The Dad Rules Compilation explores a humorous yet relatable set of “dad rules” covering fitness etiquette, grocery store behavior, men’s fashion, and the culture of fatherhood. Blending real-life scenarios with bold opinions, the conversation outlines what it means to be a modern dad—and what behaviors should be avoided.A major focus of the discussion is gym etiquette. The hosts emphasize that dads should never wear weightlifting gloves, arguing that calluses symbolize hard work and commitment. They also highlight a controversial take: sumo deadlifts don’t count, calling them an ego lift with no real functional benefit. The podcast stresses traditional lifting form, discipline, and teaching sons the value of physical effort.Another standout rule is about grocery cart etiquette, a surprisingly viral topic in dad culture. The hosts believe leaving a cart in the parking lot is a major character flaw. A real dad always returns the grocery cart to the designated cart return, no excuses—even for older adults. This dad rule reinforces responsibility, accountability, and respect for shared spaces.The discussion also takes aim at dad fashion pitfalls, specifically calling for the end of cargo shorts and outdated jeans bought decades ago. The hosts claim modern dads need to stay somewhat current with fashion rather than relying on old, oversized, below-the-knee shorts or early-2000s denim. The humor underscores a real message: stay presentable, stay confident, and avoid becoming a walking time capsule.The conversation shifts into fantasy football, a cherished dad tradition. The hosts insist on live drafts, not online ones, arguing that the camaraderie, road trips, and competitive rituals build lasting friendships. They describe a homemade NFL-style combine—complete with sprinting, punting, and broad jumps—to determine draft order. This reinforces a core theme: fatherhood thrives on connection, laughter, and traditions shared with the “dude group.”Overall, the compilation blends comedy with practical life principles. The dad rules emphasize fitness discipline, proper etiquette, modern style, and male bonding rituals, all wrapped in a humorous, conversational tone. These rules are aspirational yet accessible, giving dads a simple roadmap for being more intentional, respectful, confident, and fun.✦ About Ernie Burns & Burns Estate Planning & Wealth AdvisorsPresident & CEO: Ernie M.

In this episode, Ray and Parfait dive deep into the real meaning of failure, discipline, and doing hard things—and how these principles shape success in sports, business, parenting, and everyday life. They break down why people fear failure, why excuses become our biggest obstacle, and how building discipline through small daily challenges leads to long-term growth.Sports becomes a central metaphor throughout the episode. Ray and Parfait talk about coaching, competition, and how a “win the next pitch” mentality helps kids (and adults) bounce back quickly. They highlight the difference between getting beat by someone better versus beating yourself with avoidable mistakes. Both agree that sports teach powerful life skills—accountability, resilience, and learning to analyze what went wrong instead of getting emotional about it.A major theme is discipline vs. comfort. Parfait shares his personal mission to “do something hard every day,” whether it’s CrossFit at 4 a.m., road biking, learning new hobbies, or pushing past the desire to coast. Ray reflects on his own struggles with discipline, especially around fitness and self-accountability. They call out how easily adults make excuses—especially hiding behind “I don’t have time”—when in reality, discipline is a choice.Parenting also enters the conversation with a powerful framework: Parfait’s new journaling practice with his son. Each day, his son writes down something hard, something easy, something he wants to improve, and something kind he did for someone else. The goal? Teach kids to identify challenges, build self-awareness, and develop emotional discipline.Faith plays a role as well. Ray opens up about making Scripture reading his “hard thing,” highlighting how spiritual discipline is often more difficult than physical discipline because it requires patience, humility, and sustained focus.The episode closes with a discussion around youth sports culture and the controversial idea of “playing to get better, not to win.” Ray and Parfait push back—believing you practice to get better and play to win, because winning requires effort, teamwork, and high standards. They end with the reminder that practice makes progress, not perfection, and the key to improvement is consistently choosing the hard thing over the easy one.✦ About Ernie Burns & Burns Estate Planning & Wealth AdvisorsPresident & CEO: Ernie M.

