If you're a high-performing parent trying to raise a high-performing teen, you know this already—it takes courage. Not always the “run-into-the-fire” kind, but the quiet, everyday kind: letting go of control, staying consistent, and having the hard conversations. In our milestone 100th episode, we celebrate YOU—the brave moms and dads who courageously shift from parenting to coaching on your quest to create magical relationships with your teens!

Sure, we're pumped we've published content for you every Monday for 100 weeks, but what we're most excited about is you and teaming with you to elevate your performance.

Here are a few questions to further help you level up your bravery as a parent:

• How can you demonstrate quiet courage on a consistent basis?
• What do courageous parents do that others don’t?
• What does "brave parenting" look like to you?
