It could be an unconscious thing that’s happening, which you’re not even aware of, but it’s good to become aware of it. Marriage is basically the biggest commitment we can make and it’s easy to take for granted because it’s just there constantly once you’re married. Your marriage is where you have committed to give it your all and that can take extra dedication to really give the other person the love and attention they need from you to keep your bond strong.

“My children are paying attention to my marriage and later when they want to make choices for their spouse. If they’re not in a good relationship, they might say to themselves after a while. This isn’t what my mom and dad have. I want something that my mom and dad had, and then that might cause them to look for someone who picks marriage first, who picks dating first, who picks friends that complement marriage.” 8:33

As an eternal optimist, Maria is a relentless pursuer of happiness. Discovering how most everything in life can be solved or fixed with a little grit, moxie, and a love for doing what you do, is her superpower. Listen to Rosie and Maria talk about how goals and vision boards can best be implemented into your family’s life and how this can really change your family’s future for the better.

“There’s such science around tracking our progress and physically writing it down. Apps are great, but physical trackers on paper are much more.. They have a higher success rate than our apps because it’s easy for me to forget about an app on my phone and not do it, but if I’ve got a paper in front of me that I’ve got next to my desk, or taped to my computer or the wall where I’m working, I’m gonna stay much more consistent with that.” 44:42

Fueling their minds, watering their thoughts, showing them grace, and asking for forgiveness when we’ve fallen short. It starts at home. Building healthy relationships, teaching them manners, showing them the power of kindness. It starts at home. Using words with honour, speaking life into our situations, refusing to give up when the going gets tough, it starts at home. Prioritising the right things, making memories in the mundane, feeling our emotions rather than bottling them up, it starts at home. Being there for them, opening up the lines of communication, getting to know them more each and every day, it starts at home. And each and every day I pray that home will be a place they remember as learning, laughing, growing, forgiving, and setting a strong foundation for many years to come.” Fire Wife Chronicles by Lizzy Christian

“This isn’t something you wanna be doing all the time. But the good thing about that is instead of being like ‘No, we can’t do this.’ and then that’s the thing the children want to do, when they do get to do it, then they know it’s like a treat. Like a relaxing treat or a lazy day, but long term that’s not the thing you want to do consistently that will be productive for you.” 8:25

Something we’ve come to realise is that your first doesn’t notice it too much because they don’t have siblings. They might interact with it a little bit at school, but it doesn’t consume them, but then as you have more kids and they start to speak about it among themselves, it begins to gain momentum as you have more and more children. Our 5th kid just loves the sound of any word that has to do with potty talk, and he loves to pronounce it clearly and slowly.

Rosie and Ellanee discuss the differences in how touchy your children can be and how this will influence their ability to sleep with you or on their own. Newborn babies often have fairly abnormal sleep patterns after leaving the mother’s womb, so it’s quite normal for things to be irregular once your baby is born, which many first time mothers don’t understand.

• Everyone has a different experience 12:30
• It’s OK for your child to not sleep well at first 18:00
• Women need the right support 29:00
• It’s not about finding the perfect nighttime routine once biological needs are met 35:00

“I feel like there is an idea out there that if you do focus on independent sleep, it is like this rigid–and there is some level of like, you need to be consistent with things in the very beginning, but I feel like people have a preconceived notion that it means you just don’t respond to your child’s needs, and that’s just so very much not the case.” 41:39

We have 5 children at this moment, including an 11 year old boy, 7 year old girl, 5 year old boy, 3 year old boy, and 2 year old boy. Something we’ve been observing the past few months is how much the oldest two adore the baby. We have come to realise something important and maybe useful for those who are trying to decide whether to have more kids or not.

“If the older sibling gets married and has a child and the younger sibling is still young, then the younger sibling will learn parenting from being an uncle or an auntie because they’ll have nieces and nephews. So the cycle kind of continues.” 3:46

The difficult thing can be when you are going a hundred miles an hour at work, and then you come home only to bring all that to a complete halt and the transition can be a little jarring. You can turn a blowtorch on your family if you’re not careful, so it’s important to come up with a plan on how to deal with the stress of your career and adjust back to family life regularly.

