This time Madeleine talks with Kirstin Barchia, an expert in the art of Calm Connection. They discuss the causes of stress in teenagers, reveal how stereotypical 'teen behaviour' is often the symptom and not the disease, and most importantly how finding your own calm as a parent is the key first step towards meaningful connection with your teen.

Drawing on her insight into how childhood today differs from the past, Kirstin shares practical advice that works in the real world of parenting.
