49: Try Flipping the Lens | 2 Ways to Feel More Confident Parenting Teens

from Think New Thoughts · host Emily Ricks

Do you ever catch yourself obsessing over your teenager's choices, replaying conversations in your head, or worrying about what other people think of your parenting? Wherever your focus goes, your emotions tend to follow—and sometimes that focus is keeping you stuck. In this episode, you'll learn a simple mindset tool I call flipping the lens. I'll show you two practical ways to use it: one to help you feel more calm and confident when you're feeling insecure, and another to help you stop feeling powerless when someone else's choices aren't what you hoped they would be. Whether you're navigating parenting, marriage, work, church callings, or any other relationship, this simple shift in focus can help you show up with more confidence, peace, and purpose.   The kids are starting new grades and new extra-curriculars...what's on the docket for YOUR growth and learning? :)  You can go into a new grade too, with my 8-week private coaching program, designed to help Christian moms trade guilt and self-doubt for peace, confidence, and purpose.
