Laugh Lines with Kim & Penn Holderness

We love to hear from our listeners, so this week we decided to try something new... we give very unqualified advice to all your questions! We give advice about college, making friends, negative comments, and a very controversial question from "Scooter." (Are you team frontsies or backsies?) Also, we give a life update about a recent trip to Charleston, South Carolina (and a fantasy Kim got to recently live out) as well as the Top 5 worst pieces of advice we've ever gotten. Listen, we only got through about half of our list of questions - should we continue our unqualified advice next week with a Part 2? Let us know!

When we wrote our book Everybody Fights, So Why Not Get Better At It we talked about magic words in a relationship. There are phrases you can say during discussions or arguments that help bring down the temperature or help each other open up - so couldn't there be the same for our kids? This week, we bring back one of our all-time favorite guests, Dr. Hope Seidel and get her advice about better communication. But we quickly learn (as we always do) that we need to reframe our thinking when it comes to our kids. Is wanting them to open up something that will help them, or are we making it about us? You can learn more about Dr. Hope Seidel and her parent coaching practice here: https://parentwithhope.com/. Stick around for the end as PC joins us for the Top 5 this week!

We’ve done some episodes before about questions for your spouse (especially when we were all quarantining in the pandemic and looking for stuff to do) but this episode goes deeper. In this podcast, we talk to Casey and Meygan Caston, authors of 365 Connecting Questions for Couples. It’s an entire year of open-ended questions to use (so if you’re trying to grow closer in your relationship, it’s a great resolution for the new year.) After a rocky start to their own marriage, the Castons used practical tools to heal their relationship and now share them through courses, coaching, and their book. Stay tuned, after the interview, we ask each other some of the questions in the book!  Visit Our ShopJoin Our NewsletterFollow us on YouTubeFollow us on InstagramFollow us on TikTok Follow us on FacebookKim and Penn are award-winning content creators known for their online videos, including original music, song parodies, and comedy sketches. Their videos have resulted in over 2 billion views and 9 million followers across their social media platforms since they (accidentally) went viral in 2013. They have a New York Times bestselling book on ADHD, best-selling book on marriage communication, a top-rated podcast, a fun-filled family card game, and most recently, they were the winners on Season 33 of The Amazing Race.The Holderness Family Podcast is produced by Ann Marie Taepke and edited and engineered by Max Trujillo of Trujillo Media and Sam Allen.

We're back! During the first weeks of a new year, Kim historically freaks out and copes by setting goals. As for me (Penn) I am not a goal setter.
