They’re Growing. Is Your Parenting?
A live 6-week parenting series
As your child becomes more independent, your influence can grow right along with them.
For parents of preteens and teens who want less conflict, better communication, and a stronger relationship as their children grow.
Begins September 22, 2026
$299 per household
Both parents welcome under one registration.
Does any of this sound familiar?
“They don't tell me anything anymore.”
Every conversation seems to become an argument.
You're unsure when to step in—and when to back off.
You want to hold high standards without damaging your relationship.
You worry that peers are becoming more influential than you are.
You're trying to prepare them for independence without losing connection.
If you're nodding at any of these, this series was created for you.
By the end of six weeks, you'll have practical tools to:
• Respond when your child shuts down
• Listen without needing to immediately fix, correct, or lecture
• Communicate so your child is more likely to keep talking
• Set boundaries while protecting the relationship
• Know when to step in and when to let your child solve the problem
• Move from managing behavior toward developing responsibility
• Repair after conflict instead of letting resentment linger
Your child may not be the only one being asked to grow.
Your parenting needs to grow, too.
What Parents Are Saying
Real experiences from parents who have put these principles into practice.
“My home is much more peaceful since applying the principles that Mindy teaches. I don’t second-guess myself as much now that I have a roadmap to follow when challenges come up with my kids.” —Jessica, mom of 4.
“One thing I have learned from Mindy is that I need to hold my boundaries more. That was hard to do before. I would either get mad that my kids were pushing me or I would give in just so I didn’t have to fight them anymore. Now I hold my boundaries with firm love and my kids are fighting me less and less.” —Kari, mom of teens
“I’ve learned how to reframe some specific parenting situations. For example, my preteen daughter had done a half-way job of sweeping the floor. When I talked to her about it, she said, “I’m just not good at sweeping.” Before working with Mindy, I would have gotten upset and told her to stop making excuses, but instead, I said, “Oh good, do you know what to do when you’re not good at something? You practice it more! Maybe you need to have the sweeping job every day this week so you can get good at it.” She didn’t like that answer, but she just said “Fine,” with a big sigh and went back and did the job right! I feel so much better as a mom when I keep my cool.” —Mary, mom of a preteen

Each week includes focused teaching, real-life examples, practical tools, and time for questions. Between sessions, you’ll apply what you’re learning in your own family and return with what worked, what didn’t, what surprised you and where you might still feel stuck.
Because a strategy that sounds simple on paper can feel very different with your child and your family dynamics.
Someday, they get to choose.
Someday, your children will choose how much they share with you.
Whether they ask for your perspective. Whether they come to you when life gets hard. How much of their life they invite you into.
The relationship you want later is being built in the ordinary moments happening now.
As control naturally decreases, your influence can still remain.
Hi, I’m Mindy.
I’m a Family Leadership Coach and mom of five grown children.
I know what it’s like to parent through the toddler years, the teenage years, and the transition into adulthood—and to learn along the way that good parenting has to grow as our kids do.
Today, I help parents combine connection with leadership so they can raise capable, responsible kids while building relationships that remain strong as their children become more independent.
My approach combines years of study and coaching with the lessons I’ve learned raising five very different children who are now thriving in young adulthood and beyond.
I don’t believe in perfect parenting. I believe in intentional parenting—and in learning how to lead our kids in ways that prepare them for a life of their own.
Ready to grow with them?
THEY’RE GROWING. IS YOUR PARENTING?
The relationship you want tomorrow starts with how you parent today.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
This series is designed primarily for parents of preteens and teens, when questions about independence, responsibility, communication, and influence often become especially important.
However, many of the principles can be applied earlier, and parents of younger children who want to prepare for the years ahead are welcome to attend.
-
You are not alone.
Many couples have different instincts, backgrounds, and ideas about parenting.
The principles in this series can give you a shared language for thinking about connection, boundaries, responsibility, and the long-term relationship you are building with your children.
You do not have to agree on every detail before you begin.
-
No.
Connection does not mean a lack of boundaries.
Children need leadership.
They need limits.
They need responsibility.
They need opportunities to experience appropriate consequences.
This series is about learning how to provide that leadership in ways that also protect trust and strengthen long-term influence.
-
You do not need to be in crisis.
In fact, this series is especially well suited for thoughtful parents who simply want to become more intentional before patterns become deeply established.
Nothing has to be terribly wrong for something to become better.
-
Life happens—especially when you are raising a family.
The teaching portion of each live session will be recorded and made available to registered participants for 7 days after the session.
The recordings are designed as a short-term way to catch up if you have to miss, not as a permanent course library.
The heart of this experience is still live participation, real-life application, and the opportunity to return each week with questions.
Because participants may share personal family situations during Q&A, some discussion portions may not be included in the recording in order to protect privacy.
-
Yes.
Each live session includes Q&A time.
That matters because parenting is personal.
You may understand a principle and still wonder:
But what does this look like with my child?
The live format gives you space to ask.
