Pat Divilly is a teacher, wellness coach, podcast host, breathwork facilitator, and the author of the national best-selling book Fit Mind. With over 15 years of experience in the wellness industry, Pat's journey began in the physical fitness space before evolving into a deep exploration of mental, emotional, and relational wellness.Driven by a passion for growth, healing, and connection, his mission is to create a more authentic and connected world—one where we all live with compassion, playfulness, and curiosity.Today, Pat leads transformative programs for men's health, offers corporate wellness workshops, and runs a six-month Breathwork Facilitator Training called Journey – The Breath. He also provides coaching, breathwork, and body-based therapies to help clients heal through past trauma, develop confidence, and reconnect with their authentic selves.As a speaker, author, and podcaster, Pat shares his insights and knowledge in digestible ways to make wellness resources accessible to anyone on a path of self-discovery and healing.At the core of Pat's work, as I see it, is the belief that it's our privilege to embrace all parts of ourselves—both our light and our shadow. In today's conversation, we'll dive into one of the most essential aspects of his work: the shadow, in anticipation of the release of his upcoming book „Shadow Work“.In my own journey, I first encountered the concept of the shadow several years ago, a term popularized in Western culture by the renowned psychotherapist Carl Jung – and in our conversation today, Pat and I explore the origins of the shadow, how it's formed, and how we can bring awareness to it.We discuss:The unconscious behaviors and protective strategies we may be playing out, how to work with them, and how this awareness can transform how we relate to ourselves and others.How the shadow shows up in romantic relationshipsCommon emotions we often push into the shadow, such as shame, grief, and anger.We tackle the ever-present inner critic, which is so common for many men, and discuss how we can relate to it in a healthier way to live more freely and authentically.At the heart of this episode is the importance of shining light on the aspects of ourselves that are hidden and may be unconsciously dictating our lives—bringing them into awareness, and learning to be in right relationship with them.As I see it, this conversation serves as a masterclass on the shadow—understanding what it is, how we encounter it, and how we can integrate those disowned aspects of ourselves into our daily lives.This is a conversation you won't want to miss, and it's been an absolute pleasure for me to co-create with my new friend, Pat...—Connect with Pat DivillyWebsite: https://www.patdivilly.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/patdivillyRead Pat's Book "Fit Mind: 8 Weeks to Change Your Inner Soundtrack and Tune into Your Greatness": https://www.amazon.com/Fit-Mind-Change-Soundtrack-Greatness-ebook/dp/B09NFCM6BW?ref_=ast_author_dpPre-order Pat's upcoming Book "Shadow Work: A Practical Guide to Embracing your Shadow Side, Tackling Shame and Transforming Pain into Power: https://www.easons.com/shadow-work-pat-divilly-9781804581889?srsltid=AfmBOormQXHdyd4B31H3RnkQpYhIUJf197PmckeOViXSmU2-SWIWueiM&fbclid=PAY2xjawIWONFleHRuA2FlbQIxMAABpmTso9NEREyKF6j7LaX-OhGK2LsZHQnAw200GQzmc6dJ26rQW0-u9ME2KA_aem_hhbTp1_xARsLKz1fITOyHQ—Connect with Alex Lehmann:Website: https://www.alexlehmann.co/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/alexlehmann_Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@HeartofManPodcast/featuredListen to this conversation on Apple Podcasts and leave a review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/heart-of-man/id1697289478Email: alexlehmanncoaching@gmail.comInterested in working with me 1:1?