Sometimes we make life choices, thinking that we can avoid having to be patient when actually patience is something that life is constantly trying to teach us, and it’s kind of our choice how and where we learn it.

She is an absolute bundle of joy, but is also a well of wisdom. As a mother, Rosie says that Liz has some of the most important information that needs to be passed on from generation to generation, because it’s just so important. Food, our dinner time, what we learn at the dinner table, all these things that we discuss are so important and they literally hold families together. While trying to think of a way to make dinner preparation easier, Liz came up with a brilliant plan which included doing a different theme for each day of the week. Monday became comfort food night, Tuesday became Italian night, Wednesday became fish, meatless, or breakfast night, Thursday became Mexican night, Friday became pizza night, Saturday became grill night, and then Sunday was tradition day.

“I always had something to look forward to when he was gone, and that was dinner time. I got to change gears and go into the kitchen, and use my hands to make bread, or rolls, or cut the vegetables, prepare the food, and it was reaching my soul, and it made me feel very good. It actually was the happiest time of the day for me.” 3:04

She is an absolute bundle of joy, but is also a well of wisdom. As a mother, Rosie says that Liz has some of the most important information that needs to be passed on from generation to generation, because it’s just so important. Food, our dinner time, what we learn at the dinner table, all these things that we discuss are so important and they literally hold families together. While trying to think of a way to make dinner preparation easier, Liz came up with a brilliant plan which included doing a different theme for each day of the week. Monday became comfort food night, Tuesday became Italian night, Wednesday became fish, meatless, or breakfast night, Thursday became Mexican night, Friday became pizza night, Saturday became grill night, and then Sunday was tradition day.

“I always had something to look forward to when he was gone, and that was dinner time. I got to change gears and go into the kitchen, and use my hands to make bread, or rolls, or cut the vegetables, prepare the food, and it was reaching my soul, and it made me feel very good. It actually was the happiest time of the day for me.” 3:04

You both have different needs at different times, and sometimes at the same time. Adam mentions that he is terrible at being really tired and not wanting to take naps, but then not wanting Rosie to take naps because the idea of having the 5 kids is overwhelming, so neither of their needs are met. We have to consider how many times either of us has something different going on and have different needs all at the same time. One example Adam gives is when Rosie has been with the kids all day and she wants connection, but all Adam wants is some peace and quiet, and then those needs just collide.

“It’s easy when both people want the same thing, like ‘Rosie, we need a date night, we just need to go and talk with our children.’ Mutual needs going in the same direction. Where it’s hard is like, I just had an intense day. I don’t want to talk to anyone. Rosie just had an intense day, she wants to talk to me, forever. That’s where the conflict comes in.” 13:44

During that treatment, the chemo she received really did a number on her reproductive system.

This is a funny and ironic topic to bring up because Adam says he does both those things, which are equally great and annoying. The doer can be annoying, but the commentator is 100% annoying. Fear, fatigue, and frustration are all things that can cause you to procrastinate, or just not do what you need to do as a parent or spouse in order to be in a better place in life.

We are honoured to have Jordan Ricks as a part of our show as she is such an amazing person who has a story that is just one big miracle. After falling pregnant, Jordan found that she started to vomit and get sick, which at first seemed normal, but eventually it grew to be completely out of control. She has a mutation in her DNA called CDH1 that causes her to be more prone to stomach and breast cancer, so when she let the doctors know she had this gene, a grave look crossed their faces and they discovered some terrible news. Jordan was in complete sorrow, but had this voice come to her that she was going to go through something similar to her dad, which would get her through this. “You knew this was coming. You’ve been prepared for this. Now go and be a miracle.”