In a special Father’s Day episode of the New Dad Order Podcast, hosts Ray and Parfait welcome their longtime friend and first guest, Jason Lipscomb, a local real estate mogul and entrepreneur from Ponchatoula, Louisiana. Jason’s inspiring journey from dealing cards at poker tables to becoming a top-producing real estate broker, investor, and restaurateur highlights the power of hustle, motivation, and family values.Jason first stepped into the poker world as a dealer after realizing he wasn’t a great player. What started in small card rooms soon led him to run some of the biggest tournaments, including the World Series of Poker and high-stakes games across the country. His poker career taught him discipline, people skills, and the ability to thrive under pressure — qualities that later fueled his success in real estate.When the casino industry shifted and Jason became a new father, he transitioned into real estate sales. What began as a way to control his own investments quickly grew into a thriving career. Jason built one of Louisiana’s leading real estate teams, closing over $60 million in transactions annually, and later launched his own brokerage, Downtown Realty, right in the heart of Ponchatoula. By focusing on listings, smart delegation, and strong local relationships, Jason created a scalable model that allowed him to become one of the area’s most respected brokers.Jason’s entrepreneurial spirit doesn’t stop at real estate. He has invested in commercial properties, restaurants, and community projects, helping preserve the small-town charm of downtown Ponchatoula while driving local growth. His philosophy is simple: shop local, support local, and reinvest in the community that raised you. This commitment has made him a cornerstone of the region’s business landscape.Beyond business, Jason is a dedicated father of five, including bonus children. He emphasizes leading by example, teaching his kids the value of hard work, balance, and resilience. From supporting his son’s journey to LSU Law School, to encouraging his daughter’s entrepreneurial dream of opening a bakery, to backing his youngest son’s athletic pursuits, Jason blends fatherhood with mentorship. He openly shares lessons on work-life balance, acknowledging the sacrifices of his early hustle years while celebrating the ability to now be more present for his family.Jason’s story is also about embracing change and seizing opportunity. Whether transitioning from poker to real estate, or expanding into restaurants and investments, he demonstrates how adaptability, grit, and vision can create generational impact. His hobbies — from pickleball and boating to traveling with family — underscore the importance of enjoying the fruits of hard work while continuing to build for the future.This episode offers powerful insights for fathers, entrepreneurs, and anyone chasing success: embrace risk, delegate wisely, invest in your community, and never stop learning. Jason Lipscomb’s journey proves that with focus and heart, you can go from poker dealer to real estate broker and beyond — building not just a business, but a legacy.📩 Reach Out:Jerrard:📧 Email: jmparfait@gmail.com📱 Instagram: @itsparfaitRay:📧 Email: rbelvin91@gmail.com💤 Sleep & Recovery:Melatonin-Free Sleep & Recovery for Peak Fitness👉 Hit this link and use promo code: NDOZZZ🔗 https://thirdzy.com/⚡ Energy Boost:Need a new energy drink?

In this episode of The New Dad Order, Ray and Parfait break down what it truly means to have “Ice in the Veins” — that elite-level calm under pressure that separates average performers from true leaders. Drawing from college football memories, parenting lessons, and the psychology of performance, they unpack how emotional control, preparation, and resilience build both great athletes and confident kids.Ray shares his first start at the University of Pittsburgh vs. Notre Dame, reliving the nerves, a dropped pass, and the immediate bounce-back that led to a breakout performance. He reflects on playing alongside legends like Curtis Martin and Alex Van Pelt, and being coached by future NFL greats like Jon Gruden, Mike McCarthy, and Marvin Lewis. These stories illustrate how poise under pressure and quiet confidence often matter more than hype or volume.The hosts explore the difference between quiet and loud leadership, comparing Tom Brady, Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, Drew Brees, and Peyton Manning. Each led differently—but all shared a mastery of focus, calm, and execution. The phrase “ice in the veins” isn’t arrogance—it’s emotional maturity, the ability to stay grounded and perform when it counts.⏱️ Timestamps / Chapters00:00 – Intro | What “Ice in the Veins” Really Means02:10 – Cold-Blooded or Calm?

This episode explores the often-unspoken reality behind modern masculinity — where strength and vulnerability collide. This episode dives deep into the emotional struggles men face in silence, the pressure to “be the rock,” and the hidden cost of suppressing pain. Hosts Ray and Parfait open a real conversation about how men can carry strength without losing their humanity, combining stoic principles with emotional intelligence to define what healthy masculinity looks like in 2025.This discussion challenges outdated stereotypes about what it means to “be a man.” The hosts unpack courage, leadership, and emotional control — emphasizing that masculinity is not about hiding emotions but mastering them. Drawing from real-life experiences and pop culture icons like Kobe Bryant, Michael Jordan, and Yellowstone’s John Dutton, the episode reveals how true confidence is rooted in preparation, composure, and calm under pressure. When men learn to lead with balance — strength without arrogance, vulnerability without collapse — they unlock what the show calls “quiet power.”In “Real Leadership Starts with Emotional Control” the conversation turns raw and real. The hosts talk about grief, anxiety, and the weight men carry when life demands composure in moments of chaos — from funerals to fatherhood to everyday leadership. They highlight how being stoic doesn’t mean being emotionless. Instead, it’s about the discipline to act with courage and clarity when others need you most. Through humor, honesty, and sharp insight, “When Men Break” bridges old-school values and modern emotional awareness. The hosts challenge the “alpha male” myth, arguing that real masculinity thrives on humility, purpose, and preparedness. They discuss the difference between performative strength and authentic resilience — showing that calm leadership, not dominance, defines real power. 👉 Subscribe for weekly episodes on leadership, parenting, and resilience — real talk for people who want to build strength, not excuses.✦ About Ernie Burns & Burns Estate Planning & Wealth AdvisorsPresident & CEO: Ernie M.

