38: Why Now is the Perfect Time to Reset Your Parenting

Wednesday, June 4, 2025 • Duration 17:27

Let's face it: summer isn't really much of a break for parents.

Unstructured time often equals more chaos

Teens often dysregulate in summer without rhythm.

And, you're dysregulated at the thought of them being dysregulated (aka you're snappy at the thought of them being moody)

In this episode:

✨ Destress and reset your parenting mindset.
✨ Redefine summer success for your family
✨ Embrace this season for growth and connection
✨ Focus on yourself first to positively influence your teen's behavior.

That's why it's important for you to know that now is the perfect time to hit the reset button, and when you do your whole summer will be better! Because 𝐬𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐢𝐬 𝐚𝐧 𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭𝐮𝐧𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐟 𝐢𝐧 𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞...𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐧𝐠.

36: [Time & Energy 3] Solution-Focused Boundaries that Motivate Teens

Wednesday, May 14, 2025 • Duration 13:47

To culminate this 3-part series on time and energy (and how to make the most of it!) I wanted to focus on an area that comes up a lot in my coaching practice with parents and my THRIVE membership parent group: boundaries that motivate our teens and lead to more connection, follow-through, and solutions to challenges.

End of school pressures, expectations, and deadlines can lead to teens breaking down, ignoring work, procrastinating, putting in minimal effort because it's just too much pressure...and you're left feeling exhausted and drained, while the clock is ticking!

If you can relate, listen in to learn:

Why verbal reminders alone are blocking your teen's motivation and self-drive (and draining your energy!)
Why boundaries are a gift of freedom
The #1 way you have control