“All 4 of the doctors came back and they all looked at me solemn and sad, and I was like ‘What’s going on?’ Then Dr. Ott, my surgeon, was the one who broke the news and told me ‘You are stage 4 with signet ring gastric cancer due to your CDH1 mutation.’ There I was, 29 years old, 6 months pregnant, sitting in the hospital with bad news. It was so shocking to my system.” 10:55

We have a 9 year age range from eldest to youngest. We’ve noticed that once they hit about age 7, the older ones begin to pull away more and create their own identity, discovering who they are as an individual. Each child goes through a different stage of development at different ages and it’s our responsibility as parents to accommodate those stages and provide opportunities for them to grow and develop, meeting each of their individual needs where possible.

They all needed that individual time to talk about what they wanted to talk about before they actually were emotionally settled to sleep that night.” 11:03

We have a 9 year age range from eldest to youngest. We’ve noticed that once they hit about age 7, the older ones begin to pull away more and create their own identity, discovering who they are as an individual. Each child goes through a different stage of development at different ages and it’s our responsibility as parents to accommodate those stages and provide opportunities for them to grow and develop, meeting each of their individual needs where possible.

One is when you’re doing too much and the other one is when you’re giving too much. If you spend a lot of time around other people and spend a lot of your energy, you have to be able to recoup that spent energy and regain balance. Sometimes you might give all you have outside of your home, and then you have nothing left to give within your home, you’re going to get burnt out.

We have all heard that phrase that comparison is the thief of joy, but one thing we’ve heard is that if you find yourself in a state of comparison, it either leads to discouragement or to pride, so it’s never a good thing. If you find yourself comparing, you’re either putting yourself down, or you’re trying to put someone else down indirectly to make yourself look or feel better.

It’s so easy and I think social media makes it so easy to slip into comparison.” 2:02

Our bodies are designed to react according to our situations and if we’re constantly stressing ourselves out, everything will be off, such as our appetite or ability to sleep, and so on. Rosie’s main tactic is making sure she gets enough rest to ease the pressure and stress in her life. You also need to feel good about yourself, or feel like you’re presentable, and this can be done through exercise, nutrition, or taking care of your aesthetic side.

Our children do a lot of funny things that we maybe initially thought was annoying, but after realizing it’s just something that kids do, it has become endearing, like when they feed the dog and the dog is covered in food later, or when they stand on your feet while trying to get a better view of what you’re doing.

The time of year can affect how you breastfeed your child, or even if you’re going to be able to breastfeed them. Rosie was a Winter baby, so her mum definitely had less going on and therefore more time to devote to breastfeeding, so Rosie was breastfed as a baby.

Rosie has always made a conscious effort to stay as healthy as she can during pregnancy and between pregnancies without being extreme. There are sometimes where women can fall to either side where they verge toward being healthy or unhealthy to an extreme, but Rosie has the goal set to be healthy and well so that she will be in top shape to take care of her children.

In this episode we’re talking all about how to keep marriage simple. Inspiration for this episode is the fact that we have our 12th wedding anniversary this week. We are very busy people with our own dreams, goals, and aspirations, and we realized that if we try to come up with something too complicated, things just become too hard and it ends up making things worse. So we were trying to figure out something nice to do for our anniversary, but then decided it would be better to just do something more simple and just go to dinner on Thursday, our typical date night of the week, and then we’re gonna go out as a family on Saturday to celebrate with everyone.

• Why we can’t make things too complicated 2:50
• Making life more complicated than it needs to be 8:30
• Sometimes we think our spouse’s needs are way more complex than they are 12:50
• Triggers can cause complex circumstances 16:55

“You’re getting to know each other, so you come up with these complex rationalizations as to why someone’s doing something. Man they’re just doing it because they just did it, you know? It’s not like some 15 move chess game that they’re going through in their head. We go through this junk in our head and it’s just Rosie being Rosie.” 10:07

If you make life too easy, it can become a burden. Too much prosperity can create apathy and can kill ambition, which is something we need to be aware of when parenting. Principles to teach your children include hard work, service, and gratitude. Help them expect to bless others and in times of need, be blessed by others.