In Episode 30 of the New Dad Order Podcast, hosts Ray and Parfait dive into the unspoken rules of emotional intelligence, and conversation skills. The episode opens with a relatable truth—how men often default to saying “I’m good” even when they’re not. It’s a cultural shorthand for emotional restraint, politeness, and control, but it can also isolate men from real connection. The hosts explore how social conditioning makes men less likely to express vulnerability and more likely to keep conversations surface-level.Small Talk and Social ConfidenceThe conversation shifts to small talk—the “elevator speech” moments that define first impressions. Ray and Parfait share humorous stories from retail jobs, where polite interactions often turned into oversharing sessions. They dissect the difference between genuine connection and social obligation, offering practical advice for men who struggle with social anxiety or party settings. Ray admits he’s not the life of the party, but he’s learned techniques to navigate unfamiliar rooms. His go-to strategy? Find common ground. He uses sports (especially Saints and LSU football) as easy conversation entry points, then pivots into personal stories or shared experiences. Their takeaway: being interesting is really about being curious. Ask questions, look for context clues—like family photos or travel pictures—and invite others to talk about themselves.Debate, and Emotional ControlThe second half of the episode focuses on how men debate, argue, and manage emotions. Ray confesses he often walks away from heated conversations replaying what he “should’ve said,” while Parfait explains his “poker-face” approach: stay calm, lower emotional intensity, and never mirror the other person’s anger. This emotional discipline, is key to effective masculine communication. It’s not about domination—it’s about maintaining composure to earn respect and keep control of the narrative👉 Subscribe for weekly episodes on leadership, parenting, and resilience — real talk for people who want to build strength, not excuses.✦ About Ernie Burns & Burns Estate Planning & Wealth AdvisorsPresident & CEO: Ernie M.

In this episode of the Water to Wine Podcast, two dads open up about faith, family, and friendship—and how God often turns the simple, ordinary moments of life into the “good wine” that nourishes our souls. Drawing inspiration from Jesus’ first miracle at Cana, they explore what it means to live out faith not just in church, but in marriage, parenting, and daily relationships.One host shares how joining a Catholic couples’ ministry—the “Together in Holiness” program at a parish in Ponchatoula—has strengthened his marriage and community. The other reflects on an unexpected blessing: discovering an older half-brother and starting a biweekly family Bible study over Zoom. Both stories point to one truth: God moves through community, and the friendships rooted in faith can transform our homes and hearts.This episode reminds listeners that small spiritual habits—like praying with your spouse, taking a nightly walk, or reading Scripture with your kids—can be more powerful than grand gestures. As one host says, “It’s not about the big events; it’s about the daily moments where God meets us.” Together, they highlight Proverbs 3:5–6, encouraging listeners to “trust in the Lord with all your heart,” and Matthew 28:19, calling every believer to live out the Great Commission in their own home.The conversation turns practical as they discuss Christian parenting in today’s culture—teaching kids to know and love Scripture before the world shapes their beliefs. They challenge parents not just to talk about faith but to open the Bible at home and make prayer part of family life. It’s about turning water—our everyday routines—into wine, the spiritual richness of intentional living.👉 Subscribe for weekly episodes on leadership, parenting, and resilience — real talk for people who want to build strength, not excuses.✦ About Ernie Burns & Burns Estate Planning & Wealth AdvisorsPresident & CEO: Ernie M.

