Founder of the feminist podcast studio, Softer Sounds , and host of her own podcast, Off the Grid , Amelia is a prominent and grounding voice in the increasingly anxious world of social media (especially for those of us with our careers tied to that space).

🌪️How Do We Raise Scrappy/Resilient Kids Sans Trauma? 21:57

約 17 日前21:57

21:57

This week on SCRATCH THAT, we grapple with some of our inner Boomer-parenting instincts. What if our kids don't "have it as hard as we did"? How do we make sure we raise them to have scrappy, resilient, creative, trickster energy for the inevitable struggles ahead? Tune in to hear us: ⛈️ Name our particular parenting triggers. 🧳 Unpack the actual legacy of some of our early childhood struggles. 💪 Uncover the deep, troubling belief that struggling makes you real and valid. 🧶 Describe the difficulty in watching our kids struggle without intervening. ⚙️ Imagine building resilience in ordinary moments of friction and frustration. 🪡 Recognizing the moments we feel triggered as places that need tending within us. We would love to hear from you! What are the stories you tell yourself about your own difficult childhoods? How does that story shape the way you show up to the world/your own children now? What ways do you find the most effective for building resilience/scrappiness now? Find Rebekah on Substack & Caitlin on Instagram ✨…

🎙️ Getting off the conveyor belt of production with Maria Bowler 54:49

約 24 日前54:49

54:49

We cannot wait for you to hear our conversation with Maria Bowler . Maria's life has followed a delightfully winding path from magazine editor to an MA in religious studies, from years studying with nuns to creative coach. She is also who Caitlin wants to be when they grow up and, most recently, an author of the recently released book, Making Time: A New Vision for Crafting a Life Beyond Productivity. At the heart of it, Maria generously offers us tools for getting off the conveyor belt of production and into a life of being/making – a creative life that keeps us connected to reality. Our conversation came at exactly the right time. Tune in to hear us talk about: 👤How Maria Bowler became Maria Bowler (hint: it involves "failing" a lot). 🛝 Looking at schedules as supports and goals as playgrounds (not structures we need to fit our beings into). 🍼 Early parenting emotions (and the shame that comes when we judge them). ✨ The fruitful relationship between reality and imagined futures. 🌱 Valuing the tiny when the world's suffering is enormous. 📱Our shifting relationships with social media. 🔥 Trusting what is alive in us and expanding our creative edges. ⛪ Maria's time with the Benedictine nuns and how that shaped her understanding of creativity.

A growing goal for SCRATCH THAT is to find ways for this community to know and connect with each other, so this week, we have a special invitation for our listeners. What is a song that has held you — as a parent and/or a person? A song that has brought you back to the ground/yourself/your values. A song that gave you the thing you needed when you needed it? Would you drop it in the comments below? We'll turn all our songs into a group playlist — a way to feel each other's presence as we go about this windy journey of peopling and parenting. And we'll go first! On this episode, we each share about a song that has meant something big to us over the course of our lives.…

🎙️What paradigms are we building? (Part 2) with Abbie VanMeter 1:12:15

約 1 年前1:12:15

1:12:15

Last week, we swirled around the impossible questions of paradigms – What stories did we inherit? What stories are we passing on (intentionally & unintentionally)? Enter – Abbie VanMeter. Abbie is the executive director of the CMM Institute for Personal and Social Evolution , the host of the Stories Lived. Stories Told. podcast, the host of the CosmoParenting Podcast , and an incredibly insightful and curious communicator. On this episode, Abbie meets us in the chaotic center of our swirls and offers us new frameworks and tools for the messy work of re/building paradigms as parents and people. We hope you enjoy our sprawling, juicy conversation! Tune in to hear us talk about: 💭 What it looks like to embody a communications perspective (hint: communication is more than what is being said). 🧰 Instead of a script or map, building a toolbox we/our kids can carry into the unknown future. 🛠️ Good tools for the box, like resilience, curiosity, improvisation, and repair. 🌱 Taking good care of ourselves as good parenting (and the scripts that make us feel selfish for doing it). ❓ Questioning the common phrase "My parents did their best." 🌀 Leaning in, not pulling away from, complexity. 📚 Building paradigms that leave room for multiple stories. 📝 Empowering ourselves/our kids to be meaning makers in our worlds. We would love to hear from you! What tools do you have in your toolbox? What tools are you trying to pass along?…

