The Hard Truth:
The quality of your relationship with your daughter determines how well you will be able to connect with and support her through these teenage years.
Why wasn't this bit written in the child-raising terms and conditions? The dream was laughter and hugs, deep conversations over hot chocolates. That look in her eyes that tells you you're the only one in the world she wants near her in difficult moments.
It was meant to be riding bikes in cul-de-sacs and being home by dark. Villages raising children and respecting elders.
Tickling has been replaced with screens. Jokes replaced with tears and eye-rolls. Hugs replaced with slammed doors.
Rather than seeking your wisdom and protection, she's shutting you out, shutting you down, and trying to navigate these formative years on her own.
Now, right when she is being challenged by low self-confidence, hormones and friendship issues, the relationship you've had with your daughter is fracturing.
And as your relationship deteriorates, so too does your ability to help her when she needs you most.
We promise: you are not alone in this.
But it's hard to see how things could be different when...
nothing you try is working and you're at a loss for what to do next
you're exhausted by the moodiness and emotional outbursts
you're tired of feeling angry, frustrated and disconnected from her.
So instead, what if you..
Knew what the heck what was going on?! Understood and anticipated your daughter's behaviours and moods so that you could respond instead of react.
Said the right thing at the right time in order to create open communication and a safe space so you could help her through challenging times.
Felt sure in your decisions. Were able to parent instinctively, knew exactly when to step in and when to step away.
Become a confident guide for your daughter
(and ensure your relationship makes it through the teenage years in one piece!)

Every day matters. The time to start is now.
The results speak for themselves...
"The program gave me deeper recognition of my role as, not so much my daughter's disciplinarian, but the caretaker of their own identity."

"Doing this program at the stage we're at as a family has been really good because it's given us the skills to develop and use now, and also down the track."
