Why Your Teen Stopped Talking to You (And How to Fix It)
|
Dear Reader I received a lot of heartbreaking messages from parents like this mother’s message: "My 15-year-old daughter used to tell me everything. Now she barely looks up from her phone when I walk into the room. I feel like I've lost my child." Sound familiar? Here's the truth: Your teen didn't stop wanting to connect with you. They just stopped wanting to be managed by you. The Shift That Changes Everything Somewhere between childhood and adolescence, our teens outgrow the "Because I said so" approach. They crave respect, autonomy, and genuine conversation. They want coaches, not commanders. But here's what most parents don't realize: Coaching your teen is a learnable skill. Introducing: Parent Like a Coach After working with hundreds of families, I've created a 14-day transformation program that turns communication breakdowns into breakthrough moments. What makes this different?
From Boss Parent to Coach Parent Boss Parents say: "You need to study more!" Coach Parents ask: "What's making math challenging for you right now?" Boss Parents demand: "Clean your room!"

Dear Reader, Today, I'm saying goodbye to Jeena—a 15-year-old furball who mastered the art of living better than most of us ever will. Jeena didn't believe in walks without cause (no treat, no walk—that was her policy). She was a master negotiator, a gourmet enthusiast, and had an uncanny ability to sense when someone wasn't paying enough attention to her. Forget FOMO? She practically invented it. But what made Jeena truly special wasn't her quirks—it was her heart. Her unconditional love....
Dear Reader, Karwa Chauth: When Love Trumps Logic (and Lunch) Welcome to modern India, where women are CEOs, surgeons, pilots, and quantum physicists by day—and moon-stalking, starving romantics by night. The Tradition That Refuses to Make Sense (And We Love It Anyway) Let me be clear: Karwa Chauth makes absolutely ZERO logical sense in 2025. "So you're telling me you won't eat or drink water all day because... the moon needs to appear so your husband lives longer?" "Correct." "And you'll do...
