What you will learn during this interview…

Connecting with teens is notoriously difficult. When they’re immersed in their own world, preoccupied with their phone, or spending hours with friends or activities, trying to communicate with them can sometimes feel impossible. But with the right strategies, it is possible to create the attachment with your teen that’s so essential in order to positively influence their behavior. Join Lori Petro, parent educator and founder of TEACH through Love, to discover…

  • The ABC’s of conscious parenting, and how it can help you connect more effectively with your teen
  • Simple strategies you can use to ‘tune in’ to your teen and communicate more consciously
  • Why identifying triggers can stop arguments in their tracks…and how to figure out exactly what yours (and your teen’s) are!
  • The fundamental difference between what you mean to say and what your teen is actually hearing, and what you can say to help bridge this communication gap
