- Parenting
Hey parents,
I wanted to share a personal conversation I had with a dear friend I’ve known for over 30 years because she raised a great question that’s relatable to anyone raising teens.
My girlfriend and I met when we were in the thick of our teenage years and now, we’re both raising teens, so we naturally we found ourselves talking about all the social complexities teens experience, particularly when it comes to concept of defining your daughter’s ideal “tribe.”
I’m so grateful my girlfriend brought up this issue because, honestly, as a new podcaster, it’s really easy to get caught up in what the experts say you’re supposed to do to have a successful podcast.
The Proverbial Box
Between you and I, I’ve never thrived when I’ve had to operate inside the ‘proverbial’ box.
And when it comes to defining a tribe that feels good to your daughter – that doesn’t fit inside a box either.
Which may cause some confusion if she’s comparing her interests to what she sees on her media platforms.
Because the larger and fancier the group photo, the more she may think … huge tribe = happiness.
But deep down, we all know that what we think we need isn’t always what we really need.
The Million Dollar Question
And that’s why I’d like to ask you … how does YOUR daughter define her tribe?

Lastly, one of the best parts of this podcast is YOU.
And our community is growing quickly.
It’s super cool to see you’re listening across the globe because we all share this common trait – we’re stronger when we feel connected to one another.
So, if you’d take a moment and post one strategy you’ve found helpful on the iTunes podcast app, that would be awesome.
Your interaction helps other parents, just like us, find the show.
Okay, that’s all for today.
I look forward to connecting with you next time.
