THE WAY FAM: Recent Episodes

Zach & Hanna

Discussions on life, identity, marriage, parenting, simplicity, and relationships, hosted by average humans.

Today, we’re talking about emotional wellness and how it works in our everyday lives. We talk about how emotions act like warning lights, signaling that something deeper might be going on. Zach shares his struggles with big emotions and practical tools that help, and Hanna talks about the challenges of managing emotions as a parent. From learning how to calm ourselves down to teaching our kids how to do the same, we cover it all.

Here’s what we cover:

  • Emotions as Warning Lights: they’re more than just feelings , they’re telling us something important.
  • Tools for Managing Emotions: cover the main bases like eating, sleeping, exercise and breathing, and how getting outside can make a big difference.
  • Parenting with Emotional Health in Mind: helping our kids (and ourselves) manage emotions, especially when things get crazy.
  • Healthy Emotional Habits: staying aware of our feelings and pre-deciding to handle stressful moments before they even happen.
  • Escaping the Digital Trap: setting screen time boundaries and finding healthier ways to cope.

Parenting is one of the hardest and most rewarding area of our lives, even if it doesn’t feel rewarding in the moment. In this episode, we discuss parental wellness and how it looks for us. We share our experiences and the strategies we’ve developed over the years to ensure we’re staying on track as parents. From one-on-one time with our kids to maintaining a structured daily routine, we explore the steps we’ve taken to not be a grumpy stinky parent and provide opportunities for our kids to learn and grow.

Here’s what we cover:

  1. One-on-One Time: Why individual time with each child is important and how we do mama/daddy dates.
  2. Creating Structure: The systems we’ve put in place to provide consistency and structure.
  3. Discipline and Connection: The importance of connecting with our kiddos before correcting their behavior.
  4. Inviting Kids in Everyday Tasks: Teaches kids valuable life skills but also helps them feel like an important part of the family team.
  5. Apologizing to Your Kids: Modeling humility by apologizing to our children when we make mistakes, and how this helps create a healthy fam.

Over the past 3 years we created a system to help us avoid falling in the pit and becoming troll humans. We use this evaluation to help grow and be more self-aware in our lives and family. In this episode, we share why we started this practice, some insights from doing it regularly, and why we do it quarterly instead of an annual review. Here’s what we cover:

  1. Why We Self-Assess: the importance of regular check-ins on our personal and relational health and how it helps us stay on track.
  2. The Method: how we rate ourselves in internal, external, and relational areas of life and pick habits to start or reconnect with.
  3. Challenges & Wins: the high's and low's we've had and how we've managed them.

We met Xavier about 3 years ago, he was in the air force and decided to try out van life. Immediately he became a regular at our weekly family dinners and a part of our community group. Fast forward to now and he's a personal trainer and coach in LA working on writing a book. In this episode, we talk about how to find your purpose. Xavier has a list of 7 questions for someone who is looking to find their purpose:

  1. Who is God? 
  2. Who are you?   
  3. Where do you come from? 
  4. What can you do? 
  5. Who are you serving through your gifts and why? 
  6. What do the people you're serving want or need?
  7. Where are you going?

You can find Xavier on Instagram @_weaponx or check out his website: https://surgefit.squarespace.com

Q: What is most important for us right now? A: Survival and balance. As parents with 3 kiddos, its A LOT with both of us working from home, homeschooling, making healthy meals, cleaning the house, trying to be intentional, and not dying/going insane. Here's some tips for how we're handling these strange times.

  1. Wake up and start your day positive (don’t start the day with phone/news/emails)
  2. Get outside (multiple times per day, regular intervals, set a timer and go for a walk)
  3. Practice gratitude (set a timer or keep a journal)
  4. Get moving (sweat 20 min a day)
  5. Reset to zero (don’t start your day in the red, set yourself up for success)

"Do one thing every day that scares you" - Eleanor Roosevelt

When you get stuck, you just need a little jumpstart to get out of the pit. Starting something new is the most uncomfortable part about change. Seth Godin says: “Change your mind, change your life. The only way to get better is to do things differently.”  You can’t grow if you can’t change. You can’t change if you can’t think differently. But once you start, your momentum snowballs.

Why is it difficult to make friends?

Why is it important to make friends?

