Moms Talking Teens started in the spring or 2020. I stared the group because many moms I was talking with personally and professionally had expressed an interest in a Moms group for Moms who have teenagers!! After organizing a plan on how to connect moms while keeping a coaching vibe to the group; I beta tested two groups to help fine tune the Moms Talking Teens concept! It was a positive experience for all the moms involved and the feedback from the moms has been valuable in planning and improving the structure of the group.
Raising a teen is challenging! Yes, our teens are awesome and we love them and they do great things!! While our teens are evolving and learning, they are becoming more independent, challenging parents, and navigating their world in a whole new way (as a teen).
Moms Talking Teens is for Moms who want to focus on parenting teens today and tackle real issues. It is a space to share, learn and grow by intentionally talking about real topics relating to raising teens. We will address topics like teen boundaries and expectations. All the Moms who register, will receive a survey prior to our first session to share topics and issues she would like to explore. The results from the survey will be used to develop topics for the sessions.
The Moms in this group will also take time to set a monthly goal that relates to raising their teen. Moms know their teens, know themselves and their families – so each goal must be unique to each mom. As the coach, I will provide some insight on writing purposeful goals that will keep each mom motivated and focused!
As the coach and leader of the group, my role is to believe in each of the Moms, to ask challenging questions around the topics we discuss and lead each mom to develop a monthly goal that supports a positive teen/mom relationship. As the coach leader, I will not be advising the group, I will be leading the group using my coaching skills and my 25 years of experience working with parents.
The commitment is necessary, you will only get what you are willing to give. We moms are busy, so the realistic time frame for this group is meeting once a month for 1.5 hours for 4 months.
