BE INTENTIONAL WITH THE PEOPLE YOU LOVE THE MOST

In this episode of Relatable Parenting, Josh and Priscilla get honest about the struggle to be fully present with the people who matter most—especially as a busy couple raising two kids in fast-paced, expensive California. From screen time habits to family rhythms, they unpack what’s working, what’s not, and how they’re learning to live slower, on purpose.

You’ll hear about how they use weekly check-ins, Google Calendars, and “The Brick” to minimize distractions, and how growing up in different family cultures shaped how they parent today.

If you’ve ever felt like the people you love are getting your leftovers, this episode will challenge and encourage you to reset your priorities and rethink what intentional love really looks like.
