Nearly a third of all teens will experience an anxiety disorder during their lifetime, according to the National Institute of Health. Is your teen one of them?
Guest Jill Freestone is an Anxiety & Emotional Resilience Coach who works with both parents and teens so they can manage their anxiety and come to view it as a strength instead of a weakness.
Jill reminds us that life coaching is not therapy. A life coach doesn’t diagnose, but they can work in conjunction with a doctor or licensed clinical counselor to help the client move forward and thrive.
Listen to the full episode to learn some strategies Jill uses with her clients to help them manage their anxiety and anger, which in turn also allows them to have better connection with family members.

Kami reminds us that parents will only get it right 40% of the time, and that relationships are built in the repairs.

After experiencing PTSD from a traumatic car accident, American Idol Alumni Katie Higley explains how she turned to music as a tool to help her overcome her challenges, develop resilience and find hope.
Katie shares her belief that, “The gift of music can overcome so many problems in our lives.” Her focus is in helping people to develop their own emotional freedom by having them create their own songs, or even singing songs that they have resonated with. Katie has recently created a ukulele hymnbook for beginners and coaches students in music with her iVibeAlive program with this goal in mind.
Katie feels that music contains the power of expression. “When we share that expression of whatever we have in our heart, there are some powerful connections that we can have with other people and with God. When we create our own songs, there is a magic that happens inside of us. Emotional freedom happens when we are free with our heart, and free with giving. When you experience emotions that are stagnant, they make you feel stuck.” Katie explains that you don’t have to create music for this concept to work. You can also listen to it.
Listen to the full episode to hear more about an interesting study Katie describes that shows the positive impact it has on people when they sing together in unison. She will also give you an insightful tip about how you can create a song with any scripture or affirmation. It’s something she has her students do, and it’s powerful!

In this episode, I’m discussing my passion for advocating that parents and church leaders help children and teens utilize resources and tools that may help them overcome many of the unique challenges they face today.
Today's youth face increased anxiety, addiction, depression, aggression from peers, eating disorders, pornography, overall loss of hope and so much more. There is so much that we can do to assist them.
Did you know that Captain Moroni in the Book of Mormon was also passionate about tools and resources? Yep! He called them provisions, and he demanded them, as he knew they were a key to the success of his army. Helaman also requested and utilized necessary provisions for the two thousand stripling warriors. This army of young men and boys was supplied provisions by their fathers well before the battles began. They were also sent the support of good people by way of additional men to assist and strengthen them as they fought the enemy.
Like the two thousand stripling warriors of old, our youth today are in need of armoring up with necessary provisions and being provided with the support of good people in addition to the shield of faith that is also discussed and usually solely focused on in this Book of Mormon story.
Listen to the full episode to learn how together, we can support, strengthen, and bandage up our valiant and strong youth, and reduce the stigma of doing so, as we cheer them along in their journey.
