Hi Parents!

When your teen feels like they have no friends, it can be heartbreaking to watch and even harder to know how to help. In this episode, I sit down with Sheri Gazitt, friendship expert and founder of Teen Wise, to talk about how parents can support their teen through loneliness without adding pressure or making the situation worse.

We explore the important difference between being alone and feeling lonely, and how loneliness can begin to shape your teen’s thoughts, confidence, and self-perception. Sheri shares why trying to fix the problem quickly or pushing friendships too soon can backfire, and what it looks like to take a more supportive, skill-building approach instead.

We also talk about small, realistic steps teens can take to begin building connections, even when they feel unsure or hesitant, and how parents can guide them without taking over.

If you’ve been worried about your teen’s social life or wondering how to help when they feel left out or disconnected, this episode will give you practical tools and a new perspective on how to support them.

Hi Parents!

Helping your teen choose a career path can feel like a lot of pressure, especially when you just want them to be successful, secure, and happy. But what if some of the ways we try to help are making them feel more anxious and stuck?

In this episode, I sit down with Miriam Groom, Career Therapist and founder of Mindful Career, to talk about the biggest mistake parents make when guiding their teens through career decisions. We explore why so many teens feel overwhelmed when thinking about their future, and how pressure to choose the “right” or “safe” path can disconnect them from who they truly are. Miriam shares how personality, values, and self-awareness play a critical role in career alignment, and why overlooking these factors can lead to confusion, avoidance, or lack of motivation.

We also talk about how to recognize whether your teen is genuinely feeling lost versus appearing unmotivated, and what parents can do differently to support them without adding pressure.

If you’ve ever found yourself worrying about your teen’s future or unsure how to guide them, this episode will give you practical, grounded strategies to help them move forward with more clarity and confidence.

Hi Parents!

What if the most powerful way to help your anxious teen wasn’t about fixing them, but learning how to support them differently?

In this solo episode, I’m talking about why having the right tools as a parent can completely change the way your teen experiences anxiety and why your awareness, emotional regulation, and responses matter more than you may realize.

If you’ve been feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, stuck in constant worry, or unsure how to help your teen without making things worse, this episode is for you. I dive into the hidden ways anxiety can take over the family dynamic, how parents often unintentionally reinforce anxiety out of love and protection, and why becoming a calmer, more confident support system can make such a powerful impact on your teen’s emotional well-being.

I also share why I created The Parent’s Anxiety Toolkit™, my 6-week parent program designed to help parents stop feeling helpless and start feeling equipped with the tools, language, and confidence to support their teen through anxiety in a healthier, more connected way.

Big hugs,

Monica Crnogorac
