Can you relate to any of these?
✔️ You feel like you're on constant alert; scanning to see if your child feels okay and everything is going okay in their lives.
✔️ If something goes wrong in your kids life, you feel like it's your job to fix it.
✔️ You worry that your teens anxiety, anger, or withdrawal means something is seriously wrong.
✔️ If your child or partner is anxious or upset, it seems contagious! You feel anxious or upset too.
✔️ You feel hurt when they push you away but aren't sure how to reconnect without making it worse or being a nag.
✔️ You fear you've already messed up and feel alone. Assuming other families must be handling this better.
If you identify with one (or all) of these, then you are a perfect fit for this workshop. Parenting preteens, teens, and college aged kids is different than parenting our littles. Learn the foundations so you can raise less anxious, more confident kids. Extra bonus: Your house will have less chaos and more calm.

What changes when you learn about the fundamental differences in raising teens and having connected relationships with our young adult children?
Everything!
✔️ You feel lighter because when your kid or partner has a problem, it no longer feels like your problem.
✔️ You feel less resentment and irritation when people don't do what you told them to do.
✔️ You spend less time worrying what others think of you.
✔️ You have better relationships because you're not doing the emotional work for them.
✔️ If your child or partner is anxious or upset, you empathize with them but don't feel the heaviness of their emotion yourself.
Sound good?
I hope so!
This is a reassuring, practical workshop for parents who want less arguing, less anxiety, and more confidence at home.
The preteen and teen years can leave even the most thoughtful parents wondering if they are doing something wrong. If you feel like conversations turn into arguments, your child seems more reactive or distant, or you are walking on eggshells trying to keep the peace, you are not alone.
In this session, parenting coach Susie Pettit, MEd, will help you understand what is developmentally normal in the preteen and teen years and how to respond in ways that build connection instead of conflict. You will learn clear roles for parents and teens, how to stay calm when emotions run high, and practical tools that work in real life with real teens.
You will leave feeling reassured, equipped, and more confident in your parenting.
What to bring: Open mind, notebook and pen
This is a free program. We appreciate your commitment to attending once booked.

About Susie Pettit
Susie Pettit has been helping women live lives they love for over 25 years. She is the founder of the Love Your Life School and the host of the top 1% globally ranked podcast the Love Your Life Show. She is a certified Parent, Life + Wellness Coach and a mom of 5 sons ages 21-27.
Susie is passionate about about helping families just like yours have houses that feel as good on the inside as they look on the oustide (or on Facebook photos 🤪!)
She has yelled at her kids. She has cried herself to sleep thinking she's failed as a mom that day. AND...she was trained as a parent educator, coach and had her masters in Education.
She realized there was a massive gap in education where we as parents think we need to parent our teens just like our littles but harder. Neglecting to realize that as their bodies are changing with puberty, so are their brains and their needs from their parents.
Susie went to work to research and practice IRL to figure out what really works to raise competent, confident humans.
Please join Susie in this workshop. She has the breadth of experience to teach first hand how to parent from a place of confidence and calm so that we raise (and launch) resilient, confident preteens and teens.
These are the final years they're in our house. They don't have to feel so hard.🩷
