Listen Later

"Send Ben a text"

In this podcast episode, we dive into the importance of building a strong connection with your teenager, even if they're not meeting your expectations.

We chat about how teenagers actually want their parents to connect with them, and how letting go of expectations and attachments to desired outcomes can actually help you connect better with your teen.

We also discuss the power of setting boundaries for yourself instead of trying to control your teen's behavior, expressing gratitude for your teen, empowering them, and focusing on shared values.

So, if you're looking to strengthen that bond with your teenager, this episode is definitely for you!
