It’s been a rough few weeks for me and my family, as I’m sure it has for many of you.

Today I am grateful to live in such a beautiful place and have quality time with my son. The beach is a calming, grounding place for both of us.

Last week we had a dance party. This morning was a visit to the beach. I’m doing all I can to fit in some “fun” and practice gratitude, especially when the world feels heavy.

What’s one small thing you can do for yourself today?? Sending love and well wishes to all of you!

There is so much more to your teen besides what type of student they are!

Many of us were raised with the belief that doing well in school meant 'success in life'.

What does success in life mean to you?

Tell your teens how proud you are of who they have become. Take time to recognize their strengths and let them know what you see.

5 ways to show your children you're proud of them:

✨ 1. Praise them for things that matter: your teen's significant accomplishments deserve high amounts of praise. Don't spend too much time with high amounts of praise when they're not deserved.

✨ 2. Praise the process! Validate their hard work that led to the achievement rather than praising ONLY the achievement, because the win is not the only thing that matters.

✨ 3. Talk about obstacles. Recognize all your child had to overcome to accomplish what they did. This shows them you paid attention to their efforts and are truly proud of them.

✨ 4. If you "Express confidence" in your teen's abilities and appreciate their effort they put into an experience, they are much more likely to be confident themselves.

✨ 5. Don't overdo it! Be proud of your kids, but pride in context is important.

Family traditions should be an exciting addition to your holiday and hopefully one the whole family will cherish! If you're looking for a new one, consider having the whole family pick out a tradition together. This will make it even more meaningful. And who says you have to limit your tradition to just one?

What are family traditions that you have for Thanksgiving?

If your teen is going to use the internet, which they are, they need to know how to practice internet safety.

Send my post to your teenager or save it to show them later - it is so important they know the risks and how to combat them.

What tips do you share with your kids to practice ?

Technology is scary. It's always changing and there's always something new our kids want to use.

I believe in allowing teens freedom with appropriate boundaries. Remember, we didn't grow up with all-access to technology! It can be difficult to find the "freedom with appropriate boundaries" with your teen, but we have to try.

With boundaries, conversations, and acceptance - it's my goal to help you and your teen create a healthy relationship with technology and view it through a positive scope.

Many teens I see don't have enough information regarding tech safety while others express that their parents have an over-bearing control on their technology.

Do you and your family have a positive relationship with technology?

When you have an anxious teen you probably get caught up in trying to fix it for them. But most of the time, just being there is the most helpful.

Try these:

1. Talking to them. Don't know what to say? Take a look at these simple statements that are very meaningful!

2. Encourage your teen to write in a journal if they aren't ready to talk about it. Remember to respect their privacy. Check out my Etsy store for journal prompts for teens!

3. If your teen's anxiety is preventing them from doing day to day activities they enjoy, seek professional help.

Did you have anxiety as a teenager? What helped you?
