Exercise is medicine for our body and soul, but what if it's the secret ingredient you've been missing in your family? A communication tool that fosters trust, emotional regulation, and lifelong bonding. Exercise is an unexpected but powerful way to build connection with your teen through movement.
Whether you're walking side by side, cheering from the sidelines, or swapping stories about your workouts over dinner, shared fitness experiences can become an emotional bridge in the often-complicated world of parenting teens.
You’ll learn why co-exercising (or even just talking about it) can help teens open up, why modeling movement matters during menopause and midlife, and how to talk about fitness in a way that supports self-esteem and avoids body shame.
If you’ve ever struggled to connect with your teen - or wondered how to prioritize your own health without guilt - this episode is for you. Tune in to reframe fitness as more than a habit. It’s a heart-centered strategy for growing stronger - together.
