In this episode teen host, Nuri and I wanted to bring up the idea of “Staying Awake” to important issues our world faces.  It’s up to us to raise our awareness of our own biases and blind spots so we can be part of the solution and not the problem.

In this episode, my niece Brett and her boyfriend Sol, both talented artists, explore how love affects their art-making process and how their art connects them more deeply to themselves and one another.  Follow us on Instagram @MindfulNikki @nurielleauguste

Today’s Podcast has 2 very dear guests to me who I happen to know for quite some time.  They are teens, 17 & 15 yrs to be exact.  Our guests today are my daughters Zoe and Maya.  I know I am a bit biased, but I think you’ll see for yourself that these two provide an authentic expression of what many teens go through when experiencing FOMO, fear of missing out, and loneliness.  My hope is that in this convo they have with Nuri, that it normalizes this common experience for teens, and helps parents and those working with teens understand how this manifests. Ok, get ready, cause this is going to be really good.  Teen Host @nurielleaguste      Co-Host @MindfulNikki Join @MindfulNikki’s private FB group, “JustBE Mindful Community."

Teens are the most stressed out of any age group!  Did you know this?  My hope for this Podcast remains the same from its inception; to normalize what teens experience, and to create open-minded conversations that connect with teens, parents, teachers and all others who work with teens.  Nuri and I explore in this episode her experiences with parent pressure, and I add in my experiences with parent pressure growing up and how it shaped and informed how I parent now. Plus we go into root causes of what can make parents put unnecessary pressure on their kids. Stay till’ the end, as I guide you through a few minutes of JustBE-ing, leaving you feeling more aware and clear.  

JustBE Tip: Tap into your intuition by creating sacred moments that will allow you to hear, feel and know more deeply what is true for you.  Tune in today!
