🎙 Episode 12 – Summer Transitions: Guiding Your Teen with Calm & Confidence Summer break sounds dreamy—no early alarms, no lunch-packing chaos, no school pressure. But for many families, that sudden shift in structure can bring unexpected stress. Teens and young adults may seem unmotivated, disconnected, or emotionally on edge. And as a parent, it’s easy to feel confused or even helpless. In this episode of The FOCUS Podcast, we’re talking about what really happens beneath the surface during seasonal transitions—and how to respond with calm, compassion, and clarity. I’ll walk you through the emotional shifts your teen might be experiencing, and how you can guide them without micromanaging or creating more tension. Together, we’ll explore: ✅ Why the summer slowdown can trigger identity confusion and emotional dysregulation ✅ How to use the FOCUS Framework™ to anchor your parenting during unpredictable seasons ✅ The neuroscience behind motivation (and why “lazy” isn’t a helpful label) ✅ Mel Robbins’ 5-Second Rule as a powerful tool for stuck or discouraged young people ✅ What Brené Brown teaches us about connection through vulnerability and boundaries ✅ Real-life strategies you can start today—like screen-free sunset walks & journal prompt jars If you're craving a more connected, peaceful summer—and want to empower your teen or 20-something to navigate this season with confidence—this episode is for you. 🧡 Bonus Resource: 🔗 Free 30-min Connection Call – Learn more at PeacefulHeartJourney.com OR click here to schedule it today! 🎧 Subscribe and share with a friend who’s in the summer-with-teens trenches.