As a married couple with kids, it’s difficult to make friends, but we think a lot of the reasons why begins with our avoidance of stepping out into potentially awkward situations. We could use the fact that we’ve moved 4 times in the first two years of our marriage, but to be honest that probably just an excuse. Making friends is important and it gets more difficult as you grow older, so we should probably work on it a little more.

Traditions are important and help make dull, monotonous things memorable. Sometimes all it takes is adding a little routine or rule and including more people to create a tradition. Like Friendsgiving or barefoot walks, or brushing your teeth together before you go to bed, folding laundry and watching parks and rec together.

Sometimes the beliefs you hold, end up holding you back. “I’m not good enough, I can’t, I don’t have enough time, I’m not as good as _____, I would if I had more money, this is how I am, I can’t change, if my circumstances were different I could”... etc.

These beliefs cause us to think with a scarcity mentality which in turn causes depression, comparison, settling, complacency, dependence, fear... etc.

Understanding scarcity mentality is a good first step in change. Even though we’re just average people, we have the ability to live extraordinary lives if we change the way we think and don’t allow ourselves to become victims of our thought patterns or life circumstances.

Do you know when you are trying to get someones attention and they just aren’t getting it? Maybe their social skills are off, maybe they’re tired, maybe your gesture or question wasn’t direct enough or maybe they’re distracted. Whatever the case, it’s kinda frustrating and can lead to not only miscommunication- but also missed communication.

This week we talk about bids for attention, text/subtext, and the ability to read between the lines.

095: Finding A Mentor & Making Friends It’s 10:10PM on a Sunday night, everyone else is in bed because I guess the time change hit us harder than expected. I’m sipping coffee and bourbon (mixed obvi). Daylight savings time is sweet because we get more time to catch the sunset but it also messes up our nap and wake up time schedules for the kiddos. Hanna is sleeping so this week its just me and I’m kind of stuck or “in the pit” as Hanna likes to say. This is a short episode on the value of finding a mentor and good friends.

Good goals should be specific, measurable, attainable, relevant( be yours) and time-bound. Set goals early, write them down and display them publicly. Only 3% of Americans do this, most Americans fail at their New Years resolutions by January 15.

Here’s some categories, define what your areas are, then list them in order of value.

  1. Spiritual:
  2. Family:
  3. Mental (intellectual):
  4. Emotional:
  5. Physical:
  6. Social:
  7. Environmental:
  8. Financial:
  9. Career:

Share your goals and objectives, be specific with who you’re sharing- make sure they keep you accountable. Don’t bother sharing them with people who don’t value the things you value.

Everything worth it in life is uphill.

Habit building contributes to goal success.

Ordinary people can still live extraordinary lives when they learn patience & perseverance. We value continual personal growth, relational growth, spiritual growth, intellectual growth etc, but what do you do when you feel like you’re stuck in a “season” and not able to see any progress? Do you give up? Do you roll over? Do you make rash decisions? Or are you patient?

We’re half as patient as we would like to be less than half of the time. (I was thinking of Bilbo Baggins when I typed that)

St. Augustine said, “You’ve got to pray like it all depends on God and work like it all depends on you.

“Focused intensity, over time, multiplied by God, equals unstoppable momentum.”

It’s important to be honest with ourselves and be able to identify things that we actually value vs. things we wish we valued more. Once we identify our core values- making decisions is a lot easier, but if we haven’t defined what we value we run the risk of drifting in the unknown. For creatives and business minded people to be unclear is to be unkind, and that is why it is crucial to define your core values for yourself. We talk about all this and answer some emails in this episode. Fern tried to sabotage this recording but (hopefully) she failed.

We’ve got baby #2’s due date fast approaching and have a lot to get done in order to prepare. Sometimes we feel like we’re just treading water to stay afloat but life goes on. If we don’t have a top priority and realistic goals to reach we will just wander through life. We have to be real and figure out what makes out family unique, what are our values, what do we want to accomplish and how do we reach our goals. This week we go over the blueprint for all that and then also talk about how social media and the podcast make honesty and openness both important and difficult.

There is healthy conflict and confrontation and there is unhealthy conflict and confrontation. It’s healthy when it’s constructive and its unhealthy when it solely destructive. I believe one of the main reasons we avoid conflict is because it can cause discomfort and we LOVE being comfortable. But comfort can lead to complacency and thats no good.

