It brings people together and is an opportunity to reset the playing field. Chris believes strong interdependent family structures lead to strong communities and businesses.EFA was formed by Chris and Joe Cohen (Author of Right Father, Right Son).Chris was influenced by Joe’s book. Interviewed Joe and saw a synergy and mutual belief that dads play an important role in the development of children. The EFA process was born out of this collaboration.EFA trains facilitators to bring the process to the communities. They have also partnered with Dream Smart Academy to get the program out to communities.More Notes:How to get from where you are now to healthy thriving family relationships. Getting caught up in perfection and expectations causes obstacles. Strive for harmony, be in the present, have grace when you fall short. Be focused on the process, strive for harmony not perfection.Let go of control - you can’t control what children, spouse, others do.Break pattern of pleasing and enabling (co-dependency)- empathy and kindness is interdependentIs it easy? No Perfect balance? No It’s all about harmonyTips for today:This situation shall pass. You can only do your best. Clear, specific communication is key.People learn from what they observe. Set the example.Relate and understand. Then be clear about expectations and what the day looks like.Strive for that harmony.Know it’s a process and do the best you can.Kids need to feel heard, as we all do.Keeping things in perspective and clear, we can begin to develop solutions.Control what you can, letting go of what you can’t. When you’ve mastered that things will start to change for the better.We get in our own way. You vs you, we vs weEFA’s wish is for every family to put that into practice.Give without expectation. Receive without resistance.

Today’s guests are co-founders of The Resting Mind, co-hosts of the podcast Make Your Life Magnificent with Jackie + Mimi, and certified life coaches who work with us Generation X women on the things keeping them up at night. We’re talking things like finances, marriage, career, aging parents and anxiety.These ladies help Gen X women create sustainable change using proprietary tools that combine brain science and energy leadership . You may have seen them in Business Insider, Entrepreneur, Thrive Global, Tiny Buddha or TEDX. Please welcome today’s guests, Jackie Ghedine + Mimi Bishop.Jackie and Mimi looked around and realized there weren't many resources towards their GenX peers. All the while, women in this age group were struggling with finances, aging parents, special needs kids and now Coronavirus, homeschooling and more. They launched The Resting Mind based off an article, then book, by Ada Calhoun, titled "Why We Can't Sleep."They strive to help women give themselves permission to focus on what THEY want vs serving everyone else's needs and expectations first.Generally, they have found that GenX women know they are unhappy, but they don't quite know why. This generation has both the freedom and the pressure of being the first women that truly had career choices, such as doctor vs nurse and CEO vs secretary. Add to that all the normal parenting, relationship and career stresses and now a pandemic and volatile social climate, and Jackie & Mimi have seen their business grow helping women in 2020.They talk about tools such as The 8% Rule and the Worry Log to help their clients reframe stress and anxiety, raising energy levels and confidence. A big part of the puzzle is to help GenX women and all humans to understand that we have more choice about what happens around us than we think.No longer do you need to live with your off-the-charts chronic stress. Learn to develop practices for stress-filled moments and understand your stress triggers so you can change how you respond to them.5 Steps to Stress Less https://bit.ly/36Llnf8Join our Facebook Group, Just Gen X - The Resting Mind - https://www.facebook.com/groups/therestingmind/Podcast: Make Your Life Magnificent - https://www.therestingmind.com/podcastFind more episodes at http://www.kimberlyhenrie.com/the-showJoin us in the Living the Good Life Facebook Group!https://www.facebook.com/groups/LTGLCommunity
