What if your teen's 'rude' behavior is actually a cry for help? Could anxiety be hiding behind their tough exterior? In today's episode, we dive deep into the world of teen anxiety with my special guest Monica Crnogorac, a certified teen anxiety coach. We unearth misconceptions about teen anxiety, discuss how parents often misinterpret their teen’s actions, and explore concrete methods to support your anxious teen without adding to their stress.


With her unique blend of personal and professional experience, Monica sheds light on the common issues teens face today, from academic pressures to social relationships. We delve into the significant role parents play in modeling healthy coping mechanisms and how small shifts in our approach can have a monumental impact on our teen’s mental health.


Every parent of a teen will find valuable insights in this episode. Monica’s practical tips on how to navigate the often tumultuous teen years with empathy and understanding are a game-changer.