“There are some people around us who are significantly wealthy whose kids turn up and serve. They’re doing all sorts of incredible stuff, not looking to get paid for helping, serving, in the community and beyond, and they wouldn’t have to work for a hundred lifetimes if they want to. It’s got nothing to do with circumstance and everything to do with how they’re raised.” 13:00

“In there I also talk about becoming a lifetime learner. This is your kid’s first chance to decide if learning is something that they want to be a part of because this year it will be very easy for them to just slink back in the shadows and no one will notice and they can make every excuse of why it wasn’t successful because there are a million of them. And I think we can flip this around like you said as parents. We can be bothered and frustrated that the school system isn’t completely taking care of our kids’ education like we hoped it would. Or we can also dig in and become lifelong learners. We can figure out what works best for one child and kind of really push that type of education for them.” 5:18

It speaks of a father who, after a long day, gets angry at his son for misbehaving and sends him straight to bed. The father then goes to bed and feels bad for being so harsh, and then he has this dream that impacts him deeply. We discuss the reasons why we need to let our kids be kids and avoid getting after them all the time for little things that aren’t as big of a deal as they seem. Whether they’re 5 or 15, we can’t treat them like they’re 50.

“I realized that my goals were causing me to want the kids to act like adults so I had the space to think about the goals, and then it was just like getting slapped in the head. The kids don’t care about our personal family balance sheet. They don’t care about really where we live, they just want us and they wanna be kids and they wanna be seen as kids.” 9:30

“I realized that my goals were causing me to want the kids to act like adults so I had the space to think about the goals, and then it was just like getting slapped in the head. The kids don’t care about our personal family balance sheet. They don’t care about really where we live, they just want us and they wanna be kids and they wanna be seen as kids.” 9:30

Your kids often don’t live up to their full potential until you’re not around. Generally it’s when you’re not there that they’ll think of that thing you were trying to teach them and they’ll live it. Parenting is one of the hardest things either of us has ever done, but it’s also the most rewarding thing we’ve ever done and failure and struggle are just part of the journey.

“If you follow any of the people who give advice about parenting, what I like about them is they’ll give you real life examples about experiences that were tough and they’re telling us that this is the optimal thing to do, but even they find it difficult to do the optimal thing all of the time. They know what the right thing is to do, but they say it’s trial and error for them trying to implement it. It makes you realize that until you’ve done it once or twice, you won’t have a vision for it.” 5:30

Devices are like a double edged sword because they’re so powerful for a lot of good reasons, but that same power makes them dangerous for other reasons. Each parent or couple needs to assess their own individual family needs and make sure they’re setting their own boundaries that will best fit for their family. Different kids will need different rules, and we give an example of this about a kid who didn’t trust himself with a device, so his parents didn’t give it to him when they told him he could have one.

Adam states that if he had to go back in time, he would communicate differently, even when he was tired and didn’t want to listen, he would never take Rosie for granted, and then Rosie suggests she would have done regular date nights. We never went on a honeymoon, but feel now that going on one would have been a really nice experience where we could just enjoy being with each other. Somewhere within our marriage, Adam mentioned that he got a bit complacent and forgot to keep trying to woo Rosie, which they are now trying to rekindle that aspect of their relationship.

We get out of church, then usually eat around 3 pm and the kids just know that this is our time to be together and have something special for lunch. Not only does having these type of meals bring our own family together, but it’s a great way to invite other families to dine together with us and strengthen relationships.

We get out of church, then usually eat around 3 pm and the kids just know that this is our time to be together and have something special for lunch. Not only does having these type of meals bring our own family together, but it’s a great way to invite other families to dine together with us and strengthen relationships.

