Raising a Teen? The 3 Parenting Fundamentals for Creating a Calm & Connected Household

You don't have to know all the answers

One thing I notice about parents is that when kids struggle – they’re suffering, acting out, hostile, or unmotivated, I often see parents react in two ways:

— They get weighed down under the burden of solving the situation

— They get into a state of upset themselves, like panic, blame, shame, insecurity, regret, fear, or intensity.

It’s 100% understandable and something I’ve done myself as a parent.

But these reactions can build momentum and silently become chronic, creating parents that are destabilized, worn out, and pressured to fix a problem they can’t necessarily solve or control right away, if at all.

That means that every time the kid struggles, the parent reacts by going into their own struggles. It can be exhausting for parents and it puts them in a perpetual state of duress.

Sometimes there are no easy or immediate answers. As parents we have to play the long game, and we need to be able to evolve and adapt.

And in order to evolve parents need to step back from the upset and urgency and look at things with a different lens and a new perspective. That’s a big part of what I do.

But I also teach them what it takes to stay out of the upset, pressure, and urgency more consistently. That allows them to find their common sense, clarity, faith, and most important of all, the pioneering spirit that parenting requires.

While we can’t control or fix our kids, we can control how often and how much we land in reactive states ourselves. The better the parent’s own state of mind, the more creative, persistent, assertive, strong, and confident he/she will become. And that’s where all the power lives.

Examples of parenting topics I help parents with:

Erika has been an amazing resource

Erika shares her ninja-level understanding of parenting. She has been an amazing resource for Angus and myself as well as our girls. She is smart, funny, and ruthless when it comes to trusting the innate wisdom within to flourish in your kids.”

PARENTS OF TWO AND HOSTS OF THE ‘REWILDING LOVE’ PODCAST​

Erika Bugbee is the teen whisperer. She’s also the 'parents-of-teens' whisperer.

Erika works with teens and their parents in ways that look like magic, but are deceptively simple and full of common sense. She talks about how understanding what a teen’s inner life is like–even just a little bit–can make a gigantic difference in the quality of your interactions.

You will love this conversation. Listen lightly, but listen for the depth and the feeling in how Erika speaks. It almost sounds too simple to actually work, but if you saw the impact she has with her clients you’d know that you were hearing truth.”

FAQs

No, your partner does not need to participate in any of my programs. In fact about half of the people that attend my relationship programs either have partners that don’t participate, or they’re single. It may seem like a funny concept to attend a relationships program without a partner, but the fact is, it doesn’t actually matter given how relationships actually work.

The goal of these programs is to help you to show up to the relationship, and the tension and challenges it brings with less reactivity and overanalysis, and more clarity, grace, and presence. That has a profound and immediate impact on the relationship as it changes the level of communication, the chemistry, the connection, and the overall dynamic. It’s the best thing you can do for yourself, AND for the relationship.

Yes. Many of the people in my relationship programs are either single and don’t necessarily want a relationship right now, are dating and looking to settle down, or are with someone but not sure if that’s ‘their person.’

My programs are designed to give you a solid foundation to build close and healthy relationships in the future. It does not mean you are committing to the person you’re with, or that you need to be in a relationship right now. When you’re ready, and you find someone you want to put your energy into, you’ll understand what it takes to stay out of your old habits, go through challenges without shutting down, and build a connection that’s real and gets better over time.
