33: How we (unintentionally) sabotage our teen's motivation and success
Welcome back to The Teenage Guide podcast!
Listen, I know you want the best for your teen. And, at the same time, sometimes even with the best intentions, we unintentionally sabotage their motivation and success.
In this powerful episode, I’m breaking down:
- Where you need to shift your focus (and it's not your mindset)
- The invisible (and unconscious) ways so many well-intentioned parents project fear and attempt to control teens thinking they're being helpful
- How small, conscious shifts in your approach can create big wins in your relationship and their ability to thrive. 🎯
I also share details coming off the heels of my LIVE 3-part workshop! If you haven't watched the replays they'll be up for a limited time, and they are amazing. What's inside is solid gold information that's helped countless parents have more peace, a better relationship with their teen, and know exactly how to boost their teen's confidence and self-drive.
