Family life is busy, and parenting can be downright overwhelming. Oh how we need the sound wisdom of successful parents who are a step ahead of us to encourage us along the way. Today's guest, Miles Mettler is exactly that! Miles is an ambassador with Focus on the Family, and he has raised 4 amazing kids into adulthood. He has so much wisdom to share! Miles is the author of 52 Parenting Principles: How to bring out the BEST in your kids which we are drawing from in this episode!
In today’s conversation Miles talks about the importance being intentional about listening to our kids, avoiding the lectures, (so hard!) being “disciplined in your discipline” and more. I found so many nuggets to hold on to in this episode, and I think you will too! Find show notes with links over at:

What I Want You to Know About Raising Amazing, with Monica
Welcome to the FIRST episode of my new monthly podcast feature where I’ll be sharing highlights, nuggets, and free downloads and resources from my book, Raising Amazing: Bringing up Kids Who Love God, Like Their Family, and Do the Dishes Without Being Asked. I am so excited to walk through these chapters with you on the last Wednesday of each month of 2023!
This might be a good time to gather some friends to meet up with each month for coffee + podcast listen to chat through the chapters of Raising Amazing!
Today’s episode is brief as I am sharing simply from the “note to readers” at the beginning of the book. This is about the heart of the book, including the title, subtitle, and what to expect. Also, I take a moment to speak directly to the Dads...as this book is for them as well! ☺

How to Mind Your Mindset, with Megan Hyatt Miller
If you feel stuck in just about any area of life -- from parenting, to business or finances, to your health, this interview may be just what you need! Today I am talking with Megan Hyatt Miller -- President and CEO of Full Focus, a best-selling author, and mom to 5 kids! Through challenges she faced after adopting two of her sons, Megan discovered life-changing truths about the power of our thoughts...and our ability to change our thoughts -- and therefore, our lives!
Megan and her Father, Michael Hyatt, co-authored a book on this topic, titled: “Mind Your Mindset: The Science That Shows Success Starts with Your Thinking." Today Megan shares with us three simple, proven steps to rewire your brain for better thinking and the results you are looking for! I love how this topic aligns with the Biblical call to be "transformed by the renewing of your mind" (Romans 12:2).
Good news!! -- Next week Megan will be back to apply these concepts specifically to parenting! I hope you enjoy this episode, and you can find links to everything we talk about over in show notes:
