    EP. 63: Three Practices That Give You (& Your Teen) Your Time and Energy Back We talk a lot about relationships and skills — the two things that can help you solve almost any challenge with your teen. But underneath both of those is something more foundational. Your daily rhythm. The practices you fold into your routine from the moment you wake up — through the day, the evening, and into the next morning — that determine how regulated, present, and resourced you actually are when life demands th

    Back-to-School Stress With Teens: What to Focus on Instead of Grades Back-to-school season has a way of bringing everything to the surface. The schedules. The lunches. The homework. The missing assignments. The conversations about motivation. And underneath all of that, the quiet questions so many parents are carrying: Will this year be different? How do I help without constantly nagging? Why does it feel like I’m losing influence with my teen? And what am I actually supposed to focus on? In thi

    EP. 59: Real Parents, Real Teens, & The Formula That Changes Everything What actually changes when you stop trying to fix the behavior you can see…and start paying attention to what’s happening underneath it? In this episode, I’m taking you inside the experiences of two real families I’ve worked with—because sometimes the best way to understand this work is to see what it looks like in real life. One family came to me with a teenage daughter who was struggling deeply with friendship dynamics. Sh
