The Full Time/Part Time/Stay at Home Decision

In today's episode of Raising Adults, we talk about the full-time, part-time, stay-at-home decision. There are so many variations of what this scenario may look like, and it's a huge decision parents have to make. We share our perspectives and what we've experienced along the way. Don't worry...even though Deana doesn't have an acronym, she's not letting us down. She has two C's for us today. Be sure to tune in!   Today's highlights include:  Deana's why, a believer in seasons (6:25) Kira's why (8:50) Deciding if a change needs to happen (14:26) Normalizing the decision-making process and communication (17:32) Does your work-life match your values (18:42) Communication and creative problem solving (20:49) Recognizing it is ok to have a human need and share it (24:04) Seeking ways to make things work for us (27:20) The importance of making decisions that are consistent with who you are (30:20)   How are you navigating this for your home and family?

If your parenting ever feels like a game of whack-a-mole, we’ve got you. If you are a Type-A planner who wants to parent proactively, we’re here for you. If you find yourself somewhere in between….that parent who longs to parent with intention, but often ends up reacting to situations as they arise, you are our people! Our distinct philosophy - Future Focused Parenting – takes center stage on the podcast. We open every episode with our own personal “why” to demonstrate bringing intention to specific parenting issues. Then we dive into the “what” and “how” of each topic, moving quickly into actionable tools and strategies our listeners can start using right away. As your co-hosts, we bring our professional experience to bear, but never fail to share our own struggles as parents. In addition, we have some unique differences in our personalities and beliefs. This dynamic creates a distinct feel, allowing our listeners to explore varying ways to approach parenting topics and ultimately decide what works for their family. We invite you to listen to the groundbreaking parenting podcast that starts with the end in mind. Stop raising kids; start Raising Adults!
