More than anything, this episode is a thank you to you for listening, sharing, laughing, crying, and healing alongside us.

Parenting a teen feels like trying to read a book in a language you've never learned. They shut down, lash out, or avoid you altogether and it can leave you frustrated, hurt, and second-guessing everything. In this episode, we share a story about a friend of mine who thought her son had an "attitude problem" but discovered there was so much more going on beneath the surface. We break down why behavior is rarely the root problem, and understand what's really happening in their world. Get ready to change the way you interpret your teen's behavior and learn how to build a stronger relationship.   Highlights Why your teen's attitude is rarely about you. How to avoid reacting in the moment and start responding with intention. What happens when you stop fixing and start listening. Why repairing after conflict matters more than preventing it.

Ever had a day so chaotic that you forgot who you were outside of being a mom? In this episode, Suzanne shares a story about a jam-packed day full of school registrations, doctor appointments, and teen moods, and how she learned to show up as both a mom and a woman. We break down the difference between surviving the day versus living it, and how simple resets (even five minutes!) help you feel like yourself again. This is your reminder that motherhood and womanhood can coexist and that joy doesn't have to wait for the calendar to clear.

We lose so much time and energy trying to guarantee a specific result. In this episode, we break down how our obsession with "doing it right" or "getting it just so" is really about chasing control we never had to begin with. Jenn shares how overplanning emails and rewriting boundary texts became a daily ritual to avoid conflict. Suzanne also opens up about the anxiety that used to follow her into carpool lines and parenting decisions. Get ready to let go of certainty and take your time, energy, and peace back.   Highlights Why your need for certainty might be creating more anxiety.

What happens when your old motivation system suddenly stops getting results? Suzanne shares how building Sparked Mom forced her to confront her old fear-based strategies, why external pressure used to work, and how healing made her outgrow the need for it. Jenn breaks down how healing journeys, parenting, and entrepreneurship all mirror the same truth. We also unpack how redefining "progress" and success is essential for both healing and entrepreneurship.

Most parents say they'd die for their kids, but would you heal for them? In this episode, we dive into one of the most common parenting statements and why it's often used as a shield to avoid deeper change. We reflect on our own 1.0 versions, the hard conversations that sparked growth, and the healing work that's helped us create more connection, joy, and emotional safety in our homes. Remember, loving your kids starts with doing the work on yourself. Get ready to give your kids something even better than protection.   Highlights Why saying "I'd die for my kids" can become a dangerous excuse.

Do you ever find yourself overplanning a "perfect" family day only to end up frustrated and disconnected? In this episode, we talk about how planning became our way of controlling joy instead of experiencing it. I open up about how my urge to "make it special" led to stress, disconnection, and missed opportunities for real connection. We break down the pattern behind overplanning, the fantasy that fuels it, and how giving up can finally bring you home to your kids. Get ready to let go of the joy pressure and find the magic in what's already here.   Highlights How overplanning blocks connection and increases stress. The fantasy of the "perfect experience" and how it backfires. What shifted when I asked, "What would make you happy?". What happened when I followed my son's lead instead of my itinerary.

If someone filmed the way you talk to your kids… would you be proud of it? In this episode, we talk about how old patterns, perfectionism, and emotional overload show up in parenting. We dive into the way we sometimes act like a fool at home, yelling, snapping, or getting sarcastic when we'd never behave that way with another adult. We also share stories about parenting teens and tweens, how they've learned to hit "rewind" after a meltdown, and what it really looks like to model emotional regulation. Get ready to rethink your reactions and start parenting with presence, not perfection.   Highlights Why we talk to our kids in ways we'd never talk to other adults. How "redo" and "rewind" conversations build emotional safety. What I learned when my son said "You don't let me be angry". Why your kids deserve the same respect and repair as your peers. The danger of thinking "I'm the adult, they're the kid". A single question to ask yourself when you're about to lose it.   Resources + Links Watch the podcast on YouTube   Follow Us Jenn Shaw Jones - Jennerational Healing Founder of Jennerational Healing and a Teen Communication & Identity Coach for Moms.

Have you ever caught yourself criticizing someone you love, only to realize it's not helping, it's actually pushing them away? In this episode, I share a story with my son where my silent frustration turned into curiosity instead of correction. We talk about how easy it is to slip into fixer mode, why judgment rarely creates change, and how switching from "What's wrong with you?" to "What's going on for you?" shifts everything. Get ready to heal your inner critic and start showing up with connection.   Highlights Why your "help" might not feel helpful to the other person. Why "What's wrong with you?" shuts people down. How to pause and stay curious when you're about to criticize. What helped me stay regulated when I wanted to fix everything. A reframe for parenting and partnership when things don't go as planned.   Resources + Links Watch the podcast on YouTube   Follow Us Jenn Shaw Jones - Jennerational Healing Founder of Jennerational Healing and a Teen Communication & Identity Coach for Moms.

Ever feel like you're loving your people hard, but they're not feeling it? In this episode, we talk about the difference between loving someone and actually connecting with them. I share a story when I realized my husband and kids didn't always feel my love, even though I was giving it the way I would want it.  We talk about what happens when love languages don't match, how resentment quietly builds, and why "just guess" doesn't work. Get ready to learn how to show up for the people you love most.   Highlights Why I was loving hard, but they weren't feeling it. Why assuming people feel your love can create silent disconnect. The 2 questions that helped me feel seen and helped them feel loved. What happens when you finally love someone their way.

