If you’ve noticed your teen shutting down more and more during conversations, and every interaction feels like an uphill battle, this episode is for you.
We’re diving into 3 communication patterns that often come from love—but unknowingly push your teen further away. More importantly, I’ll show you how to shift those habits into connection points that help rebuild trust and invite real conversation again.
You’ll learn:
- Why trying to fix things too quickly can undermine your teen’s confidence
- How questions meant to “check in” can feel like interrogation
- The hidden cost of frequent correction—and what to say instead
A simple mindset shift that helps you become a safe place again
❤️ Your teen doesn’t need you to be perfect—they need you to stay present and anchored.
