Really grateful I came across episode 31! I need it right now and although I’m already doing most of what Heidi shared I can do much better and I plan to share this with my husband in hopes that it will help his connection with our son. Thank you, Heidi!
Heidi is a phenomenal speaker and woman. Learning from her is nothing short of amazing and hearing her guidance is so very helpful in showing up best for my family!
I found this podcast at just the right time! I have a 12 year old and have been feeling a lot lately like I am not doing this right. Feeling like I don’t know how to parent a tween, and losing my connection I have had until now. Your podcast shows me that I am not alone in feeling this way. I feel more confident now that I have the tools to continue being a great mom! Thank you so much!
Heidi is very knowledgeable and an effective commentator. It's about time we focus on raising teen boys!
