  • Why Emotional Safety is the Bedrock of Parenting

    Why Emotional Safety is the Bedrock of Parenting
    Mar 4 2026
    In this episode, we lay the foundation for what really matters most when it comes to raising Gen Alpha kids—emotional safety. It’s also the beginning of how we got started with Famous at Home — discovering the power of, and talking about how to cultivate, a posture of emotional safety in our homes for our kids.

    As we continue season 8 on Parenting Gen Alpha, we define what emotional safety is and why it matters for getting every outcome we desire in our kids.

    We also talk about the four walls of parenting, the importance of reparenting our own inner child, and why emotional safety is so important to who our kids are becoming.

  • The One Factor For Raising Resilient Kids

    The One Factor For Raising Resilient Kids
    Feb 25 2026
    One of the most intriguing, humbling, and challenging aspects of being a parent is how our kids mirror who WE are.

    And what’s really difficult are the societal — or cultural — norms shaping who we are as humans.
    Who are we becoming as adults?
    How are the decisions we make shaping our kids?
    Do our unrealized emotions influence how resilient our kids are becoming?

    As we continue our series on Raising Gen Alpha Kids, these are questions Dr. Josh and Christi address. Some highlights include:
    • What it means to “choose your hard”
    • How loneliness becomes a byproduct of self-protection
    • How silence plays itself out in marriage and the cost it has on our kids
    • What if you’re exhausted and can’t choose the hard thing?
    • The joy and “hard” of helping our kids build resilience

    7:30 Choosing your hard

    20:03 How silence plays itself out in marriage and the cost it has on our kids
    23:10 What if you’re exhausted and can’t choose the hard thing?
    27:48 Choosing a different kind of “hard”
    32:41 The joy and “hard” of helping our kids build resilience

  • The Spiritual and Emotional Influence of Parental Fear

    The Spiritual and Emotional Influence of Parental Fear
    Feb 18 2026
    The stats of anxiety, depression, and stress on Gen Z (ages 14-28) are scary and higher than ever before. That’s not hyperbole.

    What have been the cultural, familial, and individual influences at work, and what can parents of Gen Alpha (ages 0-13) learn from where we find ourselves?

    We believe that parents hold the keys to influencing the next generation. And there is much more hope than might appear at the surface.

    But the way through is by first addressing what may be our greatest adversary: Our own parental fears.

    In this episode, we ask the question, “Why are we doing what we’re doing as families?” We address issues like the self-fulfilling prophecy, the role of epigenetics in child outcomes, and the spiritual laws that influence our decisions.

    1:03 Christi and Josh introduce a NEW season

    35:25 Conscious and unconscious choices we make as parents

    44:34 What is God’s role in how you parent?
