Moms, do you ever walk away from a conversation with your teen feeling like they just don’t respect you? Maybe it’s the eye rolls, the sarcasm, or the silence that leaves you hurt and wondering if things will ever change.
Here’s the surprising truth: most of the time, these conflicts aren’t really about respect at all. They’re about something deeper—something that can shift the entire dynamic once you understand it.
In this episode, I’ll share a simple but powerful process I call the Listen Capture Feedback Loop—three steps that will help you foster mutual respect, rebuild connection, and open the door for your teen to actually listen in return.
If you’ve ever thought, “They don’t hear me, and I don’t know how to reach them,” this episode will give you fresh hope and practical tools to start turning things around.
