Manage episode 407765819 series 3495483
Whether your child is facing a switch in high school endorsements or a complete overhaul of their college major, our latest episode is a rich resource for parents and teens alike. With a blend of empathy and practical advice, we dissect the emotional journey of transitions, offering strategies for adjusting educational plans and navigating the complexities of shifting aspirations towards the future.
Navigating the choppy waters of a career path isn't a solo journey; it's a partnership between parent and teen. Drawing from my personal detour away from a nursing program, I delve into the cognitive triangle of thoughts, feelings, and behaviors, bringing the principles of cognitive behavioral therapy into our conversation.
This approach arms you with the tools to provide a supportive environment, helping your teen assess their satisfaction, explore alternative roles, and make informed decisions without fear or judgment. It's about connecting, understanding, and guiding them through each step with encouragement and insight.
We emphasize the transformative power of small, positive changes. It's these incremental shifts that can boost your teen's confidence, reframing challenges as opportunities for growth.
Share this journey with others in your community, and let's continue to embrace these transformative years with our teens, empowering them to find their unique path to success.
