When we listen before we advise

and stay curious instead of urgent,

we send a powerful message to anxious teens:

You are enough — even when you don’t feel like you belong yet.

What is it for you? Where does your head go? 🤔

Either of these is a difficult place to be. The idea of your teen feeling alone is heartbreaking.

Things to consider if you face this
1. Friendship issues are normal
2. Coping with people is an important life skill ... there are many idiots out there!
3. The pain usually sits with what this situation makes them think about themselves.

So how do you help

LISTEN - let them vent it out and sometimes this brings them to their own answers
DO NOT FIX - Ask if you can help instead... and respect this if you get a no
HELP WITH SELF ESTEEM - Under these issues usually sits a sense that they are the problem or in the wrong. Help them see their identity is theirs to choose no something for others to define!

If this is of interest I have released a new Podcast episode with more on this

What a privalidge it was to hear about amazing Charlie, so sadly lost through knife crime. Thank you to Henfield Youth Club for organising this event! The message his dad shares is emotional and something critical to share with our teens.

The anonymous ability to report anyone who is carrying a knife literally could save lives.

If one family is saved from this it has to be worth a 10 min convo.

Its a lot to expect them to "dob someone in" the fear of what would happen is someone found out it was them is so real. So this totally anonymous service IS the Answer!!

Thank you to Martin for his moving, eye opening talk last night, sharing your pain and the reality of this was emotional to watch...and thank you Henfield Youth Club for making this happen!!

There are ways to make our teens future safer and here is one simple way how!

When teens feel left out, they don’t just feel lonely — they start questioning who they are!

This latest Podcast episode is for parents of anxious teens who feel they don’t belong at school — and for anyone who’s tried to fix pain that needed to be heard instead.

Teens and food... what a minefield 💥

It can be a motivator or a huge place for worry depending where you teen is at! Too much, not enough, grey food, sweets all the time, through to restrictive and all of these cause concern! Food equals survival after all!

To help I have released a 🌟 New Podcast Episode 🌟

Teen Food Choices

How do you have your say, manage your concerns and how can you understand the HUGE WHY behind this?? Because rarely are food choices about the food!!

ANXIOUS TEEN? Try these!

Some quick swaps and a funny one to finish with! 😆

Anxiety is all about the fear of not being able to deal with certain situations. Its not just worrying about "what could happen" its how they feel THEY will deal with this awful scenario.

You can massively help them feel capable, confident, and comfortable to take back some control with this!
