In this another insightful episode of the Pumped Up Parenting podcast, I sit down with board-certified health coach Mike Vera to explore the hidden dangers of excessive screen usage on both mental and physical health. We dive into how screens disrupt our natural circadian rhythm, impact sleep, and contribute to health issues like "text neck" and blue light exposure. Together, we share practical tips for parents to limit screen time, create healthier home environments, and model intentional living for their children. Mike and I also discuss the broader influence of digital platforms, including the role of "influence engineers" in shaping our lives and the need for critical thinking, especially for parents raising children in a digital age. Tune in for valuable insights on fostering healthier habits, protecting your family's well-being, and empowering your kids to think critically in today’s screen-dominated world.

Have you ever felt like you’re drowning in a sea of conflicting parenting advice? One minute you're told you must do things one way, and the next, a "parenting expert" on TikTok tells you the exact opposite. It’s enough to make any parent feel like they’re failing before they’ve even begun. That is exactly why I am so thrilled to introduce our brand-new mini-series, Raising Eyebrows. My "partner in crime" for this journey is the wonderful Dr. Kailey Buller, a double board-certified physician in family and emergency medicine who has delivered hundreds of babies and lived through the newborn chaos herself. We are here to help you question authority, trust your gut, and finally dispel the myths, the meltdowns, and the misinformation that is roaming this world out of control.In this first episode, we’re diving straight into one of the most polarizing topics in the parenting world: breastfeeding. We’ve all heard the "breast is best" mantras, but what happens when it just doesn't work for you? Dr. Kailey and I get real about our own "defective boobies" and why your maternal mental health and stress levels are actually far more important to your baby’s well-being than the nutritional content of a single bottle. We talk about how the real keys to breastfeeding success aren't actually about your body at all — they're about your support system, your resources, and your time. It’s time to stop the shame and recognize that formula is one of the most regulated foods on the planet; whether you breastfeed for a week or a year, your baby is going to be wonderful.We also pull a comb through the confusing world of starting solids, debunking the myth that you need to be a gourmet chef or spend three hours on meal prep. We share the truth about baby-led weaning, why "banana guacamole" might just be your baby's new favorite dish, and why gagging is a totally normal part of the learning process — not a sign that your baby is dying! Raising a child should be fun, and it starts when you stop comparing your "behind-the-scenes" to someone else's curated highlight reel. Remember, you are the answer to your child’s needs, and as long as they are breathing, growing, and loved, you are doing a great job. Raise those eyebrows, question the noise, and join us as we bring some peace and laughter back into your parenting journey.Join me in our free "Be A Better Parent" Skool community at skool.com/beabetterparent.

We’ve all seen the headlines about the mountain of college debt, and it’s enough to make any parent freeze in their tracks. It’s so easy to feel overwhelmed and just push the conversation into a corner, but avoidance is a giant monster that only grows the longer you wait. My guest, Brian S. Eyster, the visionary behind the G.R.A.D. Process, joined me to pull back the curtain on how you can navigate the path to higher learning without sacrificing your own future or your hard-earned retirement. We talked about how a problem is really just a topic you haven't sliced into small enough pieces yet, and how facing the reality of college costs now, rather than waiting until senior year — is the greatest gift you can give your future self. Brian walked us through his simple, powerful system designed to recapture costs and inefficiencies that most families don't even know they're losing. We dove into the "G.R.A.D." acronym - Gathering insights, Recapturing costs, Achieving results, and Direct monitoring to show that paying for school is not a "set it and forget it" Thanksgiving turkey. It’s about packaging and positioning your child for the best offers while making the IRS a teammate through legal and ethical tax strategies. We even dispelled the myth that you have to write a massive check upfront; just like your house or your car, college can be financed in a way that is congruent with your actual cash flow so you don't end up with a "pile of lost money" in your 60s. The most important takeaway for every parent is that you need to have a system in place to remove the chaos and the 11 p.m. arguments with your spouse. We talked about the power of setting clear expectations for our kids, teaching them that water isn't free and money is a real, finite resource. By creating unity between parents and having an expert like Brian fight for you against universities that might low-ball your offer, you can move from a place of anxiety to one of empowerment. It’s time to stop flying by the seat of your pants and start building a path where your children become the confident, self-reliant adults we need in this world.

