Empowering parents to have the tough conversations with their teens about love, sex, and relationships.
The teen years are a roller coaster ride of emotions for many girls, especially when it comes to love, sex and relationships. As a mother, you’re doing everything you know to do to guide your daughter along her journey to adulthood with her heart, self-esteem and confidence intact. But maybe you could use some assistance. ONE DECISION can mean the difference between the teen you love, living their best life or settling for a mediocre one.
As a youth speaker and healthy relationship educator, I am on a mission to help as many teens as possible avoid the latter. And the resources on this page were designed to do just that. Take advantage of these tools for girls AND guys that will empower your teen(s) to dream bigger DREAMS, make better DECISIONS and realize brighter DESTINIES.
Here are a few resources to aid you in having the tough conversations with your teen:
Tough Conversations eCourse
The eCourse includes three videos that are 4-5 minutes long. The videos are designed to be spread out over time—maybe watch and discuss one a week. I also recommend you, watching the video alone initially so you can formulate your thoughts in order to discuss the video with your daughter after you’ve viewed it together.
