EP85: Helping Our Kids Get Organized with Laurie Palau

Today I bring you my conversation with host of the The Money, Career & Motherhood Podcast, Janice Scholl. Janice has made an entire career out of talking about money and business. She found her purpose when she began mentoring female entrepreneurs in 2012. Today, we define how value-based budgeting varies from a typical budget. The budget is designed to help people have the money to spend it on the things they want to. It shouldn’t feel like a restrictor but an enabler. Changing your family’s financial future requires a change in behavior and there’s no better time to start than today.

Today I bring you my conversation with author, Sharon Jaynes. Sharon is an international inspirational speaker and Bible teacher for women’s conferences and events. She is also the author of several books and today we’ll be discussing one of her most popular books, The Power of a Woman’s Words. In our conversation, Sharon will provide practical tips for encouraging our children with our words, how tiny shifts in our language can make a huge difference in our relationship with our children and she also begins the conversation with helpful tips that support positive communication with our spouses. I appreciated all of the wisdom that Sharon brought to the episode but if you’re specifically looking for her tips regarding children, skip to (around) minute twenty to bypass our conversation about spouses (though it’s a rich discussion that I do recommend giving a listen!)  Find all the resources mentioned in this show: Show Notes for EP117: The Way We Talk to Our Kids (and Why It Matters...)
