About Connect With Your Teens | Parenting Teens, Family Communication, Build Trust, Conversation Starters, Christian Moms of Teens
***TOP 2.0% GLOBAL PODCAST*** The go-to podcast for Christian moms who want to build trust, improve communication, and create deeper connections with their teens and young adults. Are you tired of feeling dismissed every time your teen pulls out their phone mid-conversation? Do conversations with your teen feel more like nagging sessions than real connection? Is your teen shutting down, giving one-word answers, or pushing back when you're simply trying to help? You want your teen to feel safe coming to you, especially when life gets hard. But sometimes, the more you try to connect, the further away they seem. I'm so glad you're here! Connect With Your Teens will help you move from frustration, misunderstandings, and communication breakdowns to more peaceful, open, trust-building conversations. You'll learn practical communication skills to listen without fixing, correcting, or interrogating; navigate difficult conversations; and rebuild connection when your relationship feels strained. But there's something even more important. Lasting change begins with how we show up as moms. When we anchor our identity in Christ rather than our children's behavior or choices, we can begin communicating from love instead of fear, frustration, or the need to control the outcome. Hi, I'm Terri Lee—a wife, mom, Tutu, and Christian communication coach. For years, I thought the key to raising my kids well was teaching the right lessons, taking them to church, and trying to fix their behavior. But instead of building connection, it led to frustration, distance, and feeling like my words didn't matter. I realized that to have deep, lasting connections—both now and after my kids left home—I needed to change how I communicated. So I did. I learned to listen without criticism, communicate in ways that build trust, and create relationships where my kids felt safe opening up. Now I help moms do the same. Whether you're navigating screen time battles, disrespect, parenting disagreements, concerns about your teen's faith, or simply wishing your child would talk to you again, you'll find Christ-centered encouragement, practical parenting tips, and communication tools you can begin using right away.

106 | Want Your Teen to Talk More Start With This One Communication Skill
Published 27 Oct 2026 · Transcript excerpt
[…] Mom or dad actually wants to hear me and those experiences add up. They build connection. Connection builds trust and trust gives you influence when the conversations really do matter. So don't underestimate those ordinary conversations. Listen a little longer, stay curious for one more response, give them room to say more, because you never know which seemingly insignificant conversation might become the one that begins changing something between you. And the next time your teen starts talking, I want you to be able to stay in that moment instead of scrambling in your head trying to figure out what to say next. […]
