It really is just so important to just be in the moment. Maybe that this is just a bad day and my emotions are all mad right now because I haven't had A Good Day.
Ever struggled to get a conversation going with your teen or wondered why your parents just don't seem to get you? This episode of the Addict II Athlete Podcast is here to help. Hosted by Blu Robinson, a seasoned mental health therapist and addiction counselor, alongside his 14-year-old daughter Savannah, this episode dives into the art of parent-teen communication.
Blu and Savannah bring their own experiences to the table, sharing practical tips on how to start meaningful conversations and keep them going without turning into a shouting match. They highlight the importance of being assertive rather than aggressive, showing how a simple shift in tone can make all the difference. The duo also explores how generational differences affect communication styles and the need for mutual respect.
One key takeaway is the importance of being present in the moment, especially when emotions are running high. Blu points out that a bad day can cloud judgment and communication, so acknowledging this can help prevent misunderstandings. This episode isn't just about talking; it's about listening and understanding too. With personal anecdotes and relatable advice, Blu and Savannah offer a roadmap for building stronger, more empathetic relationships between parents and teens.
Whether you're a parent looking to connect with your child or a teen trying to navigate the tricky waters of adolescence, this episode provides valuable insights that can help bridge the gap.