What happens when the way you raise your kids doesn't look anything like the way you were raised? In this episode, we talk about the emotional complexity of parenting differently, especially when it comes to boundaries, family dynamics, and generational expectations.

On the outside, my life looked perfect—a successful law career, a happy family, a beautiful home. But inside? I was BROKEN. In this episode, we talk about what happens when you lose yourself in motherhood, achievements, and the pressure to keep it all together (and how to find your way back to yourself). We reveal the truth about burnout and depression, the weight of pretending everything's fine, and the silent shame that keeps so many women stuck. Just remember: It's never too late to find those little sparks that light you up again!   Highlights What no one tells you about hitting every milestone but still feeling empty.

Is being around your kids the same as being connected to them? In this episode, we talk about our childhood and what was missing in our mother-daughter experience. We unpack how proximity, obligation, and appearances often get mistaken for connection, and what it takes to heal the cycle for future generations. Jenn opens up about how becoming a mom to a daughter reignited a mission to break generational patterns and create a legacy built off of connection, and Suzanne shares the hidden ways achievement-based parenting shows up.

What's the difference between supporting your partner and taking over their life? In this episode, we talk about the blurry line between care and control in long-term relationships, especially when it comes to our partner's health. I share my experience with my husband's chronic illness, the weight of feeling responsible for everything, and the fear that made me over-function in the name of love. We also share stories from friends in different situations, and how all of them point to the same truth: If we don't stop to check in, caregiving can quietly become a survival strategy.   Highlights How caregiving can become a coping mechanism.

Are you helping your kids… or protecting yourself from discomfort? In this episode, we talk about the hard and humbling truth of letting our kids fail, why perfectionism often hides behind "good parenting," and what happens when you finally take your hands off the wheel.

Can something as simple as a snuggle actually count as being productive? In this episode, we talk about what it means to really connect with our kids and not just manage their lives. I share how I used to view productivity as logistics and to-dos, and what changed when I started seeing snuggles, slow car rides, and silly game nights as powerful moments of connection. We also talk about the trap of thinking being with our kids means we're connected to them and how redefining what counts as "productive" can shift everything. Get ready to rethink what counts as productive and start seeing connection!   Highlights How productivity becomes a shield in motherhood. Why I used to measure motherhood with to-do lists.

You can have the house, the kids, the "good life"… and still feel like you're disappearing inside it. In this episode, we talk about the identity loss in motherhood, the quiet resentment that builds, and the cultural normalization of wine as the "fix" for mom stress. I open up about the moment I realized wine wasn't just for fun anymore, and what happened when I got honest about why I really poured the glass. This isn't about the wine. It's about what we've been taught to swallow and what it takes to finally feel again.   Highlights Why saying "I'm fine" can become a dangerous habit. The truth about "mom wine culture" and emotional escape. How identity loss in motherhood doesn't happen all at once. The quiet shame of numbing and the courage to stop.

Ever felt like you disappeared inside the role of "mom"? In this episode, we talk about losing ourselves in motherhood, shrinking under the weight of invisible expectations, and the shame, depression, and ugliness that often hide. I open up about the silent identity loss that crept in over the years and how a forgotten spark of joy helped me remember who I was. We also talk about why "supermom" is a harmful myth, the guilt that shows up even when you have "everything", and how finding yourself again doesn't require an overhaul.   Highlights How identity loss often shows up silently in motherhood. Why even a good life can still leave you feeling disconnected. How tiny sparks of joy helped me feel like ME again. The shame spiral no one talks about. What it really means to be "alive" again.   Resources + Links Watch the podcast on YouTube   Follow Us Jenn Shaw Jones - Jennerational Healing Founder of Jennerational Healing and a Teen Communication & Identity Coach for Moms.

"I'm not a birthday person"—That's what I always told myself until a launch party and a milestone birthday made me question where that story came from. In this episode, we talk about the survival patterns that made visibility feel unsafe, starting from the childhood moments that shaped our "I am" identities. We share what it means to finally let yourself be celebrated, including helpful questions to reframe old limiting beliefs and set yourself on a path to self-love and healing. Get ready to start showing up as the version of you who knows she's worth it.   Highlights Why "I'm not a birthday person" was never really about birthdays.

Everyone always says "set a boundary," but no one talks about what happens after. In this episode, I open up about the emotional spiral that followed a decision to step back from a school volunteer role. We dive into why setting boundaries doesn't always feel good at first, how to hold your ground without over-explaining, and why freedom and guilt can (and do) coexist. Remember, just because it's uncomfortable doesn't mean it's wrong.   Highlights Why even "easy" boundaries can bring big feelings. Why I almost backed out of my own boundary. How to separate real responsibility from assumed obligation. What it looks like to reset expectations without spiraling. How to prepare for the emotional fallout after saying no. How to set a limit without falling into victim mode.   Resources + Links Watch the podcast on YouTube   Follow Us Jenn Shaw Jones - Jennerational Healing Founder of Jennerational Healing and a Teen Communication & Identity Coach for Moms.
