If you joined us for Part 1, you know how powerful and emotional this dialogue has been. In this episode, Vivian Glick and Lisa go even deeper, giving us not just her story but step-by-step guidance on how to create safety, connection, and resilience with our kids and within ourselves. We discuss what emotional safety actually looks like, how to ask your child the one question that can transform your relationship, and the necessary step of lovingly letting go so our kids can grow into who they are meant to be, not who we need them to be. If you've ever thought, "Am I doing this right?" this episode is for you.Key Takeaways• The first step in achieving a life vision is helping teens identify their current feelings and finding their "dot"—recognizing they are not a carbon copy version of anyone else.• Safe space agreements are essential for grounding the family and allowing everyone to feel seen, heard, and honored.• Parents must have the courage to ask their child to rate their relationship on a scale of 1 to 10 and then listen to the response.• When receiving the relationship rating, the parent must hold their emotion in (no crying or anger) to ensure the child feels safe giving an honest answer.• For struggling mothers dealing with identity issues or low self-confidence, programs that focus on filling your cup first and serving from your overflow are critical.• Action is what's going to move you; focus on small, palatable, bite-sized moves.Timestamps [00:00] Welcome to Part 2: Creating Safety, Connection, and Resilience [02:00] Finding the "Dot": Helping Teens Identify Who They Are and What They Want [05:00] Why Rituals and Safe Space Agreements Are Essential in the Age of Technology [08:00] The Physical Visual: Distinguishing The Real Self from The Oil and The Mask [12:00] The Critical Relationship Question: Rating Your Connection (1 to 10) [16:00] How to Focus Your Energy: What Would Take It From a 7 to a 10?
