LAUNCH: Parenting Tips for Raising Adult Children & Building Better Relationships
If you’re a parent of a young adult, are these questions keeping you up at night;
How can I become the best parent to my kids? How can I improve my communication with them? How can we connect better? How can I help them to become more confident, resilient and independent? What can I do to motivate them? Why don't they respect me? Why don't they want to hang out with me?
If you're searching for these answers, this podcast is for you. I'm Shari Jonas and this is LAUNCH. Where I offer honest, no BS parenting tips that will help you to raise your adult child with confidence (regardless of whether they're living with you or on their own) and become the best parent you can be.
I address the most relevant, challenging and deeply personal issues that parents are facing with their young adults. Each episode offers real-life stories, research-based strategies, and no BS advice that will help you to become the parent that your adult child ALWAYS turns to, someone they love to spend time and, someone who will guide them to becoming confident, resilient, independent and capable of thriving in the world.
Join me each week as I tell it like it is. No sugar coating. Real talk. Let's face it, parenting can be hard work, especially because we're figuring it out every day. We're learning as we go, and we can always be better. I hope to inspire you, give you the confidence you need to connect with them, and to educate you when you need a little guidance. Sometimes I have amazing guests, other times, it's just me; a Mom of 2 grown kids, who practically raised my children alone. As an educator, author and parenting consultant, I know what it takes to build incredible relationships, while guiding them through life's challenges, and I want to share it all with you.

For Parents who are wondering why their Teens and Young Adults are struggling with time management, organization, motivation, emotional regulation, planning, procrastinating, managing their responsibilities, and so much more - this interview with a licenced Psychologist reveals what you never knew about ADHD.
If you're like me, I used to think ADHD only happened in children, mostly hyperactive little boys. But you'll be shocked to discover what it is and that anyone, at any age, can have it.
My special guest today is Jodi Zentner, a licenced Psychologist who specializes in ADHD. Listen in as we talk about the signs of ADHD, how ADHD impacts their brain, how to get a diagnosis, and what you can do to support them. Once your teen or young adult is treated, their lives can change dramatically.
