ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode of Elevate, host Sue Reeve is joined by Tanith Carey, parenting author, award-winning journalist and one of the UK's most widely read voices on raising children and teenagers. Tanith has written 13 books on parenting and child psychology, translated into 35 languages, and is training as a Gestalt psychotherapist, which gives her approach a depth that goes well beyond the parenting advice you find online.
This is the conversation that does not get talked about enough: what happens when your child becomes a teenager and the close relationship you had seems to disappear overnight. It is essential listening for any woman who manages a team brilliantly at work, then comes home and cannot get five minutes with her 15-year-old. Tanith is clear, practical and grounded in neuroscience, and she gives you something you can actually do tonight.
What You'll Learn in This Episode:
- What is really happening in the teenage brain, and why the nervous system matters more than you think
- Why the skills that make you brilliant at work can backfire at home
- How to regulate yourself first, so a battleground becomes a conversation
- Why teenagers spell love T-I-M-E, and simple ways to give it
- What to do tonight if you feel the relationship slipping away
- Why taking responsibility, and even apologising, is a gift to your teenager
