    May 19 2025
    This episode is a dive deep into the concept of mistaken goals in parenting teens, exploring how our kids' challenging behaviors are often rooted in unmet needs like attention, power, revenge, assumed inadequacy, and excitement-seeking. I break down each mistaken goal, sharing how parents can recognize the hidden messages behind their teen’s actions and respond with empathy, connection, and positive discipline. If you’re struggling with power struggles, risky behavior, or feeling disconnected, this series is for you. Listen now to gain practical strategies and fresh insights that will transform your relationship with your teen.

    Back again with a follow up replay - this episode was recorded the same week as my show with Dr. Bryson (the one revisited in eps 572). I loved the convo so much I was inspired to go deeper into trusting our teen’s development. This show goes into what is happening in the teen brain and how to work WITH our kids to promote relationship and autonomy over time. Enjoy!
