Have you ever wished parenting came with a clear, supportive job description—especially during the tough teenage years?

Many parents feel overwhelmed and defeated because traditional expectations make the "job" of parenting seem impossible. In this episode, Jessica Stewart explores why parenting feels so hard and how redefining our role with a focus on connection, acceptance, love, and emotional management can transform your daily experience with your teen.

  • You'll learn why most parental job descriptions set you up for frustration—and how to shift your mindset to feel successful.
  • You'll discover the four core values that can guide you through the emotional ups and downs of raising a teenager.


  • You'll gain practical tools for connecting with, accepting, and loving your teenager (and yourself) even when things get tough.
