ResponseABLE Parenting

In this episode I have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Cam Caswell, PhD, Dr. Cam is a nationally recognized adolescent psychologist, parent coach, TEDx speaker, podcast host, and founder of the Parenting Teens Academy. Affectionately known as "The Teen Translator," Dr. Cam helps frustrated but hopeful parents turn power struggles into connection and chaos into calm—without yelling, shaming, or giving up on their teen.

With over 20 years of experience and a doctorate in Developmental Psychology, Dr. Cam has supported thousands of families through shutdowns, attitude, anxiety, and emotional blowups. Her practical, science-backed tools have been featured on NPR, FOX, Newsweek, and Grown & Flown. As a single mom to a teen herself, she brings both clinical expertise and personal insight to every conversation—along with humor, heart, and zero judgment.

Through her Parenting Teens Academy, her popular podcast, and a highly engaged Instagram community of 347K+ parents, Dr. Cam teaches what most parenting experts don't: how to translate behavior instead of just manage it. I'm so excited to share this conversation with you.

Does it feel like you're always taking 1 step forward and 2 steps back? Maybe 2 steps is generous and it feels more like 50 steps back. This is that feeling where you've "tried everything" and nothing seems to make any difference.

In this week's podcast episode I share how we took a pretty big step backwards and how I am using my 8 step process to re-evaluate and get back on track even stronger than before.

These moments can derail us, but when we have a process to work from, we can eliminate a lot of the emotional burden and actually make meaningful progress.

I know the number one rule of fight club is to not talk about fight club…but this whole episode is about fight club :)

I share some really important mental shifts that I've taken from that class and added a parenting twist to it. I hope that you find the insights valuable and you can start to see these moments as puzzles vs. infractions.

In this episode I have a beautiful conversation with Jenny Robinson Clark, mom of four and wife to Travis Clark, the frontman of We The Kings.

Her new children's book, Are You Here? officially launches on March 17th and offers itself as a gentle entryway to conversation with kids about what happens when a loved one passes, how to find connection in the day to day, and the signs that show us love all around. As a creative homeschool mom of four in Nashville, Jenny builds curiosity and emotional awareness into her family's routine, encouraging children to explore how feelings and connection truly work.

Alongside her new book, Travis collaborated on the companion song "Are You Here."

In this episode I share several systems we've implemented in our home. I share what's working really well, as well as how I'm refining and tweaking a really solid idea, but making sure it fits my ADHD kiddo.

So often we want to tackle ALL the behaviors at once, and that's just not possible. With that in mind, I'm sharing this one tweak and sharing how it's working for us :)

It feels impossible to know what to do as an American mother in the early months of 2026. Nothing about this is normal. Nothing.

I do not claim to be an expert on politics. I acknowledge that as a white woman, I've inherited a level of privilege that many have not. And I do not pretend to know all the levels deep and the immense complexities others are facing on a daily basis.

And, this is a moment in history that will affect every single person.

In this episode I share my views on how to support yourself so you can support your children. How you can harness your emotions and take action in alignment with your values.

My hope is that this conversation provides helpful steps to take so you are not feeling like you're stuck on the spin cycle of headlines and chaos. My hope is that you don't feel like you're floating alone in all that is unfolding.
