"Send Ben a text"

Most parents secretly wish their teen would just change — listen more, argue less, clean up, do homework, be respectful, etc.

But here’s the truth:
 👉 You can’t change your teen.
👉 You can only change you.

In this episode, Ben and Cortni unpack one of the most powerful parenting principles of all time — “Be the change you want to see.”

You’ll learn:

  • Why trying to “fix” your teen backfires every time
  • How to stop giving away your power
  • The difference between victim and hero parenting
  • Why awareness always comes before choice
  • How real change happens from the roots up, not the fruit down 🍑

If you’ve ever felt frustrated, powerless, or stuck in a cycle of conflict with your teen… this episode will help you reclaim your peace, your power, and your purpose as a parent.

🎧 Listen now and start being the change you want to see.