Casey O'Roarty is a positive discipline Trainer and Parent Coach. She hosts the popular parenting podcast, “Joyful Courage”. For the last 20 years, Casey has worked with families as an educator and coach to broaden perspectives on parenthood, behavior and relationships between parents and children. In this episode, Casey offers advice on how you can improve your relationship with your moody teenager and she reminds parents that we really have the power to influence a better relationship with our teen. Key Takeaways A little bit about Casey and her work. What are some common mistakes parents make when raising teens? Parents often make the mistake that they can explain the world to their children and help them prevent common mistakes from happening. Teens need to experience the mistakes themselves. Our teenagers don't care about the laundry, and they don't necessarily remember what it was like to be a ‘cute kid' that used to cuddle up to mom. As a parent, we influence the dynamic with our own teen. What does positive discipline mean? Be careful shutting down an idea your teen might have. It could kill their spirit or make them not want to bring their ideas to you in the future. How can you help your teen open up? We often minimize or forget the experiences our teens are having. We've been through so much and this is their first time experiencing ‘life'. What happens when your teen ‘disrespects' you? How do you handle it? Casey is an excellent problem solver, but that's not always what her teen needs. So that's why she asks first before giving advice. Just because you've been a teenager once doesn't mean you know what they're experiencing. You help your teen grow by standing beside them rather than trying to protect them. How do you navigate the conversation around college? Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education Resources Besproutable.com/teens/ Casey on LinkedIn Casey on Instagram Quotes: “We look at our kid's behavior and we immediately believe we're doing something wrong, and that's not always true.” “Being more experienced doesn't mean we actually know better.” “Our relationships with our partner, with our friends, aren't perfect either. We have our opinions and our judgements, and the relationship we have for each teen is also going to be different.”
Alena Cirello uses a person-centered approach in helping her clients get the breakthroughs they're seeking. As a Certified Hypnotherapist and the Owner of Center for Self-Healing Arts, Alena creates unique strategies for her clients to self-actualize their future. In this episode, Alena breaks some common myths about hypnosis and explains how it can really help you and your teen tap into achieving your goals. Key Takeaways A little bit about Alena and her background in hypnotherapy. There are so many misconceptions about hypnotherapy. What is it exactly? Alena can't ‘break into your mind' and manipulate you into robbing a bank. Alena helps people with their mind and body connection. How can hypnosis help teens and parents? Hypnosis is not a quick fix. Hypnosis is a supportive tool to treatment. How does hypnosis work? Alena breaks down her process. Alena helps relieve a bit of stress going on in her teen client's lives. Alena believes in a collaborative approach. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education Resources Selfhealingarts.net Alena on LinkedIn Quotes: “I cannot give you suggestions that are not within your belief system. I cannot force any beliefs on you.” “Hypnosis increases the mind and body connection. It helps you feel the mind and body connection.” “Hypnosis only works if you have an open mind. We tend to think hypnosis is like a quick fix.”

Melinda Shofner has been a high school counselor for the past 20 years and specializes in College and Career Counseling. She helps students make the best decision possible in their college of choice, what a good fit really means, and she also helps students prepare for transitioning from life at home to college. In this episode, Melinda talks about scholarships, the implications of student loans, and additional resources students can tap into. Key Takeaways There's so much anxiety around choosing the right college for your teen. Picking the right college is like teaching your child how to drive. How many colleges should you be applying to? What happens if your teen gets accepted into a college you can't afford? Is your teen considering taking out student loans? Sit down with them to do the numbers. Melinda believes it's important to look at school retention rates. How many of these young students are dropping out, and why? What makes a good entrance essay? There are so many changes happening during the first year of college that many students do not realize or are not prepared for it all. It's important to have that conversation early with them. Melinda shares how you can set the right college expectations for your teen. How can young adults and parents get scholarships? How do merit-based scholarships work? What types of resources can parents and students tap into? Resources Email Melinda: Melinda.D.Shofner@gmail.com Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education Quotes: “Their dream school is going to be tough when it comes to admission cost. When there's a $10,000 difference in between schools, that's actually a $40,000 difference over the four years.” “Your teen is going to be a young adult. They're going to be need to own their credit and make plans for living on their own.” “So often the message is that college is “the best time of your life”, and when it's not, you think it's you. We have to be really honest with our teen that it's not perfect all the time.”
Dr. John B. Molidor, CEO & President of the Brain Based Leadership Institute, works with people to better understand how their brains work. He guides his clients towards using their brains more efficiently and to help them make better decisions. In this episode, he explains why it can be so frustrating working with your teen as they begin to enter adulthood. Your brain doesn't fully form until you're 25 years old, so it's important for parents to practice a bit of grace when your child makes illogical mistakes. Key Takeaways Why do teenagers do some of the most ridiculous things sometimes? Chances are that teenagers don't really have a good reason for some of the actions they do. Their brain is not fully formed. We're asking our teenagers to grow up faster than what their brains will allow. Brains don't fully form until about 25 years old, however our teenagers can start driving at 16. How can we get our teens to follow simple directions? It's not always them being defiant! How can parents help their teens better develop a healthy brain? The brain is the only thing in our bodies that can change and get rewired. Let's talk about the importance of sleep for your teen. Parents also need to follow by example and practice good sleep hygiene. You can teach an old dog new tricks! The brain is always learning. What routine should you have after you've learned something new? Why is hydration so important? The brain is made up of water! Dr. Molidor offers additional resources if you'd like to learn more about the brain! The brain and the body really needs sunshine. Even if you live in a gloomy place, make an effort to get out and be in the sun. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education Resources Dr. Molidor on LinkedIn Matt Walker's books Brain Rules by John Medina Seven And A Half Lessons About The Brain by Lisa Feldman Barrett Quotes: “Let them nap during the day instead of having them sleep till 1pm. Sleep consistency is important.” “The beauty of some of this is by saying to your teenager, ‘You need to do this', you start to examine your own biases and things that have been ingrained in you and then you can ask, ‘Is this true?'” “You can't teach an old dog new tricks? That's wrong. You can teach an old dog new tricks.”