Is America getting too soft to defend itself — or even raise resilient kids? In this episode, Ray and Parfait break down Pete Hegseth’s passionate warning about soft culture, weak leadership, and fading standards. They connect his message to everyday parenting, youth sports, and the modern military, asking the hard question: Can a soft generation survive in a hard world?From the soccer field to the battlefield, this discussion exposes how lowering standards and protecting kids from failure creates fragile adults. Ray and Parfait share real coaching and parenting experiences that reveal the difference between controlled failure (where growth happens) and uncontrolled collapse (where accountability disappears). Their solution: let kids struggle safely, teach them to take ownership, and rebuild a mindset rooted in discipline, merit, and leadership.They explore how the “participation trophy era” has crept into workplaces and the armed forces alike, eroding excellence in the name of inclusion. The conversation shifts to military readiness, the National Guard’s role, and whether domestic deployments distract from the core mission of warfighting.

In this episode, the hosts break down Pete Hegseth’s fiery 45-minute speech to military generals, focusing on standards, leadership, and the future of the U.S. military. The unscripted and passionate delivery impressed both hosts, who argue it was one of the clearest calls to action on restoring accountability and readiness in today’s armed forces.Core TakeawaysRaise Standards, Not Lower Them: Hegseth stresses fitness, grooming, and discipline as key indicators of readiness. The hosts agree—arguing that enforcing high standards across all ranks, including generals, ensures combat preparedness.Toxic Leadership Defined: Promotions based on quotas instead of merit undermine trust and capability. The phrase “toxic leadership is adhering to low standards” resonates strongly throughout the discussion.Grievances & Accountability: One host cautions that dismissing “grievances” could silence real misconduct victims, while the other emphasizes that weak standards already slipped down a “slippery slope.”DEI & Quotas: Heated debate arises over diversity, equity, and inclusion. The concern: quota-driven promotions risk discrediting qualified leaders, especially minority officers, by framing them as “DEI hires.”Masculinity & Vigilance: The hosts connect military readiness to everyday life—discussing situational awareness, protecting family, and the “strong men create good times, weak men create hard times” cycle.Notable Moments“Small things matter”—beards, haircuts, and uniforms signal discipline and order.Praise for holding generals to the same fitness tests as enlisted soldiers: “Thank you for your service… it’s time to move on” if they can’t pass.Rebranding the Pentagon back to the “War Department” as a reminder of its true mission.Practical family protection tips: seating in restaurants, footwear choices, and positioning loved ones safely in public spaces.Where They DifferTrump Shout-outs: Some parts of Hegseth’s speech—like references to Donald Trump—felt unnecessary and more like ego-stroking than substance.Balance of Standards vs. Protection: Tension between enforcing hardline standards and ensuring legitimate complaints (like assault or abuse) aren’t buried.✦ About Ernie Burns & Burns Estate Planning & Wealth AdvisorsPresident & CEO: Ernie M.

This episode examines three of the most talked-about stories of 2025: the Charlie Kirk assassination, the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel, and the debate over deploying the National Guard in New Orleans.The conversation begins with the shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk, a moment that shook the political landscape and intensified national concerns about political violence. The episode explores not only the facts of the case but also the media reaction and the way the story has been framed across different outlets.Attention then turns to the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel, following his controversial remarks connected to Kirk’s death. This segment asks whether the incident reflects the persistence of cancel culture or a more straightforward case of accountability. The blurred line between free speech, public consequences, and claims of censorship is analyzed within the broader context of America’s ongoing culture wars.From there, the focus shifts to crime and policing in New Orleans, where leaders are debating whether the National Guard should assist local police. The proposal comes despite reports that violent crime has declined by nearly 20% in 2025. The episode highlights the tension between statistics showing progress and political moves suggesting crisis, questioning what it means to normalize troop patrols in U.S. cities.The discussion raises several broader questions:Has the phrase cancel culture lost meaning in today’s debates, or is it still useful for understanding cultural clashes?What role should accountability play when celebrities and media figures make controversial statements?How should the U.S. respond to crime in cities where trends are improving but public trust remains shaky?Does deploying the military in American neighborhoods strengthen public safety or signal deeper problems in governance and policing?Throughout the episode, these stories are connected to larger themes of political polarization, cultural tension, and public safety. The result is a timely and thought-provoking breakdown of how politics, media, and security collide in America in 2025.0:00-intro 0:49-Show intro 1:19-Lost faith in humanity? 1:29-thirdly ad 4:14-We talk about Jimmy Kimmel 9:43-Disneys decision 11:44-Letterman fan 13:30-Not a lot watching late night tv 14:11-Conspiracy theories 14:39 -Same thoughts from previous episode on Charlie Kirk? 16:39-Dubby Ad 17:20-Don’t talk about your faith 21:43-Propaganda monologue 22:22-National Guard discussion 35:00-Wrap up🎧 Listen on Spotify: New Dad Order Podcast on Spotify📸 Follow us on Instagram: @newdadorderpodcast1#CharlieKirk #NewDadOrder #Podcast #CharlieKirkMurder #Politics #FreedomOfSpeech📩 Reach Out:Jerrard:📧 Email: jmparfait@gmail.com📱 Instagram: @itsparfaitRay:📧 Email: rbelvin91@gmail.com💤 Sleep & Recovery:Melatonin-Free Sleep & Recovery for Peak Fitness👉 Hit this link and use promo code: NDOZZZ🔗 https://thirdzy.com/⚡ Energy Boost:Need a new energy drink?

