Stop Fixing, Start Coaching – Why Your Advice Might Be Pushing Your Teen Away
✅ Hook: “Ever given great advice only for your teen to roll their eyes? Here’s why coaching works better.”
✅ Big Idea: When we jump in to fix, we send the message that they can’t handle it themselves.
✅ Why This Matters:
Teens need to feel capable.
Advice often lands as criticism.
✅ Coaching Approach:Instead of giving solutions, ask: “What do you think would help?”
Instead of correcting, reflect: “That sounds really tough.”
Instead of jumping in, offer choices: “Would you like ideas or do you just need me to listen?”
✅ Takeaway Mantra: “Hold space, don’t take over.”