The holidays bring out a lot. Extra noise, extra stuff, extra sugar, and a whole lot of pressure on you to hold it all together. In this class replay from our recent This Holiday Reset Your Stress series, we talk about how to create boundaries that actually stick, feel kind, and protect your peace without drowning in guilt or feeling like the “mean parent.”In this session, I walk you through what healthy boundaries really are and why they are an act of love, not punishment. We talk about how to set clear expectations before the big feelings show up, so your kids know what to expect with gifts, routines, and holiday plans. We look at the problem of “too much stuff” and how clutter in your home creates clutter in your brain, along with simple ways to clear things out together before even more arrives.We also dig into bedtime and the “one more thing” spiral that keeps you trapped in negotiations when everyone is already exhausted. You will hear practical language you can use to stay calm, stay kind, and still stay firm, whether you are talking to your kids, your partner, or extended family who may not understand your limits yet. My goal in this class is to help you feel confident holding boundaries that line up with your values so you can enjoy a calmer, more connected season.If you want to watch the full Holiday Stress series and get access to all the class replays, come join us inside our exclusive Be A Better Parent community on Skool.

I’m so excited to share this conversation with you because, let’s be honest, we all hear about the mountain of things we’re "supposed" to be doing with our money, and it’s so easy to just get overwhelmed and do absolutely nothing. My guest, Lori Atwood from Fearless Finance, joined me to pull a comb through all that tangled mess and show us that a problem is really just a topic you haven't sliced into small enough pieces yet. We talked about how avoidance is truly the worst thing for your family's future, and that building confidence doesn't happen overnight — it’s built through the small, brave steps you take to face your reality without an ounce of shame.Lori walked us through her five foundational steps that work whether you're making millions or just starting out, starting with the simple, heavy math of making sure you spend less than you earn each month. We dove into the difference between having a few thousand dollars tucked away for those "oopsie" moments, like a burst pipe in the yard, and building a true emergency runway for the big life shifts like job loss or health issues. It’s all about being realistic and knowing who you are; if you love that cup of coffee, include it in your plan so you don't mess yourself up by pretending you won't buy it.The most powerful part of our chat was realizing that the best things in life aren't things at all, and that your general contentment is actually the biggest driver of your financial health. When we’re unhappy, we often go looking for that quick "pop" of excitement in a new purchase, but that's just self-medicating a gap that needs a real plan instead. Lori reminded us to put our own oxygen masks on first by prioritizing retirement saving, because our kids don't want to have to pay for us down the road — they want us to raise them into self-reliant, financially savvy adults. It’s time to stop flying by the seat of your pants and start using a system that brings peace and laughter back into your home.Ready to detangle?

We’re beginning a new chapter together. Pumped Up Parenting is now Be A Better Parent, and this first episode under our new name leans right into the question so many parents ask in quiet moments: “Why do I feel like I’m failing, and what can I actually do about it?” I take you through the real-life pressure points — those nights you wish you hadn’t yelled, the sleep and mealtime battles, the comparison that makes everyone else look like they’ve got it all together, and the overwhelm of trying “all the advice” for a day or two and wondering why nothing sticks.From there, we slow everything down and get practical. You’ll hear why consistency — not perfection — turns the tide, how loving limits and clear boundaries make kids feel safe, and how teaching consequences works better than punishments that only add fear and frustration. We’ll also talk about the tantrum – negotiation loop and why giving in “to keep the peace” keeps the cycle going, plus exactly what it looks like to hold a calm, steady no and let the storm pass. Most importantly, we look at the model our kids are learning from every day, us. When we regulate our emotions, they learn how to regulate theirs. Everything we do gives them permission to do the same, so together we practice tools that build calm, respect, and trust — one real moment at a time.As we step into Be A Better Parent, I’m thrilled to share that the Be A Better Parent app is now live on the App Store and Google Play. It’s your in-the-moment guide for today’s fast-paced parenting. Quick steps for tough moments, bite-size lessons you can use on the go, and everyday support to help you stay consistent when life gets loud.