This week we talk answer questions about natural birth, contentment and ambition, and non-toxic living with roommates. Then we get into the main topic of conflict.

Then we talk about if there is such thing as a job. Here's what I think:

You are not your job. You do your job because of who you are. You are not who you are because of your job. If you find your identity in your career or job you will never be satisfied. There is no perfect career, there is no perfect job. There are bad jobs, good jobs, great jobs, exciting jobs, boring jobs, hard jobs, easy jobs but they're all jobs, they all require work.

Hanna isn't here this week. She's at a conference in Utah for young living essential oils. She's killing the business and putting lots of hard work into it. We're hustling with all our different endeavors, she's been gone this whole week and I'm gone all next week with my high school students up to hume for summer camp. But you have got to make sacrifices. Everyone wants to make a difference but if you're not willing to live differently then you probably won't. So we're doing things differently but it's not easy. In this episode I talk a little bit about why we're doing the podcast and how it's been such a blessing even though it's silly. If we use technology differently we can make a difference and that's what we're trying to do. Share real life stuff.

In this weeks episode I play some rough drafts of the songs I've been working on lately. Tell me what you think if you're into music or whatever. Constructive criticism is always welcome here.

Time is valuable. Probably the most valuable asset you have. If you don’t guard it well and use it wisely it will pass you by. We talk about how to time-block and why to time-block. Maybe it’s time to hit up some of those goals and cut some time-wasting habits out of your routine, hopefully this helps.

Creativity is hard for some people. It requires work and (at least for us) it seems like some sort of process is needed. Unless we make something a priority, it never happens. Just because you're busy doesn't mean your creative process has to die. It just has to be focused. The hard thing for me is that I want to have everything polished and high-quality. But you've just got to start first - and your first draft might suck, but keep working. It's a never ending circle and I think I've got it dialed in - now I just have to make it a priority. The cycle for me is:

explore learn apply create edit produce then rest.

Listen, we know Mother’s Day was yesterday but moms deserve to be celebrated and thanked more than one day a year, especially business-owning, stay-at home moms like Shailey & Katie. This week we got to chat with them about how to make business work when you’re raising kid, life-balance, the myth of having it all, social media, and where to draw a line between business and personal.

We definitely recommend checking out their podcast and connecting with them on instagram here: www.linktr.ee/shaileyandkatie

Everyone is different, everyone communicates differently and receives and processes differently. Understanding people is important not so that we can put them in a mental box and judge them, but so that we can better understand, love and serve them. Today we talk about another personality test, one that is less known but very interesting (at least for us).

"Today, you won’t control the external events that happen. Is that scary? A little, but it’s balanced when we see that we can control our opinion about those events. You decide whether they’re good or bad, whether they’re fair or unfair. You don’t control the situation, but you control what you think about it. See how that works? Every single thing that is outside of your control...still presents a corresponding area that is in your control. This alone gives us plenty to manage...

Best of all, an honest understanding of what is within our control provides real clarity about the world: all we have is our own mind. Remember that today when you try to extend your reach outward—that it’s much better and more appropriately directed inward." -Ryan Holiday The Daily Stoic: a.co/cFF9RAo

"Comparison is the thief of joy" - Theadore Roosevelt. Although that is true, the heart of the problem is the problem of the heart. Comparison stems from discontentment. We can attempt to put a band-aid on the symptom, or we can deal with the cause.

This week involves a lot of rambling :/ but about good things, because it's our one year anniversary of the podcast. SO HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY TO US! We talk a little bit about youth ministry, friendships, and Forest makes an appearance! Let us know what you think! We'd love to hear from you!

It’s that time of year again, the one where we feel guilty about our New Years resolutions we procrastinated on until December 31st.

This week, we talk about how to make effective New Years resolutions and, most importantly, WHY.

If you don’t like long intros this episode isn’t for you. We ramble a lot, but we talk about our week and being sick and tired and being sad. We answer some questions. Then we talk about storytelling, building a platform, and personal branding. Social Media continues to change, are we using it in vain? What is our the purpose of social media in our life, is it a tool? Do we use it for entertainment? Is it a distraction or an ego boost? Most people don't like what real life looks like, instead they want to scroll through perfectly curated feeds. Then they get frustrated when they compare their real life to someone else's highlights. So here's to changing that
