There is a lot of advice out there for new parents on how to parent babies, toddlers, and young children, but what about when those children grow up?

Parenting teenagers and young adults brings a whole new set of rewards and challenges and requires different skills, but it’s not something that’s talked about quite so openly. We’re changing that in this episode. 

Samantha Straub is here to help you master your role as a parent to teens and young adults while also adjusting to midlife. She’s sharing everything you need to know about teen brain development, emotional regulation, and attachment styles and teaching you communication skills and other tools for your parenting toolkit. 

At Teen Savvy Coaching, Samantha Straub helps parents of teens and tweens step into their parenting role with calm and confidence.

Topics covered in this episode include:

• The difference between the teen brain and the adult brain
• Why you might find it harder to control your emotions around your kids
• How to get grounded as a midlife parent 

If you’ve been struggling with feeling like it’s a constant battle between you and your teen, we’ve got you! Tune in for some much-needed support.