In Episode 23 of the New Dad Order podcast, Ray and Parfait dive into the funniest, strangest, and most absurd house rules and parenting myths they grew up with. From weird family traditions to childhood superstitions, the episode unpacks the rules parents swore were true but turned out to be nothing more than myths or scare tactics.The Strangest House RulesSome rules were practical, but others made no sense at all. One example was the “no shoes and no socks inside” rule, meant to keep the house clean but taken to an extreme. Another? No sleeping past 8 AM on weekends, because sleeping in was seen as being “lazy.” Families also enforced no singing at the table, no eating in the living room, and the classic “don’t use the nice towels or soap” reserved for guests only.Parenting Myths We All HeardRay and Parfait laugh about the myths nearly every kid was told:“Don’t swallow gum, it stays in your stomach for 7 years.”“No swimming after eating for 30 minutes.”“Turn off the car’s dome light—it’s illegal.”“Sit too close to the TV and you’ll go blind.”These myths weren’t just funny—they shaped how kids behaved, even though none of them were true.Childhood Superstitions and Family BeliefsThe hosts also share unique cultural superstitions. One rule claimed that whistling indoors invited ghosts. Another tradition suggested rubbing a potato on a wart and burying it to make it disappear. Families even believed that planting a baby’s umbilical cord stump by rose bushes would make the flowers bloom more beautifully.Outdated Safety RulesThe episode highlights how safety was viewed differently back then. Many kids rode in the back of pickup trucks or skipped wearing seatbelts in the back seat because parents thought it was safe. Others were told that wearing the seatbelt incorrectly could “cut you in half” during an accident—another scare tactic with no truth.Why These Rules Stick With UsWhile most of these childhood rules and myths turned out to be false, they remain memorable because of how often parents repeated them. Some were rooted in caution (like not swallowing gum), while others were just cultural traditions passed down without question.Today, parents laugh at how absurd these rules sound but also reflect on how they shaped childhood experiences. Whether it was drinking from the garden hose, turning lights off to “save money,” or avoiding “guest towels,” these weird family rules and parenting myths became part of growing up.👉 If you love stories about funny parenting rules, childhood myths, and family superstitions, this episode of the New Dad Order podcast is packed with nostalgia, humor, and a reminder that sometimes the strangest rules make the best memories.📩 Reach Out:Jerrard:📧 Email: jmparfait@gmail.com📱 Instagram: @itsparfaitRay:📧 Email: rbelvin91@gmail.com💤 Sleep & Recovery:Melatonin-Free Sleep & Recovery for Peak Fitness👉 Hit this link and use promo code: NDOZZZ🔗 https://thirdzy.com/⚡ Energy Boost:Need a new energy drink?

