#31 Back to basics: why connecting with your kids matters more than ever (and 3 ways to make it happen)
Am I doing this right for my kids? What should I actually be focusing on? Which boundaries really matter?
The Adolescente series has opened the door to some incredibly important—and much-needed—conversations around parenting. It’s been powerful, eye-opening, and validating for so many of us. But at the same time, it’s also brought a whole lot of noise: a sense of urgency, scarcity, and confusion about how to move forward. Suddenly, there’s pressure to change everything, to do more, to get it all "right."
When you add the constant overflow of information to the fast pace of life—and that collective pressure to always be “busy”—it’s no wonder we feel stretched thin with everything that’s expected of us.
That’s why in this episode, I wanted to strip it all back and go straight to what really matters: connection.
We’re talking about why it’s at the heart of parenting—and how we can hold onto it, even when things feel messy or chaotic. I’ll also share three simple tools you can start using right away to reconnect with your kids in a way that feels real, doable, and pressure-free.
I think you will love it ❤️