Coach Jim Johnson has over 30 years of experience developing winning high-school basketball teams, including 428 career victories. One of Jim's career highlights was working with an autistic boy named Jason McElwain, nicknamed J-Mac, who scored 20 points in the game's last 3 minutes. Jim leans on his extensive experience and shares the power of leadership, coaching others, and getting teams to think bigger in this week's episode. Key Takeaways A little bit about Jim and his story with Jason, a boy with autism. Jim learned as a coach that if you really want to get the most out of your team, you have to be a better listener. Jim shares why senior nights are so dear to his heart. How many times do people stop after one failed attempt? Jim is so proud that Jason led by example and had the courage to keep going. Good leadership is when you can shine a light on someone else! One of the things you can control is your attitude. Jim reminds his teens of this constantly. Focus on what you can control. Remember, attitudes are contagious! Before, you were lucky to get one media reporter at a high school game, but Jason's story attracted a lot of media attention. If you want to make your dreams come true, the best way to do that is to make other people's dreams come true. Jim explains his coaching style and why it's important to always respect the individual player, even if you disagree. What are some of the hallmarks of a good leader? When you first build trust, great results come after that! Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness!

That's what it's all about and the team did it that night with Jason.” “If we are going to be as good as we possibly can be, we need to be outstanding in the things we can control.”

What mistakes do parents make when trying to build a deeper bond with their teenager? Despite wanting more connection and going out and creating fun memories, teenagers just seem to want to play video games all the time? Jason offers advice on how to overcome this. How do you find the balance between being a parent vs. just being their friend? If you don't have time now, you're really not going to have time later when they're out of the home. Now is the time to build these memories with your children. Life is not about what happens to us, it's about how we adapt to the challenges. Our goal as parents is to teach children how to persevere. When is it time to go to a counselor or have your teen go see one? Jason is worried that with the pandemic and technology, children will not know how to interact with each other when they come back to social settings. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education Resources Adventurelore.org Quotes: “Every parent wants to have a strong connection with their teenager, and yet it's one of the most challenging and frustrating things for parents to be able to do.” “A good parent is a friend of the child as well. It's a huge factor. Being able to play with your kids and have fun with your kids is critically important.” “We teach kids how to persevere. Things aren't always as easy, but we have to learn how to adapt.”

Christy loves helping parents experience more love, joy, and connection in their families with The Heartfelt Parent Coaching Programs. In this episode. Christy talks about how to talk about consent with your children. She covers everything your teen could say if they face rejection to setting healthy boundaries with others on what they're ready and not ready to do. Unfortunately, with the internet, if parents aren't having these conversations, our teens will find an unhealthy version of it elsewhere. Key Takeaways How do we teach our children about consent? What is the definition of consent? If your teen doesn't feel comfortable asking for consent, then they should not be doing it. What can your teen do when they experience rejection? On the other side of this, how can you teach your child to safely say no? How do we help build the confidence in our children to say no? Currently pornography makes up for 1/3rd of all sites and searches on the internet. All of our teens will see pornography by the time they hit college. If we don't have the conversation at home, our children will be learning about it on the internet. What parental filtering systems should parents use? You shouldn't just have ‘a conversation' and forget about it. You have to have many small 1-5 minute conversations about what's healthy and what's not in adult relationships. According to a Harvard study, children want to hear more from you! Remember, it's better to start now than to never start. What happens when your teen just refuses to have conversations?

