Hey there, my mama friend!

So far I've brought you solo shows about dealing with your toddler and school-age child. I've interviewed other moms on parenting-related topics such as dating as a single mom, dealing with tricky emotions, managing ADHD in your child, and much more.

On today's show I'm sharing some tips on creating stronger connections with your teen and adult children, based on my experience in raising two adult boys and a teen daughter thus far in my life.

If you want to have a great relationship with your older children, it starts with creating healthy boundaries within your family and household.

When our children become teens and adults, the relationship starts resembling the toddler years again sometimes. The kids want to test their boundaries but still have a safe place to fall. They want their own space, but they want to know we're there for guidance and support. They have to fall down, make mistakes, and learn from natural consequences.

Join me as I dive deeper into 10 Ways to Build Strong Connections with Your Teen and Adult Children through Healthy Boundaries – on your side and theirs.

Hey there, my mama friend!

As a homeschool mom myself, I am so excited to introduce you to my special guest today, who has helped tens of thousands of moms learn to not only balance working outside the home with schooling their children, but also find joy and peace in the process.

Jen Mackinnon is a mom of two from Nova Scotia who homeschooled her children for fourteen years. When her oldest was around five, Jen found herself needing to go back to work for financial reasons, but her kids were thriving in their homeschooling and Jen didn't want to interrupt that momentum.

Jen decided to create some resources to help her navigate the journey of balancing her work and facilitating her kids' schooling. She started blogging about her adventures and began sharing those resources with other moms. This effort soon turned into a Facebook group that has since grown to over 22,000 members to date!

In this episode, Jen talks about some of the ups and downs of her journey as a working homeschool mom and shares several resources to help other moms. 

Whether you're a stay-at-home mom who is looking into homeschooling your kids, a mom who's been homeschooling for years but is feeling overwhelmed or needs a new strategy, or a working mom who wants to keep the homeschooling process going, you will find some golden nuggets in this episode.