We have recently been looking into this and have learned that depression can come from a lack of hope and sadness can come from a lack of options, which are 2 very similar things. There are 3 things that everyone needs, which are 1) something to do, 2) someone to love, and 3) something to hope for. “Would someone who would achieve that do what I’m doing? Or Dress like I dress?” Try to think of the person you want to be and ask yourself whether they would be doing the things you’re doing or not, and then act and move forward accordingly.

He told us an interesting concept that you don’t want to be one of those parents that denies your children access to something like sugar cereals, and then they go to a friend’s house and scarf that kind of thing because they’ve been so deprived of it. Explaining to kids the reason why you have certain rules or why they should be doing certain things, and then working with them to create a healthy balance is the ideal action plan for preventing secretive behaviours.

He said that women are complex and that they get divorced for complex reasons, but he said for men it’s very simple. Men want to be touched and they want to be appreciated. He said even if a man isn’t touched but still appreciated, he would stay in the marriage. If he wasn’t touched or appreciated, that would be the reason he ends up leaving the marriage.

The price you have to pay for that is being open and humble, and walking away from pride. Sometimes we can’t choose our own circumstances or how other people treat us, and certain situations may be thrust upon us that are completely out of our control control, but we can choose to an extent how these things affect us and whether we’re going to be offended or use gratitude to see the positive, feel more happy, and just experience more peace. Gratitude doesn’t discount justice or extra necessary help like therapy, but it definitely helps ease the burden of unhappiness and dissatisfaction with one’s situation.

There are different types of hard heartedness, like some people might show it through anger and getting mad, while others might just shut down and not want to communicate or cooperate with those with whom they are interacting, or being numb and not feeling anything/experiencing apathy. We talk about great individuals that were able to demonstrate these valuable traits, such as Adam’s friend or Rosie’s granny.

They were out hunting in the mountains with a guide, but the guide lost his GPS, so he had to go back and search for it while Adam and the kids were left alone for a bit, which is when they came upon some Native American site with a bunch of arrowheads that were hundreds of years old. They had been hiking for a while and Patty asked how much longer they had, to which Adam replied “About an hour.” As they persevered, they came upon some more fun discoveries that, along with having to face adversity, really made the whole adventure worth it.

This friend told Adam that he knows people in the same career and one of them will be really happy in that field while the other is completely miserable and he has found that it’s not what you do, but the way you do it that will make the difference. They were talking about some personal stuff for Adam and he asked if Adam had looked at the way he was doing it and if the way he’s doing it is creating the issue. After some reflection, Adam has realized he’s been happy with the results of the work he has done, but not what he was doing to get those results and the approach he’s taken to get results has been what is making him unhappy.

“Like I said to you today, we need to just question everything. Question everything in our life, what’s bringing us joy, and it’s not to quit stuff, there’s some stuff that needs to stay, but needs to be done in a different way. There are things that people quit too soon and they quit not because the thing is wrong. They quit because their approach is wrong and driven by attitude, or it’s lack of knowledge about how to do something in a better way.” 8:45

Rosie gives some great packing tips to help you, especially if you have multiple little ones to worry about. We went with two suitcases for 7 individuals, which we did so we could focus more on hangers instead of bags to help organize things better, especially when clothes are dirty. It’s also important to make sure you’re prepping all the kids before you leave by going to the bathroom in order to be able to leave and not have to stop for a while.

So we want to fill you in on how things have been going with the dog since we got it in January. It has been a lot of extra work taking care of this little dog, but it’s been a lot of fun watching the kids interact with the dog and have this new little bundle of joy in our home.

Adam’s 93 year old grandfather, Max Copp, just passed away and we talk about the hard things he has experienced through his life, such as growing up in the Great Depression, or living through WWII and watching his 3 older brothers go to war. With all the hard things he went through, he really developed a strong, solid character who never complained. He always served and did what he was supposed to do, often just pushing through the hard things to the end. “Joy comes from working.”

