Relationships affect our health for better or worse. And this includes our relationships with our kids.  If those relationships are strained in our home, then that increases our stress (which impacts all systems in the body) and relationships impact our mental health, too.  

I am currently experiencing the truth that navigating the teen years as a parent comes with some unique challenges. Some of you know exactly what I mean!  And that’s why I welcome Kirsten Cobabe on the podcast this week.  She is a seasoned teen and parent coach and we discuss the nuances of parenting teenagers in today's fast-paced world.  I’ve already been applying her tips on curiosity and awareness. And I loved her ideas on how to foster and maintain a strong emotional connection in the midst of inevitable challenges. There is such great wisdom in here guys, I’m excited for you to listen.
