Have you ever wished you could give your child more personalized, one-on-one math help, but you donāt understand the math well enough to help and hiring a private math tutor is WAY too expensive? Most math curriculum has a problem. It was designed for the "average" student--not for your child's unique needs, learning style, and preferences. That's not a criticism of teachers or schools. It's just the reality of how mass-produced curriculum works. And when lessons aren't built for your...

Have you ever thought, "I really want to go deeper in studying God's Word, but I'm not sure where to start?" Maybe you've opened your Bible, stared at the page, and closed it again. Maybe you've tried (countless!) reading plans... only to fall off by February. Maybe you've bought or signed up for Bible studies in the past, but they didn't really help. They were too fluffy, too theoretical, or just not really relevant to YOUR life. Whether you're a mom in the trenches or a mature Christian...

Last week I told you about the California jury that ruled Meta and Google knowingly designed their platforms to be addictive and harmful to kids. But here's what I didn't know when I sent that email: There were actually two major verdicts last week. The day before the California ruling, a New Mexico jury ordered Meta to pay $375 million after finding that the company misled consumers and knowingly allowed children to be exposed to predators and sexually explicit content. Two juries. Two days....

Did you see the news? It was allll over my Instagram yesterday... According to an article on NPR: This past Wednesday, a California jury ruled that Meta (Facebook and Instagram) and Google (YouTube) knowingly designed their platforms to be addictive and that those design choices caused real harm to a real person. It's the first verdict of its kind. And it's a BIG deal. Not just for the family involved in this particular case, but because it sets a precedent and opens the door for further...

Ever scroll through social media and feel that familiar pang of "we should have that too"? Maybe it's the friend's kitchen renovation that makes yours look dated. The family vacation photos that make you question if you're giving your kids enough experiences. The cute Target haul that has you adding things to your cart you didn't even know you needed. You want a good life for your family. You want to provide well for them, create beautiful memories, give them opportunities. But then the guilt...
