Parenting Teens with Connie Albers
Regardless of where you are at in your parenting journey, this is an amazing episode for you to listen in on (maybe take some notes). It has been such a joy to get to know Connie Albers over the years. She has been a great friend and a great mentor. What is beautiful about her new book, Parenting Beyond the Rules, is that she can be your mentor too! My copy of her book is such a mess. There is so much that I’ve stared and underlined. This is a book that I travel with — I have taken it literally everywhere.

A Special Thanks to…
Rend Collective for allowing me to use their incredible song “The Joy of the Lord is My Strength”. This song has so much special meaning to me and it highlights the theme verse for my podcast — Nehemiah 8:10. Be sure to check out their music! They are such a fun band to listen to…and to see live.
