#5 A Solo BAM podcast: Introducing the Parenting Series

Becoming a Matriarch Podcast

“Parenting is the hardest and most essential God-given calling for any human being.” We often hear that children are a “blank slate,” but the reality is much deeper. In this special solo episode, Lynn Nakimera-Mahner (host) kicks off our highly anticipated Parenting Series by diving into the foundations of a healthy home. From breaking generational cycles to the vital (and often misunderstood) role of a father’s emotional presence, this episode is a roadmap for anyone—whether you are a newlywed, an aspiring parent, or currently in the “beautiful mess” of raising kids. In this episode, we explore: * The Power of Lineage: Why studying your family history is the first step to becoming a better parent. * The Father’s Presence: Moving beyond “providing” to cultivating a deep emotional bond and guiding a child’s outlook on the world. We learn from Jeff Cookston’s article, Fathers and Children: Understanding the Misunderstandings (link here) * The Architecture of Discipline: How to use logical consequences and consistency to create a secure anchor for your children. * Self-Mastery: Why the discipline you want to see in your kids must start with you. * Takes a village: Raise your children with support from your tribe of similar faith and values and utilize your community resources. God did not design for us to do it alone. Parenting is a marathon, not a sprint. It requires grace, intention, and a village. Join us as we lay the foundation for raising resilient, wholehearted children who honor God. “Your presence and your direction are vital to developing capable adults. Do not disregard your presence.” To follow and get each episode delivered to your inbox, subscribe here If you like the episode, like the post ( click on the heart button under video).