Often in the fitness world there’s a disconnect between being a fulltime parent and “the fitness junkie” that makes being into fitness seem difficult or somewhat impossible, but Elliot has come up with an approach to make it seem much more accessible and doable. “The outcome goal would be, ‘I’m going to lose 10 pounds’ for example, whereas the identity based goal is ‘I’m gonna be the type of person who works out every day.’”

“If I want to be the person who works out, then I need to do little things every day to put myself as that person. So it might just be that I just do a 10 minute workout every day and it’s just those little things that then identify yourself as a person when you’re having a conversation with someone, ‘Yeah I work out 5 days a week’ you become that type of person, therefore that starts changing your identity.” 9:49

He got caught up in the fact that he didn’t have time to be there so much for Rosie, so he now wants to make amends and change some things.

We brought on 3 guests by the names of Peter Knecht, Tim Hall & Emily Crapo of American Heritage School. We’re going to discuss the innovative worldwide education alternative infused with faith and backed by 53 years of academic excellence. Students are taught by inspiring teachers in a globally connected community of peers and mentored by those they love at home. This amazing program has made learning a lot more exciting and engaging for kids, and helps them to express themselves, making their voices heard to their peers and themselves.

“The principle approach is a methodology, and it’s a philosophy as well, incorporated throughout everything that we do. Every learning framework, every course that we teach in the classroom and online is infused with faith, and teaching strong academics is very important to us, but teaching academics in a way that helps children to develop character and to deepen faith is something that’s core to the mission of American Heritage School.” 2:13

Becoming angry or irritable is contagious and if you don’t contain it, your whole home can end up angry or annoyed. Everyone has bad days, so today we wanted to talk about how to cope when your day just isn’t going well and Rosie shares some amazing tips and tricks on how you can deal with it. Rosie has discovered the power of music and how it can affect everyone’s mood in the home, and even influence them to clean the house. Another tool Rosie uses is candles or diffusers because we’ve discovered that smell can really affect a person’s mood. Another tip for when you’re feeling stressed, annoyed, or angry in the home, just leave the house and get away for a bit.

“If you have a ‘I want this now’ personality, I think that you get rewarded for saving money, and the reason why I think this is because any time I didn’t have the money when I wanted to buy something and I wanted it now, by the time I saved the money I didn’t need it.” 11:25

“So often people think ‘But my business takes all this time.’ The stuff you do that actually earns an income does not take that much time. So if you can concentrate it into a period of time that works for you and just be super focused and get good planning done, you could get so much done.” 19:13

“Sometimes we have these expectations on our children or our babies. We can just have them ourselves or we can get them from society, we can get them from a book, we can get them from different places, but it’s like we expect or want one thing to happen and when it doesn’t happen, we are frustrated or we think we’re behind or we feel that life isn’t going in the right direction when in fact everything is fine.

In this episode we discuss a more serious topic, the common mistake most parents make. We talk about the power of influence on the lives of your children and how much of what you say and demonstrate to them will be reflected in their own lives. Sometimes we or other people say things to our children as a joke, but we have to pay attention to if they’re understanding it’s just a joke. We talk about how it’s usually best to acknowledge the behavior of the child rather than acknowledge themselves when giving a compliment. We discuss advertising and the power it has to influence your children, oftentimes causing them to whine and complain about toys they don’t have. When your children pick up on doubt and hesitancies, then they will breathe and understand right into that. We talk about having adult conversations and the impact they can have on your children and oftentimes you don’t even think about the fact that they’re listening to you. Even hypothetical conversations can be misinterpreted from your children. Their subconscious shapes their future, and sheltering them from certain things will help them to have a better future.

In this episode, we talk about using the time we have with our children in isolation for good. We may feel trapped or not able to use our typical stress relievers during this time. Oftentimes, we use stress relievers to avoid situations or forget about what causes the stresses. Perhaps this is a great time to discuss our stressors and try to understand them better. We focus on how to do this with our children and how this can be applied to any relationships we have.

We focus on how to do this with our children and how this can be applied to any relationships we have.
