3 Ways to Avoid a Power Struggle with your Teens

Join me in this episode where I talk to Emily Christensen about how to take the shame out of pornography discussions with our kids and teach it alongside healthy sexuality. It's a game changer!

To connect with Emily:

She absolutely welcomes any DM's or emails with questions. Reach out to her on IG @emilychristensencoaching or email her at [email protected]

I loved talking to Emma and hearing her perspective about what it's like to be a single adult member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She is helping bridge the gap often felt between the younger and older generations. You will love her energy and spirit.

Emma is a young professional who loves being in a business world and surrounded by entrepreneurs. She has a degree in Psychology and education in Behavioral Health, Trauma, Life-Coaching, and Neuro-Linguistic Programming. Emma is the owner of several businesses and Queen of the Hustle. As an event director, public speaker, writer, life coach, podcast host, etc, she has spent hundreds of hours hearing, writing about, and giving voice to the stories and messages of countless women and other female entrepreneurs. Much of her time is spent in one-on-one professional and personal development coaching sessions with clients, helping them create personal strategies to thrive, whether it's through a start-up, tune-up, and rebrand of a self-owned business or simply through difficult stages of life and trauma. Though she loves the personal connections found in one-on-one coaching sessions, public speaking is her passion. She has taught numerous self-improvement classes and her favorite presentation setting is a classroom or a stage. When she's not speaking, teaching, or coaching, Emma is a singer and a pianist, and she does both as often as she can.

Understanding your emotions is essential for you to be able to control them. The goal is not to avoid feeling negative emotions, the goal is to know what to do with them.
