RAISING HER CONFIDENTLY | Connecting with Teens, Parenting Styles, Family Communication, Raising Teen Daughters

Jeannie Baldomero | Parenting Teens Coach Inspired by Brene Brown, Mark Gregston, Gary Chapman

Do you want to have open communication with your teen daughter? Do you find yourself up late at night constantly thinking about how to talk to your teen or why she’s not opening up to you? Do you wake up with confident intentions only to feel confused and frustrated when you get 1-word answers from your daughter or instead of the deep conversations you hoped to have, you end up in a yelling match?

Hi, I’m Jeannie. I think back to when I was 13. I was that teenage girl you are googling about! Rebellious, hard to figure out, “hard-headed” as my mom would call me. She even said, “I don’t even know who you are anymore!”

Several years later, I too found myself raising young teens. I too felt grieved by the loss of my sweet talkative little girl! I wanted her to come to me about anything even if she was scared and listen to my advice.

My passion for healthy families as a former educator, a homeschooling family for several years, and a zeal to impact young teen girls has led me to train in the Coach Model and partner with moms like you and guide them to create safe, healthy relationships with their teens.

In this podcast, I share tools and resources to help improve communication with your teen girl and strengthen your relationship with her. I’m providing you ways to talk to your teen through relationship-building exercises to make intentional connections, establish boundaries to create that safe space, and build a trust-worthy community of healthy friends and influence to confidently get you through this season of raising a teen girl.

So grab that oat milk latte and let’s raise her confidently together!

285\\ Growing Gratitude: 4 Ways to Practice Thankfulness with Your Daughter

It’s so easy to get caught up in the chaos of life — the schedules, the moods, the constant running around — that we forget to pause and simply say thank you. But gratitude isn’t just a seasonal thing; it’s a way to reframe how we see our lives and how our daughters see theirs. When we model gratitude, our girls learn that thankfulness doesn’t depend on everything going right — it grows from recognizing what’s already good and meaningful, right where we are. So today, I want to share four ways you and your daughter can practice gratitude together — especially this Thanksgiving week — and watch how it strengthens your bond and shifts both your perspectives.
