You’re listening to Juggling Joy, a podcast for parents who know... the juggle is real. I’m your host Karen Jane DeWitt and in this episode I got to sit down with Kelly Kent, a mom of 4 teenagers. I love this interview because as a mom of a kindergartener and a toddler, I got to hear the wisdom of someone who’s ahead of me on their parenting journey. She talks about what led to a sharp turn in her relationship with her eldest daughter, the impact of fear on their relationship, and what she would do differently if she had to do it all over again. Stick around to the end for a bonus two-minute interview with my five AND A HALF year old son, who tells me what it’ll be like to be a teenager. Just a warning before we get started, this episode has mentions of eating disorders, self-harm, and suicide. If you or someone you know is struggling with a mental health crisis, call the National Suicide and Crisis Lifeline by dialing 988. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jugglingjoy/message Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jugglingjoy/support
