ParenTween Connection Talks

Parenting teenagers can be a challenge, but it doesn’t have to be. Join Jennifer Boudrye, founder of Parent with C.A.R.E., for an enlightening and interactive workshop designed to equip you with the tools and strategies needed to foster a positive and supportive relationship with your teen.

In Part 1, you will discover: Understanding Identities: The differences between gender identity, gender expression, sexual identity, and sexual orientation, and how a child knows their own identity.

Social Media Insights: Learn how social media can be a supportive tool, rather than a cause for concern.

Crucial Conversations: The three things you need to say if your child comes out to you, and what not to say.

Navigating Coming Out: Understand the coming out process for both you and your child.

Future Prospects: How queer children can live full, joy-filled lives as spouses and parents with the appropriate support.

Jennifer’s approach combines years of experience with practical, easy-to-implement strategies that have transformed countless parent-teen relationships. Whether you're facing communication barriers or simply want to strengthen your bond, this workshop is for you.

Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from one of the best in the field. Mark your calendars for today, June 5 at 5:30 PM ET, and join us live on your preferred platform.

I work with perfectionistic Type A Moms who feel distracted, scattered, & overwhelmed. My clients are smart, capable women who struggle with feelings of overwhelm and getting things done - mostly because they have so much to do. Just like me. So I know how to help!

​

I've got extensive training in Solution-Focused Coaching and NeuroMeditation; a whole load of life experience as a mother, wife, creative soul, musician, career woman, and entrepreneur; plus a 30 year career as a health professional working with children & adults with developmental challenges. I'm also a biologist, naturalist, and animal lover. I loved my evolutionary biology, genetics, and neuroscience courses in my first (Zoology) degree, continue to enjoy time spent in nature and with animals, and have a deep appreciation for the mysteries of the universe. I also continue to love learning about and working with chakras, animal guides, and oracle cards. It's fair to say I have the mind of a scientist and the heart of a mystic.

​

So, as a Contemplative Practices Coach, you'll find I brew up an artful blend of science and "woo" to help my clients learn how to overcome overwhelm so they can focus on what matters, when it matters most.

​

People tell me I am a calming presence and my personal stories enliven discussions and serve up insights steeped in relevance and meaning. I also sing and play the Celtic harp. And I LOVE jazz, especially the music of Thelonious Monk.

About ParenT(w)een Connection

When friends of Joe & Clarissa Constantine were going through a REALLY tough patch with their then-15-year-old daughter, the mom said, 'I just wish I had other parents to talk to.' It was like a lightning bolt for Clarissa, and The ParenT(w)een Connection was born. We launched a Facebook group and within a few days had over 100 parents join - talk about proof of concept! We knew we had the potential to make a huge global impact and went to the drawing board to sketch out a vision. As it stands today, we have four unique but interwoven segments:

Trusted Expert Network: Think Angie's List, but specifically featuring professionals who support families with kids between the ages of 10 and 20. If you're a parent, browse the listings to find professionals who can support you. If you're a professional, join what will become the world's largest network geared toward connecting you with other professionals who support the same clients. https://www.parentweenconnection.com/trustedexperts

ParenT(w)een Village: Joining our Facebook group is a GREAT first step!

Local Communities: It's one thing to connect with other parents online; it's another to be able to get together in person and build even more supportive relationships. Our local communities & events will be managed by local professionals who are dedicated to cultivating relationships with parents & other professionals in their geographical area.

ParenT(w)een Foundation: It's one thing to say, 'Hey, look at all these awesome professionals who can help you & your family.'

Families today recognize that connection gaps between parents and teens often result in a lack of trust, misunderstandings, and little to no communication. The catch is, without trust, teens will shut down and not share.

When your child is struggling at school - or at home - it’s easy to see the challenges as theirs alone. But as parents we can rethink the way we see these hurdles.

We get a chance to look at our role as parents in a big-picture kind of way and reevaluate how we approach their challenges. Looking at our kids with different lenses (or reframes!) gives us a peek into what’s hiding underneath our kids’ challenges - and our reactions to them too.

Join us as we chat with Scotti Weintraub of Reframe Parenting as we chat about our identities and our kids, our perception of ourselves relative to our kids’ struggles, and more!

Teens in the season of choice-making post-graduation might look around and think that other people have life all figured out. Parents understand this is not always the case even among their own peers, but you want to help your teen navigate the pressure & anxiety they feel with confidence & clarity so they can make empowered decisions about their future instead of wasting time and money on a path that may not suit them.

In this conversation, we shine a light on some of the reasons that we don’t have it all figured out yet, how to start making sense of the choices and opportunities available, and how to level up regardless of whether you have it figured out or not. Most people are looking for the same sense of identity, purpose and belonging that our teens and young adults are. There are some simple steps you can take to begin experiencing your ideal self and future right now.