🌪️ What paradigms are we building? (Part 1) 29:02

約 1 年前29:02

29:02

This week on SCRATCH THAT, we process the great and ambiguous responsibility of creating paradigms for our kids — the context for what they will understand as "normal" — the scripts/stories they have about themselves, the world, and their relationship to it. Holding our curiosity in the forefront and never tying any tidy bows, we swirl around our own inheritances and the ones we're passing along. And if you would like some actual tools for navigating this wobbly territory, we can't wait to share next week's very special interview with you! Tune in to hear us talk about: 🧳 The "cargo bay of baggage" we're bringing into this conversation. ☃️ The great allure & potential harms of creating cozy-snow-globe paradigms. 🌿 The desire to build flexible/stretchy paradigms that grow & evolve with us. 🎢 The uncomfy lack of control we have over the paradigms our kids are forming. 📆 The unspoken values we are teaching our kids through our deeply engrained daily actions. 🎞️ Trusting the process of long-arc relationships & human development. 🤸 Playing with new frameworks for paradigm building (e.g. Relationship over rules, or curiosity & openness over mandates & prescriptions. ) 🌱 The importance of tending to our own deep beliefs and lasting paradigms. We would love to hear from you! How are paradigms manifesting for you in your parenting and/or re-parenting experiences? What kind of paradigms are you wanting to build? What ones were built for you? How are you reshaping them? Find Rebekah on Substack & Caitlin on Instagram ✨…

Now that we're a few months into making SCRATCH THAT, we take this episode to reflect on the podcast values that are revealing themselves as the most important to us. In this episode, we pull cards from Lisa Congdon's Live Your Values deck and compare notes. What do we want to prioritize? What is the target? What do we want to guide/ground each conversation? This feels like an ongoing collaborative project, and we want you to be a part of it! Would you take a couple of minutes to fill out our Patreon poll? What SCRATCH THAT values are becoming the most important to you?? We wanna know.…

🎙️ An Ode to Therapy : Internal Family Systems with Sacha Mardou 52:25

約 1 年前52:25

52:25

We wish every single one of you could sit in the presence of Sacha Mardou. Until that day, we offer you this hearts-out, into-the-depths-of-it-together conversation. Author of the graphic memoir, Past Tense , Sacha shares her story of developing anxiety when she turned 40, going to therapy for the first time, and learning that her childhood story was still with her, waiting for her self-compassion. Rich with insight and never trite, she honors the mess, the nonlinear, the unfixable alongside the hope for meaningful change. Not only did Sacha share her own stories and wisdom, but she embodied a sharp clarity and generosity in her presence with us, showcasing, in real time, her hard earned therapy tool belt. A heads-up for caution and care – around 36 minutes into this episode, Sacha references her mother being sexually assaulted at the age of 13. Tune in to hear us talk about: 📝 How to adult through therapy – e.g. How do you know how long to go? When to go back? When to switch therapists? How do you process/document what you’re learning? How do you act as a self-advocate in therapy? 💓 Naming the parts of ourselves trying to hold us together with harshness and rigidity, and the importance and challenge of self-compassion. 🌈 Creativity as a bridge to connecting with and understanding Self. 📓 Sacha’s mini lesson on Internal Family Systems. 🧑‍🧒 How therapy shapes the way Sacha shows up as a parent (and how that’s changed now that she has a teenager). 🔓 Closed family communication systems versus open family communication systems. 🔄 Legacy burdens and repeated family traumas. 🔨 Grappling with the reality that we can’t fix ourselves enough to be perfect parents and learning to model owning our mistakes and repairing relationships. ⏰ Having the tools but feeling like we don’t have the time, energy, or wherewithal to implement them. To learn more about Sasha Mardou, you can find her on Instagram and through her website. Also, check out her books, Past Tense and Sky and Stereo . We would love to hear from you! What has your experience been with (or without) therapy? What has been the best and hardest, most and least meaningful, frustrating, fulfilling, disappointing, healing part of it?

💌 Dear 2024/2025 28:41

Last week, Caitlin invited us to mark the turn of the year by writing letters to 2024/2025. Today, we bring you the words that came from that prompt. You will hear tears, a whole lot of heartfelt, both/and reflection, and an invitation to write your own letter/create your own artifact to mark this shift in the calendar. At the end of the episode, Rebekah shares a little bit about how deeply difficult this year has been for her niece and sister. Since recording, the GoFundMe she started for them has exceeded the initial goal! It's been stunning to see folks rally around them. Because of that support, they are heading into the new year with one piece of this impossibly hard situation made a little bit lighter. If you would like to participate in supporting this family, the GoFundMe page will be up until January 3rd. A wholehearted, full-body THANK YOU to every single person who has donated/shared/tucked this family into your heart. We would love to hear from you! What are you keeping with you from 2024? What are you letting go of in 2025?…

In today's episode, we reflect on our memories/associations with New Years, and the practices that do/don't feel good around this time of year. We are moving away from new year's resolutions and toward reflective practices that allow us to bear witness to the previous year. Tune in to hear us talk about: 🎊 The ways we moved through this holiday when we were young. 📓 Caitlin's annual, seasonal, and monthly reflection practices (including picking a yearly word, Lisa Congdon's Live Your Values deck , and reflection guides). 🕯️ Caitlin's new practices, including admin adulting days, fun seasonal bucket lists, and a new advent tradition. ❌ A new kind of resolution that asks – what are you NOT prioritizing this year ? 🗓️ Rebekah's daily documentation practices – why she does them and how she holds them lightly. ⏰ Our angst about the rapid passage of time and how we want to be present for the moments as they're passing. 💌 And invitation to write a letter to 2024 or 2025 – we'll read ours next week! Mentioned in this episode : Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals by Oliver Burkeman Lisa Congdon's Live Your Values deck We would love to hear from you!

