5 | From “It’s Too Late to Fix This” to Having Real Conversations With Your Teen

Is it too late to reconnect with your teen?

If you’ve ever asked yourself that question (even in a whisper), this episode is for you.

Join Terri as she shares a powerful, hope-filled conversation that will help you shift from fear and regret to presence and connection—starting today.

You’ll hear the story of a mom who thought she had missed her chance with her daughter, until one simple call opened the door to real connection. Discover what changed for her—and how it can change for you, too.

• Why it’s not too late to rebuild trust and connection with your teen
  
  
  
  


• How fear of the future and regret from the past block present connection
  
  
  
  


• What Jesus meant when He said, “The time is now”—and why it matters for your family
  
  
  
  


• A powerful 3-step tool to hear God’s voice, find clarity, and take action
  
  
  
  


• Why living anchored in the moment can completely change how your teen responds to you

You’ll walk through a simple but transformative 3-step process (inspired by Jamie Winship’s identity work) to help you:

1. Tell the truth – Name your fear and lay it before God.
   
   
   
   


2. Ask: God, what do you want me to know? – Let Him speak directly to your heart.
   
   
   
   


3. Ask: God, what do you want me to do? – Follow His gentle lead in your parenting journey.
   
   

This practice is helping moms move from anxious and overwhelmed to calm, confident, and deeply connected.
