Episode 7-Instant Help in Your Darkest Hour with guest Clinton Faupel

Clinton Faupel, Co-Founder and Executive Director of RemedyLIVE is joining Paige Clingenpeel on this week's episode of Embracing Your Season. RemedyLIVE is a technology and faith based, non-profit that produces interactive events for people ages 13+ that are struggling with mental health issues. Clinton shares a wealth of knowledge in having those hard conversations with our teen’s about their secret struggles with anxiety, depression and suicidal thoughts.  Sometimes all it takes is someone to listen.

Paige’s Takeaways:

1. Don’t live in isolation.  When we stay in isolation it increases the lies that we believe exponentially. When we are alone it is harder to fight our struggles by ourselves. RemedyLIVE is a great resource for us all to use to address mental health struggles and find community. 
2. We need to practice active listening.  Just listening is one of the best predictors of health in your relationships with your child, teen, and even with your spouse. Sit side by side with your child and just listen.  Active listening can increase the success of your connection with your child. Recognize whether your child is in a war or peace time. This is helpful for navigating feelings and offering solutions that will be heard by your child.
3. Make a commitment to get off your phone and be present with your family. Be intentional with the time we have been given with our kids and love them well.
