• 035 - Simplifying Isn't Simple
    Dec 20 2023

    Like most things in the modern age, we're sold the idea that it's easy to simplify. But simplifying is a lifelong process. It takes time and consistent effort to realize what is and is not important to you. This podcast digs into why simplifying isn't simple in the age of excess, and how to work toward simplification as a process. Leaning into your authenticity is a means to achieve a simpler lifestyle.

    This is the final episode in Season 2 of the Family Yields Podcast.

  • 034 - Growing Ourselves Up
    Dec 13 2023

    When we become parents, or even as we make our way in the world, it becomes clear that we are all still learning. This reality might not match the inner voices we have telling us we should have things figured out by now, be better at something, or in general get it together in some sort of 'grown up' way. This episode is about bringing self-compassion to our own inner parenting journey, because we all deserve to be held with softness and in our integrity.

  • 033 - Unschooling our Mindset (even if your children are in school)
    Dec 7 2023

    Homeschooling is not a viable option for everyone. Many parents want something different for their children, but are still participating in the school system. The system itself is not interested in changing (there will remain curriculums, teachers, tests, compliance, performative tasks, etc.) even though change is necessary. This podcast is about exploring what transition looks like by using an unschooling mindset to lead us out of an age of public schooling, even if we are still participating in it.

  • 032 - Choosing Curiosity Over Control
    Nov 29 2023

    Many of our cultural patterns and socialization have been established though the use of control. As a result, we as parents, need to rewire our brains to look at situations with curiosity rather than defaulting to tactics of control. This applies to the way we treat ourselves as much as how we treat our children. Until we can re-pattern our brains to view situations without the underlying fears of controlling patterns, we will not be able to show up this way with our children.

    Nov 22 2023

    We often expect children to be resilient without teaching them how. In this podcast I talk about false resilience, how it impacts the nervous system, and how to cultivate genuine resilience in our children...and spoiler alert, it has something to do with our resilience as parents too!

  • 030 - Making Sustainable Change
    Nov 15 2023

    Making the decision to change something and creating the habit of change are two different things. In this episode, Julie Walter digs deeper into how to create the situation where sustainable change is possible. Nature does a great job of modelling what sustainability actually looks like, so using permaculture, she explores how we can use what we see in nature to inform our lives.

  • 029 - Parenting to Perfection: Avoiding Shame by Embracing Self-Compassion
    Nov 8 2023

    No one is the perfect parent. Why do we expect ourselves to be? This episode explores how we can parent with more self-compassion. We must recognize our humanity in our parenting and grow our self-compassion so that we can also grow compassion for our children.

    Self-compassion keeps us out of states of shame and blame and allows us to hold ourselves softly as we create the vision of the parent we wish to be AND hold with softness the parent we currently are.

  • 028 - Cultivating Belonging: Sustainable Community Building
    Nov 1 2023

    A huge part of our human need is to feel a sense of belonging within community. The current models of community, particularly those in schools, do not cultivate belonging, they encourage 'fitting in.' When we forego authenticity in order to 'fit in' we are actually abandoning a true and rooted sense of belonging. 

    " Fitting in is about assessing a situation and becoming who you need to be to be accepted. Belonging, on the other hand, doesn't require us to change who we are; it requires us to be who we are." - Brene Brown

    This episode explores what it means to cultivate belonging in our homes and extending out into our communities.
