  • Master Your Vibe - Nonverbal Communication for Parents
    Jul 4 2025

    Most of what we say as parents never comes out of our mouths. 93% of communication is nonverbal — our tone, our energy, our body language. Our kids pick up on our vibe long before we ever speak.

    In this episode, I talk about how to charge up your nonverbal communication on purpose — so you don’t accidentally leak stress or frustration onto your family when you walk in the door. I share simple ways to reset your energy:

    A quick five-minute parking lot pause

    A three-breath vibe reset you can do walking up to your front door

    A simple visualization trick to set the tone for your second shift at home

    This is real, practical vibe work for parents — whether you’re a first-timer or running on your fourth kid and no sleep.

  • #007 Live Art, Loud Music, and Raising Creative Kids
    Jun 25 2025

    What’s Inside:

    In this episode, I reflect on the life-changing power of live performance—from taking my daughter to a Metallica concert, to watching plays and acrobats at the Renaissance fair, to navigating the noise of AI in kids' lives.

    Whether you're a homeschool parent, a creative, or just want to share more real-world magic with your kids, this episode delivers inspiration, practical ideas, and a call to reconnect with what’s human, handmade, and heartfelt.

    Takeaway Challenge:

    Look up a live event happening in your area this week—whether it’s a play, a concert, or a kid-friendly festival—and go experience it. And don’t forget: you playing music at home matters just as much.

  • #006 The Love of Family That Drives Us
    Jun 14 2025

    In the long-overdue episode six, I break down the tagline I’m sticking with for now: Henry’s Cabin, where we talk about the love of family that drives us, stories that guide us, and life lessons that form us. In this episode, I discuss:

    - The origin of the entirely too lengthy tagline:

    - Whom I seek to obtain parenting advice from.

    - Why kids go nuts at bedtime

    - Bedtime stories for children of varied ages.

    - The need to continue an evening tradition of connection with teenagers.

    - Why I journal, especially as a dad.
