Summary
In this episode of Parent Coaches Unleashed, Carrie and Jessica dive into two heartfelt letters from real parents facing tough moments with their teens. One parent shares concerns about their 15-year-old daughter who has suddenly withdrawn from family life. Another writes about their son’s experience on a competitive sports team, where an assistant coach refused to hold another player accountable, leaving the parent feeling unheard and unsupported.
Carrie and Jessica unpack each situation with empathy and offer practical advice for navigating emotional distance, communication breakdowns, and the challenge of dealing with unhelpful adults in your teen’s world. Whether your teen is pulling away or you're struggling to advocate for them, this episode will leave you feeling less alone and more empowered.