Harriet Turk has spent the last two decades in education and business. In the education sector, Harriet developed and implemented multi-million dollar programs for local and state level educational systems as the Youth Programs Coordinator for the Mississippi Governor's Office of Highway Safety. In this episode, Harriet shares how to build a deeper connection with your teen, even when it feels like they ‘never talk'! Key Takeaways The teen years are a very confusing time. They need a parental figure to connect with them. How do you listen to your teen when they're refusing to talk or share about their lives? You can't set a scheduled time to talk to your teen. You really have to work on their timeline. As parents, we want our children to come to where you are. You want them to hang out when you're cooking, or doing something in the living room, but the best place for connection is by going to their room and where they are. Look at your child's rooms, what are they interested in right now? Can you start a dialogue with them about it? Harriet has a Spotify family account and she can see what her son is listening to at the time and can connect with him that way. Instead of asking, ‘why', ask ‘what makes you feel that way'. It helps open up the dialogue much more effectively. Remember to be careful about what you say about your ex-spouse when you're with your children. You can't control the behaviors; you can only control your thoughts. What do you do when you get stuck with your teen? Consider writing a letter to your teen to help express your feelings in a healthy way. If you get frustrated or angry, remember to apologize and to also explain why you might have gotten overprotective. How do you help build your child's self-esteem up?

Christa D'Amico, CAGS, NCSP, is a NH Licensed School Psychologist who works at Winnacunnet High School in Hampton, NH. Ms. D'Amico partners with families, teachers, school administrators, and other professionals to create a safe, healthy, and supportive learning environment that strengthens connections between home, school, and the community. Ms. D'Amico understands that parents want to help their teens and help them with their problems, but that might not always be the best approach. In this episode, Christa shares tips and advice on how parents can teach their children to be more resilient and self-aware when they're managing times of high stress. Key Takeaways How does safety and relationships play a key part in managing a teen's feeling of being overwhelmed? Teens get stuck in the emotional side of their brain. Adults are typically able to move out of this area more effectively. It's our job as parents and teachers to help teens feel safe. We shouldn't underestimate the impacts COVID and isolation has had on our children. The three ways to help your teen with overwhelm is: Help them feel safe, make sure they feel heard, and notice their distress. As parents we want to protect our child no matter what, but there's a fine balance on how to best do this. When having tough conversations, remember to talk less and listen more. Try not to fix anything. Just listen to understand. How do we help our teen become more self-aware? Some children struggle with regulating their emotions. It's important to identify this early on and be attuned to their needs. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness!

Dr. Marlene Bizub, Psy.D., has been working in the court system for the last 23 years and has seen couples go through it all; including using their children to hurt the other parent. What can you do to prevent a situation like this if you're separating from your partner or if your child is currently spending their time in separate households? Dr. Marlene has some timeless advice on how to act in the best interest of your children. Key Takeaways What do teens really need when their parents live in separate households? What are some common mistakes parents make with their teen? Don't vent your partnership problems to your child! You could unintentionally be using your teen as a therapist. This puts a huge burden on their shoulders. What can you share with your teen? Remember, your teen isn't an adult yet developmentally. You need to give positive reinforcements that this is not their fault. Don't use your child as the messenger. Please avoid litigating parenting time. The decision about what to do with the kids does not need to be made by the court. It's so difficult to navigate this parenting space when living in different households. Don't make it more difficult than it needs to be. Your lawyers aren't there for the best interests of your children, they're there to protect you! Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness!

