I’m a MN girl. I’ve sat crying on my couch at times over these last few weeks with all that’s going on, feeling powerless. But here’s what I realized. Powerlessness is a myth. Sometimes it’s in the worst of times that this myth grows especially big, because problems seem too large to tackle and fear takes over. Literally, our nervous system paralyzes us. Or sometimes causes us to hide or run, or stand and fight. Each of these responses may be protective and needed in a given context, but sometimes our actions are reflexive and make no logical sense. I remember one specific day a few years ago when I opened our front door and a large bird flew straight into our house, rammed into the opposite window and died on our carpet. What did I do in that split second? I screamed and ran into the back bedroom closet–all in one reflexive motion. And then I emerged and asked myself, “What just happened?” My fight or flight system had taken over. So don’t judge yourself if you feel fear and paralysis right now. But my friend, there is a stronger force to harness if you so choose. That is the force of love. The parasympathetic nervous system that invites nurturing and connection can win out. This is true in parenting and all of life: “Love never faileth.” How can this be true? Not every initiative conceived with love “succeeds” (or brings forth the intended fruit) and truly the mere feeling of love does not solve the world’s problems. But it is a solid starting and ending point. It is the safe ground to stand upon when all else fails, when all else feels as if it’s crumbling beneath our feet. Love as a noun is the start, but love as a verb is where all this goes. So what does love in action look like? There may be some common themes and threads, but the beautiful reality is this. There are too many possibilities to name. Love in action is a radical, specific act or innovation that cannot be foretold. It cannot be legislated against because it’s so specific to the situation and the individual giver and receiver, that no one can exactly predict or prohibit it. Love is seeing a need and wisely filling it (in the way only you can because who and where you are in a given moment). Only YOU are at this exact human intersection. Last night, love looked like making my kids waffles for dinner. Last month, on Christmas morning, love looked like this: We had just finished the flurry of gift opening and the family dispersed to integrate their new items and indulge in the chocolate from their respective stockings. I was alone in the kitchen listening to Christmas choral music. I looked out the window and saw a man walking alone on the empty, cold street carrying a backpack. It seemed that he moved to the beat of the song, which happened to be “O Come, O Come Emmanuel” at the moment. It was a soundtrack in a movie and the sky and mountains were the backdrop. This was a moment of internal pause; a human intersection. I could have looked away and gone back to cleaning up dishes and piles of wrapping paper, but I didn’t. I dumped the candy from my stocking, a pair of gloves, an orange, and an apple into a small brown gift bag. I threw on my coat and asked one of my teenage boys to get in the car with me. (Honestly, I was a little afraid and it made me feel safer to have him there.) He was like, “Where are we going mom?” I told him, “I saw this guy through the window walking down the road and I wanted to bring him something. I thought about how he’s someone’s son too, you know. If I was his mom, I’d want someone to do this.” By the time we got on the road, I couldn’t see him anymore, but we kept driving along trying to predict where he may have gone. I turned into an empty grocery store parking lot, and there he was, digging in the trash can. I pulled the car up next to him and said, “Excuse me, sir. I wanted to wish you a Merry Christmas.” I handed him the bag and we drove

The Healing Power of Kindness  My friends, happy birthday! Today marks the birthday of my podcast and it also marks the birthday of my mother, so in honor of these, I thought I’d share something that’s been on my heart for over a year: a message about the Healing Power of Kindness. Now, as a mother I’ve learned to be patient, to know that everything has its gestation–even ideas. I’ve been working for some time on a book called Compassion Parenting. And one underlying premise of the whole concept of compassion is the immense & inherent value of a human soul. Another is that kindness matters.  Let me take you on a journey through a series of stories because that’s how we learn and experience. First a story of rabbits, then candlesticks, then a blue-haired girl, and then, the story of a story.  You might be wondering why I’m telling you all these stories–this isn’t your typical parenting podcast episode. Yet kindness has everything to do with parenting. It is essential in all the most important relationships in our lives, including our relationship with ourselves. Kindness improves health. Research tells us that being in a nurturing, kind environment can improve blood pressure, immunity, and even prolong life. This isn't to say that kindness cures all ills, but it certainly helps. Dr. Kelli Harding, in her book, The Rabbit Effect, describes a study on rabbits performed in the 1970’s that puzzled scientists. The experiment was designed to prove that a high fat diet would lead to high cholesterol and heart disease, but when they studied the tiny blood vessels under the microscope, they found one group of rabbits who had 60% less fatty buildup in their blood vessels. They looked for any possible differences between the two groups of rabbits and the only difference they could find was in the care they’d received. The healthier group had been taken care of by a postdoc student who was naturally kind. She pet the rabbits and talked to them as she fed them and cleaned their cage, and this kindness manifested in their physiology. As a pediatrician, I’ve seen firsthand how kindness influences mental and physical health. I see light shining from kids’ faces and in their eyes. It’s the kindness and love you have put in. It’s visible and tangible. It’s a real thing. Kindness changes people. Most of us know the story of Les Miserables by Victor Hugo where the main character, Jean Valjean is transformed by kindness. After being imprisoned for many years for stealing a loaf of bread, Valjean is finally released but is treated like an outcast and can’t find work. He gets so desperate, he steals silver from a bishop and when he’s caught, the bishop mercifully claims the silver was a gift and proceeds to give Jean Valjean some silver candlesticks. This act of kindness changes Jean Valjean, and he dedicates his life to goodness. Even though this story is fictional, we can all relate to it because we’ve seen or experienced the softening that can happen when kindness is extended. But kindness doesn’t only heal others, it heals us.  Years ago, in addition to taking care of my kids, I was in the midst of caring for my mom who had recently had a stroke. I felt emotionally and physically exhausted. During that period, as I was driving down the road, I saw a teenage girl with blue hair walking along the sidewalk. She was carrying a backpack almost as big as she was and looked like she’d fall over backwards. She held a red rose in her hand. I felt connected to her immediately, maybe because with the heaviness of what she was carrying, she looked how I felt. I pulled over next to her and asked where she was going. At first, I didn’t feel comfortable offering her a ride because I had a couple of my kids with me in my van (not to mention two...

Today's guest, Nicholeen Peck, is a worldwide phenomenon and leader. Her proven parenting principles and self-government skills transform all children, from tantruming toddlers to even the most troubled teens. The world saw this in 2009 when the BBC, in England, featured her and her family in a documentary called The World’s Strictest Parents. The Peck family episode became the “most watched episode ever” because of the amazing transformation their calm parenting approach brought about in the troubled British teens who stayed in their home. Over the years, the Peck family had a lot of practice parenting troubled teens as foster parents for treatment foster children. Nicholeen knows that to change the heart of one child, parents must have a parenting heart-change first. So, for the past 23 years she has spent her life helping parents learn the skills that they need to unite the hearts in their families. She’s the author of 11 books, including her best selling book Parenting A House United, and her very popular children’s book series that teach the Four Basic Self-Government Skills to children. She is a sought after speaker around the globe and even consults at global congresses and the Untied Nations as she tries to protect children and women as well as strengthen families.
