In this episode, Lynn McLaughlin and I have a conversation about using a proactive approach and evidence-based strategies to help children build self-awareness, motivation, empathy, and social and self-regulation skills at a young age.
Lynn McLaughlinâs mission is to lead and empower people to make conscious and positive choices. She gives people the opportunity to share their voices through her podcast Taking the Helm, her writing, and public speaking.
As a best-selling and award-winning author, Lynn has now teamed up with her niece, Amber Raymond, to co-author a childrenâs book series titled, âThe Power of Thoughtâ. Both she and Amber are passionate about being proactive when it comes to childrenâs mental health. When children learn to manage their emotions at a young age, they learn to problem-solve and find positive solutions to everyday situations.
Which is something that we are so focused on here on The Empowered Child Podcast.
Lynnâs professional speaking experiences have been local, provincial, and international as she leads us in tackling our barriers so that we can move forward to new and exciting possibilities.
Dedicated to community causes, Lynn is a member of 100 Women Who Care Windsor/Essex and is a Rotarian. As a brain tumor survivor, she works tirelessly to support the goals of the Brain Tumour Foundation of Canada. She shares more of her story and is truly a champion in every sense of the word.
As an educator ⊠Superintendent, Principal, Vice-Principal, Teacher, and Educational Consultant, Lynn McLaughlin served in many roles. In addition to her business, Lynn continues to be active in education, teaching future Educational Assistants at her local College.
This was a powerful and fun conversation. I hope you enjoy it as well.

In this episode, I have a conversation with Heidi Speaker. Heidi is a 33-year-old mother of 3 children ranging from ages 7 to 18 mo. She is the CEO and founder of Growth and Gainz, an online health & fitness coaching company. She specializes in helping adhd moms build muscle, burn body fat, while boosting their mental & emotional health in the process.
Growing up with a stigma around adhd, and thinking it was a just a poor excuse people made for their lack of work ethic, Heidi soon realized the power and growth that would come when she learned the truth about adhd, how it impacted her, and the treatments & tools available to overcoming the shame and pitfalls that are so common with ADHD.
Heidiâs journey is one of ups and downs, but a happy ending where she is thriving and living her best life!
She initially coped and managed her adhd by working harder than everyone else, journaling, and staying structured with exercise and routines.
After having two children, her symptoms became unmanageable as she didnât know how to ask for help, or understand all the sensations she was experiencing in her body.
As she got better at seeking out resources, asking for help, and stepping into the scary world of vulnerability, Heidi saw the growth that came and got addicted.
She has since had a third baby, launched her online business, and grown her influence to now helping hundreds of other women overcome their own crippling fears and habits so they too can step into a life they love in a body theyâre proud of.
She has also competed in two bodybuilding shows since her third baby, who just turned 18 months old.
Join us today as we have talk more about her journey and the tools that have been most helpful in her growth and successes.

In this episode, I have a conversation with Mike Wallach. Mike lives in Edmonds with his wife and 4 young children. Heâs a Behavior Analyst and he loves to share positive, practical, and effective tools with parents to improve every member of the familyâs experience. Through his work he has broke down the specific actions we can take (and avoid) to create a happier household⊠like, siblings who care about each other, minimal frustration for everyone, and how to create lasting, healthy relationships.
We chat about how parenting is exhausting with or without effective strategies, but with more purposeful strategies...parenting becomes more rewarding and less defeating. The insights and strategies he shares are from what he calls the RIGHT approach, which is an acronym he explains throughout, and the strategies actually WORK to drive a closer connection with your children. This conversation was a lot of fun, and I hope it will be for you as well.

In the episode, I have a conversation with Drew Tupper. He is an author, life coach, husband, and father of two. He has dedicated his life to seeking truth and creating purpose.
He practices these intentions by examining and analyzing questions such as:
Why are we here?
How should we live?
What matters?
And how can we BE so that our lives are an outward projection of our being?
He has overcome struggle and knows what it feels like to feel stuck, angry, and lost. His life is a testament to the adage that growth is not always a straightforward path, but that it is always a worthwhile pursuit. In his words, he âfound liberation in loving himself unconditionally,â which âallows him to create his life, rather than react.â Now, this is what helps his clients do.
During this conversation, we talk about shame and how it affects us, and how to validate and separate yourself from emotions so that you don't cultivate co-dependency, we also touch on the topics of the masculine and feminine within a relationship dynamic and so much more. Enjoy!
The link to his book and other ways you can connect with Drew is in the show notes below. :)

The Myth Of Calm With Carly Soare
In this episode, I have a conversation with Carly Soare. This was such a candid, fun conversation that debunks the Myth of Calm. We talk about what it is, why it's harmful, and what we can do about it.
Carly is a certified Speech-Language Pathologist and Executive Function Coach. She developed the Authentic Emotional Regulation program for parents who are looking to cultivate a closer connection with their child, (and themselves!), even in the midst of meltdowns and challenging moments. Through her Parenting With Intention coaching sessions, Carly merges her comprehensive understanding of child learning development with real-life parenting experience. As a mom of two deeply-feeling and enthusiastic children (currently ages 4 & 6), she brings compassionate understanding and immediately applicable ideas to each session.
We also chatted about "Authentic Emotional Regulationâ, what it is and why it's important for cultivating a closer connection with your child & what does putting on your own oxygen mask even mean and how can we as parents do this?