As we gear up for the week of Christmas and all of the layered feelings this stretch of days can bring, we wanted to offer you something good and grounding. To prepare, we gave ourselves a prompt: write a little blessing, love note, prayer for the holiday week. Today, we read them allowed – an offering to ourselves, each other, and you. We would love to hear from you! How are you orienting yourself this week? What feels hard? What feels easy? What feels different than previous years?

🎙️ How to Human with Lisa Olivera 1:18:13

Lisa Olivera 's words are a uniquely grounding force in a world fueled by algorithms that thrive on speedy-hot-takes, over-simplicity, and one-note narratives. Every time the internet feels like it’s literally going to combust under the strain of loud noises, her steady voice calls us back to our bodies and our inner knowing. We had so many questions for her! And in Lisa-fashion, she met our wonderings with a generous, present, and soft openness, offering reframes and revelations we didn't even know we needed. We're so excited to share this episode with you. 💛 Tune in to hear us talk about: 💫 Reframes for imposter syndrome, self-criticism, and the parts of our stories that have only ever felt hard/sad/painful. 📖 The strange experience of writing a book that makes its way into the world right after you've sustained a complete disintegration of self through new parenthood. 🦋 Giving ourselves, our kids, our partners permission to change, evolve, and grow. 🎭 The many different ways to think about the stories we hold – storytelling as an evolving practice, the limitations of storytelling, holding our stories loosely. 🪂 Letting go of the idea that we can control other people's stories, even our kids' (and letting ourselves feel the grief of that). 💕 The counter-intuitive strength of staying soft. If you want more of Lisa's voice in your world, check out her stunning Substack, Human Stuff , her book Already Enough , and stay tuned for the release of her next one! We would love to hear from you! How do you see storytelling showing up in your own life? Is it a tool? Or a hinderance? Where do you feel yourself becoming rigid? Where would you like to soften?

🌪️ How are we giving (and receiving) gifts? 43:06

約 1 年前43:06

43:06

We are in the season of a million gift-giving choices – What do we want to spend money on? How do we find gifts that make people feel seen/loved/celebrated? How do we buy/make gifts with thought and care when we don't have any time? Today, we dive headfirst into our personal gift giving values and offer a giant pile of recommendations (no one is paying us to make!) with the hope that it sparks something for you that feels good. Caitlin, Our Favorite Bougie Bitch , prefers gifts that align with the way their brain functions. They prioritize fewer things of higher quality that will last over time and not make their home feel loud and cluttered. They recommend: 🎨 Consumable Gifts (art projects, activities, experiences) 🎟️ Memberships 🥝 Kiwi Co monthly subscriptions or individual boxes (like this play-dough pasta-making kit ) 🎭 Gathre vegan leather products for kids (like this doorway theater , seated spinner , car truck mat , and tunnel ) 📻 YOTO for screen free entertainment 🖼️ Artifact Uprising beautiful books (you can make board books! Which I did for Charlie his first Christmas that we treasure), calendars, and more! It's so good! 📦 MakeDo I forgot to mention this! But it's one of our favorite toys ever! It's a set of screws, knife, screwdriver for cardboard that little ones can use! We make all kinds of things with it! Rebekah, The Idealist Without Enough Time , wants everything gift to be handmade and soaking with meaning. She prioritizes items that feel one-of-a-kind thoughtful that don't take quite as much time as a hand-sewn quilt. She recommends: 🧶 ETSY for handmade, customized, feels-like-a-perfect-thrift-store-find items. 📷 Shutterfly or Artifact Uprising (or any company that lets you make things with your own photos) for photo books and inside joke mugs. ✨ Gift cards to local bookstores & small businesses! (Like this cozy spot in KC ) 👻 Prints, stickers, buttons, pins from artists! (Like Tender Ghost ) 🌱 Small scale handmade gifts that don't actually take a ton of time (like simple collaged photos and little decorated plant pots). 💌 A heartfelt, thoughtful card!!!! And one of their all time favorite gifts to give – BOOKS! Together, their top recommendations include: 🌵 Instructions for Traveling West by Joy Sullivan 🙏 Gay Girl Prayers by Emily Austin 🐟 Why Fish Don't Exist by Lulu Miller ⏰ The Power of Moments by Chip Heath and Dan Heath 🍂 The Book of Delights by Ross Gay 💫 Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude by Ross Gay 🥩 Night Bitch by Rachel Yoder ⛰️ All Fours by Miranda July ⚡️ You Better Be Lightning by Andrea Gibson 🦋 Lord of the Butterflies by Andrea Gibson We would love to hear the ways you approach gift giving! What are your favorite gifts to give or receive? How do you prioritize your time/money around this time of year? What are your biggest gift-giving values?