Jessica Weissbuch is the founder of Brave Trails, a summer camp for LGBTQ youth to build self-esteem, leadership skills, and life-long friends. She is a licensed marriage and family therapist and focused her academic life on studying LGBTQ+ youth affirmative therapy practices. In this week's episode, Jessica talks about how parents can be an LGBTQ ally even if your child is out or not. She also discusses ways to bring the conversation to your household so that there is acceptance and love for who your child is, and for who they may love. Key Takeaways How do you position yourself as an ally for the LGBTQ community? If your child is out, how do you build a deeper connection with them? Asking your child if they have a [opposite gender] relationship can make them feel uncomfortable. Maybe they're just not attracted to the opposite sex yet. Get yourself a positive LGBTQ therapist. Don't be afraid to interview a couple of them to get the right one! Isolation is a big thing you want to avoid. And to avoid that, you have to do research and make sure the people around your child are supportive and understanding. How do you find the right LGBTQ resources? Look for inspiring LGBTQ role models. These are people who are walking their walk and speaking their truth. How do you create a safe space for your child to come out or be able to express their attractions? Sometimes when a child comes out, it is such a shock because they're so ‘stereotypically' female or male. Parents do have a support group to better understand and show up for their LGBTQ child! Jessica shares a little bit about Camp Brave Trails and why it's been such a positive place for youth. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness!

Kerry Stutzman is a Family Therapist and Parenting Instructor passionate about teen suicide prevention. The numbers in teen suicides are rising and it's frightening to feel so helpless as a parent! What can parents do to better support their teen's mental health journey? Kerry has some tips on how to reduce internal teen conflict within your household and be supportive of your teen's development. Key Takeaways Kerry was heartbroken when she looked at teen suicide rates. When there's intense parental conflict, the risk of suicide increases. Kerry understands parents don't want to have intense conflict with their teens. They often are just scared. Teen suicide went up 58% from 2017 to 2019 in Colorado, where Kerry is from. In the US as a whole, it went up 25% over the last three years. Youth suicide has a big ripple effect. It's not only devastating families, but it's impacting their friends and communities as well. What can parents do about this? What do teens wish their parents knew at this time? Teens want to be heard, but parents are so focused on talking more than listening. The trick about talking less and listening more is that sometimes kids just don't talk. Some teens feel like they can't go to their parents when they've made a mistake. With no one to talk to, it burdens them. Practicing grace and patience goes a long way when trying to educate and talk to your child. Kerry used a physical trick by placing a weighted pad on her lap to keep herself grounded. How do you have a closer relationship with your child? How do you show them you care? Developmentally, your child needs to reject you. As a parent, it's your job to not reject them. Want to know more about Kerry's survey? Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness!

Coach Sheri Gazitt is the Founder of Teen Wise and Mom Wise. She is an advocate of teen mental wellness and helps parents navigate the ups and downs of adolescence. In this week's episode, Sheri talks about how to not get suckered into peer pressure as a parent. It's easy to compare your child's progress with other children in your community, but that extra stress can really affect the critical developmental years of your child! Key Takeaways There is such a thing as parent peer pressure. What are your parenting values? Sheri believes every parent should be compassionate and should have it as one of their values. It's easy to compare your child's progress with other children. The parent journey is always going to be different. What we are feeling and experiencing also gets passed down to our children. How do you stay true to your values when you're around competitive parents? Nobody puts their parenting struggles on Facebook. How do you listen to your own intuition as a parent and not get swayed by friends and family? Remember, there is no one size fits all to parenting. You're doing the best that you can. We make mistakes. Let's just learn from them. People aren't perfect, but when you love and care for each other, you work together to make things right. When you're parenting out of fear, you're parenting from a very primal place and that's not healthy. Forget what college your child is going to. Instead, foster an environment of positive learning. Sheri shares the difference between expectations vs. values. At the end of the day, your children have to find their own path in life. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness!

