Are you walking on eggshells, unsure how to talk to your teen without tension or pushback? Do your conversations feel more like nagging than real connection? Is your teen shut down, distracted, or glued to a screen… while you're desperate to build trust and keep your relationship strong?

You are not alone—there is hope!

If you’re longing for honest conversations, stronger connection, and a peaceful relationship—without constant conflict or shutting down—this podcast is for you. You’ll hear faith-filled encouragement, real talk, and simple strategies to help you become the calm; confident mom your teen feels safe opening up to—without pressure, guilt, or control.

Aloha, I’m Terri, a wife, mom, Tutu, and Christ-centered communication coach. Through my years as a social worker, ministry leader, and homeschool mom, I’ve seen firsthand how complex family dynamics can be—and how communication often breaks down in the moments that matter most. Left unaddressed, that breakdown can create lasting hurt and disconnection—but it doesn’t have to stay that way.

This is exactly why I created this podcast! For the past 16 years, I’ve helped parents develop faith-based communication strategies that build trust, restore connection, and strengthen relationships. Connect With Your Teens exists to help Christian moms build deeper connections with their teens by replacing frustration and miscommunication with tools that foster peace, trust, and lasting connection.

In this trailer episode, I’ll share the heart behind this show, who it’s for, and how it can support you in building trust and connection with your teen—even in the middle of phone distractions, shutdowns, and tough conversations.

Whether your teen is drifting, distracted, or just hard to reach, there is hope. You're not alone in this journey—and together, we'll learn how to navigate these teen years with grace, wisdom, and the kind of calm, steady presence that draws our teens closer.

Now, go grab a latte or your favorite cup of tea and let's get to the heart of it!

Rejoicing in Hope,

Terri
