Principles Over Problems

Because loving your family doesn’t mean knowing what the hell you’re doing

If you’re tired of parenting like a firefighter—running from one meltdown to the next—this episode is your first-class ticket off the emotional hamster wheel.

In this punchy kickoff to Honey, We Screwed Up the Family, I unpack one of the most important mindset shifts no one is teaching parents:

Stop solving problems. Start leading with principles.

We’re ditching the TED Talks and breaking down what it actually looks like to:

  • Build character without lectures

  • Instill values that actually stick

  • Replace “but” with “and” to hold boundaries without emotional warfare

  • Stop negotiating with tiny terrorists (your kids… obviously)

I’ll share real-life stories (like losing a debate with my 4-year-old in a court of law—aka my living room), plus a list of the exact principles you can steal to build a stronger family culture starting today.

Mentioned in this episode:
📘 My book — Honey, We Fcked Up the Kids*
📬 My newsletter — Free parenting breakdowns that’ll save your sanity

🎯 Because loving your family doesn’t mean knowing what the hell you’re doing.
