We've all been there. You limit screen time, cook healthy meals, set boundaries... and your kid still finds garbage to watch, makes terrible choices, maybe even walks away from everything you've tried to teach them. So you throw your hands up and think: Why do I even bother? I get it. My oldest loves telling people they couldn't watch SpongeBob growing up because I didn't want them seeing parents portrayed as idiots. And guess what? They found trash media anyway. A lot of good that did me, right

Let’s be honest—most of us feel a little panicked when our teen says, “I’m bored.” It triggers something, right?

In this episode, I’m sharing why boredom is actually a gift—and how our discomfort with it says more about us than them. You’ll learn: The real reasons we try to keep our teens busy (spoiler: it’s not all about them) What chronic activity and distraction actually creates in your teen A

Ever think to yourself: “It’s too late.” “Why even bother?” “Nothing I do makes a difference.” You’re not alone—but you are believing a lie. In this episode, I’m breaking down one of the most heartbreaking ways I see good parents unintentionally give up: they fail ahead of time. Out of fear. Out of burnout. Out of guilt. Out of believing their situation won’t change. We’ll talk about how to recognize this quiet kind of surrender, why it happens to even the best parents, and the three mindset shifts

But if we’re not showing our kids what it looks like to stand up for truth and love people well (especially the hard ones), then we’re teaching them to stay silent. And silence is complicity. In this episode, I’m getting bold about the values we need to be modeling at home. From passive-aggressive parenting to political name-calling to the subtle ways we teach our teens to judge instead of
