Recorded this as I sit at an outdoor café after happily driving my daughter and her friends to a concert (and uploaded to publish 5 minutes later).

How saying yes to these moments quietly builds trust. If you've ever wrestled with the compliment (or with what "good mom" even means), this one's for you.

Also, would love you to join me inside the free Trusted Lab to learn simple shifts that get your teen talking again (before it expires Thursday!)

If you listen to this after that date, you can registerfor the next one.
