What Gen Z Teens Wish Their Parents Understood About Pressure
You didn’t waste your degree.
You didn’t fail your kid.
And you’re not behind.
You just bought into someone else’s definition of success.
This episode? It’ll help you rewrite it.
What if your major doesn't match your job? What if your career doesn’t look like your resume? What if being a great parent isn't about getting it right — but about listening right?
In this episode of Mental, Nick sits down with Laura Ollinger, a teen and parent well-being coach who helps both sides of the dinner table breathe, reset, and finally hear each other again. She’s got four teens of her own (yes, FOUR), so she’s not guessing.
You’ll hear:
The difference between goals and pressures
Why expectations can either build trust… or break connection
What fear of failure is really about (and how to face it)
How to be present without trying to fix everything
This one’s for every teen who’s ever been misunderstood… and every parent who’s trying.
