The go-to podcast for Christian moms who want deeper connection with their teens.
Are you tired of feeling dismissed every time your teen pulls out their phone mid-conversation?
Do conversations with your teen feel more like nagging sessions than real connection?
Is your teen shut down, distracted, or glued to a screen… while you’re desperate to build trust and keep your relationship strong?
I’m so excited you’re here!
This podcast will help you move from walking on eggshells to having real, trust-building conversations—without the nagging, misunderstandings or push-back.
My mission is to equip you to communicate with tools that replace frustration with understanding, turn tension into trust, and help you become the mom your teen feels safe opening up to.
Hi, I’m Terri Lee. A wife, mom, tutu, and communication coach. For years, I thought the key to raising my kids well was teaching the right lessons, taking them to church, and trying to fix their behavior. But instead of building connections it only led to frustration, distance, and feeling like my words didn’t matter.
I realized that to have deep, lasting connections—both now and after my kids left home—I needed to change how I communicated. So, I did. I learned to listen without criticism, speak in a way my kids felt safe, and build thriving relationships. Now, I help moms do the same, and I can’t wait to share it with you!
If you’re looking for practical ways to talk to your teen, build a relationship based on mutual respect, and get them off their phones long enough to connect—this show is for you.
Grab your latte and let’s dive into it.

42 | New Year, New Peace: How to Enter God's Rest and Still Build Connection
Are you tired of striving and longing to parent from peace—showing up present, grounded, and emotionally available for your teen?
“Shalom shalom, mom.”
As a Christian mom, the new year can bring pressure, worry, and a quiet fear of losing connection with your teen. But God’s promise in Isaiah 26:3 offers something different: perfect peace that doesn’t depend on your circumstances—or your teen changing.
In this episode of Connect With Your Teens, we explore the biblical meaning of shalom shalom and how God guards your mind and imagination when you stay anchored in Him. You’ll learn how resting in God’s peace supports faith-based parenting and helps you build connection with your teen from a place of calm instead of control.
You’ll also be invited to slow down and experience His peace together, allowing God to release the weight you’ve been carrying and realign your heart with His rest as you step into the new year.
On January 27, I’m hosting a free, live workshop where we’ll go deeper into how you can walk in and communicate in peace with your child. It’s called Connect With Your Teen: Build Trust in 10 Minutes a Day and Stop Walking on Eggshells. If your home has felt tense or disconnected, this could be your fresh start for the year. Registration opens soon—check the show notes for the link.
💛 Take a breath. Find a quiet moment.
Let’s step into the new year anchored in God’s perfect peace.