Parents, grief is one of those tough topics that so many of us struggle with — how do we help our children when they lose a loved one, a pet, or even go through big life changes like divorce? In this episode of the Pumped Up Parenting Podcast, I’m talking with Dr. Jerry L. Woodbridge, an award-winning Christian author, grief advocate, and lifelong educator, about how we can guide our kids through these hard moments with honesty, love, and faith.Dr. Jerry shares her own journey of loss, what she learned as both a mom and a teacher, and how her book Joy Overcame Sorrow gives kids and parents a safe way to explore grief together. You’ll hear about the power of storytelling, journaling, memory boxes, and most of all—being real with our children so they feel safe sharing their feelings.This conversation is full of hope, tools, and encouragement for every parent. Because yes, grief hurts, but it also comes from love. And with the right support, kids can learn to carry both sorrow and joy in their hearts.Get Dr. Jerry’s book Joy Overcame Sorrow (and her other books) on Amazon or through her website: DrJerryLWoodbridge.com*******************************************************Are you ready to STOP YELLING AT YOUR CHILD in just 21 Days?

Parenting is never perfectly balanced, and sometimes it is not even close.In this heart-opening conversation, I sit down with Daryl Potter, a dad and author who raised two kids on very different paths: one with complex medical needs and one who still needed his own place in the spotlight. You will hear how his family navigated daily medical crises and palliative care while keeping his son seen, secure, and deeply loved.We talk about simple habits that change everything. Schedule real one-on-one time. Take your kids on date nights even when life feels chaotic. Keep small promises that matter, like a nightly thirty-minute game session even if video games are not your thing. These tiny rituals add up to a confident, connected child who knows they are special on their own.When family support fell through, Daryl and his wife built a chosen family and created a new kind of vacation rhythm so each parent could rest while their daughter received the care she needed. Their story models kindness, commitment, flexibility, and courage for kids and adults alike. Press play for perspective and practical steps you can use tonight.Connect with Daryl: Visit darylpotter.com for his books and more ways to get in touch.*******************************************************Are you ready to STOP YELLING AT YOUR CHILD in just 21 Days?

When we hit, threaten, or shout, we don’t teach respect — we teach fear. In this straight-talking episode, I dismantle the myth that spanking “toughens kids up” and show you what actually builds strong, respectful humans: calm leadership, clear limits, and consistent follow-through. If you’ve ever wondered why the yelling keeps coming back after a spanking, this will connect the dots — and give you a better way.We’ll get practical: how to swap punishment for real-world consequences, how to set age-appropriate expectations, and how to give specific directions kids can actually follow (goodbye, vague “Be good”; hello, “Put the cars in the bucket”). You’ll hear why modeling matters. If we hit, we’re teaching hitting and how kindness plus firm boundaries raises confident, capable kids (not “soft” ones).You are not stuck with the way you were raised. You can be the calm leader your child needs — respected without fear, heard without yelling, and loved without conditions. I believe in you, and your kids will feel the difference.Ready to practice what you’ve learned?Join my 21 Days Stop Yelling Challenge!

In this deeply important episode of the Pumped Up Parenting Podcast, we’re diving into a conversation every parent needs to hear - about the inner critic. I’m joined by the insightful Alyssa Scarano, therapist and founder of The Collective Therapy & Wellness, and together we unpack how those harsh inner voices are formed, how they’re rooted in childhood patterns, and most importantly —how we can begin to shift from self-judgment to self-compassion.Alyssa shares powerful strategies to help parents recognize and break generational cycles of shame, guilt, and emotional survival. We talk about how healing your own inner narrative isn’t just life-changing for you — it’s transformational for your kids. This episode will inspire you to pause, reflect, and reclaim your peace because calm begins from the inside out.Want to connect with Alyssa?

You are not failing — you’re healing. 💛*******************************************************Are you ready to STOP YELLING AT YOUR CHILD in just 21 Days?
