Your teen pulls away. Conversation slows. Silence settles in. What now?

In this episode, I share the continuation of my personal story with my daughter Bre—how I missed the signs of emotional disconnection during her early teen years and stayed in “support mode” by doing when she needed something deeper: emotional presence.

You’ll hear the story of the kitchen table moment that exposed just how disconnected we’d become—and what God began to show me about myself.

This wasn’t about fixing my daughter. This was about me shifting from performance-driven parenting to Spirit-led connection—anchored in my identity as God’s daughter.

You’ll leave this episode with:

• An honest look at what causes “good” kids to emotionally withdraw
  
• The turning point that shifted everything in my relationship with Bre
  
• A simple but powerful phrase you can begin using today to rebuild trust

If your teen has emotionally checked out, or if you’re afraid it’s too late to reconnect—this episode will give you both hope and a place to start.
