Season 2 is here. And we’re starting with the truth: your teen pulling away doesn’t mean they don’t like you—it means they’re doing the messy work of becoming their own person. The way you lead during this stage determines whether they’ll come back close or keep running further away. In this episode, I share: Why adolescence feels like rejection but is really brain development in action. The three leadership shifts every mom needs to make if she wants teens who actually enjoy being around her. The rising trend of estrangement between parents and adult kids—and how to avoid becoming part of that statistic. Why respect, accountability, and steady leadership are the foundation of connection that lasts into adulthood. This isn’t about being the “cool mom” or the “strict mom.” It’s about becoming the kind of leader your teen trusts, respects, and yes—likes.
