In this episode, communication professor, researcher and coach Dr. Stephanie Medden explores how parents and caregivers can help children, adolescents, and teens build stronger real-world communication skills in a screen-filled world.

Drawing on communication research and practical experience, she explains why communication is a skill that develops through practice, not just personality, and shares simple ways to help young people grow more confident speaking up, asking questions, navigating awkward moments, and connecting with others.
