RAISING HER CONFIDENTLY | Connecting with Teens, Parenting Styles, Family Communication, Raising Teen Daughters

Do you want to have open communication with your teen daughter? Do you find yourself up late at night constantly thinking about how to talk to your teen or why she’s not opening up to you? Do you wake up with confident intentions only to feel confused and frustrated when you get 1-word answers from your daughter or instead of the deep conversations you hoped to have, you end up in a yelling match? Hi, I’m Jeannie. I think back to when I was 13. I was that teenage girl you are googling about! Rebellious, hard to figure out, “hard-headed” as my mom would call me. She even said, “I don’t even know who you are anymore!” Several years later, I too found myself raising young teens. I too felt grieved by the loss of my sweet talkative little girl! I wanted her to come to me about anything even if she was scared and listen to my advice. My passion for healthy families as a former educator, a homeschooling family for several years, and a zeal to impact young teen girls has led me to train in the Coach Model and partner with moms like you and guide them to create safe, healthy relationships with their teens. In this podcast, I share tools and resources to help improve communication with your teen girl and strengthen your relationship with her. I’m providing you ways to talk to your teen through relationship-building exercises to make intentional connections, establish boundaries to create that safe space, and build a trust-worthy community of healthy friends and influence to confidently get you through this season of raising a teen girl. So grab that oat milk latte and let’s raise her confidently together!

what’s normal when it comes to our teen daughters—and when do we need to be genuinely concerned?
Because let’s be real… this stage comes with a lot of changes—emotional ups and downs, shifting friendships, maybe even slamming doors. And if you’re anything like me, you’ve wondered: Is this just a normal teenage thing? Or is it something deeper I need to address?
So today, I’m going to share five normal things your daughter is going through that often concern moms, and then we’ll talk about when those same things cross the line into concerning territory.

Hey mom friends, welcome back to the podcast! If you’re here, I know you’re raising a tween or teen daughter who sometimes leaves you scratching your head, wondering… why on earth does she blame me for everything? From not being allowed to go to that sleepover, to not having the “right” shoes, or even her hair not doing what she wants it to do—somehow, mom is the scapegoat.
Today, we’re going to talk about why our daughters tend to pin it all on us, and I’ll give you one powerful secret that shifts the blame game into responsibility—establishing family core values.
 
Are you looking for a supportive mom community?
The common thing I ask the moms I work with to be most valuable is having a community with other moms who get it.  Who are in the weeds too.  Moms who are also in the season of raising tween & teen girls.  We need each other to vent, laugh, encourage and support on another. 
If that’s you too, I have a free mom community I invite you to be a part of.  You can join going to www.raisingherconfidently.com

Maybe you’ve noticed that she seems guarded. Or maybe you feel like you can’t say anything without her shutting down or firing back. What used to be an easy connection feels like it’s constantly under tension. And the biggest culprit? Judgment. She feels judged by you, and if we’re honest, you might feel judged by her too.
Today we’re going to unpack how to build a relationship with your teenage daughter without judgment. I’ll walk you through why this shift in your relationship is happening, and then I’ll give you three mindset shifts that will help you stay connected without pushing her away.
