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!

169\\ Worried Your Teen is Cheating Using ChatGPT? How to Talk About AI Technology With Your Teen with Audrey Wisch
Do you worry your teen's use of ChatGPT for school assignments is cheating?
Do you need help having that conversation with your teenage daughter?
Does the use of AI intimidate you?
I have Audrey Wisch from Curious Cardinals on to discuss the topic of AI in schools and how you, mom of teen, can talk to them about this often misunderstood tool.
Audrey took a bold step by pausing her studies at Stanford University to establish Curious Cardinals. Her mission was twofold: to empower K-12 students to unlock their greatest potential and to provide college students with meaningful work. Under Audrey's leadership, Curious Cardinals has flourished, serving thousands of students worldwide and boasting a roster of 550 of the most accomplished college students as mentors.
Recognized for her innovative approach to education, Audrey has been featured on CNN, in Forbes, and on the Today Show, where she shared her vision of scaling a personalized learning platform. Curious Cardinals has raised over $6.8 million in seed funding, led by investors Anthos Capital and Audacious Ventures.
Audrey's achievements have earned her numerous accolades. She was recognized in the Forbes 30 Under 30 at 19 years old and in 2023 was named the youngest honoree of the Jewish Women International Women to Watch award. At Stanford, Audrey pursued her passion for history, majoring in the subject and conducting women's history research that was published in the Stanford Historical Journal.
When not working or engaging with members of the Curious Cardinals community, Audrey can be found running while listening to podcasts, immersing herself in a good book, or exploring art museums, continually feeding her curiosity and love for learning.
You can find Audrey here.
