from Connect With Your Teens | Conversation Starters, Parenting Tips, Screen Time, Build Connection, Communication Skills · host Terri Lee | Christian Parenting Coach, Communication Specialist, & B.A. Social Work

You’re doing everything you can to hold it all together… but underneath the schedules, conversations, responsibilities, and emotional weight of parenting teens… you still feel overwhelmed. And maybe what’s exhausting you isn’t just how much you’re carrying. Maybe it’s the disconnection stress and fear quietly create inside us. In this episode, Terri talks about the hidden emotional and spiritual roots of overwhelm, why moms often fall into survival mode, and how fear can slowly create separation in families without anyone realizing it. If you’ve been feeling emotionally tired, reactive, anxious, distant from peace, or like you’re constantly carrying the emotional weight of your family… this episode will help you pause, reconnect with God, and begin rebuilding connection from a place of peace instead of pressure. 💛 CONNECT WITH YOUR TEEN ROADMAP If you’re ready for deeper support learning how to build trust, emotional safety, and calm communication with your teen, Terri’s Connect With Your Teen Roadmap small group coaching program is open for enrollment now.
