"This episode first aired under the original name, The Parenting Reset Show. Now we are the Single Parenting Reset podcast–supporting single parents of tweens and teens with real talk on screen time, communication and managing behavior."

 Are you struggling to connect with your tween or teen—and wondering if there’s a better way to spend quality time beyond nagging about screen time?

In this episode, Tess Connolly LCSW sits down with Sarah and Rob Gardner, co-owners of the baby brand Joovy, to explore how intentional time in nature not only helped them reconnect as a family but also inspired their parenting and business decisions. Even if you're parenting solo, you'll discover how simple outdoor getaways can create powerful moments of bonding and communication.

• Learn how nature-based routines can replace power struggles over screens.
• Discover how to start meaningful, low-cost adventures—even if you have no camping experience.
• Hear real examples of how family road trips built deeper trust and stronger communication with their kids.

Press play to uncover how nature could be the key to resetting your parenting approach and reconnecting with your tween or teen today.
