Roundtable: You’re So Thoughtful!
An encouraging text message, a quick hug, or help with a difficult task. Some people are just thoughtful. We brought some of the most sincerely kind people we know into the studio for a conversation on how to show thoughtfulness to others. From handwritten notes to a listening ear to a helping hand, there are many ways to show others you care. If you’re someone on the giving or receiving end of thoughtfulness, you know what a difference it makes. Listen in for practical ways to strengthen your thoughtfulness muscle.
Culture: Boundaries With Mom and Dad

What do your parents need from you as you stake your independence, and what does it look like to honor them while also forging healthy boundaries? Relationship expert Dr. Gary Chapman shares from personal and professional experience how to have honest conversations with your parents to ensure the best relational outcomes.
