Mom-guilt looks different when you have teens. And it can be so sneaky that you don’t even recognize it as mom-guilt. But whether you have babies, toddlers or teens, mom-guilt is a LIE.
Mom-guilt pretends to be necessary and make you a better mom, but it is actually stealing your confidence in your own intuition and distracting you from what is best for you and your family.
In this episode you will learn 5 truths about motherhood that will help you loosen the grip mom-guilt has on you, so you can be a happier and more confident parent to your teen.

Is your teen feeling the end of the year stress? In addition to busy schedules and long to-do lists of the holidays, they have finals, projects, papers and concerts. And if they are a High School senior, they also have college application deadlines.

So how can you help? Try these 7 strategies to help your stressed-out teen.
