  • 139. How to Set Yourselves Up for 2026: Positioning Yourself to Win
    Jan 14 2026

    In this episode, Jason and Lauren Vallotton invite listeners into a practical and intentional conversation about preparing for the year ahead. As 2026 approaches, they challenge couples and families to move beyond vague hopes and instead position themselves to win through clarity, reflection, and aligned action. This episode is about slowing down long enough to ask the right questions—and taking ownership of what truly matters.

    In This Episode:
    • Why having a clear plan is essential for long-term success
    • How to assess whether you—and your family—are actually set up for success
    • The importance of defining a target before trying to hit it
    • Why reflection on the past year is a necessary step before planning the next one
    • How intentional, dedicated time with a spouse creates alignment and shared vision
    • Why time is the greatest investment families make—and the importance of knowing where it’s going
    • The value of shared calendars and shared expectations
    • How identifying the one thing to do this week can create meaningful momentum

    Key Questions Jason and Lauren Encourage Listeners to Ask:
    • Are we living reactively, or are we intentionally aiming at something?
    • Where is most of our time going—and does that reflect our priorities?
    • What kind of family culture are we building right now?
    • What is the one practical step that can be taken this week to move forward?

    Episode Takeaway:
    Jason and Lauren believe that success doesn’t happen accidentally—it’s the result of clarity, alignment, and intentional investment. This episode helps listeners reflect on where they’ve been, assess where they are, and take a meaningful step toward building a healthier, more connected 2026.

  • 137. Raising Sons into Men: The “Cop” Phase & Parenting Little Kids with Boundaries and Protrction
    Dec 3 2025

    This week’s episode is taken from the BraveCo podcast as the Vallotton’s believe the message is SO important for the Dates, Mates, & Babies audience too!

    From Jason on the BraveCo Podcast:

    THE BRAVECO RITE OF PASSAGE: https://www.braveco.org/riteofpassage
    As a pastor, counselor, and dad, I have watched so many young men stumble their way into manhood without a clear pathway. In this episode of the Brave Co Podcast, I break down the stages our sons move through and what it looks like to call them out of boyhood and into manhood with intention. From the “cop” phase with little kids, to mentoring teens, to coaching young men who are 18, 19, and 20 and still living at home, I share real stories from my own life and conversations I have with fathers all the time.

    I talk about how to shift from controlling your son’s every move to training him to make wise decisions, carry real responsibility, and discover his God-given purpose. You will hear how my dad prepared me for puberty, identity, and independence, why I had to start fighting my own battles, and how those milestones shaped me. Then I walk you through what to do when your son wants to stay at home as an adult, how to set clear expectations, and how to stop enabling him so he can grow into a man who produces more than he consumes.

    If you are a dad of a teenage or young adult son, this conversation will give you language, courage, and a practical roadmap. I also share why we created the BraveCo Rite of Passage, a 30-hour weekend where fathers and sons encounter God together, push their limits, and mark the moment a boy is called into manhood. Join us February 28 – March 1, 2026 in Jacksonville, Florida. Get all the details and grab your spot at braveco.org, and do not forget to subscribe, share this episode with another dad, and drop a comment with your biggest takeaway.
