Today we’re talking all things family and parenting. While neither of us have kids, we’ve brought in some experts to chat with us, and we’re also addressing what family looks like even when you aren’t married or don’t have kids. We’re big fans of Josh and Christi and hope that today’s episode is helpful as you navigate life in this season!
About Dr. Josh + Christi:
Joshua Straub, Ph.D. is a husband, dad, and recovering human. By trade, Josh is a speaker, author, and family and leadership coach. A champion of human empathy, Josh leads Famous at Home, a company equipping leaders, organizations, military families, and churches in emotional intelligence and family wellness. Josh also is a Fellow of the Townsend Institute for Leadership and Counseling. As a marriage and family coach and consultant with The Straub Co. and professor of child psychology / crisis response, Josh coaches leaders to be famous at home so they can thrive on their stage. He also speaks regularly for Joint Special Operations Command and serves military families across the country.
Josh is author/ coauthor of four books including Safe House: How Emotional Safety is the Key to Raising Kids Who Live, Love, and Lead Well and coauthor, along with his wife Christi, of their first children’s book called, What Am I Feeling?. He and Christi also host the In This Together podcast, and in partnership with Lifeway Christian Resources, are the creators of TwentyTwoSix Parenting, a community of parents growing together to encourage the spiritual growth of their kids.
Most of all, Josh loves spending time with his wife, Christi, on the lake in their 1974 Crestliner, training their disobedient puppy, and watching their kids crush karaoke on a stage built in their dining room.
Christi Straub, M.A., M.B.A. is a native Canadian, wife to an American, and momma to two feisty kiddos. She is a marriage and family coach and leads The Straub Co., an organization where she and her husband Josh coach families to live, love, and lead well. Christi is a Fellow of the Townsend Institute for Leadership and Counseling. Her honesty, wittiness and transparency are contagious. She is co-host of the In This Together podcast and is coauthor of the children’s book, What Am I Feeling? (2019). She and Josh also coauthored a Bible study for families called Homegrown: Cultivating Kids in the Fruit of the Spirit.
When she and Josh aren’t working together, they spend time on the lake in their 1974 Crestliner, train their disobedient puppy, and watch their kids crush karaoke on a stage built in their dining room.
