31: How to unlock more peace (and potential) with your teen by the end of school year

Wish your teen had the tools and confidence to reach their full potential?

Feeling the pressure of end-of-school year within sight?

Wish you could help them, but they're full of excuses, resistance, or they're shutting you out?

May is notoriously full for both parents and teens—projects, finals, deadlines, and sooo many to-do’s, and the above scenarios are common for so many parents and teens right about now! 

That's why I'm excited to bring you this week's episode.

Inside you’ll learn:

✨ What your teen's behavior is really telling you around this time

✨How to show up so they're more open to your guidance

✨A simple practice that automatically decreases stress and increases peace between you

If you like this episode and you want more support, don't miss my upcoming free, live 3-part workshop:

"Finish the School Year Strong, Confident, and Connected!"  

Inside this workshop you'll learn common mistakes even the most well-intentioned parents make when it comes to blocking their teen's confidence and motivation, and my simple 4-part framework that gets your teen to:

✅ listen to your guidance without backtalk

✅ build self-drive to do what they need to do and be the best the can be

✅ build trust and joy between you

all as simply and quickly as possible! 

This 3-part workshop is a MUST if you're:

• Tired of feeling like a nag with every bit of their excuses or resistance to you asking them to do something
• Exhausted from their procrastination with never-ending excuses, and worried they won't reach their full potential, but you don't know how to help
• Often walking on eggshells navigating their moods and excuses, leaving you wondering "Where did I go wrong?" 
• Wanting a different experience than you had, and/or you're being proactive
