Are you a homeschooling parent struggling with how to support your teen through criticism or peer rejection? 

In today’s episode, I explore one of the toughest challenges we face—helping our teens navigate the emotional impact of criticism, whether it’s about homeschooling or difficulties fitting in with their peers. 

I share practical strategies on how you, as a parent, can be emotionally available for your teen during these challenging moments, and offer insights into how to guide them through the tough years of adolescence. 

You’ll also learn the difference between empathy and compassion, what it truly means to be emotionally present, and how to manage your own emotions when the situation feels overwhelming.

Tune in now to hear more about how you can empower your teen and support them through peer rejection and criticism.
