This week on the Cultivating the Lovely podcast, MacKenzie Koppa sits down for a heart to heart chat with her real life friend, author Tricia Goyer. Tricia is a wife and mother of 10, as well as caretaker for her 90-year-old grandmother, aside from being a busy speaker and author. This conversation centers around Tricia's new book The Grumble-Free Year(Affiliate links are used in this content.)

  • How and why Tricia embarked on the big family social experiment that became this book
  • Learning to go to God for help with changing attitudes instead of relying on ourselves
  • The difference between grumbling about something and being able to share our struggles with people who care
  • Choosing to focus on the solutions instead of just the problems
  • Acknowledging the hard things instead of trying stuff them inside while still deliberately choosing gratitude
  • Pointing out the things our children are doing well instead of picking on the things they are doing wrong
  • The power of apologizing and humbling ourselves to admit to our kids when we've messed up
  • Being aware of times when grumbling is more likely to happen and getting to the heart of the issue
  • Tricia tells the story of the Build-a-Bear incident
  • The reward of successfully working as a family to have better attitudes
  • Join the Grumble-Free 30 Day Challenge with Tricia during the holidays
  • A typical day in Tricia's family right now
