#10 Raising Girls, Hormones And All The Fun That Goes With It with Lindsay Randerson

Wet Wipes And Wine

Remember the moment your sweet child's voice cracked for the first time, or when eye rolls became their second language? That's right, we're tackling the tumultuous terrain of teen parenting with executive health coach and consummate parent Lindsay Randerson. Our banter spans the gamut from deciphering mood swings to merging old-school parenting with new-age dilemmas, all while keeping our health and humor intact. Pour a glass of patience (or wine) and get ready for a session of laughter-laced wisdom that might just see you through those door-slamming days.
Lindsay and I don't shy away from the sticky subjects: the tightrope walk of giving freedom versus setting boundaries, and the moments when our own childhoods echo loudly in our parenting choices. We share stories of when to let our kids stumble, and the life skills that are as essential as they are empowering. Whether it's navigating morning chaos or confronting the darker corners of adolescence, we reaffirm that it's a journey of growth—for our teens and us.
As we wrap up, we cozy into the concept of self-care, a lifeline for any parent knee-deep in the teen years. Lindsay and I discuss how carving out time for ourselves isn't just a luxury, it's a necessity that teaches our kids to value their own mental health. So join us as we hold onto that metaphoric rope, offering steadfast support to our children while remembering to secure our own oxygen masks first. After all, a parent who breathes is a parent who can handle anything—even teenagers.
