Gone are the days of potty training & playdates. Now you lie in bed at night, your mind flooded with thoughts of:
Refusing to shower, staying up past midnight, crash dieting, bulking, bouts of anxiety or depression, substance use... How's a parent to know what's normal – and what's not?
Hormonal, underslept, and overwhelmed are words that definitely apply to teens, and also sometimes to their midlife parents! How can we navigate all these emotional waves without crashing into one another?
Friendship drama. Dating. Dicey group texts. Intense gaming chats. It's clear they need our guidance, but how do we do it without pitting ourselves against their peers or their passions?
As their parent, we want them to be happy and resilient.
To have good, positive friends that surround them.
To have passions they feel connected to.
To take ownership of their successes, and to learn from their mistakes.
To know what opportunities to say yes to, and
to have the strength of character to say NO
to the ideas, people, and substances that will hurt them.
It can be a bumpy road, but it's a lot smoother when you've got a trusty roadmap.
introducing

For years now, parents have been asking me to teach this "older kid" version of my ORIGINAL MENTORSHIP PROGRAM, but I refused.
WHY?
Because I absolutely HATE getting advice from people who haven't truly been through something, and there was no way I was going to give you "precious" advice that had no bearing in reality. I knew that no matter how much I knew about younger kids – and I know A LOT – I had the good sense that teenagerhood would be a whole new ballgame.
BUT NOW...
Now when they have big feelings, you'll know how to help them choose growth, get themselves out of tight corners, and practice positive life skills. This will increase your trust in them, as well as their trust in you.
Instead of being afraid of their world and feeling like an outsider, you'll have a much more intimate understanding of what they're going through, which will help you feel less worried and more connected.
Teenagerhood shakes our parental confidence because the tools we used when they were younger no longer work. By the end of this course, you'll have a whole new set of tools that work wonders for who they are NOW.
"I have downloaded some CRITICAL tips for moving on to the next stage of my parenting."
- J.B.
"My relationship with my tween has shifted to a more collaborative one. The profoundly helpful "how to's", deep dives and resources give me confidence for all that will arise."
- C.M.
"We'd gone from a 14 yo star student to a struggling 17yo dealing with all the really big teenage issues, it was scary. Teen TTP came at just the right time, and has been really healing. She feels more like herself, and she's on the right trajectory now."

Perks that Parents Love
No. I teach you how to work directly with your tween/teen. I also teach you how to leverage other people in your life who can help you reach them in the moments they just won't hear it from you. That way your teen is surrounded by concentric circles of love and support.
Do you work directly with my tween/teen?
03
Absolutely. If YOU want to include your co-parent in the experience, then I want to include your co-parent too! Even if you have wildly different ideas about how to parent your teen, I will happily work with each of you to build a system that works for all.
Can my partner do the course with me?

Adolescence can begin as early as 9, or as late as 14. it continues until age 19, and our children's brains won't fully mature until age 25 or so. The sweet spot for the course is usually when your kids are between 12-17 years old. That said every family is different, so the best marker of whether you're ready is how much 'teen energy" and "teen topics" are happening in your home.
How do I know if my kid's too young, or too old for me to be taking this class?

Is it ok to need help this late in the parenting game?

How do I know if the course schedule will work for me?

I will let this podcast episode of mine answer that one for you. ❤️
