  • Résumé

  • If your teen is sad, bored, heartbroken, or frustrated—and you instantly shift into problem-solving mode—this episode is for you.

    In today’s conversation, we’re talking about a trap so many loving parents fall into: believing it’s our job to keep our teens happy. Whether it’s emailing teachers, calling their friend’s mom after a disagreement, offering shopping trips to soothe a breakup, or trying to fix boredom with entertainment—many parents overfunction emotionally, thinking they’re being helpful. But here’s the truth: trying to manage your teen’s emotions not only burns you out, it also sends them the message that they can’t handle life on their own.

    You’ll learn:

    • Why your teen’s hard emotions aren’t a sign you’ve failed

    • How to stop rescuing and start strengthening their emotional resilience

    • The surprising way your love and guilt might be enabling helplessness

    • And how to hold space without trying to “make it better”

    ✨ Ready to parent with calm, clarity, and real connection—even when your teen is struggling? Book your free Peaceful Parenting Strategy Call here. You don’t have to do this alone—and your teen doesn’t need you to fix everything to thrive.