Chucky Rosa is a non-profit Public Speaker and an Advocate against drug and alcohol abuse. Chucky works with teens, families, and individuals struggling with substance abuse and has shared his personal story with thousands, which has inspired them to live a drug free life. On this week's episode, Chucky talks about how to spot the early signs of substance abuse, what to do as a parent, and why thinking it's ‘not a big deal' is a mistake. Key Takeaways Chucky shares his story on how he lost two children, and almost a third, to substance abuse. Addition is a fist fight you can win everyday. It is something you can overcome and win. Everyone thinks they can handle their drug or alcohol addiction…. until it starts to handle them. Chucky talks about when he first found out his children were experimenting with drugs. Chucky lost his first son and it broke his heart, nine months later, he lost his second son to drugs. Education is key when it comes to drug addiction and awareness. You don't just teach math during the first or second grade and stop. You teach it all the way through school. The same applies to substance abuse. Teens need to be regularly educated. What should a parent do when they find out their son or daughter has been drinking or doing drugs? Chucky believes it's important to be proactive and help them find a replacement activity that is healthier. Whether that be a cooking class or sports. If you drink or smoke weed, then you are a product of your own environment and you are showing your children what is acceptable. Chucky had his bouts with drinking and knows he didn't set the best example for his sons. He lives with that guilt. If you're blessed to be near an ocean, take advantage of it. It's very healing. Chucky is adamant about getting your kids to do new hobbies and activities that will help focus them on longer-term goals. Chucky talks about his non-profit charity and how he's helping teens better themselves. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education Resources Chuckysfight.com Quotes: “I talk about accountability and owning your choices. For students, I encourage them to understand that addiction is a choice that they make everyday.” “I think education is key. My sons were uneducated, and I was uneducated. If I knew it wasn't a phase, maybe I would have done something different.” “Alcohol abuse is not a problem until it becomes a problem. If you don't try to help manage it, it will manage them.”
Laura Stack's 19-year-old son, Johnny, died by suicide on November 20, 2019 from paranoid delusion from using high-THC marijuana concentrates. Soon afterward, Laura started a 501c3, Johnny's Ambassadors, to educate parents and teens about the dangers of today's high-THC marijuana on adolescent brain development, mental illness, and suicide. In this session, Laura will share the story of Johnny's marijuana addiction from a parent's point of view, a poignant chronicle of the shocking descent from innocence to eventual suicide. Before marijuana, Johnny was a computer whiz with a 4.0 GPA and a perfect math score on the SAT. After marijuana, he stole his family dog from the home and threatened to kill it without payment from his mother. With moving candor, Laura traces the first warning signs, their attempts at rehabilitation, her desperation, and his eventual demise. Three days before his death, Johnny issued his own warning about marijuana usage. Through this tragic, transparent tale, Stack hopes to use her pain to help parents talk to their children about the dangers of today's marijuana. Key Takeaways About Laura and how she lost her son to suicide. If it can happen to Laura's happy family, it can happen to anyone. Laura believes if marijuana wasn't around, she'd still have her son. When Laura first found out about Johnny's drug use, what did she do? Why is marijuana so addicting? Isn't it safe for use? Laura talks about the difference between marijuana and alcohol. Laura wants to stress that this is not the same drug we used when we were kids in the 70s or 80s. There's a new breed of strong and more addictive weed out there. How do you deter your children from using drugs? You have to teach your children boundary-setting skills. Laura thinks it's important to set clear boundaries in the household and to not be afraid to drug test your children. Marijuana is harmless? Think again. As a parent, you must speak up against this false messaging. What are some of the behavioral changes you should be on the lookout for? Marijuana is destroying teen's futures. It is making permanent changes to their brains. We have to protect our children in the end. Sponsored by Stand Up for Your Greatness! Edgerety.com/education Resources Johnnysambassadors.org Quotes: “Everything we did, we still couldn't keep him from using the marijuana and sadly, he took his life at 19 years old. You just look at this and you think, how can this happen?” “We didn't understand how potent marijuana is, how addicting it can be, and how it can cause mental illness. All of this was new to us.” “We tried tough love, taking his phone, taking his car, therapy. Once he turned 18, it was impossible. There's no way to help your child when they are a mentally ill adult.”
Jon Mattleman has worked with schools, parents, mental health organizations, and businesses for the last 30 years to help manage anxiety, stress, depression and more. Today, Jon discusses why your teen might not be opening up to you, social media challenges, and so much more. It's not just because they're going through a ‘phrase', it's because we, as parents, make it difficult for them to talk! Sometimes we need to take a step back, give our teen space, and just listen attentively without trying to problem solve. Jon shares some useful strategies on this week's episode to help navigate these tough teen years. Key Takeaways About Jon and his extensive work in this field. Why don't teens talk to us? Believe it or not, teens want to share their fears! Parents are always talking and giving advice when sometimes we just need to shut up and listen! Why do teens have better conversations with you in the car? Teens stop talking because they can see your face. Jon decided to try something new and turn off the light tod see what happens! Just because you're ready to talk doesn't mean it's a good time for them to talk. Kids know when you're not present! Jon offers advice to parents who are worried their children aren't motivated enough. We often say the wrong thing when it comes to handling anxiety. When your teenage son comes home drunk, the best time to talk about this is not in the moment, it's the next morning. Jon shares what he learned when he asked his son why he got drunk. When you're talking to your child about something they made a mistake on, don't make a decision about the consequences on the spot just yet. This teaches them by being honest with you, they'll get punished. Give it some distance. We are all so hyper connected with technology. How can we best manage it? What is digital self-harm? What are some of the best ways to talk to your teens about some of their anxiety or mental health challenges they might be going through? When it comes to better mental health awareness, schools are slow to accept it, but we are getting better. If you're really concerned about your child's mental health, talk to your guidance counselor at the school first. Therapists can be harder to find during Covid. There are so many consequences to sweeping your child's mental wellbeing and health under the table. Address it now before it gets worse.

