In this episode, we’re diving into one of our most requested topics: creating meaningful connections with your kids as they grow into adulthood. We’ve talked about this before, but it’s a topic that never stops being relevant.

So many parents and adult children are navigating this transition, and we’re excited to share our insights, personal experiences, and some lessons we've learned along the way.

We discuss how to shift from a parent-child relationship into a friendship built on mutual respect, trust, and understanding. Plus, there may or may not be an impromptu Two Black Cadillacs singalong—because what’s a podcast without a little fun?

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
✅ The key mindset shifts needed to transition from parent to friend
✅ How to respect and support your adult children’s decisions (even when they differ from your own)
✅ The importance of celebrating your kids and showing up as their biggest cheerleader
✅ Why having your own fulfilling life as a parent helps strengthen your relationship
✅ How to create a space where your kids feel safe to share openly
✅ The role of boundaries, mutual respect, and leading with love
