124: How to Raise Grown-Ups (with Lynnette Sheppard)

Wouldn’t we all love a parenting handbook that tells us how to teach our children to succeed in life?! Mom of 5, Lynnette Sheppard, is that parenting handbook in human form and she joined us for a conversation about a few key things parents can do to help prepare their children for life after they leave the nest. Lynnette discusses struggles that both parents and their tweens and teenagers encounter when facing the transition from living at home to being out on their own and outlines some steps to take to teach our children to be self-sufficient, resilient, and balanced. After listening to this episode you’ll feel empowered to help guide your teen through these transitory times while coming from a place of love and support.