It's not good in terms of their longevity or safety, but we have to understand their reasoning and process.”

Music is powerful. Find your songs and hold on to them to help you bring yourself back to more positive times. Carol lost her son when he was 17 years old. Music has helped her through some painful moments. We want to give our teens a reality check and be independent adults, but we also want them to be safe. Influence and lead.

Elaine Pasqua, CSP, is a dynamic nationally recognized keynote speaker and trainer who has transformed the lives of more than half a million people nationwide. She helps young students generate positive choices, healthy communication, and respectful relationships in their lives. Elaine shares on this week's episode how to have tough conversations with your teens so that they understand the consequences and risks of underage drinking, drugs, sex, and more. Key Takeaways Why do teens take such big risks? Teenagers think everyone is drinking underage, having sex, and partaking in drugs more so than they actually are. However, this misconception makes them want to do it too so that they're not missing out. Elaine shares some interesting stats that are actually skewing the teenage perception/experience. How do you talk to your teens about drugs and alcohol? Fathers need to be engaged in the conversation about this. Elaine shares why alcohol is so damaging to the human body. Every teenager is intelligent. You have to give them the stories as well as the facts of what these illegal activities can do to you. Keep in mind that your kids model what they see. Why is marijuana so bad? It's all legal now! Keep citing the examples and keep talking about the consequences. This is not just a one-time conversation. Remember, as parents, we only have so much control. We have to educate them to make good choices, even when they're not around you/living in your household. The decisions you make as a teenager are stepping stones into adulthood. Elaine shares additional information on the negative consequences of high-risk drinking. The best time to talk to your children about real issues is in a car. Sponsored by “Stand Up for Your Greatness!” Edgerety.com/education Resources Elainepasqua.com Elaine on LinkedIn Quotes: “As teenagers, the brain has basically lost its guardian angel and the little person saying, ‘I wouldn't do that if I were you.'” “The important thing is to continually talk about the consequences, citing stories, and it's not just one conversation. It should also be age appropriate.” “Some of the most important phases of our brain development are happening in late teens and into the age of 25. Alcohol interferes with the brain development, and you can actually arrest the cognitive development of a young person.”

In the quest to become a great leader, most people want to know the how; they typically don't think much about the who. Lolly Daskal, a world-renown executive leadership coach, believes that great leadership starts from within. In this episode, she and host Bill Coppel – Managing Director and Chief Client Growth Officer at First Clearing – discuss how we can fall into leadership gaps if we don't know who we are. Self-awareness is an essential quality for leaders. From her cross-cultural leadership expertise, Lolly Daskal has identified seven archetypes of leaders, each having its own power, values, and strengths. However, with each archetype, we can also fall into a gap without realizing it and lead from the archetype's problematic competing side. Leaders must learn to be aware of these impediments, reflect on what is needed in particular moments and circumstances, and use intuition to make connections with others. Without the awareness to make a decision in the moment about how to act, we will likely fall into the gap.