Breakfast Cereal, 90s Nostalgia, Saturday Morning Cartoons, Sugar Smacks, Frosted Flakes, Lucky Charms, Apple Jacks, and Corn Pops — in this episode of the New Dad Order Podcast, Ray and Parfait take you back to the golden days of childhood when cereal and cartoons ruled Saturday mornings.The hosts start by declaring their favorite childhood cereals: Sugar Smacks (both agree it was their number one pick). From there, the cereal debate heats up with Apple Jacks, Corn Pops, and the ever-popular Frosted Flakes. They laugh about whether Wheaties were just Corn Flakes in a different box, share hot takes on why Lucky Charms marshmallows weren’t really marshmallows, and admit that some cereals like Cookie Crisp were “too much” even for kids.Classic cereal mascots also get a shoutout — Tony the Tiger, Toucan Sam, and the Trix Rabbit — as the guys remember how commercials influenced what ended up in the pantry. They dive into retro cereals tied to cartoons like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Ghostbusters, and Batman, all of which were just Lucky Charms knockoffs with different marshmallow shapes.The episode blends cereal rankings, funny debates, childhood stories, and retro advertising nostalgia, making it a perfect listen for anyone who grew up in the 1980s, 1990s, or early 2000s. Whether you loved sugary cereals, healthy cereals like Cheerios, or gimmick cereals tied to cartoons, you’ll find yourself nodding along — or arguing in your head about which box was truly the best.By the end, both hosts realize they actually agreed on way too much (especially their love for Sugar Smacks and Frosted Flakes) and invite listeners to share their own favorite cereals in the comments.📩 Reach Out:Jerrard:📧 Email: jmparfait@gmail.com📱 Instagram: @itsparfaitRay:📧 Email: rbelvin91@gmail.com💤 Sleep & Recovery:Melatonin-Free Sleep & Recovery for Peak Fitness👉 Hit this link and use promo code: NDOZZZ🔗 https://thirdzy.com/⚡ Energy Boost:Need a new energy drink?

n this episode of the New Dad Order podcast, co-host Jerrard shares his firsthand experience using Thirdzy, a natural sleep supplement, and how it compares to his previous go-to: Beam, a CBD-based sleep aid. As a dad who juggles early mornings and long commutes, Jerrard gives a detailed, no-hype breakdown of how Thirdzy affected his sleep quality, referencing data from his WHOOP sleep tracker. He explains how Thirdzy helped him reach deep sleep faster, without the grogginess he sometimes felt after using Beam.Jerrard talks about how Beam worked well for a time, especially when paired with warm milk, but eventually he wanted something more well-rounded—without melatonin or CBD. That led to his switch to Thirdzy, which he says gives him a “night and day” difference in how rested he feels. The conversation digs into ingredients, routines (including adding electrolytes for overnight hydration), and real-world results from using both products.Later, the dads pivot to a deeper discussion around parenting psychology—specifically the emotional impact of things parents say without thinking. They explore phrases like “What’s wrong with you?” and “I wish you were more like your sister” and how these comments, even if unintentional, can hurt a child’s sense of identity or self-worth. The guys reflect on their own upbringings, cultural norms, and how they’re learning to parent more consciously.The episode blends dad life, health optimization, and emotional intelligence, making it a valuable resource for parents who want to feel better and do better.Key topics:Thirdzy sleep aid vs Beam CBD sleep powderNatural sleep without melatonin or grogginessWHOOP deep sleep tracking & resultsParenting psychology: harmful vs helpful languageHow dads can balance health, stress, and emotional parentingT⏱️ YouTube Timestamps00:00 – Welcome & Episode 18 Overview01:32 – Ray’s First Experience with Thirds Sleep Supplement02:41 – Beam CBD Sleep Aid: How It Worked (and Downsides)03:35 – Why Ray Switched from Beam to Thirds04:36 – Sleep Tracking with Whoop & Deep Sleep Benefits06:11 – Doctor’s Opinion on Thirds (Non-Melatonin Advantage)07:33 – Real-Life Benefits: Waking Up Rested Without Grogginess08:37 – How Thirds Makes 3 Hours Feel Like 809:54 – Sleep Patterns & Recovery Insights10:20 – Why Ray Subscribed to Thirds for Good11:13 – Nootropic-Based Pre-Workout Introduction12:04 – Parenting Story: The Ice Cream Incident13:09 – “What’s Wrong With You?” – Harmless or Harmful?14:40 – The Context Matters: Behavior vs. Personal Traits15:46 – “I Wish You Were More Like…” – Healthy Advice or Hurtful Comparison?16:49 – When Comparison is Used for Positive Traits17:21 – Cultural Context: Asian Firstborn Expectations18:27 – Final Thoughts on Parenting Phrases & Character Development👇 Drop your thoughts below!✅ Don’t forget to LIKE 👍, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE for more honest talks on health, recovery, and parenting.🔔 Hit the bell so you never miss an episode!Reach out to Jerrard or RayJerrard-Jmparfait@gmail.comJerrard-IG is @itsparfait Ray-rbelvin91@gmail.comMelatonin-Free Sleep & Recovery for Peak fitness-Hit this link and use our promo code-NDOZZZhttps://thirdzy.com/Need a new energy drink get Dubby Energy!https://www.dubby.gg/discount/NEWDADO...We are also on the following sites:Instagram- / newdadorderpodcast1 Spotify-https://creators.spotify.com/pod/show...tiktok- / newdadorder
