When someone asks you how you're doing, what do you usually say?
Fine? Good?
It's easier right, then explaining how we are actually feeling.
If it's true for us, it's true for our teenagers. In this episode I go over why we do this in some detail and how to encourage an open space for our teenagers to share what's really going on for them. There are some connection builders in here for sure. You don't want to miss this and Happy New Year!
