodically so that you don’t find yourself spending time having to unlearn habits, or go through the heart aches, later.

You are strong, and you are on a powerful journey, and this is just a part of it. In this episode, I’ll give you everything you need to know in order to sort through all of this, and by the end of this, you will also know why you did it all for to begin with.
